Notes from the Resistance
ATF official: Federal prosecutors turning a blind eye to straw purchasers, again – Events reminiscent of ATF’s “Operation Fast & Furious” scandal. [More]
Hey, if you want to blood dance, you first need blood.
Which invites two questions, one about the open border and the other about the imposition of prior restraints because people who have proven they can’t be trusted with a gun aren’t kept away from the rest of us.
I’ve established a dialog with Mr. Forcelli, have read his book, and will be releasing an interview and a review over the next few weeks.

It should be a straightforward enough process and you’d think the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Department of Justice would be on the same page, instead of pointing fingers, abdicating responsibilities, and just plain getting things wrong, especially considering how they increasingly hold Federal Firearms Licensees to “zero tolerance standards” over paperwork glitches. [More]
It took fear of getting spanked by the court, but they finally, grudgingly agreed to an appeals process.
The Second Amendment Foundation and a District Attorney in Pennsylvania have filed a federal lawsuit against Attorney General Merrick Garland, the heads of the FBI and ATF, and the U.S. Government, challenging the federal prohibition on gun ownership by medical marijuana users. [More]
There’s a Eugene Stoner joke in here somewhere…
Until such time as the smoke clears, I trust no one is making purchases with a credit card…?
Faith leaders and religious liberty advocates are up in arms over news the federal government encouraged banks and other financial institutions to search customers’ private accounts using the search term “religious texts.” [More]
So now they’re all upset because it’s their ox getting gored?
Hey, you never know when Merrick and Chris might neeed to ID some extremists.
Funny, they were quiet when they came for MAGA supporters and for gun owners…
Starting to feel like useful idiots yet, “faith community“…?
Probably not, because that would require them not being idiots.

AG GARLAND ON UVALDE SHOOTING: “Our children deserve better than to grow up in a country where an 18-year-old has easy access to a weapon that belongs on the battlefield, not in a classroom.” [More]
First off, they’re not “our children,” collectivist. They’re “my children” and “your children.” And we saw what depending on the “Only Ones” resulted in.
Remember what Vanderboegh asked about two nations divided by the answer to this fundamental question:
Does the government serve the people or do the people serve the government?
Hey, remember when Vichycon Leon H. Wolf, now managing editor of The Blaze, said Trump stood no chance in 2016 and advised Republicans to confirm Merrick Garland to the Supreme Court?
EXPLOSIVE: Liz Cheney’s J6 Committee DELETED OR DESTROYED Interview with Top Secret Service Official Robert Engel – That Likely Would Exonerate Trump! – WAR ROOM VIDEO [More]
If this wasn’t evidence of a criminal conspiracy at the highest levels it would be the Department of Justice using all the resources at its disposal to uncover the truth instead of Steve Bannon.
Funny, how quiet the DSM is about this…
Here’s a question I don’t know the answer to, and a cursory search shows it’ll be quicker if I just ask somebody who knows:
Is there a records retention law binding on congressional committees with criminal penalties for disregarding?

Jack Smith Wants Judge to Exclude Trump’s January 6 Evidence From Trump’s January 6 Trial [More]
Reminds me of the Wayne Fincher trial, where the judge wouldn’t let him argue the Constitution and Second Amendment…
Cut through all the crap and what we have here is administration loyalists prosecuting Joe Biden’s political opponent on the premise that HE’s the one interfering with elections.

Meet Lawyer Michael Dreeben, The Man Behind Three Major Anti-Trump Operations [More]
Now all we need is an uncompromised Justice Department.
Meaning we need the Republicans not to blow ’24 and play hardball if they don’t. And for Trump to stop being stupid about who he admits into his inner circle.

Lawless FBI Notifies Blaze Journalist Steve Baker He Will Be Charged Next Week for His Actions as a Reporter at the J6 Protests [More]
The Nazi snitches at “Sedition Hunters” are cowards who hide behind anonymity. Who is dumb enough to believe reporting “crimes” is their only agenda, and that they don’t have shadow backers who would make their credibility suspect if they were known?

The justices agreed to review a lower court’s ruling that revived a charge against three defendants accused of obstructing an official proceeding… Over 300 people have been charged by the Justice Department with obstructing an official proceeding in connection with the Jan. 6 riot. [More]
If Biden’s motion ultimately prevails, other categories of prohibited persons become vulnerable to challenge, as well as records required to be kept by Federal Firearms Licensees, which themselves have no historical counterpart. The possibilities for reclaiming rights seem boundless. [More]
It would be deliciously ironic if, in saving his own skin, this degenerate saved ours…

Quick “woke” etiquette question: Is it an aggression in this case to say “woman“?
“Based on the facts and the law, if Hunter’s last name was anything other than Biden, the charges in Delaware, and now in California, would have not been brought,” Lowell said… [More]
Ever the victim, eh?
What if his last name was Taylor?
My spider sense is telling me Democrats know Joe’s jig is up and are upping the signals to his inner circle that it’s time for him to go.
