The Look at Me I’m On Your Side Act
Rep. Michael Cloud (R-TX) reintroduced a bill which would require the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to destroy firearm purchase records in their database. [More]
“Reintroduced”?

With Republicans Like These, Who Needs Democrats?
Texas GOP votes to censure Rep. Tony Gonzales over votes on same-sex marriage, guns and border security [Watch]
The last two are the ones I care about.
So do the Texas GOP and the RNC help fund and promote his campaigns?
NMSSA Legislative Update 3/1/23
Today’s legislative action got off to a wild start when the governor threatened to hold a special session to focus on gun control if the legislature doesn’t pass her priority bills. [More]

Full of Sound and Fury
Republican Texas Rep. Michael Cloud reintroduced a bill to require the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to destroy gun purchase records they have in their database as the agency cracks down on gun stores. [More]
Fine and good.
Wake me when there’s a Senate willing to pass it and a president willing to sign it.
You Weren’t Going to Need That Money You Worked For Anyway
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.”
NMSSA Legislative Alert 2/28/23
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.
We Have Some Good News and Some Bad News…
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]
You Don’t Know the Power of the Dark (Money) Side!
Half Empty or Half Full?
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. Then the process starts all over again! [More]
Let’s hope support by gun owners isn’t half-hearted, especially with the swing to the Democrats in Arizona.

A Crash Course in Politics
North Carolina House of Representatives Speaker Tim Moore, another state congressman, and Moore’s security were driving back to the state capital from an event when a vehicle repeatedly rammed into the back of them, the speaker’s spokeswoman said Thursday. [More]
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.
Playing to the Crowd
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.
Notes from the Democrat Freak Show
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…
Taking Care of Their Own
Rhyme or Reason
“[T]here was never any legitimate reason for this footage to remain secret.” [More]

Whoever they elect, they’ll get just what they voted for — focus on effects instead of causes, because to do otherwise would be political suicide.
