There’s a Difference Between ‘Antisemitic’ and ‘Antisubversive’

In rally for Lee Zeldin tonight, FL Gov. DeSantis invoked Jewish billionaire George Soros, who’s been the target of antisemitic tropes [More]

It’s nice to see that little bit of public whining so succinctly backfire in that smug @$$hole’s face.

There Can Be Only One

TRISTAN MANOS LD5 PC: This is to thank all who openly express yourselves and take the opportunity to present a position statement, one form or the other, on the matter of the artificial construct of so-called “dual citizenship”  … Please realize Singular U.S. Citizenship is the Ground Zero of our Civil Society. [More]

Some of the “inclusive” Vichycons in “leadership” have been giving him heat over this, using the “progressive” deception of trying to make his position seem bigoted instead of existential. My sentiments on the subject have not changed since I first warned against Arnhole…

And we see what listening to them about him got us.

Attn: Arizona Republicans

Eric Spencer, election attorney, will be running the GOP’s “War Room” on election day (Nov 8). He needs attorneys roving on the ground (troubleshooting calls for legal assistance at polling places) and in the war room (helping to answer calls/emails and troubleshooting legal issues). [More]

This is one of the most crucial election states. This latest edition of “Republican Briefs” has info activists need to be aware of.

What Can Brown Do to You?

Most disturbing is that UPS has sole and unlimited discretion over what documents they can require the shippers to turn over. This new policy gives UPS the unlimited power and discretion to examine and review any customer documents related to firearms sales. The shipper also must agree to turn over any documents UPS requests within five business days or risk the termination of their shipping accounts. UPS says It will use its newfound power to audit the books to ensure compliance with its new policies. [More]

So what do we make of their CEO being a Republican donor?

Elephant Walk

The Republican who lost Colorado’s U.S. Senate nomination to Joe O’Dea threw his support behind Libertarian Brian Peotter on Wednesday, calling the third-party nominee “the only conservative on the ballot.” [More]

He sounds good on what I could find, but I just spent five minutes trying to find Peotter’s position on immigration to see if that’s true or not.

O’Dea doesn’t say much either, including on 2A.  If you have good intel on either, feel free to comment.

Demotivated

Republicans are trying to diagnose suppressed rural turnout, too. Ryan Girdusky, a Republican political consultant, “blamed the results on messaging by the GOP that didn’t appeal to rural voters,” POLITICO reported. “Trump’s success in exciting those voters, he said, showed that they are motivated by issues such as crime, immigration, homelessness and education.” [More]

Who could have ever known that fire in bellies is what drives the engine?

Certainly not the “leadership”…

Short Story

S. 4986: A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to remove short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and certain other weapons from the definition of firearms for purposes of the National Firearms Act, and for other purposes. [More]

Seeing if he gets more than five cosponsors will be a good indicator of which Republicans really are “staunch supporters of the Second Amendment.”

That said, if they don’t take the Senate this is going nowhere, and introducing it now strikes me more as a pre-election publicity stunt than anything– even with Marshall’s term not ending until ’27, this still draws attention to the GOP and co-sponsor Crapo is running now.

Sorry to be so cynical, but I can’t figure out any other explanation.

With ‘Republicans’ Like These…

Texas will fight to block 18- to 20-year-olds from carrying handguns [More]

Well, you can buy the Ted Olson excuse, that regardless of how he feels, the AG is charged with defending existing state laws, or you can just as easily conclude that “Tea Party conservative” Paxton has reasons of his own to douse the fire in gun owners’ bellies before November to help turn the state blue.

Violent Political Rhetoric and Extreme Disarmament Agenda Belie Tim Ryan’s ‘Bipartisan Unifier’ Claim

“Some of those answers will come from Republicans, not the extremists that we are dealing with every single day,” Ryan continued, to show how conciliatory he can be. “We’ve got to kill and confront that movement, but working with normal mainstream Republicans, that’s going to be really, really important.” [More]

So if you don’t let radical gun-grabbing Democrats have the final word on who qualifies as a “normal mainstream Republican,” you’re an “extremist.”
