Are Democrats ever going to learn that a feral government is like wildfire? [More]
The string-pullers know that and are counting on it. Those who would control all are out of control and want it like that.

Notes from the Resistance
What Trump Says He Will Do on Day One [More]
I could have sworn he created a very public expectation about guns:
“Every single Biden attack on gun owners and manufacturers will be terminated on my very first week back in office, perhaps my first day.”
“[S]tarting the minute that Crooked Joe shuffles his way out of the White House at noon on Inauguration Day, we will sack the anti-gun fanatic Steve Dettelbach … and replace him with an ATF director who respects the sacred rights to keep and bear arms.”
OK, Dettelbach sacked himself, but we’ll have to see if his replacement is a priority, and what difference he will make.
“Under a Trump Administration, all of those Biden disasters get ripped up and torn out my first week, but maybe my first day in office,” the president declared “Okay maybe my first.”
No Surprise: Tulsi Gabbard Flip-Flops on Spying in Desperate Bid to Save Nomination… (REALLY EASY IQ Test: Are you surprised by any Gabbard flip-flop?)… (REALLY TOUGH IQ Test: Has Gabbard actually changed her position on anything, ever?) [More]
John Thune Charts New Path in Senate: ‘The Time Has Come to Begin Executing’ Trump’s Mandate [More]
Says the guy who who joined John Cornyn and other Vichycons in supporting Harry Reid by breaking the Ted Cruz/Mike Lee Filibuster of the Anti-gun ObamaCare Law, and in voting to confirm anti-gun Merrick Garland as Attorney General.

Despite defeat, the left still schemes [More]
And make sure you read the guns quote, because they mean it.
You’ve read Paul’s book, right?
No…?
Man Photographed with Would-Be Trump Assassin Ryan Routh Receives Presidential Medal of Freedom From Joe Biden [More]
And remember: Trump is an avatar.
Tell me Biden’s handlers didn’t know exactly what they were doing.

Cornyn and senators tell ATF director no new policies before Trump takes over [More]
They know any new rule will require a comment period extending into the new administration, which can kill it, but it’s a way to make gun owners think they’re doing something for them.
But enforce existing Intolerable Acts, right, Mr. Bipartisan Safer Communities Act?

The number of individuals with direct access to the president will be more limited when Donald Trump takes office in two weeks, as incoming chief of staff Susie Wiles seeks to streamline the new West Wing operation. [More]
So, where will Gun Owners for Trump stand? Or have they served their purpose?

“I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust nationwide competitive process,” he said. [More]
So Fidelito hasn’t actually resigned…
Just sayin’. I’ve seen a lot of movies where the villain everyone thought was toast springs back up and attacks…

Outrage as Biden set to award Hillary Clinton, George Soros with Presidential Medal of Freedom [More]
Now he’s just being in-your-face “F— you” about it. But it’s not like the award hasn’t already been devalued and debased.
Including Denzel Washington, who has taken pains to be apolitical in his public comments, is a subtle form of extortion. How could he decline without the left destroying his career?

Happy New Year! And with 2025 already here, that means that the New Mexico Legislature will soon be in session once again. Pre-filing of bills for the 2025 session is already underway. [More]
Another year, another salvo…
Last month, Representatives August Pfluger (R-TX) and Jared Golden (D-ME) introduced the bipartisan “Protecting Americans’ Right to Silence Act of 2024” (PARTS Act), H.R. 10145, which seeks to modernize and clarify the federal definition of firearm suppressors under the Gun Control Act. [More]
So Republicans help Gungrabber Golden burnish his reputation with a bill that has a 1% chance of being enacted, meaning it costs Democrats nothing but buys them all kinds of Fuddwill and “gunfluencer” kudos…

Trump hails Florida Dem’s decision to ditch party, join GOP [More]
I’m trying to figure out how including this cow who has pledged to “stand up to the NRA and fight for a ban on military style assault rifles and the high capacity ammunition that make them so lethal” will help…
Anybody else getting a Professor Harold Hill of politics vibe…?

“There is no way that I want California to accidentally help these extremists trigger a constitutional convention where they, you know, rewrite the Constitution to restrict voting rights, to eliminate reproductive health access and so forth,” said Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco). [More]
Scott Wiener calling anyone an extremist is rich.
That said, I don’t want “our” side calling for a Con-Con, either.
And back anything that thwarts an expanded Newscum dystopia…
