Notes from the Resistance
April 28th is the last day to register to vote in the May primary election. [More]
I wonder how much of not having more good choices to vote for stems from not being personally involved in the fight while it’s still easy, compared to what it could be like when the choice becomes more existential.
Democrats win Virginia redistricting fight, threatening Republican House majority [More]
There’s plenty more I have to say about this that will require research for an article, so I know what I’m doing this weekend.
Omar’s amended financial disclosure slashed her reported net worth from as high as $30M to under $95K [More]
Think of the scarier implications of her making decisions about our money if she wasn’t a crook.
BFA-PAC endorses Vivek Ramaswamy for Ohio governor [More]
I guess they think the idea of Heritage Ohioans is loony.

A Rebuttal to Cam Edwards’ Article ‘Should 2A Groups Make Opposition to Legal Immigration an Issue? A Response to David Codrea’ [More]
By disparaging thoughts on what a “pathway to citizenship” means for future “gun votes,” widely followed “gun rights influencers” are discouraging even discussing the issue.
Told ya. May she be as successful with this as she was at accomplishing nothing over at 97percent.
And here she is praising a ‘No Kings’ rally. Her journey to the dark side is complete.
Be interesting to see her gun platform when she gets a campaign website up.

Texas Democrat James Talarico Said Having Police in Schools Fuels ‘Culture of Violence’ in Newly Resurfaced Audio [More]
Why is it every time I see this lunatic I picture Elliot Page?
If it ends up being between him and Cornyn, well, this is how the system keeps gunvoters in line.
And look what else Texans can elect. Good grief.

Samuel Ronan, a former Democratic state and national candidate, attempted to run as a Republican in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District against GOP incumbent Rep. Mike Carey. To do so, he signed a declaration of candidacy — under penalty of election falsification — swearing he was a member of the Republican Party. [More]
A Second Amendment Roadmap For The Next Attorney General [More]
So, naturally, we need a “Second Amendment leader” to tell us why we’re expecting too much and it just can’t be done.

Vivek says ““The idea of a heritage American is about as loony as anything the woke left has actually put up.”
Heather Hill endorsed Kasich. (Then again, so did PVF.)
And that they don’t have Amy as an “F” makes me wonder just how lazy these PVF “researchers” are. Then again, I learned a long time ago how “reliable” their grades are.
If you’re a 2A voter, Casey’s the real deal.
Colorado Springs Man Sentenced for Hate Crime Hoax That Probably Flipped the City’s Mayoral Race [More]
Think anyone who voted based on that will admit they’re a sucker?
Yemi’s one of those Nigerian immigrants I just talked about.
And talked about earlier.

2026 BFA-PAC Grades and Endorsements for the Ohio Primary [More]
Nothing to say about the main event?
In a way, the silence is a positive– it may show the leadership is aware of member sentiment, that not all are kneejerk swallowing the establishment line, and that they want to keep their options open.
Putsch Responds to Firearms News’ 2A Inquiry [More]
He walks the talk.
Also: There’s a real difference for Ohio gun owners to consider in the primary.
The April 2026 issue of Firearms News, featuring my articles “Disparaging Armed Citizens Undermines Trump Administration’s Credibility” (p. 22) and “Cekada Heading ATF Still a No-Win Scenario for Gun Owners” (p. 26) is now available at diverse, equitable, and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic.

Anybody here not realize Thune is a weasel in a long line of weasels…?

Trump Expected to Endorse Ken Paxton in Texas Senate Runoff Against RINO John Cornyn [More]
I figured that’s what the 99.3% desperation ploy was all about.
Just understand his has everything to do with poltical calculation.
And this egg hasn’t hatched yet.

All the critics need to do to prove this wrong is to come up with numbers that credibly refute those given. [More]
You can’t rebut contentions by avoiding them. It’s past time this argument was more widely noticed in the “pro-gun community.”
Virginia Dems’ Gun Control Blitzkrieg Should be a Warning to Gun Owners Nationwide [More]
It should have been a warning before the election.
Who thinks the necessary coordination and participation we didn’t see at the state level will manifest itself nationwide to thwart gerrymandering?
Andy M. points out that some of my critics will not be happy with Mark W. Smith saying this (7:40 in):
[We] really need for a whole bunch of reasons including to continue to push that most important issue which is even which is the most important issue when it comes to our second amendment right to keeps and that is the immigration issue kicking out the people shouldn’t be here. kicking out the people that may be illegally voting, kicking out the people that have no interest in the right to
keep and bear arms.
I’m working on a rebuttal to their deliberate, and often hostile avoidance of the facts. I’m delighted to see a much more influential voice than mine picking up this banner, and will make sure to cite this in my sequel to this.
