Notes from the Resistance
Hostin: Trump Presidency an ‘Existential Crisis,’ Dems Must Be Willing to ‘Fight and Die’ [More]
ABC/Disney, eh? I’d think the FCC licensing authority would have a say in how this contributes to “Public safety and homeland security.”
I wonder if Sunny has heard about Bill Clinton’s Rules of Engagement…

Defense lawyer Kristy Militello indicated they wanted to test the rifle for operability, accuracy, and range. “It is old, and we want our expert to determine: Is it operable, is it accurate, what kind of distance can it reach?” Militello explained. [More]
Being deliberately rendered inoperable seems like it would be the only relevant factor in terms of moderating charges.

A deputy with the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office has resigned his post after his arrest Tuesday on multiple child sex charges. Landon Slatter, 42, is charged with online solicitation of a minor and sexual assault of a child after allegedly meeting an underage boy for sex multiple times beginning when he was 15. [More]
Now, let’s not draw any general conclusions about this…

Ninth Circuit (Finally) Rules Hawaii’s Gun Purchase Permit and Registration Time Limits are Unconstitutional [More]
The whole damn scheme is unconstitutional.
Journo Bumps Trump with Boom Mic — What was That All About?… Indeed, why didn’t the secret service take any action? How could they be sure that the incident was innocuous? [More]
From my own experience with the Secret Service at Trump media events:
The day of the event, the press was instructed to meet at one end of the huge complex to check in, pick up badges, and for those bringing in cameras and gear, preset equipment, which the Secret Service would check.
What I don’t know is everything protocol requires the equipment to be inspected for.

REPORTER: Why are you pushing to loosen firearm restrictions in Florida?
DESANTIS: “Well, I would say I am vindicating people’s constitutional 2nd Amendment rights. We always have an obligation to do that.” [More]
Who’s the idiot “reporter”?
And when are the Vichycons in the Florida legislature going to give DeSantis something to sign?

Roku has Rocky & Bullwinkle. [More]
They also have spineless @$$holes working for them who “feel” it’s necessary to be toadies to the demands of “woke” mobsters/cultural Marxists:
For a company that depends on retro TV shows, that’s like confessing they’re racist. Anyone triggered by Rocky & Bullwinkle is more ridiculous than anything ever featured on the cartoon, and deserves to be laughed at, insulted, and ejected.
Woku…
Dade Phelan Doubles Down on Meme Regulation Bill Despite First Amendment Concerns [More]
What’s curious is Phelan was “rated 100% by NRA [and] Texas Rifle and Pistol Association” yet Democrats he included in his “leadership circles” and appointed to powerful committee positions, despite Republican objections, were big Kamala Harris boosters.
Our “gun rights leaders” do us no favors by giving ratings that ignore what candidates do to undermine their “good” votes.
Hence the “single issue” sellout.

School’s weapons detection system was not working day student was fatally stabbed, superintendent says [More]
I wonder if anyone has ever done a study on which is more dangerous: public schools or prisons.
Hours after President Donald Trump invoked a wartime law to target terrorist organization Tren de Aragua (TdA) Saturday, a federal judge ruled the law could not be used to deport five Venezuelans and ordered the plane they were believed to be on to return to the U.S. [More]
Thanks, Republicans who rolled over for Obama’s nominee with that 96-0 confirmation vote!
To my fellow Oregonskis, you are outnumbered and your only hope, just like the blacks of the 20th Century lies in federal intervention. And federal intervention it must be. We await a newly invigorated Civil Rights Division of a purged US Department of Justice to get busy. [More]
Which will never happen unless “gun rights groups” stop kissing administration @$$ and start leading their millions of member in demanding it.
I also received this comment via X message:
Howdy. I appreciate your efforts and work! Thought I’d send this privately rather than comment under the article. This is an incorrect take. The Oregon appeals court’s ruling was based on the state constitution as the lower court judge (Raschio) made it clear his decision (pro gun rights) was based on the Oregon constitution (which was an important distinction based on the Federal court decision discussed next). It was the Federal court judge (Trump appointee Immergut) who heard the 2A arguments on measure 114 almost 20+ months ago and attempted to narrow 2A rights with her pro measure 114 100+ page opinion. Raschio’s ruling merely gave us Oregon gun owners a 20 month reprieve (during which time the US Supreme Court should have addressed the issue via Snope and others, but has failed to do so). My $0.02 anyway… Take care & I hope this didn’t come across rude or arrogant, as it was not my intention.
While I don’t recall going into those details to make it an “incorrect take,” it’s not arrogant or rude: I appreciate the background insights.
The 30-day mark for Bondi to report back to Trump through his domestic policy director would have been this past Sunday, March 9. On Thursday, a Department of Justice official confirmed to ABC News that the deadline had been extended to Sunday, March 16. [More]
Who’s missin’ deadlines? We’re extendin’ ’em.
At this posting, still no official word. Hopefully later today there will be a YUGE announcement.
In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various topics surrounding Second Amendment rights, including the role of the ATF, legal challenges, and the implications of recent legislation such as Oregon’s Measure 114. The conversation also touches on the Aikens Accelerator case, expectations from Pam Bondi’s office, and the potential impact of Trump’s executive orders on gun rights. The episode features insights from David Codrea, a long-time contributor, who shares his perspectives on the current state of gun rights and the challenges faced by advocates. [Listen]
Last night’s program…
I’ll be on at 9 Eastern with a maduro in one hand and two fingers of the good stuff in the other. Go to the AAR website to listen/watch live/find a station near you.
I’m hosting a birthday dinner party this evening and don’t have any more time today for blogging.
I will do one more post if my latest Firearms News article gets published, but that’s it on news tips ’til Monday.
Now I’m off to the store for last-minute stuff, then I gotta clean the grill of of accumulated gunk, and then pretty myself up for the guests.
