Gillibrand Lying about Gun Past and Media Helps Her Get Away with It


By allowing Gillibrand to mask the extent of her deception without challenge, Sharyn Alfonsi, Alisyn Camerota, “60 Minutes,” “New Day,” CBS and CNN and the rest of the DSM are deliberately allowing their viewers and readers to be lied to. [More]
Evidently, she thinks shamelessly lying to the American public on national television is "brave."

Follow the Money

It turns out that Amash has business interests in China. As U.S. tensions with China continue to rise, the political risk to his investment in the country has increased. [More]
That certainly merits both an obstruction of justice and a foreign collusion investigation.

Besides, It's for the Children

The Republican Leader of the U.S. Senate from Kentucky and a top Democrat from Virginia officially introduced a bill on Monday which would increase the minimum age to buy cigarettes and any other tobacco products from 18 to 21 years. [More]
Hey, if you can't trust Republicans and Democrats working together for a good cause in the spirit of bipartisanship with unlimited, undelegated and usurped powers, who can you trust?

A Numbers Racket

The report points to places such as Custer County, Colorado, where the firearm suicide rate is 32 per 100,000 – four times the state’s average, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In February, the county’s board of commissioners passed a resolution that says the state’s red flag law is “in direct conflict with provisions of due process, as outlined in the 4th Amendment, and contradict the right to bear arms.”  [More]
Help me out here, because nothing quite brings out the ADD in me like math. Noting that for Custer County "As of the 2010 census, the population was 4,255," if next year two people kill themselves, will they do a headline about epidemic numbers doubling?

Coming to America

[T]hree police departments were responding to “multiple [911] calls” about “10-12 Somali teen males armed with hammers chasing people,” also with “several injuries reported.” [More]

Nothing to See Here

Antioch church shooter’s goal was to kill ‘a minimum of 10 white churchgoers ...’So once again, where’s the mainstream media? A racially motivated shooting at a church? That’s usually big news. [More]
That doesn't help with the narrative:

We're the Only Ones Recidivist Enough

Deputies in Florence have arrested the former chief of the Columbia Police Department on warrants issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms...In 2018, Scott was arrested a couple of times on drugs and firearms charged.[sic] [More]
So free-lancing didn't work out?

Enough Tool for the Job

Washington homeowner tried to defend his property with a stick. When that didn’t work, he used a gun. [More]
Sometimes it's obvious from the start that power tools are the way to go.

The bit about transients in the cul-de-sac made me think about when I was still in SoCal, and our city leaders mandated separating recyclables and leaving them at curbside. Talk about an attractive nuisance drawing all kinds of ragpickers who had no other business there...

We're the Only Ones Ride-Sharing Enough

Bizarre moment a shirtless man steals a police cruiser after officers stop to help him - then leads them on 150MPH chase [More]
I guess it's not fair to judge until you've driven a few miles in his cruiser...

Voice of Experience

Dov Marhoffer, a Holocaust survivor on the Advisory Board of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, is advising Jews to arm themselves, in this new video ... Mr. Marhoffer laments how children are being used to corrupt the desperate Jewish call to arms, Never Again!, which became symbolic after WWII. [More]
Interesting, that der Kinderführer wears an armband...

Wrong-Thinking is Punishable

White Democrat Privilege

Exclusive — 2016 Arizona Police Report: Cocaine Pipe Found in Car Rented by Joe Biden’s Son Hunter Biden, Authorities Declined to Prosecute [More]
I find that curious when juxtaposed against this:
Why Black Voters Are Gravitating to Biden
After all, the NAACP points out drug sentencing disparities:
African Americans and whites use drugs at similar rates, but the imprisonment rate of African Americans for drug charges is almost 6 times that of whites.
It's the same cognitive dissonance we see from those railing against the police killing blacks and then supporting politicians who want the cops to be the "Only Ones" armed.

Those Who Cannot Remember the Past

Four in 10 Americans Embrace Some Form of Socialism [More]
I'm surprised it's not higher, what with the selective emphasis on ignoring and/or disparaging heritage in "public education," the manipulation of the economy to where a large swath of citizens no longer feel invested in it, the influx of foreigners into the electorate, and a never-ceasing propaganda barrage.

That ain't all a coincidence.

And herds gonna herd. If there's a way out, it won't be through the chute.

Terms of Surrender

Cory Booker: Americans should be 'thrown in jail' if they won't give up their guns [More]
History repeats itself.

Surrender your guns or Shartacus will send men with guns to kill you. That's quite the Opposite Day "progressive" plan to tackle "gun violence."

Can you imagine being dumb enough to vote for this power-mad incompetent?

How About Wrangling an Answer Out of Them First?

I want to stand before the CEO of Levi Strauss wearing my Wrangler jeans and let him know he will not enable the disarming of the American people. [More]
Not giving aid and comfort to Levi I grok, but why reward Wrangler?

They're perfectly happy to accept undeserved support from gun owners, but then duck answering why they got a wardrobe credit in a Bloomberg gun-grab "PSA."

Perhaps, Col. West, your louder voice and longer reach will draw enough attention to get an explanation.

Brahman-Sense Gun Control
