Notes from the Resistance
Cornyn and senators tell ATF director no new policies before Trump takes over [More]

US newspapers are deleting old crime stories, offering subjects a ‘clean slate’ [More]
So now it’s the job of “Authorized Journalists” to suppress relevant information. My “For ‘progressives,’ every day is Opposite Day” adage just keeps proving itself.
That’s one way for authorities to absolve themselves of the predictable results of catch-and-release.

CNN Tries and Fails – Again – to Make Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law Controversial [More]
So a 42-year-old with a violent criminal history threatens an armed 79-year-old with a chainsaw, who responds appropriately, and that’s reason to disparage”Stand Y0ur Ground”?

Like the Only Ones T-shirt says, I got up early to beat the crowds, which explains all the posting done before 8 a.m.

H.R. 38 (118th): Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act [More]
With permits, of course, which leaves me out.
I don’t see a prognosis yet so I’ll give mine: Good luck getting “Republicans” like Brian Fitzpatrick and Susan Collins not to join with the Democrats to keep this from ever getting to the president’s desk.

Doltish reporters Rebecca Shabad and Ryan J. Reilly breathlessly reported that “Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., falsely claimed in a lengthy post on X this morning that ‘thousands of peaceful grandmothers’ gathered Jan. 6, 2021, to take a tour of the U.S. Capitol building and that people peacefully explored the building.” They go on and on about “false” and “untrue” claims in Collins’ post, including some assertions that aren’t false.

Doltish is right. I remember Ryan J. Reilly freaking out over “rubber bullets” that earned him his own special Fauxtoshop that seemed so appropriate…
