Casey at the Bat

I like this guy’s style and outlook. He’s got a good handle on just about everything.

I’d feel better if his platform actually mentioned what I consider to be the most important indicator for freedom– yeah, I see the photo when you scroll to the bottom of him with a Fudd gun, but some of us need more than that.

Like more of this.

I included an overview of Vivek’s 2A position here. It’s unproven how serious he would be about matching the rhetoric with actions.

Meanwhile, Over in the ‘Gunshine State’…

Democrats end 30-year losing streak in Miami as Trump-backed candidate falls short – Higgins rides affordability push to Miami mayor’s office, backed by national Democratic machine [More]

See, thing is, Higgins wore citizen disarmament on her sleeve, but looking for Gonzalez to fire up the gun vote was an exercise in generalities, saying he was a “strong supporter of the Second Amendment” but going short on specifics, including on his campaign website, where he didn’t think it worth mentioning.

That and the younger generation of Cubans now embrace what their parents and grandparents fled:

I see some “gunfluencers” reveling in how Democrats are imploding and acting like the midterms will be a slam dunk for Republicans. Follow that line of thinking at all our peril, because as things stand now, people putting money on it are betting bigly that the House falls.

It doesn’t matter that the party platform makes no sense and that it’s candidates are subversives, traitors, and flat-out criminals– you can’t talk reason with No Kings ralliers motivated by prejudice, ignorance, and hate, and meanwhile, organizing gun owners is like herding cats.

Elephants Don’t Bray. Jackasses Do.

President warns state Sen Rodric Bray risks losing two potential GOP House seats by blocking congressional map [More]

You’d think someone who brags about an A+ NRA rating wouldn’t have voted against a “constitutional carry” bill.

Then again, why would an unachievable database of prohibited persons poison pill have been inserted, if not to kill the bill? Is that even a correct interpretation? And since it’s not in the law that eventually passed, what happened?

Cutting His Losses?

And if Trump does, will they turn on him?

The Second Amendment is the sole focus of this article, not any other policy issues or the reasons Trump wants to end Massie’s political career, nor Massie’s reasons for opposing parts of the president’s agenda.

You Get What You Pay For

In a withering critique of Brown’s handling of the case, Smith decried his fellow jurist as an “unskilled magician” caught in an “illogical straitjacket,” who was handing a victory to Democratic billionaire George Soros and California Gov. Gavin Newsom. [More]

Why did Trump nominate him? Why did Abbott stump for the guy? Why did Republicans as a bloc vote to confirm him?
