Hemorrhaging losses, the Fed’s problems are now the taxpayer’s [More]
They always have been.
That those calling to audit the fed are either ridiculed or ignored should tell us everything we need to know about our “representatives” and the “watchdog press.”
Today, the Governor held a press conference to promote her anti-gun and anti-freedom agenda. But her displeasure at the tabling of SB171 yesterday was noticeable, so she is doubling down on pushing for her slate of anti-gun bills. As a result, two bills were scheduled late today for hearings tomorrow. [More]
Meaning today. Zoom links included.
A handful of House and Senate bills are beginning to work their way through the state’s legislative process, as the Ohio Legislature’s 135th General Assembly gets underway. The first three, as currently written, would reduce firearms regulations and expand Second Amendment rights. [More]
This week marks the halfway point in the 2023 legislative session. “Crossover” refers to the transfer of bills between the House of Representatives and the Senate. All House bills that have survived the committee process will now be considered by the Senate while all Senate bills that are still in play are headed to the House.

Coincidentally, with quotation marks, if you like, this was the day after the House voted to repeal handgun purchase permits. In any case, it’s fair to question if this was garden variety ‘roid rage or if he was targeted
Check out the cheesy excuse Rep. Michael Wray gave for voting against the bill he originally sponsored– no doubt his earlier feigned support was to sucker the Fudds at election time. What a weasel.
Ultimately, there is no such thing as a “pro-gun Democrat.” Besides, it’s never been about guns anyway.
Alabama congressman’s bill would make AR-15 ‘the National Gun of America’ [More]
He knows it doesn’t have a chance in hell with a Democrat Senate and Biden, so forgive me if this feels like a self-serving and disingenuously patronizing headline ploy, which is unfortunate because it detracts from an otherwise pretty good record on RKBA and on the greatest political threat against it.
Spiritual adviser and bestselling self-help author Marianne Williamson is making a second straight run for the White House and taking aim at President Biden. [More]
“Why are we so violent?” she asks.
“We”…?
That’s an old grabber tactic, stumping for a totalitarian monopoly on arms by assigning collective guilt for the predations of an identifiable few.
What kind of cat lady/Demanding Mom/The View watcher would someone have to be to seek spiritual advice from this self-deluded charlatan? That question kind of answers itself…
“[T]here was never any legitimate reason for this footage to remain secret.” [More]

“Over half a million dollars is missing from the New Georgia Project, a discrepancy experts say is grounds for state and federal investigations into the Stacey Abrams-founded group and the woman Abrams tapped to run it. [More]
Jeez, if she can’t manage that, imagine what she’d do to the economy of the whole United Earth.

On Friday the 17th, the House Judiciary Committee heard both HB100, the 14-day waiting period bill, and HB101, the ban on the sale of semiautomatic rifles and registration of currently owned ones. [More]
The session is halfway over and heating up.
Asian Americans have long been the lowest gun-owning demographic in the US, however, a recent string of mass shootings is changing that. [More]
Yeah, well, there’s a problem with that:

U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) led a group of 25 additional Senate colleagues in reintroducing the Hearing Protection Act (HPA). The HPA, S. 401, would reclassify suppressors to regulate them like a regular firearm. The measure would benefit Idaho’s recreational gun users and provide them better access to hearing protection equipment. [More]

A Bill That Would Require Legislators to Know What the Hell They Are Talking About [Watch]
Nah. I see two basic problems:

Because theatrical gestures are accepted by shallow thinkers as substitutes for meaningful actions?
Forgive me if I read the name “George Santos” and wonder if self-serving motives trump sincerity and why anyone should believe a chronic and habitual liar.
And forgive me if I wonder why Rep. Anna Paulina Luna didn’t see fit to even mention the right to keep and bear arms in her campaign platform.
