Notes from the Resistance
The brief recalls how Congress enacted the Gun Control Act of 1968 pursuant to the Commerce Clause with no intention of discouraging or eliminating the private ownership or use of firearms by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes. [More]
That’s not how the bill’s author felt:
ALL “gun control” is just another incremental step to the end goal– citizen disarmament. We don’t do ourselves any favors by believing otherwise and arguing that in court.
A police officer who visited Russo’s home to investigate allegedly reported that the dog was stiff, barely breathing, and appeared to be uncomfortable. The officer obtained a warrant and had Tipper euthanized. [More]
In Massachussetts, “Only Ones” are also “qualified” to file an ERPO petition.
Hey, take the dogs first, due process later, right?
It’s for the greater good…

Judge Brian Lovell was indicted on eight counts of deadly conduct discharge of a firearm. He was arrested and charged after an incident in Austin, Texas in 2023. He was arrested for reportedly firing a gun at five cars, then ramming his SUV into the back of a woman’s car twice. [More]

Detective Gary Staab had wrongly obtained the warrant to search Johnson’s home because he did not point out that the app’s information is not precise and provides only a general location where a phone could be, the lawsuit said. [More]
Guess what the very first thing was that popped up when I went to check out the technology:
That’s some police work, fellas.

A Lincoln man will spend the next two decades behind bars for possessing a machine gun and marijuana. [More]
Just like the Founders intended.
Meanwhile, a Satanic thrill killer who has shown no remorse is out after 14, thanks to the same Democrats who want to disarm you.
And Hunter Biden, of course…

The Supreme Court on Monday tossed out a Colorado court ruling that barred Donald Trump from appearing on the state’s Republican presidential primary ballot. The ruling means that no other state can bar Trump, or any other candidate, from a presidential ballot by invoking the insurrection clause in the Constitution. [More]
Plea to Pres. Trump: As all the treasonous lawfare has shown, these people will stop at nothing. Now that this door has been slammed shut, some are no doubt plotting more extreme measures of exclusion. Double your security and most of all, LISTEN TO THEM.

Cooper wrote that he “recognizes the paramount importance of a free press in our society” and the critical role of confidential sources in investigative journalism. But the judge said the court “also has its own role to play in upholding the law and safeguarding judicial authority.” [More]
I know Mike and I were committed to being jailed before revealing our sources. You’re just going to have to trust me when I tell you that people have no idea what went on behind the scenes of this, and the fears that went with it.

A federal judge is upholding new Arizona laws that would require registered voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship in order for their votes to be counted. [More]
Why is this even an issue? Who but a genocidal dom…Demestic enemy would be against that?
And how many who would have it otherwise are “gun sense candidates”?
Each of the plaintiffs had their conviction vacated, set aside, or dismissed, and their right to possess firearms restored, by the jurisdiction in which they were convicted … Even so, California has acted to permanently deny Linton, Stewart, and Jones the right to possess or own firearms, solely on the basis of their original convictions… Summary judgment is granted in favor of plaintiffs on the Second Amendment claim. [More]
They meet all MY criteria.

Prediction: They will issue a ruling addressing the minutia of the procedural rules and punt this back down to the lower courts. They will avoid the issue entirely and thus free and exonerate themselves of holding anyone in the FedGov accountable. [More]
With all the video “gunfluencers” out there getting our hopes up that Cargill will be the beginning of the end for ATF’s “rulemaking” shenanigans, Herschel gives his reasons for believing we could end up disappointed.
Man, I sure hope he’s wrong.
But he’s never not thoughtful.
