A New Republican

Samuel Ronan, a former Democratic state and national candidate, attempted to run as a Republican in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District against GOP incumbent Rep. Mike Carey. To do so, he signed a declaration of candidacy — under penalty of election falsification — swearing he was a member of the Republican Party. [More]

Stephen and Ranjit oughta love this guy.

Good News for a Change

HB 4145 started as another one of the Democrats’ annual attacks on liberty, property, and the Constitution. In its final form, it became a bill that delayed the worst provisions of MZ 114 and bought gun owners more time to avoid arrest and fight this insanity in court. If the Oregon Supreme Court invalidates MZ 114, HB 4145 does nothing. Either way, that’s a positive outcome. [More]

Only made possible by gun owner activism.

UPDATE: In Other News

This year, the Republican primary is once again crowded, but only 3 candidates have any realistic chance of winning. Of those three, only Ed Diehl has been an open advocate for gun rights. [More]

At least he’s not afraid to talk about it...

The First Rule of Fight Club

According to the report, Hudson informed officers that he was carrying a firearm and voluntarily handed over a 9mm Smith & Wesson handgun. [More]

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

Just what Minnesota needs to take the focus off Democrats.

“Poor choices were made” …? These guys never stop being politicians, do they?

Charge Engen with falsification/obstruction, or don’t charge the rest of us if we’re caught lying to police. I don’t care how he is on guns, except for how being discredited invites attacks on all his positions, and what I read here makes me think he’s a squish who’s OK with taking a scalpel with a light touch to RKBA.

Nicholas has more.

The People Have Spoken

From Texas Scorecard, via email:

How that translates into electability is anybody’s guess, but anyone who says Texas will go solidly and reliably “red” may have a point, if you go back to the original understanding of the term.

And that’s just the way Joe Rogan likes it.

We’re the Only Ones Oppositional Enough

Gov. Gordon didn’t mince words when discussing the Second Amendment Protection Act. He called it an “embarrassment,” noting all 23 sheriffs in Wyoming oppose it. The bill currently sits on the governor’s desk. He vetoed a similar bill last year. [More]

Here ’tis.

So, “law and order Republicans” can be every bit the impediment Marxist Democrats can be…? Who knew?

And yeah, I understand the name “Dorr” evokes certain … expectations.

Republicans snatching defeat from the jaws of victory…

And, of course, when the blow the midterms, the narrative will be it’s because of the MAGA agenda.

As Bill Clinton mentor Carroll Quigley reminds us:

“The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can ‘throw the rascals out’ at any election without leading to any profound or extensive shifts in policy”

That’s the plan and they’re sticking to it.

Date with Destiny

Destiny Wells announces congressional run in Indiana’s 7th district [More]

All you need to know:

That and the Indiana State Rifle and Pistol Association has fewer Facebook followers than I do (and my limited social media presence is tepid at best), and nothing about her on its website.

I trust no Hoosier gun owners will be surprised when she carries out her threat...

Maybe they think the Republicans will keep them safe…

Hey, I remember this story…

Enemy Strength

Republican women are 14% more likely to own guns than Democrat men. [More]

That may not be a fair metric since one party knows how to define genders. Still, it’s telling.

And it also illustrates why new gun owners are nothing to crow about.

In terms of total numbers, I wouldn’t be starting any civil wars if I were that outgunned…

With ‘Republicans’ Like These…

And he’s a big proponent of “gun-free zones.”

Meanwhile, he wants to torpedo Thomas Massie.

My friends, ya got trouble.

The Shape of Things to Come?

Trump warns Republicans they have to win midterms or he’ll ‘get impeached’ [More]

How much responsibility for that will fall on the shoulders of those dousing fire from gunvoter bellies with equivocation, fecklessness, and outright betrayal?

How much of that will fall on him?
