Notes from the Resistance
In recent weeks the Biden administration and many news outlets, including USA Today and The Hill, have touted declines in violent crime statistics to argue that America is becoming a safer place. [More]
While guns continue to be bought in record numbers...?

The Justice Department on Thursday informed House Republicans that President Joe Biden has formally asserted executive privilege over the audio of his interview with special counsel Robert Hur, a move that DOJ says effectively shields Attorney General Merrick Garland from any criminal exposure as the Republican lawmakers move toward trying to hold him in contempt of Congress. [More]
Gee, DOJ stonewalling Congress on contempt: Where have we seen THAT before?
I’m envisioning what an “Only One” would ask if a citizen did not waive their rights and give permission to look in their trunk.
Boy, ol’ Carlos Uriarte can weasel-word with the best of them, can’t he?
“It’s even a bigger influx now in terms of Hispanic voters, or Hispanic – Hispanic citizens, who want to become citizens,” President Biden said of the current migrant crisis. [More]
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.
Texas mother sent text to ex-husband saying, ‘Say goodbye to your son’ before killing boy … A gun was also found at the crime scene, which Salazar said Kriger legally bought from a friend who had purchased the firearm from a sporting goods store. “It was a legal gun,” according to the sheriff. “It was hers.” [More]
Interesting, what such a demonic lunatic’s actions benefit …

What appears to have gotten the Secret Service’s attention? One of the man’s posts suggested, apparently jokingly, that he planned to “invade the White House and get pics of Biden in his ‘Depends,’” referring to a brand of adult diaper. [More]
OK, that didnt work.

All we’ve got to do is get past the menstrual pads…

Joe Biden announces that the 2A was ‘never absolute’ and all that talk about the tree of liberty is ‘crap’ [More]
Me, I’m hoping those swing state poll numbers hold.
In which case we’ll see about that.
WE may get a good preview of things to come at the Democrat Convention.

How’s that saying about flies and vinegar go…?
I’m with Napoleon on this one.

Woman’s body found in closet, suspect says he fired shots to ‘scare’ her [More]
But he was just listening to Joe and Rob…

‘A lot would have to go wrong for Biden to lose’ [More]
That H. L. Mencken: Him plenty smart fella.
If any more goes wrong, who says there’ll be an election?
But The New York Times reported in early April that covert Chinese accounts are masquerading as supporters of former President Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. These accounts are also promoting conspiracy theories, stoking domestic divisions and attacking Biden ahead of the election in November. [More]
Just to be clear, when election fraud allegations point at Democrats, they’re “baseless.”
And since “Russian collusion” didn’t work, we’ll just change the meme to “Chinese.”
You’re doing fine all by yourself.
Look at all the defiant Americans in comments telling you in no uncertain terms that “We will not disarm.” Pass your treasonous ban and resistance will only grow stronger.
How many of your countrymen are you willing to order your enforcers to kill if they refuse to bend to your will?
A question’s no good unless you ask it.
An email I sent out this morning to my “small cadre” of advisors:
https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-04-19/pdf/2024-07838.pdf
“The definition of ‘to predominantly earn a profit’ now focuses only on whether the intent underlying the sale or disposition of firearms is predominantly one of obtaining pecuniary gain… ’ to define the terms ‘purchase’ and ‘sale’ as they apply to dealers to include any method of payment or medium of exchange for a firearm…”
Did they just tank anonymous “buybacks” with “no questions asked”? I know some gun owners publicize selling cheap junk for a profit… I don’t see a carve out for buybacks in the text (albeit I only did a word search and have not pored through the whole mess).
It turns out Armed Attorneys addressed that in a video Len Savage sent me the link to, along with this observation:
Fun fact: The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was touted to close the “gun show loophole” to prevent buying a firearm without a background check,
However; There is NOTHING in the rule (based on the law passed) that effects or applies to a BUYER.
NOTHING!
Meaning it would only affect the seller of a firearm to a buyback program.
Don’t take my word on it, here are two attorneys discussing it.
The relevant section starts at 8:12:
So it looks like they outsmarted themselves, and now need to ignore their own rule.
So, every time the antis hold a buyback, why not loudly complain and warn people they’re being invited to violate “commonsense gun safety laws”?

I always observed it on April 19 to celebrate armed citizens resisting tyranny, but I guess some do it on the third Monday of April, which in this case was tax deadline day, which seems to miss some key points.
Speaking if missing key points, this was how the Biden White House celebrated it:
