Notes from the Resistance
This is why it’s fruitless to “debate” with with obnoxious, self-entitled fanatics who are too stupid to realize how wrong they are, and who presume to teach but don’t even belong in the class without passing the prerequisites.
Has the loudmouthed clownette “proudly” ID’d herself on social media yet?

Because he spoke before he was inaugurated, giving him the power to act, Trump alerted the Deep State that he represented an existential threat to its survival. The bottom line is that the Deep State cannot afford for Trump to become president on January 20, 2025. [More]
You might want to play this in the background, just to set the mood for how insane it all is.
All that talk from Democrats about the peaceful transition of power and Joe Biden greeting him cordially is more than them just poking him for Jan. 6, it’s for plausible deniability. Add in domestic enemies embedded in the Secret Service, an assasination attempt where they left vulnerabilities anyone could exploit, and leaking his golf schedule for a second attempt, and there is nothing they won’t stop at.
Then follow that up with their manufactured external existential threat.
These are the most dangerous times we’ve ever lived through — so far.
Maybe we’ll get a chance to see just how smart the Founders were with the Second Amendment.

What’s the Road to Hell paved with again?
I guess that serves some purposes better then “Moron tries to punish everyone else for his own cConstituency’s bad behaviors.”
Or “Lickspittle media helps politican mask his own incompetence at finding real solutions in order to convince anyone dumb enough to vote for him that he’s got a viable plan”…

How is it possible to do any part of the job without infringing on someone’s rights?
There’s no such thing as a good overseer. Some are just less cruel with their illegitimate power than others.
Ted Olson, 9/11, Citizens United, Bush v. Gore & The Importance of A Great Solicitor General [Watch]
That would be the same Ted Olson who argued against the Supreme Court hearing the Emerson case, asked the Supreme Court not to intervene in the Haney case, and argued against “restoring” a gun owner’s rights in the Bean case.
I don’t set out to pick arguments with influencers. It’s just that sometimes I hear things that trigger my inner Fletcher.

Another Big Win for the Second Amendment…Huge and good news out of the US Senate today and Sen. John Thune has been selected the new Senate Majority Leader. [Watch]

Between this and the constant defeatism, I’m just not inclined to link to this guy any more.

Should this Court decline to grant certiorari to consider the constitutionality of Maryland’s assault weapons ban where (1) that ban is consistent with this Court’s recognition in District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), that jurisdictions may ban “weapons that are most useful in military service—M-16 rifles and the like”; (2) the Fourth Circuit faithfully applied New York State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n v. Bruen, 597 U.S. 1 (2022), to conclude that Maryland’s law is consistent with this Nation’s historical tradition of “regulating those weapons that were invented for offensive purposes and were ultimately proven to pose exceptional dangers to innocent civilians,” Pet. App. 69a; and (3) there is no need to resolve a conflict among the lower courts? [More]
Translation: Tyrannical Maryland Democrats want the Supreme Court to turn a blind eye to the state’s willingness to imprison and/or kill citizens for defying unconstitutional diktats and claiming their birthrights.

A federal judge has ruled that a constitutional challenge to New York state’s ban on selling bulletproof vests to civilians can move forward. The ruling by U.S. District Court Judge John Sinatra Jr. rejected a motion from state Attorney General Letitia James and other New York officials to dismiss a challenge, ruling the plaintiffs have standing to sue the state over the restrictions.

As the saying goes, ‘A right delayed is a right denied,’ and the state has denied untold numbers of citizens their right to obtain firearms for almost two weeks. This amounts to a mass deprivation of civil rights under color of law. [More]
Let’s hope one of the functions of the Trump Justice Department will be to go after such violations– like we tried to get phony John Ashcroft to do many years ago.

Herschel observers that “arguing for semi-automatic firearms because they aren’t fully automatic firearms and thus not in military use is the wrong tactic.”
“But we have to do things in increments,” some will argue back.
He realizes that. It’s for when we get to the make-or-break increment we should be worried about.
It’s similar to fears I’ve expressed about how relying on “in common use at the time” is a trap.

Today, Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) secured a permanent injunction against the State of Illinois’ poorly named Protect Illinois Communities Act. This law violates the Second Amendment and unconstitutionally bans many semi-automatic rifles, standard capacity magazines, and bump stocks, while instituting new registration requirements for gun owners.
