NRA and President Trump Can Determine Whether Virginia Goes to Earle-Sears or the Democrats

Deserving gun owners now want better of President Trump, and it’s not hyperbole to conclude that if he—and NRA—don’t do a lot more, and quickly, Virginia could be lost to the Democrats. [More]

NRA: You owe it to your members to allocate the necessary manpower and funding resources to follow the comprehensive plan you’ve been given. President Trump:You owe it to the gun-owning voters who elected you to put your personal resentments aside and endorse her.

Playing Both Ends Against the Middle

Dimon did not denigrate President Donald Trump. Dimon was not complimentary of President Donald Trump. The JP Morgan CEO believes the U.S. Federal Reserve was doing a good job. In the past, Dimon has skirted questions about JP Morgan Chase Bank’s stance on gun control. It appears he has tried to avoid the issue while pleasing and provoking both Second Amendment supporters and those who want a disarmed population. [More]

I’m an “Apologize, repent, and make things right first” kinda guy.

An Immergut Reaction

Trump’s ‘war-ravaged Portland’ National Guard deployment halted by federal judge over authority concerns – Judge Karin Immergut, appointed by President Donald Trump in 2019, granted the TRO blocking the federal action. [More]

Crappy, disloyal appointments are what screwed him — and us — in his first administration. Who got her on the president’s radar and then championed her for nomination, especially since Democratic Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley were OK with her? And does that person still have the president’s ear?

A Discouraging Word

Bondi’s DOJ Defends Unconstitutional Handgun Sales Ban — Another Betrayal of Trump’s Pro-Gun Agenda [More]

An X.com thread elaborates.

Maybe they need to up the lithium…

This is where I gotta address an administration apologist, attorney, author, and YouTube “gunfluencer Mark W. Smith of Four Boxes Diner fame, who seems to always find excuses for such disappointments and who doesn’t much like those of us who dare point out disconnects. But before I elaborate, I’ll stipulate he’s got me outmatched with academic and legal credentials, and that I’ll never win a Gundie (or for that matter, a bathing suit contest). And don’t get me wrong– I really do appreciate much of what he does. Just not all.

I’ll also stipulate that Donald Trump has done more to advance 2A than any president in my lifetime. We can help him do better, but not if we ignore infringements pushed by “our side.”

Here’s a direct quote, noting commentary like this is peppered throughout this presentation and increasingly showing up in others:

And it reiterates my point on this channel that a lot of those people in the Second Amendment community, and you know exactly who you are. You anti-Trumpers in the Second Amendment community whining and complaining about nonsensical things, about Amy Coney Barrett on one day, Pam Bond on another day, Donald Trump on another day, and you know exactly who you are .

Yeah, I know exactly who I am. Does he? Because if he thinks that’s why “we” do this, it makes me wonder what else he’s not factoring in, and how much of that is deliberate. To dismiss pointing out differences between promises and actions as “whining” is obnoxious and candidly, not an honest take.

Somebody’s got to point out when the emperor has no clothes, and our ideological leaders, of which he is one, shouldn’t be discouraging that.

As for Texas Gun Rights, which brought us the above-linked story, instead of dismissing them as “anti-Trump,” maybe we should talk with Brandon Hererra and Lt. Col. Allen West first.

And as long as I’m pointing out disagreements, as essential as “in common use” has proven to be in moving the ball this far, going forward it can and will be used to deny arms that are not. He’s had the opportunity to refute me and show me where I’m wrong, and truthfully, I wish he could.

As for criticisms earned by the Trump administration, and there are many in the mix, I keep coming back to how this could be easily avoided and we could live happily ever after singing his praises.

But not presuming to be “the smartest person in the room,” what the hell do I know?

Thank You, Mr. President

Lawyers for President Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court last week to review the legality of his executive order ending birthright citizenship — a high-profile and controversial order that, if enacted, would have profound impacts on the lives of millions of Americans and lawful U.S. residents. [More]

THIS!

As a nation and a people, it’s the most existentially important battle to win at this time, and this is the only president in my lifetime willing and positioned to wage it.

See? I can say nice things about him when he deserves it.

Now, someone want to clue in the “single issue” monkeys…?

Nothing Succeeds Like Excess

53 Arrests Made, 20 Guns Seized in First 48 Hours Since Memphis National Guard and Federal Agent Deployment [More]

Expedient results, eh? Should play well with normal voters…?

I hate to keep bringing up the way things were intended, the way they were not, and the importance of not violating boundaries for political points in the name of “a little temporary safety…”

The Next Generation

Pregnant Liberal Women Pop Tylenol to Rebel Against Trump’s Autism Announcement [More]

Remind you of anything? I guess it’s not like they won’t ruin the kids they don’t abort anyway.

“Trust the science” ?

Only on “gun violence/public health,” “climate change,” and “gender fluidity,” right?

Like Larry Elder says, “A facts to a liberal is like Kryptonite is to Superman.”

And like Urban Dictionary says… (NSFW)

Critics point to the planned election of an Iranian regime official to the U.N.’s top human rights body as proof of its moral crisis. [More]

Then again, knowing how the UN defines rights, bestowed by government and subject to approval, that’s apt. I could go on and on and on.

As long as Trump has the UN on his mind, someone with his ear should let him know that Chicago Democrats opposing the National Guard doing the job they can’t won’t do were calling for UN “peacekeepers” not that long ago.

The Man in the Arena

Congressman Massie Introduces Bill to Repeal Federal Gun-Free School Zones Act [More]

Sixth time since 2015’s a charm?

Unfortunately, out of all those “pro-gun” Republicans there are only 13 co-sponsors and the prognosis says there’s a “1% chance of being enacted.”

Funny, how our best-Second-Amendment-president-ever’s primary concern is getting rid of Massie...

Even funnier that the NRA tried to torpedo him.
