A Plan Comes Together

“This is hilarious. The boss of Raytheon, one of the US top weapons manufacturers, says the company has ‘several thousand suppliers in China and decoupling . . . is impossible.’” [More]

Say, gang, I’ve got a swell idea! Let’s force that same dependency on America’s entire supply chain!

Any questions about why those bringing this about, like their masters, don’t want us armed?

Hey, who’s up for dying for “gun-free” Taiwan?

Taiwan ‘Gun Control’ Means Civilian Training Too Little Too Late

While parallels to the situation in Ukraine are understandable enough to make with this new move to recruit civilians into the defense equation, the biggest similarity (and biggest mistake) is, both nations waited until the wolf was at the door to start the process. [More]

Once again, citizen disarmament is proving destructive to those who presume to hold a monopoly of violence.

‘So We Can Kill People While Keeping the Climate Safe’

‘The Five’ co-hosts react to Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm doubling down on an initiative to have the U.S. military implement an all-electric vehicle fleet by 2030. [More]

And who are we dependent on for the rare earth metals needed for electric vehicles…?

New York Sen. Chuck Schumer was recently caught on video rubbing elbows with one of two men arrested for running a secret — and illegal — Chinese police station in New York City’s Chinatown. The hobnobbing occurred at a gala for the Fukien American Association. [More]

Yeah, I heard a tape where they were complaining about “fukien’ Americans”…

It’s a Big 俱乐部 and You Aint In It

The Supreme Court also struck down a New York state law that had been in place since 1913 restricting people from carrying concealed firearms. As the nation reflects on gun violence, such a reckless reversal of New York’s gun control law is intolerable, noted the governor of New York. American political commentator Matthew Dowd pointed out that the problems facing the United States today are rooted in the fragmentation of democracy. What American citizens want are a fair ruling in Roe v. Wade, a real gun reform, higher minimum wages, steeper taxes on the super-rich, better health care for all, and other reforms that heed popular calls. [More]

So the Bush/Cheney chief campaign strategist is basically speaking for the Chicoms on “gun control”…

Easy Enough to Fix

McCaul: We Can’t Make Weapons Fast Enough ‘to Protect the United States or our Allies’ and Don’t Have Deterrence in Taiwan [More]

Well, with Democrats doing their best to disarm those recognized by the Founders as “being necessary to the security of a free State,” you gotta wonder how much of the treason is intentional as opposed to just ignorant.

As for Taiwan, let ’em arm and train their own citizens. I’m not willing to go die for suicidal tyranny lite and can’t very well expect any other American to.
