Thanks for Nothing

Retired FBI boss says agency has lost independence, been co-opted by liberal DOJ ideologues [More]

He just couldn’t say anything about it until his pension checks were assured.

That he “remains friends with Chris Wray” tells me any “solutions” he backs will make noise and nothing more. After all, who calling the shots in government went to prison after the Church Committee wrapped up?

Hatchet Job

The Supreme Court May Kick Off 2023 With a Huge Gun Rights Ruling – Without oral argument or full briefing, the case could take a hatchet to New York’s new concealed carry law—and countless more nationwide. [More]

So why does Mark Joseph Stern have his panties in a wad?

Oh…

Choke Point

NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, condemned the U.S. Senate’s confirmation of Martin J. Gruenberg as Chair and Member of the Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Gruenberg led the FDIC from 2011-2018, during which the Obama administration conducted the illegal Operation Choke Point scheme to deny banking services to firearm businesses. NSSF opposed his confirmation in the strongest terms as he has already demonstrated a lack of respect for the law and unparalleled disdain for the Constitutionally-protected firearm and ammunition industry.

Confirmed by voice vote to protect the Vichycons from accountability. Any gun owner familiar with the Hughes Amendment knows the type of treason that allows the self-serving tyrannical bastards to get away with.

See any Senate Republicans demanding to end that practice and record all votes?

Never Mind

Received via email from Tully Rinckey PLLC:

After careful consideration and over a year after it was implemented, the Department of Defense has decided to no longer enforce the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for service members. Despite the fact that less than 100 service members died from COVID-19 since the pandemic started, many active duty, Guard and Reserve members who refused the COVID-19 vaccine faced removal from the service. This impacted military readiness and those who faced removal now need to understand their rights and how they can legally proceed with the reinstatement process. [More]

Or in the words of Emily Litella:

I guess that’s one less concern for gun-owning servicemembers to worry about, but the questions that remain are “Why the sudden big turnaround?” and “Why haven’t there been screaming headlines and demands for answers?”

Messing with the Wrong Elites

The removal of Denise George comes just days after she filed a lawsuit against JPMorgan Chase in New York and accused the company of helping Epstein finance the illegal exploitation of women and children in the U.S. Virgin Islands and beyond. Gov. Albert Bryan Jr. did not provide a reason for relieving George of her duties… [More]

You mean the Democrat governor…?

I don’t suppose powerful connections have anything to do with it…

The Stupid… It Burns…

Read Second Amendment Literally: Ban Making and Selling Guns [More]

I know ad hominem attacks are a logical fallacy, but the stunning ignorance on display here, beginning with the presumption that the Bill of Rights defines what citizens “may” do, makes it OK to dismiss this writer and those oxymoronic “true liberals” swallowing his pseudointellectual bilge as fools.

It’s certainly not worth anybody’s time to try and engage in debate with them.

Totally Unsurprisingly, Brazil Begins Gun Bans Ahead of Lula Inauguration

In the meantime, returning to the leftist playbook, look for Brazilians who question the election and defy tyrannical disarmament to be attacked and marginalized as extremists, criminals, racists, and “deplorables,” just like here. And just like here, they’re picking a fight to the finish with people who are proud of their heritage, vested in freedom, and not likely to grovelingly surrender their birthrights to their moral inferiors.

History repeats itself. And in more ways than one.

Do As We Say

DHS Did Not Consistently Comply with National Instant Criminal Background Check System Requirements…DHS has more than 6.4 million incomplete NICS records… [More]

And what happens when we don’t comply with their rules?

Still, maybe we’ve got registration all wrong and the safest place for gun records is with the government…

Constructive Mourning

On January 4, 2022, Parkland father Andrew Pollack’s 501c3 “Meadows Movement” will be donating eight backpacks, each containing an AR pistol, to Florida’s Bradford County Sheriff’s Office for use in Bradford County schools. [More]

As opposed to the types who process their grief by attacking everyone else’s rights…
