Notes from the Resistance
“Led by Dustin Burrows, these representatives are now negotiating with Democrats to install a Speaker who would undermine the conservative agenda. This is an unacceptable betrayal of our party and our values.” [More]
He appears to be a lip service Republican on 2A.

Abolish the ATF?: Rep. Burlison wants to eliminate ‘disaster agency’ he says has been violating 2nd Amendment- Rep. Eric Burlison plans to introduce a measure that then-Rep. Matt Gaetz previously put forward in 2023 [More]
Without abolishing the “laws” it enforces, we’d just be kicking the can down the road and into potentially worse hands.
Besides, thanks to Vichycon gun-grabbers, it’ll never even make it out of the House. And what do you think Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins will have to say about it in the Senate?

Albritton, R-Wauchula, told reporters that as a life-long and consistent supporter of law enforcement, he will oppose any open carry legislation in 2025: “I trust my law enforcement officials. They oppose it … and I stand with them today in opposition.” [More]
Because after all, who works for whom?
He’s in a solidly Republican district, the primary was canceled, and he’s got his seat ’til ’28, so what’s he care what you think?

Senate Republicans are rejecting a proposal floated by some advisers to President-elect Trump to take the job of conducting background checks for high-level nominees away from the FBI and give it to private investigators. [More]
I mean, it’s not like FBI has an agenda or anything…
Deep State Über Alles.

Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin is urging Democrats to change their messaging to say that “Republicans want to kill your kids.” [More]
It’s just SOP for her.
I love that she’s attacking Morning Joe and WaPo in what appears to be a monomaniacal quest to make herself even more irrelevant and hated by everybody.
Then again, it looks like she realizes that:
MAGA world outraged after now-deleted tweet reveals Mitch McConnell’s secret plot to derail Trump’s agenda in the Senate [More]
Ask yourself what about his past actions and collusion would make him side with the freaked out DOJ…

There are only two things that are certain in Oregon in 2025. Taxes and Republican surrender. [More]
Most would be like that everywhere if that’s what it took.
Don’t look for things to change in the Beaver State as long as the RNC and national “conservative” groups and PACs view principled primary challengers to be liabilities to seats the Party still has, and with the great fundraising hope being a traitorous gun-grabber.
What would it take to start changing that?
Maybe have a gun owners “strike” and sit out those races with Quisling candidates, and let the GOP know if they want a seat at the table, it needs to support us — if not out of principle, then desperation works, too.
Give up even those seats to the Dems? Why not? How much worse could it get?
Besides, we’ve got Bruen and a Supreme Court that’s poised to grow in our favor.
If you have a better plan, let’s hear it.
Once again, we have seen that the biggest threat to committed, constitutional, Republican candidates is…the Oregon Republican Establishment. [More]
We need to spread around the policies and beliefs Florida Senator Rick Scott holds as he runs for Senate GOP leader.
He is ULTRA-MAGA and deeply conservative. [More]
That’s funny.
I could have sworn he was part of The Swamp.
A judge rejected Tesla founder, X owner and billionaire Elon Musk’s request to move the civil lawsuit against his $1 million giveaway filed by the Philadelphia district attorney to federal court. The lawsuit was remanded back to Pennsylvania state court Friday by U.S. District Judge Gerald J. Pappert, a former Republican Pennsylvania attorney general appointed to federal court in 2014 by President Barack Obama. [More]
Do Vichycons really believe Republicans will ever be serious power players again after they sabotage MAGA?
As Mike reminded us, we’ll still get to vote— just not for them.

Dennis has been one of the most stalwart defenders of gun rights and liberty in general… So it would seem like a no brainer that Republican legislators would be all in for Dennis. Not so fast. House Rep Kim Wallan, Republican of Jackson County has now endorsed…Tobias Read. [More]
Letting Republicans continually get away with betrayals results in no incentive for them to stop. And you end up with this.
A Crowd of Republicans Will Join Harris at a Pennsylvania Stop [More]
And not a one of the useful idiot Democrat proxy has-beens and never-weres currently in office or running for election because they are all unelectable.
But it’s all about illusion, isn’t it, DNyuz.com, an “Armenian…site … notorious for plagiarizing content from major news sources, copying articles verbatim and embedding their advertising code for profit… considered questionable due to its lack of transparency, poor sourcing, and use of sources with poor fact-checking records,” which has nonetheless “gained significant traffic after the Drudge Report began linking to it…”
That’s how I found it:
And we’re supposed to believe Democrat enablers are “right of center”?
[More]
The ever subversive Matt Drudge continues making unreported in kind campaign contributions to the Democrat/Harris/Walz campaign, this time joining forces with “conservative” Matt Labash.
Do they believe we’ll ever vote for Vichycons if they sabotage MAGA or are they really just clandestine Democrat operatives?
And the truth of the matter is, Republicans need gun owners more than we need them. [More]
When it comes to the Second Amendment, every damn one of these characters can’t resist distancing themselves and showing the media what a big “but” they have.
And to those who are still giving him a pass and making excuses because it could be a losing issue, if that’s the case, he’ll lose anyway– he’s not shying away from abortion, and we’re talking similar constituencies. And naturally, Dems are already telling voters he’s an “extremist.” And “a homophobe.”
Dems even call moderates Nazis, so he’s got nothing to lose and gun owners — who don’t even know his name weeks before the election — to gain. Plus, he can’t erase his NRA grade– that his opponent isn’t exploiting that tells me she’s not anxious to see this can of worms opened either.
How people presume a politician afraid/ashamed will stand for them when the going really gets tough without any basis is beyond me. And it’s the guy on the inside who can hurt you the worst.
The late RNC Chair Lee Atwater is reputed to have asked about gun owners, “Who else are they going to vote for?” We’ve seen the results of wishful thinking, gutlessness, and betrayal. I’m not getting how keeping that door perpetually held open for all Republicans –like it has been in the years I’ve been calling them out on it –works to our advantage.
In for a penny in for a pound:
Why did Mickey Edwards endorse Kamala Harris? [More]
Why? Because he’s senile!
That and he’s always been an oath-breaking Vichycon:
I Was a Republican Congressman. I Had to Do Something About Gun Violence.
“A lifelong conservative,” eh, Oklahoman (part of the USA Today network/a Gannett Publication)? That’s an old trick where anyone with principles consistent with the Bill of Rights and limited government can be smeared as an “extremist.”
Blackface photo shakes up toss-up House district in NY – Rep. Michael Lawler, R-N.Y. is facing controversy over a 2006 Halloween costume in which he dressed in blackface [More]
So we could get a racist gun-grabbing Democrat instead of a racist gun-grabbing Republican?

I may start calling them URH: Unpopular Republicans for Harris
And naturally, the execrable Michael Steele is part of this cabal of Vichycon clowns who crammed so many RINOs into the Big Tent there was no room left for elephants.
If they prevail, there will never be a credible reason for voting Republican, making it fair to conclude that’s been the plan.
Liz Cheney and Colin Allred: An unlikely alliance with political repercussions [More]

Attorney General Labrador Leads 29-State Coalition Against Maryland’s Bizarrely Unconstitutional Gun Ban [More]
Changing the subject, there’s a case study to refute Vichycons for Harris here– Larry Hogan was a moderate lump. Yet Democrats paint him as ““recruited by extreme Republicans to run for the Senate.”
They’ll exploit the hell out of such useful idiots’ betrayals and then line them up by the limepit when they’re no longer useful.
