Notes from the Resistance
“Eight years ago, you were entertained,” he said. “I forgive you.” [More]
28 years ago you said this. And you lied about saying this two years earlier:
“‘The issue which has energized me to get into this race is the recent attempt by certain Republican legislators to repeal New Jersey’s ban on
assault weapons,’ Christie said in a statement released (on April 14, 1993). ”In today’s society, no one needs a semi-automatic assault weapon.'”
The dark-money effort is called No Labels, and they’ve committed an eye-popping $70 million to put a third-party presidential candidate on the ballot in 2024. On Fox News on Sunday, West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin wouldn’t rule out running for president on the No Labels ticket. The very real risk is that Sen. Manchin—or another Republican-funded candidate—would peel away enough votes from the Democratic candidate to hand victory to the Republican candidate… [More]
I’m on MoveOn’s email list to keep apprised of what they’re up to.
This sounds promising!
A former GOP candidate in New Mexico has been indicted on federal charges in connection to a spate of shootings at Democratic officials’ homes after he lost his 2022 midterm election bid, court documents show. [More]
CNN is groping itself in ecstasy now that it’s finally got a Republican involved in “gun violence.”
With the guy’s prior record, you’d think Democrats who are all about felons voting wouldn’t have sued to keep him off the ballot. And the Stupid Party “leadership” failed, too: Instead of disavowing the creep, they played the “young Hispanic man, who turned his life around” card, as if Democrats still won’t paint them as a bunch of white supremacists.

Will you let politicians decide what rights you “need?” [More]
Tell NC Republicans the job won’t be done until freedom is achieved, we’re still a hell of a long way off from that, and now is no time for anyone who wants to be taken seriously to quit.
Scott argued he can unify the GOP with a positive, forward-looking message built around a compelling personal story and upbeat demeanor… [More]
I dunno… we’ve already seen some of the Swamp-protecting results of that “Wall Street backing”…
Never forget he picked Lisa Murkowski over Kelly Tshibaka. That and he’s a lying prior restraint/no real due process gun-grabber.
The fat cats want him because they think he’ll be able to diffuse accusations that they’re racists. If they think that’ll faze the Democrats one bit, they’re delusional.
The far left “OPB” was right. The Democrats, in their zeal for retribution, screwed up. They now have zero leverage. The Senate Republicans have demonstrated amazing courage and selflessness and now the Democrats are wetting themselves. [More]
If you’re an Oregon gun owner, thanking the senators for standing up for rights at no small risk to their own careers is the right thing to do.
And helping them do that this time out were the usual suspects from the Vichycon wing of the GOP, the useful idiot/self-serving swamp creatures who continually prove themselves adept at turning coats and stabbing backs. [More]
Nothing like seeing a “staunch supporter of the Second Amendment” carry the Democrats’ water for them…

Why is it I expect the Republicans to respond like Billy Bob Thornton?

Made inevitable by “lesser of two evils” political desperation…
Take the short-term loss to avoid long-term certainty, because as we’ve seen yet once more over in Texas, counting on most “staunch defenders of the Second Amendment” not to be lying whores is a sucker’s game where the house generally wins.
If betrayers aren’t made public examples of, others will see they too can get away with it.

Missouri’s governor would play a major role in St. Louis policing and prosecution under a bill praised by Republicans as a way to fight crime and criticized by Democrats as an attempt to take away local control from the Black-led city. [More]

That leads to the logical question of why the politicians would be safe when outnumbered by gun owners on one side of an artificial property line, and wouldn’t be if those same gun owners took one step over it, where they would find themselves in violation of the law? [More]

Hmmm…
And as for “red cities,” note that’s based on the mayor’s political affiliation, and much of what he can do is predicated on the composition of the council.
Besides, Paul Helmke was a “Republican” mayor.
Now let’s look at homicides where city government honors the Constitution and encourages the Second Amendment. Anybody got a list?
