All you really need to know:
If you think Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, wait ’til this guy loses. Don’t be surprised to see him become a Lincoln Project-style useful idiot talking head for the Democrat propaganda machine along their lines of Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.

Must Be an Election Year
Today, Rep. Lauren Boebert (CO-04) introduced the Freedom from Taxes Act, landmark legislation that fully repeals the remaining excise taxes imposed on machine guns and destructive devices under the National Firearms Act (NFA). The bill also eliminates the Special Occupational Tax (SOT) on Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs), delivering significant tax relief to law-abiding gun owners and America’s firearms industry. [More]

The fourth-term congressman, who lost decisively to state Rep. Steve Toth, said baseless attacks about his alleged insider trading and gun stances fueled the upset… Rep. Dan Crenshaw blamed unfounded attacks and a culture of misinformation … saying in an interview that the “power of clickbait” proved too much to overcome. [More]
Right. Couldn’t have been what preceded those “attacks”…
Kingmaker
Trump has given Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton his “Complete and Total Endorsement” in the Republican runoff against Sen. John Cornyn, calling Paxton a “true MAGA Warrior” and specifically citing his commitment to “Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.” [More]
Just remember to stay on his good side, Ken. Because he once had “terrific” things to say about another guy:
No tears for Cornyn, just nobody think Paxton comes without warts.
With Massie’s engineered loss, Trump is showing any Party doubters how he can clear the board and replace the pieces. It’ll be interesting to see what events capture the public attention before November and how those play with the general electorate, or if Democrats all hate Trump so much they’ll more widely greenlight communists.
And then see what Trump’s plans are for John Thune after that.

A Matter of Priorities

Timing is Everything
Massie’s ex-girlfriend alleges he arranged her Capitol Hill job, then offered $5,000 to drop termination suit – Allegations surface as Massie faces a bruising Kentucky primary challenge from Trump-backed Ed Gallrein [More]
I guess it’s easier than debating him.
And with the critical implications of these allegations, does no one find this curious and worth investigating?
Who is he? What are his interests? How has the media vetted him for credibility?
While Rome Burns
But…but…but she’s a Gun Sense Candidate (as well as a radical communist sympathizer, so figure that one out).
It looks like Spencer Pratt thinks “You can never have enough guns in your house.”
Don’t worry, our illustrious leaders are hard at work making political ads like this illegal (anybody see a disclaimer or AI/satire notice?). Figures Brian Fitzpatrick would be on board to give Democrats the fraudulent claim of being “bipartisan.”

Not a Good Look
They seem like reasonable questions for voters to want answers to.
Then again, I thought all mine were, too, and while he answered some, he ignored others.
It didn’t have to be this way.
And once more, NRA shows it has learned nothing:
They’re still smarting over the last time they tried to f_ him over with a fraudulent replacement because they wanted to insert Fix NICS into the reciprocity bill.
Next time NRA begs you for money, tell them you’re sending it to Massie instead.

And the Winner Is…
Casey Putsch lost to Vivek Ramaswamy. [More]
I figured he would, but just because you’re outnumbered doesn’t mean you’re wrong.
Barring unforeseen upheaval, I give Ohio 10 years to go solid blue. And our “gun rights leaders” will have played a big part in that.
And talk about a relevant UPDATE
Secretary of State Frank LaRose is prohibited by Article 15, Section 4 of the Constitution of Ohio from certifying Vivek Ganapathy Ramaswamy’s results in the Ohio Republican Party nomination for Governor of the state until he confirms he is a Citizen of the United States. [More]
I guess the idea of “Heritage Americans” doesn’t seem so “loony” to him about now. Wouldn’t this be a hoot if Casey won by default? Until Swamp Vichycons started helping Amy Acton by sabotaging him because he ain’t in their Big Club…
UPDATE
Frank won’t know until the promised lawsuit:
Based on reports from the May 2026 Ohio primary, there is no evidence that Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose refused to verify Vivek Ramaswamy’s win or questioned his legal citizenship.
