Notes from the Resistance
Demonizing gun owners who believe in the founders’ intent of the Second Amendment is nothing new for our government. I’ve been following such attempts for years. [More]
“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.”
Leftists freak out over one word concerning FBI at Trump’s home … It’s a “search,” not a “raid.” [More]
Hence the JBT with the machinegun.
Note how all the major players forego “home” in favor of “compound”:
The Biden Administration Defends the Federal Ban on Gun Possession by Medical Marijuana Users [More]
What about crack smokers?
So when will Nikki Fried be prosecuted?
And, since they cite the historical precedents, when will the confiscation raids to disarm Indians and Catholics begin? They do realize both groups mostly vote Democrat?

[T]he issue that was being examined is to what extent a regulatory agency, a part of the administrative branch of government, would adopt, interpret or establishment by rules or regulations policies which Congress did not adopt and which Congress did not clearly and specifically delegate to the agency to adopt. That question is at the core of the legal issues involving the ATF’s regulatory bans… [More]
Call me a naive dreamer, but I still hold on to a fleeting fantasy that someday, ATF will be forced to surrender my property back to me. That’s why I got a stock I had no use for except to claim and defend my right to own it.

They are looking for an excuse to indict him…..and keep him under indictment. While indicted he won’t be able to run for office. If they can get him behind bars that’s just a bonus. It’s a virtual certainty they will have “found” i.e planted evidence during this bullshit raid. The American Gestapo nee FBI will do whatever their masters in the American Communist Party tell them to do. [More]
Yeah, that was my fourth thought after I called it a day. Stealing 2020 wasn’t enough– after seeing his CPAC straw poll results and knowing people will be paying attention next time, stealing 2024 calls for pulling out all the stops. If this fails, some may be deranged enough to want that assassination Bernard Kerik is publicly speculating on, and all I can say to that is if they thought Archduke Ferdinand was a catalyst for something bigger…
What I can’t tell at this point is if this is a long-planned step or if it’s a last-ditch desperation “Hail Mary” by the Dems who know their numbers are up for November. Trust in government is at a low and a significant portion of the country believes the last election was stolen– not just a handful of lunatics in buffalo hats egged on by assorted provocateurs. That also explains why the Dems are so adamant about this J6 business– if legitimacy in their rule is exposed for all to see as fraudulent, they’ve seen what happens when truckers in Canada and farmers in the Netherlands are roused. They know that F-15s and nukes aside, they’re hopelessly outnumbered on the ground– which is why they want our guns.
I find it significant that, at this writing, there is nothing in the Google News feed about Mitch McConnell weighing in on this. I sense a combination of feckless Republicans not knowing how real hardball is played and some of the old guard rooting for the Swamp because they believe they’ll have a place in it.
UPDATES
We’ll probably want to check in on Donald Trump’s Truth Social page from time to time for statements. This seems like a point to hammer on:
The FBI And DOJ Criminalizing Opposition To The Regime Is How The Republic Ends [More]
So is that a bug or a feature?

Every American should be frightened and mad as hell by such unprecedented police state thuggery tactics and there must be a complete dismantling and elimination of the FBI. This is too much for our republic to withstand,” concluded Congressman Gosar. [More]
“FBI delenda est.”
[Via Henry Bowman]
This is a provocation. They are trying to get a reaction that allows a further crackdown. Don’t take the bait. [More]
He’s right about deliberate provocation, but this piece feels incomplete. “Be smart” has to include more than “do nothing.”
[Via Michael G]
Remember when Trump said it would be best for armed government agents to raid you and take your property first and then “go through due process second?” [More]
Helluva thing, being hoist with your own petard.
Former Capitol Cop Edward Travis Page provided proof that he’s legit
— shared texts that he says are from Brian Sicknick, blaming “Antifa” on January 6th.
— says that January 6th committee witnesses LIMITED in what they’re allowed to say (i.e. can’t give both sides) [More]
So we’re being lied to by seditious conspirators…?

How is this any different from “You won’t object to us searching you and your premises without a warrant and talking to you without your attorney if you have nothing to hide”?
And who believes this fascist dweeb has actual “GOP friends”?
[Via Michael G]
Tangentially-related UPDATE:
Look at some of the replies. [More]
Most of those will never even question things unless they’re caught in the net. Most have never considered the implications behind “He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.”

George Soros Is Aiding Illegals Sneaking Into The US [More]
What kind of antisemite would be against that?
Besides, it’s not like this has anything to do with that “single issue.”
[Via Michael G]
One backer of the measure stated the she was “terrified” of firearms and had a visceral reaction of fear to them. Yet, in spite of her admitted, irrational behavior, she dominated the conversation on what the statement should say. [More]
So… SOP…?
Well, it turns out there are photos. And here they are, published for the first time. [More]
And this made the ever-sold-out Drudge.
Sr. Bedoya, the floor is yours:
Admissible evidence? We ain’t got no admissible evidence. We don’t need no admissible evidence. I don’t have to show you any stinking admissible evidence!
Is this really all they want us to need? What honest man wouldn’t rebel against that?
Funny. They don’t invite comments.

He should have planted it up lying sack Wray’s…
Who’s responsible for what goes out on his watch? And it’s not like this crap and worse hasn’t been documented and objected to for years (except, of course, by the DSM).
[Via Jess]

Flesh that out for us, John. Tell us what that looks like when previously “law-abiding,” peaceable, and productive citizens suddenly made criminal by diktat say “No.”
A bumper sticker along the lines of the old Teddy Kennedy one comes to mind:

“I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this—who will count the votes, and how.” [More]
Who better to put in charge of elections than Marxist sympathizers bent on “canceling” traditional Americans/gun owners?

If this doesn’t make you realize you shouldn’t have any guns, nothing will.

HR 8051 a 1,000% tax on all firearms and magazines listed in the AWB of 2022 bill. [Watch]
They have to use tricks because Donald Beyer Jr. and his 41 Democrat co-traitors behind this know that otherwise there is only a 1% chance of this passing.
Where have we seen such racist edicts pricing firearms out of the reach of discriminated-against populations before?
I wonder if Don’s going to personally tell them…?
