And Thank You for Your Service

A bill to prohibit the Department of Veterans Affairs from sending information on veterans or (beneficiaries) who are assisted by a fiduciary to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) list without a judicial ruling that they are a danger to themselves or others was reintroduced Feb. 2 in Congress. [More]

Funny, how there’s not a Democrat in the bunch…

Pinning Down the Pinups

Why Some Members of Congress Are Wearing AR-15 Assault Rifle Pins [More]

Because theatrical gestures are accepted by shallow thinkers as substitutes for meaningful actions?

Forgive me if I read the name “George Santos” and wonder if self-serving motives trump sincerity and why anyone should believe a chronic and habitual liar.

And forgive me if I wonder why Rep. Anna Paulina Luna didn’t see fit to even mention the right to keep and bear arms in her campaign platform.

Look At Us, Everybody! We’re Posturing!

U.S. Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Bill Hagerty (R-TN), along with 43 of their Senate colleagues, today introduced the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, which would allow individuals with concealed carry privileges in their home state to exercise those rights in any other state that allows concealed carry, while still abiding by that state’s laws [More]

Yeah, well where the hell were the Republicans when there was a chance to actually pass it?

Much Ado About Nothing

This bill removes short-barreled rifles (barrels of less than 16 inches in length) from the definition of firearms for purposes of the National Firearms Act. [More]

Here’s a truth about every single “pro-gun” bill we see coming out of the House that we then see so many gun owners getting excited about: Without a Senate Republican majority and either a Republican president or enough votes to override a veto, they’ll all go nowhere.

And even so, that makes some big assumptions.

We can appreciate the sentiment, but I’d appreciate it more if they’d acted like this whenever they’ve been in a position to make it so.

With Republicans Like These…

In his decision on Friday, Fairfield County Common Pleas Judge Richard E. Berens wrote that based on four legal standards, he found it unlikely that the state would be able to prevail in the case. [More]

“Shall not be infringed” and a preemption law passed by the representatives of the people aren’t legal standards?

And Ohio Vichycons consider this robed bench-fouler a win…

Walking the Talk?

And despite a lot of these laws, gun ownership in the black community has been going up, because black people recognize that the government’s not going to be there to save them, it’s not going to protect them, and that they need to be able to defend themselves. [More]

Yeah, you can’t tell by this.

A Chronic and Habitual LIAR!

Embattled U.S. Rep. Santos was drag queen in Brazil pageants, say associates [More]

And his Mom wasn’t at the World Trade Center on 9/11.

I see there is no shortage of Republican excuse-makers pointing out all the Democrat lies as if that somehow excuses this. It does not.

Relying on a proven liar is asking for catastrophe. This guy’s problematic record is showing him to be pathological, which is always dangerous to have around.

Sir Wilfrid explains.

And yeah, I realize the same could be said for plenty of other Republicans.

With Republicans Like These…

Gun Owners of America has learned that the FIRST gun bill that House Republicans plan to vote on is… NOT a pro-gun bill. The bill would expand the FBI’s power to punish Americans who attempt to legally purchase a firearm from a commercial gun dealer by reporting them to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. [More]

My new rep and one of my senators are enemies, so no use writing them.

It really seems to me a more effective tactic would be an en masse “WTF?” blast to Kevin McCarthy.

There’s Nothing New about California Republicans ‘Snubbing’ Gun Owners

So why should California Republicans (and those from other states where they think they can get away with it) do anything more than give lip service to gun owners, assuming they even need to do that? After all, they’ve been getting away with serial betrayals for years. [More]

What incentives do they have to change if they continue to get away with it?

You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet

Why having 51 vs. 50 senators matters way more for Democrats than you think – It’s not just one extra vote; it’s a change in Senate procedure that gives Democrats additional power. [More]

And don’t forget to factor in the usual suspects.

That’s the way The Swamp wants it.

The Riddle of Steele

Michael Steele says Musk doing Twitter Files while arguing for free speech undermines ‘central tenets’ of … free speech [More]

There’s a shocker.

This is what happens when the Vichycons so desperately want a minority face to hide behind and deflect racism smears by the commies that they pick a damn Democrat-at-heart.

It’s a Big Club and You Ain’t In It

Will everyone get along? Anna Wintour joins the Bidens, Republicans, Democrats and celebs for White House state dinner with Macron – as GOP leader Kevin McCarthy brushes off question about dining with investigation target Hunter [More]

Look at all those names.
