Denying them due process and stripping them of a fundamental right is one hell of a way to show appreciation.

Sounds Like a Plan

And semiautos/magazines…?

Record Gun Sales Not Necessarily a Mandate for Political Change

So, “we’re” winning? If you listen to some “gun pundits,” this shows the tide is turning and gives gun owners cause to celebrate. The enthusiasm would be more credible if there were some believable numbers showing new gun ownership will translate into votes against Democrats, the party of citizen disarmament, in enough numbers to eject the gun-grabbers from power and replace them with Second Amendment stalwarts.

Harvey Keitel’s NSFW “Well, let’s not start ******* **** *****’* ***** quite yet” line from Pulp Fiction comes to mind.

Happy Talk with Steve ‘n Andy

Rep. Andy Biggs: “The Democrats just don’t have anything to appeal to anybody” [Watch]

Can’t prove it by me.

Just offer them the chance to draw and quarter developing minorities and future Democrats and “blue” is the priority most American women will choose. It doesn’t matter what else Biden & pals do or how corrupt they prove to be.

Besides which, does anybody see any serious moves against continued election rigging, or will the dialog continue to be dominated by the “baseless conspiracy theory” narrative?

The other alternative will be elections won’t be the Number One concern on everyone’s minds…

A Man of Which People?

Never Trump, Democrat, and Mitt Romney donors have swarmed to Utah Speaker of the House Brad Wilson’s campaign for U.S. Senate. [More]

Meanwhile, primary competitor Trent Staggs says:

Given Americans’ clear desire to protect themselves, I reject the idea that the Second Amendment is outdated. Every dictator who has seized power from a free society has first seized their weapons. The people who want to take our guns are the same people responsible for our crime wave.

Meet the New Boss, Same as the Old Boss

Republicans exude optimism as fourth speaker candidate heads to the House floor [More]

Mike Johnson:

…has introduced the Fix the Immigration Loopholes Act in order “to protect minors and asylum seekers, while reducing fraud at the southern border.”

You know, future Democrat voters.

Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Won’t get fooled again…?

And They’re Listening to Him Why…?

Jeffries calls Jordan a ‘clear and present danger’ to democracy [More]

You have to wonder what kind of principles-free Republicans would let that subversive racist influence their judgment.

Will Republican Presidential Candidates Ever Give Clear 2A Rights Answers?

Firearms News will be exploring where these contenders stand on the Second Amendment, in both a separate analysis documenting actions, positions, and statements, and via a questionnaire, the subject of this article, designed to produce unequivocal answers. [More]

Finding out who shines us on, who sends us boilerplate, and who is not afraid to lead on the Second Amendment, could be useful to know for the primaries.

Naming Names

Several Republicans are still holding out against Jordan’s bid. The House Judiciary Committee chairman can only afford to lose four conference members due to House Republicans’ slim majority. Those who stand in opposition include Reps. Don Bacon (R-NE), Mike Lawler (R-NY), Mike Kelly (R-PA), Carlos Gimenez (R-FL), Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL), Victoria Spartz (R-IN), Freedom Caucus member Ken Buck (R-CO), and John Rutherford (R-FL).

They prefer Hakeem Jeffries’ strategy…?
