Sanctuary! Sanctuary!

I like how that last link contained the words “racism” and fascism,” words appearing nowhere in the text of the “report,” showing us exactly what “real reporter” Vasili Varlamos and KATU 2 ABC are all about.

What, the willfully obtuse may ask, does any of this have to do with that “single issue”?

Just Like the Founders Intended with ‘Shall Not Be Infringed’

[T]he Department of Justice [is] fighting the so-called non-resident handgun ban that says that you cannot take a possession of a handgun in a state in which you are not a resident from an FFL. That’s right. This law is being challenged down there in Texas and the Department of Justice has just responded arguing that the law is indeed constitutional under our Second Amendment. Is it? [Watch]

Of course not.

Either the AUSA signing onto that is a still-embedded Democrat purposely undermining Pam Bondi’s memo, or it’s all smoke and mirrors and she was just telling gun owners what they wanted to hear to keep them corralled.

And so much for the new “Pro-gun” ATF mandarin NSSF is gushing over.

In either case, it once more illustrates that until the 2A Task Force includes actual 2A advocates instead of just government employees beholden to their masters, we can continue to expect DOJ bipolarity, with aggressive MAGA Über Alles types asking if we’d rather have Kamala.

There’s a reason the rice bowl gun groups aren’t demanding a seat at the table. They’ve been showering him with flattery and simultaneously walking on eggshells, afraid to p!$$ off a mercurial Trump, lest he condemn them and cast them out.

Speaking of Deeply Personal Betrayals

Exclusive: The ‘Unique and Deeply Personal Betrayal’ of Pam Bondi, According to a Parkland Shooting Survivor [More]

Yeah, how dare she not betray her oath instead and make us all as utterly helpless as  Jaclyn Corin, who helpfully lets us know that even Rick Scott’s concessions were not enough?

Victims of citizen disarmament diktats take it personally, too, stupid little girl.

Time really is lapdog journalism at its most obsequious. Belinda Luscombe no doubt considers herself a “real journalist.”

Stupid Questioner

“You mentioned regulatory functions, that’s—We will not be having ATF agents go to the doors of gun owners, in the middle of the night, asking them about their guns, period. They will be out on the streets with DEA guns and drugs gun.” [More]

I have my concerns about that plan, and may not have survived the Byrd bath.

Still, if I were being grilled like that by a purple-haired shriveled corpse, two rejoinder questions immediately come to mind:

  • If we dunked you in water, would you sink or float?
  • Why’s that douche behind you wearing a face diaper?

How can you NOT have contempt of Congress with shrieking freaks like this demanding fealty?

Hold the Gratitude Until There’s an Answer

I would appreciate your help resolving this situation promptly on a statewide basis without the need for litigation. [More]

Yeah, well, what you’d appreciate and what connected Democrat power player Sheriff Sean Kilkenny will do could be two very different things.

Say he says “No,” and then ties things up in court for years and at the end of the trail the Supreme Court pulls another Snope. Why shouldn’t he take his chances and tell her to go for it? Especially since it’s not his money, the Democrats could very well be back in the national saddle by then, and he could emerge as the scrappy warrior who took on the feds and beat ’em…

The Line Gets Longer

For far too long, New York Democrats have weaponized state power to systematically dismantle the rights of law-abiding gun owners. That’s why I sent a letter to AG Bondi to investigate New York State’s persistent and unconstitutional assault on the Second Amendment rights of its citizens. [More]

Welcome to the party, pal.

A Little Help Here?

Think they’ll tell her to write her Democrat state reps?

DOJ to Illinois Gun Owners: Write Your Democrat Legislators to Repeal Infringements

If you want relief, contact your state representatives, the Democrat ones who are passing citizen disarmament edicts, and ask them not to. [More]

The bipolarity will continue until such time as gun owner advocates have a seat at the decision-making table.

Paging Bondi’s 2A Task Force…

Feds insist Second Amendment doesn’t protect machine guns [More]

Again?

And try figuring this argument out:

Machine guns are atypical weapons not protected by the Second Amendment because a reasonable person would not expect them to be used in militia service, the federal government argued Wednesday before an appeals panel.

Right. The Founders obviously intended the citizenry to resist tyranny with inferior arms.

I assume these government lawyer aren’t retarded, so that makes them goddamn liars.

If machine guns aren’t protected, the Second Amendment is a dead letter and anyone who maintains otherwise is a fraud.

Bondi Steps Up

Stephen Stamboulieh brings us some good news about Pam Bondi and DOJ doing something necessary and good by filing a brief in support of the Second Amendment, noting Hawaii trying to ban guns on private property without specific owner permnission effectively equates to a gun ban practically everywhere. This is a hopeful sign and we need to see more like this.

The challenge is another example of great legal navigation and piloting by Alan Beck.

As an aside, this is how “guntubing” ought to be, a subject matter authority articuately sharing knowledge and guidance, as opposed to mansplaining the work of others for clicks.

And pay attention to this, @ 7:15 in:

The Ninth Circuit needs to be broken up as a court. It’s too big, it’s way too powerful, and it does some really stupid things that we’re going to talk about in my 7 o’clock live tonight where I just lost $400,000 in that case.

That’s something we’ve talked about before.

From the People Running the ‘Second Amendment Task Force’

Government Opposes Compassionate Release of Gun Tuber Matthew Hoover For Terminal Medical Condition [More]

Read this. Let your blood boil. Then ask yourself why Pam Bondi, the ATF’s new supposedly “pro-gun” Chief Counsel, and that DOJ Civil Rights honcho we’ve been hearing such hopeful things about are going to allow this tyranny to continue.

Because they’ve been pulling this crap of modifying seized property into “illegality” for a long time. And again. And again.

And it’s not like they have legitmate delegated authority even if the items worked without forced engineering.

TheTask at Hand

We recognize the success of this Task Force will be vital. To that end, we promise to use our own resources to support the Task Force and collaborate with this administration in whatever way possible. We will stand beside you in Second Amendment litigation. We will provide administrative expertise as you decide how best to reform federal regulations in this area. [More]

That’s great, but aren’t some key people not being included?

Who’s Minding the Store? DOJ Siding with Letitia James Against Gun Companies

So, what gives with Podolsky’s very public filing, siding with notorious New York Democrat gun prohibitionists? And will AG Bondi and her new appointees now rein him in and slap him down? [More]

We’ve seen enough disconnects to make it fair to wonder if Bondi is being undermined or if she’s just talking out of both sides of her mouth.

UPDATE

I’ve submitted an update to this piece because, per GOA, DOJ reversed itself and is withdrawing from the case. If they’da listened to me from the start and included gun owner reps in their Task Force, they’d eliminate much of the uproar and embarrassing need to backtrack.
