The Plot Thickens

…”leverage [a legitimacy crisis] for big structural reform”… [More]

ICYMI…

Yes, I still say vote.

Just be as prepared as you can if it turns out to have been a minor waste of your time, because designed and manufactured crisis management presuming claims against rights endowed by our Creator has no legitimacy.

Guess if that happens we’ll all get to see what we’re made of.

What We Want vs. What We’ve Got

Vivek Ramaswamy has a message for BFA supporters [Watch]

I have my reasons for being wary (and for having supported a different candidate in the primary).

That said, the ultimate issue for me is 2A. If Vivek wins, I believe he will be marginally more persuadable than Amy Acton will be on issues where we diverge.

When he does, I’ll do what I can to push back, noting my strongest opposition will be from myopic/deliberately indifferent “gun influencers.”

Every Fixture Tells a Story

CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour leaving network after a storied career of 43 years [More]

“Storied” as in “making them up“?

[T]he AR-15. it is the only weapon that is designed to kill, not just wound. It is designed to kill.

Remember when Alan Korwin brilliantly refuted a hoplophobic New Yorker hack on her show, and instead of being an impartial moderator, she was the tag team’s lead attack dog in a piece pejoratively presented as “Gun Crazy in America“ ?

So… with the Iranian/British foreign national influencer of Americans leaving, who’s going to be the new Soros mouthpiece?

Well… bye.

You don’t hate the DSM enough.

The Few, the Proud

‘One sergeant suggested I should be shot’: Inside the ‘Penal Platoon’ hell Marines found themselves in after refusing COVID jab [More]

I remember when the idea of a dishonorable discharge was being floated around, and I got scolded by a reader for having “my tin foil hat on too tight” when I pointed out such a conviction would be a disqualifier from possessing a gun.

Justin Time

A New Jersey attorney and former municipal official who made waves during his debate with Sen. Cory Booker, D-N. J., said his unscripted style may be the secret sauce to making history and ending a Republican Senate drought in New Jersey that stretches back more than half a century. [More]

“How is he on the Second Amendment?” you ask…

I’m Gonna Make YOU a STAR!

I wonder if this had anything to do with it:

Both were born male and identified as female, officials said.

We’re the Only Ones with Blown Careers Enough

A federal judge in Texas sentenced a sheriff’s deputy from Webb County, Texas (Laredo), to 20 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman during a traffic stop. [More]

What he did says something about the mentality, doesn’t it? Now juxtapose that against the department’s public posturing about it’s program to “empower women by providing valuable self-defense techniques, promoting personal safety, and raising awareness about domestic violence.”

I have a feeling he’s about to give as good as he gets… a lot…. now that the power dynamic has changed.

Our Friends Across the Aisle

Oh, look, suddenly “Defund the Police” leftists “Back the Blue”! [More]

Hey, if we can’t believe a “Proud childless cat mom and liberal democrat,” who can we believe?

Note where this insistence on “rule of law” against “insurrection” leads to in the ensuing discussion:

And by “Donald Trump,” they mean you.

Walkin’ on Gunshine

Gun rights group files lawsuit against West Orange police departments over risk protection order policies [More]

That they have to do it over technicalities like using “required” forms shows how far we have to go.

I might also ask where the hell are DeSantis and Uthmeier on this, and why the heavy lifting has to be done by the victims instead of by officials sworn to the Constitution.
