Notes from the Resistance
DeSantis Lashes Out at No-Show Republican Senators After Far-Left Judge Confirmation – Rubio and Vance were two of the five absent senators. You’re not in the Trump administration yet. Get to the chamber and do your job. [More]
Call it what is is: dereliction of duty.
What’s worse is they know what the plan is, and they gave this one up without a fight.
And this excuse is just bull$h!+.
But wait– there’s more.

Attorney Mehek Cooke, a Republican attorney who served as a political and legal surrogate for Trump in 2024, is under consideration to be chosen to fill Vance’s seat… [More]
Knowing DeWine, who he picks is a real concern.
She seems to have the right attitude on guns.
And on illegal immigration…
The idiot prohibitionists piling on, that is, the losers p!$$ed off about election results, offer the same tired, refutable arguments:
“Well regulated” refers to the militia. It has no bearing on weapons kept at home, and the Constitution delegates no authority for any branch of government to overcome “shall not be infringed.”
The “It’s the gun ” argument ignores the tens of millions of us who morally coexist with guns every day. Their only “solution” is to do what they say we’re paranoid for fearing: Ban guns.
And don’t argue “suicide” and then argue the police should be the “Only Ones” armed.
For now, there are several good choices for gun owners that DeWine can make, a few problematic ones, and one that’s completely unacceptable, his previous pick Dolan. [More]
Review the candidates and let him know what you think.
I gotta tell ya, I was delighted to see seven comments by the time I noticed this was up and then saw only one was on topic…:-(
Leftists Predict Hysterical Dystopian Future Ruled By JD Vance And An Immortal Elon Musk [More]
You’d think if they really believed that they’d want everyone to have a Phased Plasma rifle in the 40 watt range…
Yet Trump voters are the paranoid delusional disorder sufferers…

JD Vance Tells Joe Rogan What He Did After Trump Was Shot, “I Go Home and Load All My Guns” [More]
I just don’t get why so many “conservatives” are enamored of a Bernie supporter.
I never got the affinity for Michael Savage, either.
[Via bondmen]
JD Vance’s acceptance of prohibitionist terms, his failure to correct egregious errors and outright lies, and his avoidance of elaborating to voters on why the right to keep and bear arms is the keystone of freedom, show that when it comes to effective advocacy, Republican politicians all too often come up short. [More]
There were all kinds of missed opportunities, unnecessary concessions, and lies left unchallenged.
What more proof is needed that when the Deep State runs things, the president is just a figurehead?
Yeah, right, the problem is the Constitution.
[Via bondmen]
But Kamala’s welcome?
Vance is being too kind to them.
But you’ll notice all the Democrats, gun grab groups, and DSM, but I repeat myself, parroting the lie, and idiot followers swallowing it whole.
If it had been up to Kamala, the death toll would have been higher.
Just tell me you’ve got Donald on board.
I suppose it’s too much to mention the only law that will work…

Once Again, David Hogg Demonstrates He’s Not So ‘Slick’ With Ridiculous Oil Challenge [More]
I’m still waiting to see him accept the arm-wrestle-a-girl challenge.
[Via Michael G]
I don’t do this to subvert election chances or to get people mad at me. I do it because by viewing politicians with realistic expectations, gun owners will be in a better position to understand where, when and how they may disappoint us once we help them win power, and to insist the “gun rights leaders” endorsing them do everything they can to make sure it’s understood our rights are non-negotiable. [More]
I’m voting for Donald Trump and JD Vance. I want you to vote for Donald Trump and JD Vance. I just think we’ll all be better positioned for whatever happens after they win if we don’t vote for them blindly.
The Atlantic: Trump Allies Now Rethinking J.D. Vance Pick [More]
Biden dropping – or being forced – out was no surprise. This is PSYOPs.
Figures “Republicans Against Trump,” that is, embedded Democrats, would boost the signal.
That said, it would be foolish to allow contempt for Kamala to create complacency. She has her own machine, and this is a gal who knows how to get down and dirty. Ask Willie.
Democrats will vote for a cabbage before they’d vote for any Republican, even the Quislings, and their women, particularly the loudmouthed white ones, will burn the house down to get them some abortion.

Next Vice President Wants To Abolish ATF! [Watch]
It’s nothing he didn’t tell us three years ago.
I’d hold off on the exclamation points and gushing over campaign rhetoric until he fleshes out what he wants to do with ATF’s functions, and how he intends to get from here to there with Congress.
Offloading it onto another agency could just make things worse.
[Via Jess]
All the times Trump’s VP pick JD Vance has attacked him [More]
I went through his pros and cons here and ended on a note of concern:
Firearms News made three attempts to ask Vance if he would be willing to answer some detailed questions about [being a Never ] and about the legislative agenda gun owners should expect to see him pursue. He has chosen not to respond.
You could ask “Who am I?” and you’d be right, but a national magazine reaching a core voting demographic should not be so easy to dismiss. I also worry about who will be picked to replace him, especially since the GOP candidate who will be opposing Ohio’s Democrat communist gun-grabbing senator Sherrod Brown is another “reformed” Never Trumper who laughed at gun owners and asked:
“What kind of gun do you need to have a hundred bullets in it?” Moreno asked. “And are you going to eat a deer that has a hundred bullets in it? Can’t there be some common sense that says that one [gun] is probably out, right, without infringing on someone’s rights? Can’t we have universal background checks?”
If Vance is elected, his replacement will be picked by the bipolar Gov. Mike DeWine.
Politics…
Stop the U.S. Senate from Banning Bump Stocks – According to The Hill, Senator Chuck Schumer plans to bring a ban on bump stocks to a vote in the Senate this week! [More]
What, he’s taking a break from showing us he doesn’t have the first idea how to grill while pretending he’s a normal American?
The Senate can’t by themselves, and the House isn’t likely to pass anything unless a Reichstag shooting makes the “moderates” run for the hills.
Still, if your Senator(s) is/are the approachable kind, it won’t hurt to let them know you care.
In my case, Sherrod Brown’s a waste of time as well as oxygen, but JD Vance has been making the right noises (of late).
Ann Coulter: Pick the Hillbilly, Trump [More]
Vance has issues of his own but not as big as those from another name being bandied about.
My biggest concern is who would replace him in the Senate.
[Via bondmen]
He doesn’t want to take away guns, but some are “out”? Which ones and why? That’s not “infringing”? Why does he sound like every anti-gunner in the world with the deer cracks? And no private sales? Does this guy even have a clue? [More]
Bernie? You got some ‘splainin’ to do. So does Donald, and JD, and Dave, and Ted, and Rand, and…
Right-wing evangelical Laila Mickelwait teamed up with billionaire Bill Ackman to demand credit card companies stop processing payments on PornHub, and the protests worked. [More]
Power usurpation and coercion are not the answers to this problem. Vance should know that.
When McMullin makes accusations about betraying the Constitution, a dispassionate conclusion would be someone who knows how to do that like a pro is projecting his penchant for betrayal on others for obvious reasons. [More]
It really says something about this moron’s arguments when the best rebuttal to them comes from Pee-wee Herman…
On an unrelated note:
Those of you who noticed the site was down all day, I kept getting 504 Gateway Timeout messages– I did all the things I knew how to do on my end, which isn’t much: clearing the cache, restarting, cussing loudly, but ended up calling HostGator tech support who were able to identify that the IP address for the site didn’t match and they did a fix. I don’t know how that happened. That was hours ago and the site is just getting back to where I can access it more often than it times out, so I was able to get in, approve comments and post this promo for my latest AmmoLand article.
Per normal, unless something YUGE happens, I don’t plan on doing updates over the weekend (I will be working on articles behind the scenes and spending a day on the leaves that bury the yard every year around this time). Hopefully, the situation is resolved and any news link tips received Monday won’t be a wasted effort.
Knock on wood.
Democrat Tim Ryan Doubles Down on Call to ‘Kill and Confront’ MAGA Republicans, Specifically Targets J.D. Vance in Violent Rhetoric [More]
That’s why he wants us disarmed.

Drug companies in opioid crisis donated $27K to Ohio’s Ryan [More]
What’s the street value?
It’s really not that much over the years. There are better reasons to oppose this collectivist punk. If you know any Ohio gun owners, show them what they are.

Busted! Ohio Democrat Tim Ryan Traveled to Hollywood Fundraiser After Claiming He Was Unable to Attend Proceedings in House Chamber “Due to Ongoing Public Health Emergency” [More]
Well, we already knew he was a self-serving, gun-grabbing, violence-inciting liar…
[Via bondmen]
“Some of those answers will come from Republicans, not the extremists that we are dealing with every single day,” Ryan continued, to show how conciliatory he can be. “We’ve got to kill and confront that movement, but working with normal mainstream Republicans, that’s going to be really, really important.” [More]
So if you don’t let radical gun-grabbing Democrats have the final word on who qualifies as a “normal mainstream Republican,” you’re an “extremist.”
“Losses in Ohio, Georgia, and Pennsylvania would almost certainly doom the GOP’s chances of winning the Senate.” [More]
Democrat media megaphones are ready, willing, and able to amplify and exploit self-inflicted wounds as the Stupid Party continues to demoralize its base.
