Notes from the Resistance
Alabama congressman’s bill would make AR-15 ‘the National Gun of America’ [More]
He knows it doesn’t have a chance in hell with a Democrat Senate and Biden, so forgive me if this feels like a self-serving and disingenuously patronizing headline ploy, which is unfortunate because it detracts from an otherwise pretty good record on RKBA and on the greatest political threat against it.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis Endorsed by George Soros [More]
No, he didn’t. But he did sow seeds of divisiveness that those saying he “endorsed” him picked up like idiots.
The way this is being propagated is very misleading and irresponsible.
And from the looks of things, intentional.

And based on supporting candidates like party switch-hitter Arlen Specter, Pat Toomey, Tom Ridge, and Brian Fitzpatrick, a critical mass of Pennsylvania Republicans is demonstrably willing to throw gun owners under the bus in exchange for the false promise of “less government.” They’re the useful idiot “bourgeoisie” the Democratic Socialists are counting on being asleep. This also explains why disarming them is such a priority. [More]
With “Republicans” like Fitzpatrick, who needs Democrats?
U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) led a group of 25 additional Senate colleagues in reintroducing the Hearing Protection Act (HPA). The HPA, S. 401, would reclassify suppressors to regulate them like a regular firearm. The measure would benefit Idaho’s recreational gun users and provide them better access to hearing protection equipment. [More]
Why? Where were you guys when you were the majority?

UPDATE
Figures NSSF “proudly welcomes” it.
The mayor of East Hanover, New Jersey, and all four members of the township council have switched from the Democrat to the Republican Party. [More]
So when are they going to do something about this?

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…
[Via AK]
Both slain council members were elected Republicans. [More]
Well, hey, bash a fash, right?

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu takes a major step toward running for president – The moderate governor is launching a national group to test the waters for a 2024 bid [More]
Just what we need to counter extreme demands on our freedom and advance our rights. A “moderate.”
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.

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?
[Via Jess]
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.

Crenshaw Introduces Bipartisan ATF Accountability Act Following Pistol Brace Ban [More]
And the odds of this doing anything besides polishing up some tarnished 2A creds…?
That and make it look like Democrat Henry Cuellar is anything other than an enemy.
[Via Lane]
They didn’t want Constitutional Carry nor Open Carry to pass because the idea of their minority neighbors being armed scared them. [More]
Sound like anyone we know…?
[Via Remarks]
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…
[Via JG]
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.
[Via Remarks]
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.
And yeah, I realize the same could be said for plenty of other Republicans.
[Via Jess]
Oregon Democrats continue to grab at it all with a virtually unlimited plunder war chest, and Oregon Republicans are pretty much self-defeating when they’re not being useless. [More]
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.
[Via Jess]
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?
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.
MSM: Democrats Can’t Be Election Deniers [More]
Just like blacks can’t be racists.
Oh, and I apologize. It’s only “whites” that shouldn’t be capitalized.

‘Arizona had a successful election,’ Democratic Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs said ahead of certifying her own victory [More]
There is precedent, you know…
Michael Steele says Musk doing Twitter Files while arguing for free speech undermines ‘central tenets’ of … free speech [More]
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.
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.
Senate candidate Herschel Walker is facing renewed allegations of carpetbagging, ahead of next week’s runoff election in Georgia, for claiming a special property tax break in Texas and making statements about living in the Lone Star State while campaigning to unseat Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga. [More]
Between this, the baby mamas, and the vulnerability to the abortion charges, I’m wondering if the GOP and Trump were just so enamored by celebrity potential and exploitable race that they failed to do any basic vetting at all. Either that or Team Swamp knew and wanted this outcome.
This is ridiculous, and to be just finding out about it now is inexcusable. And pointing out how Democrats do it misses the point. Anyone who doesn’t realize they don’t have to play by the rules is negligently naive, and besides, “our side” is supposed to walk the talk.
If America had properly functioning democratic elections where only legal citizens voted secretly and securely after first establishing their identification, Republicans would have a hundred-seat margin in the House. Instead, centrist dullard McCarthy will “lead” a threadbare majority ripe for rancor and future Democrat flipping. In the Senate, globalist shill Turtle McConnell succeeded in manipulating Alaskan election law to ensure that despicable Democrat Lisa Murkowski — and not Alaskans’ actual Republican nominee — retained her aristocratic sinecure in the U.S. Senate. [More]
There is no one lower than a Quisling. That GOP Inc. exalts theirs tells us much.

Republicans likely will give Biden gun control [More]
I wish I could definitively say they won’t, but with some of the names he cites…
Still, even Chris Murphy says now is not the time. Then again, since when has anyone with a brain believed anything he said?
[Via Michael G]
The 2024 Senate battle has begun and the electoral map does not favor Democrats [More]
And think of all the justice we’ll get then!
Just look how many people fell for it in ’22!
Dolan insisted, “The Second Amendment is not in any way violated by this bill.” [More]
That’s because Dolan is a f***ing liar:
State Senator Matt Dolan, a “moderate Republican,” may as well be a Democrat as far as gun owners are concerned. Described by CNN as a “non-Trump Republican … in the McCain lane, the Romney lane…” Dolan penned an op-ed in support of the state’s proposed STRONG Act, essentially a “red flag” edict that promises due process before gun confiscations without really delivering it, and requires “background checks” on private sales, and adds liability penalties to sellers. And no surprise here, Dolan admits “I understand this bill probably doesn’t go far enough for some and goes too far for others.”

Bobulinski’s reference stems from correspondence involving Hunter Biden where 10% of a Chinese business deal will be “held by H for the Big Guy.” Critics have long contended “H” is Hunter Biden and “The Big Guy” is Joe Biden. [More]
Not only did the Bureau ignore this before the mid-terms, but they also waited until afterward to admit Mar-A-Lago wasn’t everything they cracked it up to be.
UPDATE
And MSNBC is engaging in utter lying gaslighting. The thing is, most of those who watch it know and don’t care.
