Biden addresses possible gun charge against son Hunter: ‘He’s on the straight and narrow’ [More]
Anybody hear a satisfactory response on why the gun-grab administration is giving a pass on a felony? And the DSM just lets it go at that?

Notes from the Resistance
At the time of the ruling, attorney Stephen Stamboulieh advised that no appeal would be filed due to time, expense, and the unlikelihood of it succeeding. This could change that. A motion for reconsideration may now be feasible since Biden’s attorney Clark publicly acknowledged the investigation. [More]
With his lawyer publicly acknowledging an investigation, ATF’s “Hunter Biden privacy” claim at this point is demonstrably BS.

Are they aware of the affidavit?
Because if that’s a lie, someone is in big trouble.

Defendant’s motion hinges on the constitutionality of § 922(n) because if the provision is unconstitutional, then Defendant’s false statement during the purchase of the firearm is immaterial. [More]
So if that stands, will it moot any Hunter Biden complaint for lying on the 4473?

Unlike most of the other reports, I appreciate the links and the recognition in this one. There’s still nothing about it, of course, in the “Lies of Omission” major media.
Not to tease, but there’s still a chance this might not be over that I can’t give details on yet.
Republicans haven’t had much luck, either, but my suspicion is their move was more pre-midterms motivated. You’ll forgive me if I don’t have a lot of confidence in a GOP-controlled House Oversight Committee doing much more than making self-serving noise.
Still, it tells us all we need to know about the Democrats.

UPDATE
Most of the entries are copied off the Politico piece.
Aside from most avoiding a link to the original report, the other thing they have in common is none of them are big outfits, which would just as soon nobody talk about this.

Thus, pursuant to 34 U.S.C. § 40901(e)(1)(D), we hereby notify you, and thereby make you “aware” that the “basis” on which signers of the NICS Indices Self-Submission Form have been reported to NICS “does not apply.” Thus, pursuant to you your duties under the statute, we respectfully request that the FBI: (i) identify and “remove” records from its “database” relating to those who have signed the FBI form; (ii) that the FBI (under the authority of the Attorney General) “remove” the offending records from the NICS system;4 and (iii) that the FBI halt its use of the illegal and unconstitutional NICS Indices Self-Submission Form. [More]
Funny, how the form doesn’t include a Miranda warning that anything they sign can and will be used against them in a court of law and that they have a right to an attorney. The workaround appears to be that the signers haven’t been convicted or “adjudicated” of anything (yet).
You’d think the FixNICSers would be focused on industry customers being tyrannized and coerced instead of cheerleading registration-enabling prior restraints imposed by their “partners.”
Any bets on getting the requested reply in 30 days, or do Christopher Wray et al. figure as long as Democrats control things there’s no danger of personal repercussions, they have an inexhaustible legal war chest at their disposal, and if the Republicans do manage not to blow it, the “leadership” won’t pursue things thoroughly enough to actually punish anyone?
Or will they get right on it as soon as the frog march Hunter Biden for lying twice?
Oh, so that’s the reason.
I appealed the warning and gave as my reason:
This tweet documents photographic evidence that Hunter Biden has committed a second firearms-related felony that no one else in the media is covering.
That and I could find a million photos on Twitter that show more skin.
I’ll letcha know what they say.
UPDATE
I just noticed someone sent me a Facebook message yesterday:
Thanks for posting the Ammoland.com article on your fB Page on June 8 & 9th. I was curious if you received any notice from fB about it because I attempted to share it on my page and immediately noticed that it goes “against Community Guidelines” Really?!?!
As a result of sharing it, my #2A businesses have been issued a 28-day ban on Facebook.
I thought it was a well-documented and written article with citations, proof, and a reasonable argument.
Because there is no “Fact-Check” or notice on the post, it must be ok with it. However, just now, in writing this message, I tried to save the article here on fB, which issued two additional warnings that it was contraband.
Again though wanted to thank you for writing the article and the interesting observation and argument presented. I am curious if you have seen any additional follow-up or responses about your presentation. Somebody doesn’t want folks to ask the question.
That, of course, was the same Hunter Biden article, and no, FB never contacted me or took any kind of ban action against me. This and this are both still up with no warnings to me. I guess if they don’t let you know it makes exposing their censorship practices less likely.
Remember the first time they said I violated their “community standards”?
People lots bigger than me don’t want anyone to notice this. Unfortunately, I can’t create a Streisand Effect by myself.

At most, he could have said something like “Give me your card and I will have my lawyer call you.”
Although I do admit, if I had ATF and Delaware State Police together in one handy, recordable location, I’d have been willing to extend the conversation to questions about Hunter Biden’s gun.
