Read My Lips: No New Bushes
Bush family political dynasty may be eyeing a comeback in 2026 governor’s race in Maine – Jonathan Bush positions himself as a moderate Republican in state that leans left but prizes independent streak [More]
Moderate Republican = Democrat useful idiot.

We’re the Only Ones Descending Enough
Dozens of ATF Agents Descend on DC Neighborhoods as Part of Trump Takeover [More]
I don’t suppose they’ll be charged with what they do with the guns so much as just having them, so before cheering this on, “send not for whom the bell tolls…”
Shall Not Be Infringed Except…
“No law-abiding citizen should have to wait months before he or she can register their firearms, or obtain a concealed carry permit”… [More]
No citizen should be required to do either.
I really get tired of being a critic. I wish our “leaders” would give me less to criticize.
If anyone wants to give a lecture on increments, you’ve got the whole rest of the internet to do it at.
Fair Means or Foul
Violence is hitting Ohio’s county fairs, and state law protects guns over fairgoers [More]
It would help if they told us which laws the violent would obey, and how making the peaceable more vulnerable to their predation would do anything but make it worse.
But, like typical statists, their answer is to disempower the individual and give more to the controllers, and call for more when that predictably doesn’t do anything but put free men in restraints.
You don’t hate “authorized journalists” enough.

Searching for Meaning at the Thunder Ranch Gun School [More]
If you’re lost you can’t find yourself in secondary pursuits and need to address your core issues first? Who knew?
I’m searching for a point to this article and wondering why Thunder Ranch gave the anti-gun New York Times access, and if I can get my minutes wasted reading it back…

New Kind of Same Old Democrat
Fred Ode, a Lorain County entrepreneur, says he’s preparing to enter Ohio’s Democratic U.S. Senate race and is ready to pour millions of dollars of his own money into his campaign…Brown, Ode says, is “playing by the old rules. …Democrats have to make things happen.” [More]
Well, we know all about Brown’s old rules. What about Fred’s “new” ones?
Over at Ode Nepoexecutive Central, we see he owns a country club. Shall we see what he imposes when he exerts total control?
Yeah, uh, f_ you, Fred. Although I wouldn’t mind if you forced Brown to burn through some campaign cash.
And doesn’t this just say something about the priorities of many well-heeled country club Republicans I’m sure are members, who are on the course instead of at the range?

Culture Clash
A 14-year-old girl was kidnapped in Kansas by an illegal alien predator from Guatemala… Why won’t they turn him over to ICE? [More]
Well, consider who runs the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department after Joe Arpaio “lost the election”…
So… who was paying for the room?

Turns out democracy is sacred until progressives lose. Then they expect a full on military coup. [More]
The newsraper of record decries the lack of a junta to overturn the will of the people. And it’s “guardians of the constitutional order” is rich considering the hostility the left showed to Oath Keepers.

Kumbayah My Lord, Kumbayah
Yes, patriotism can be as simple as flying the flag or even reciting the Declaration of Independence on Fourth of July. But perhaps the greatest act of patriotism is something we can do every day: start to initiate or rekindle friendships with people with whom we disagree. [More]
What, you mean the communists who want to disarm, cancel, and kill me or just the useful idiots who vote them into power?
Figures… Heritage Foundation…

The governor of New Mexico declared a state of emergency Wednesday in response to violent crime and drug trafficking across a swath of northern New Mexico, including two Native American pueblo communities. [More]
Rio Arriba County, eh…?

Faking Wokeness to Fit In – 88% of students report pretending to hold more progressive views than they really do [More]
Motives probably include everything from just plain cowardice, to wanting to avoid struggle sessions, to wanting to get a good grade, to wanting to get laid, and more. In any case, it hopefully means the David Hoggs of the world have overestimated their political clout.
There’s also the potential– once they discover they don’t need to pretend in order to keep ideological bullies at bay — that they’ll resent those who pressured them to, realize they’re neither invulnerable nor unassailable, and undergo a Salish Epiphany.

The Animating Contest
Don’t be content to just bellyache, instead do something. And by “do something”, I don’t mean the half-assed leftist version of “do something”, I mean give some serious thought, and come up with something potentially meaningful you can do, to help our cause. [More]
Stumped for ideas? Pick one or more, or come up with something that suits you.
Crime Story
We present this thread with limited commentary because Anna Giaritelli’s story is so troubling and damning of the D.C. police force, it truly speaks for itself. On that note, please send this to any pundit, anchor, Democrat, or Lefty you see spewing the flat-out LIE that violent crime is down 30% in that city. [More]
To say they care about women’s rights is pretty much the same as saying cattlemen care about bovine rights. Any protection has an ultimate goal of maximizing exploitation.
Not that you’d expect these useful idiots to do anything but low with the herd…
As for arguing about it with Lefties, here’s why a descent into their cognitive dissonance is a waste of time, offered without further comment:
Tangentially-Related UPDATE
Make it make sense: Gun grabbers come out against fighting crime [More]
Gladly. It’s not about fighting crime.

Just Like the Founders Intended with ‘Shall Not Be Infringed’
[T]he Department of Justice [is] fighting the so-called non-resident handgun ban that says that you cannot take a possession of a handgun in a state in which you are not a resident from an FFL. That’s right. This law is being challenged down there in Texas and the Department of Justice has just responded arguing that the law is indeed constitutional under our Second Amendment. Is it? [Watch]
Of course not.
Either the AUSA signing onto that is a still-embedded Democrat purposely undermining Pam Bondi’s memo, or it’s all smoke and mirrors and she was just telling gun owners what they wanted to hear to keep them corralled.
And so much for the new “Pro-gun” ATF mandarin NSSF is gushing over.
In either case, it once more illustrates that until the 2A Task Force includes actual 2A advocates instead of just government employees beholden to their masters, we can continue to expect DOJ bipolarity, with aggressive MAGA Über Alles types asking if we’d rather have Kamala.
There’s a reason the rice bowl gun groups aren’t demanding a seat at the table. They’ve been showering him with flattery and simultaneously walking on eggshells, afraid to p!$$ off a mercurial Trump, lest he condemn them and cast them out.
