Profiles in Teflon
Former Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann was acquitted Tuesday of lying to the FBI when he handed over since-debunked computer data that purportedly tied Donald Trump to Russia, with jurors drawn from a largely Democrat-leaning pool saying special counsel John Durham didn’t prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt. [More]
Well, that wad is shot. No one really thought this was going to be allowed to go anywhere, did they?
UPDATE:
A juror in the trial of former Hillary Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann told the media after his unanimous acquittal on Tuesday that she didn’t think the case should have gone forward because lying to the FBI wasn’t a big deal. [More]
Yep, in-your-face nullification.
Who thought three Hillary donors on the jury were unobjectionable? Throwing the fight much?

Taker’s Remorse
Outside of the store, shortly before 3 p.m., an adult male confronted the individual, brandished a weapon and demanded the AR-15. The individual handed over the assault-style rifle, but then went to a vehicle and retrieved another gun. A shootout ensued. [More]
They’re kind of keeping details about the participants close to the vest…

Turning the Tables?
Apparently, the artist originally wanted to ‘delve’ into the ‘unique and abysmal’ lives of gun owners in America, illustrating their fetishism with firearms… Oh sure, there are plenty of gun-grabbers shrieking and freaking out about these photos, but the number of Second Amendment enthusiasts and gun lovers LOVING the thread far outnumber them. [More]
Doesn’t matter. They’ve outed themselves and exposed themselves to whatever results from that.

The Impose Unenforceable Edicts for the Children Act
Democrats in the House Judiciary Committee will hold a vote on a gun control package Thursday which includes six gun control measures that would not have prevented the Uvalde attack. [More]
Hopefully, Republican “moderates” won’t totally blow the “red wave” in November and this never makes it to the floor.

Sufficient Infringements
Once again, the problem looks less like a lack of laws than a lack of enforcement of laws that are already on the books. [More]
So “our side’s” answer is to enforce existing Intolerable Acts?

Self-Defense Not a ‘Choice’ Statists Allow People to Make for Themselves
“OK, you can have your guns, but you can’t have your AR-15. If you’re gonna get all in my business and tell me what my family can and cannot do, neither can you. They’re gonna come for those AR-15s and you better get ready to give them up!” [More]
Somehow, “nasty” doesn’t seem strong enough…
So It’s True?
Their acts of racist and xenophobic terrorism have aimed to cower the potential political and economic power a Black and Brown majority population in the US could wield by the 2040s. [More]
Wait a sec… I thought anyone who mentioned “Great Replacement” was a racist conspiracy theorist…
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue” …
Great Expectations
Encouraging Words?
Authorities believe the former agent – believed to be from Texas – was one of at least six individuals who regularly communicated with accused gunman Payton Gendron in an online chat room where racist hatred was discussed, the two officials said. [More]
My bet is the question is broader than “What did he know?”

We’re the Fauxnly Ones Rash Enough
Federal agents say four Polk County men were involved in a rash of armed robberies, all while pretending to be law enforcement officers. [Watch]
As I’ve continually noted, be aware of The Fauxnly Ones Files. You never know when an “I was afraid he might not be a real cop” defense could use some validation that it’s a widespread and frequent enough phenomenon to be a legitimate justification for resistance.

Chip Off the Old Block
The Butler Did It
Witnesses said Butler seemed agitated and left but returned to the complex shortly after, armed with an AR-15 style rifle, and started shooting at the crowd. Police said a woman pulled out her pistol, shooting and killing him… Court records showed Butler had been convicted of two felonies in the past, so he should have not had a gun. [More]
Fact: It would have advanced Shannon’s agenda had Butler prevailed.

Doubling Down
Be it resolved that the members of the National Rifle Association of America, in convention assembled, does declare its profound support for the past, present and future leadership of its executive vice president, Wayne LaPierre…One prominent LaPierre backer, Janet Nyce, denounced Wayne’s critics as “the enemy within,” whom she blamed for taking “our beloved NRA down to her knees.” A former sheriff from Montana, who is also a board member, insisted he was “getting tired of these s*** o* b****** at every one of these meeting coming in and trashing Wayne LaPierre.” [More]

By All Means, Go There
The possession, by private citizens who could be called up for militia service, of “weapons of war” is not only protected by the Second Amendment — settled law — it is required. [More]
And the antis say we’re the ones who never want to mention the first 13 words…
In a way, they’re right– for reasons they’ve never adequately explained, the power players “on our side” don’t seem willing to go much beyond “self-defense” in their legal filings.

Going Full FBI
“What the public should be looking at is the fact that the FBI gave our son the means to make this happen. He has no job, no money, no vehicle, and no driver’s license, due to the fact that he is schizophrenic and we; his parents do everything we can possible to keep him safe and functional….. He has suffered through countless serious full-blown schizophrenic delusional episodes and he has been put in numerous mental hospitals since he was 16 years old. The FBI came and picked him up from our home, they gave him a vehicle, gave him a fake bomb, and every means to make this happen none of which he had access to on his own. [More]
