Don’t Cry for Me Argentina

President of Argentina Javier Milei signed a decree Wednesday broadening gun rights in the country by allowing Argentine civilians to purchase and possess semiautomatic weapons for the first time in 30 years. [More]

It’s not uninfringed, but it’s a damn sight better than it was.

Tangentially-Related UPDATE

The US government skyrocketed the USAID budget for Brazil while Bolsonaro was there. Not to help Brazilians economically, but to flood the political opposition in Brazil with money to try to take him out. [More]

Unsurprisingly…

No New Thing Under the Sun

Twenty-five year old Deja Foxx is vying for more than a seat in Congress. She’s looking to be part of a root-and-branch overhaul of the Democratic Party. [More]

If she’s the next “It Girl” for fresh new ideas, how come she’s pushing the same old ones on guns?

“We see gun violence as an intersectional issue,” Foxx said. “We want to see common-sense regulation that will keep us safe in school.” She says that means banning military-grade weaponry and not arming teachers. “The Second Amendment was written in a time when those guns weren’t even conceived,” Foxx said.

And her economic platform is even older school.

New Jersey Governor’s Race Gives Gun Owners a Choice

Being one of the worst states in the union for eviscerating the Second Amendment, there’s much to be said on having the ear of a governor with veto power. [More]

True, hardly a perfect one. Still, the differences between the two are many, and this is New Jersey, after all.

Let’s Not Go Celebrating a Red Wave Just Yet

Gingrich warns ‘very profound cultural civil war’ underway, says Democrats doubling down on ‘weird values’ – Former speaker says Americans increasingly siding with Trump on cultural issues [More]

One can only hope he’s got reliable data to back that up and that this isn’t just Stupid Party happy talk. Because my experience with Democrats tells me Edwin Edwards gave his constituents way too much credit, and today he could get away with strangling the girl and boy on live TV and not lose a vote if his opponent were Trump.

Libertad y Orden, Opposite Day ‘Progressive’-Style

The Attorney General’s Office, which is investigating the shooting, said the senator received two gunshot wounds in the attack, which wounded two others. The statement from the office said a 15-year-old boy was arrested at the scene with a firearm. [More]

But…but…but licensing, registration, age restrictions, no guns at political events, no carrying in Bogotá…

Yeah, about that…

No wonder the political left pushes “gun control”…

Speaking of Perpetuating Negative Stereotypes…

Carville accuses Jewish donors of abandoning Democrats for GOP because they just want their ‘f—ing tax cut’ [More]

So younger Dems are joining the “River to the Sea” crowd and now the older Dem establishment is dusting off a Nazi meme.

Funny… anybody see ADL condemning him and SPLC adding him to their “Hate Watch” list?

If They Weren’t Such Racists, We Wouldn’t Have to Make $#!+ Up

Colorado Springs’ First Black Mayor Implicated In Hate-Crime Hoax At Federal Trial… Mobolade, who is Nigerian, won the election as a left-leaning independent in the traditional Republican stronghold in 2023 after the n-word was scrawled on one of his campaign signs and a cross set ablaze in front of it. [More]

It’s like Democrat voters are oblivious to what everybody else knows about.

Oh, my ribs. They ache with mirth.

War in Heaven

He’s basically following the increment agenda.

Before uncorking the champagne and anticipating midterm bliss, remember how intractably stupid most Democrat voters are. They’ll still come out against Republicans.

And while he may have screwed his own pooch, it’s not like his follower are exactly rational, and won’t dig in and double down. He may get booted from an official Party position, but don’t look for his influence to go away.

Plotting Her Revenge

Representative Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Alex Witt Reports” that the Democratic Party will take the majority in the 2026 midterms and investigate President Donald Trump and his family. [More]

That ain’t the half of what these political sociopaths have planned.

As I’ve warned, never underestimate the focused stupidity of Democrat voters and the Republican preponderance for blowing all advantages. Act like we’re going to lose the midterms, because we may.

And There Was War in Heaven

The Dems Declare War on the Obama Boys [More]

Add in Hogg’s Children’s Crusade and it’s like Party Elders are getting the Biden treatment.

As fun as it is to watch them apparently implode, never underestimate the focused stupidity of Democrat voters and the Republican preponderance for blowing all advantages. Act like we’re going to lose the midterms, because we may.
