The 'Grab Enough Guns to Tip Guam Over Act of 2020'

Johnson’s not joking about H.R.5717, and neither are the 18 Democrat co-sponsors, even though this travesty of a bill is as ridiculous as it is offensive and divisive.

There are all kinds of opportunities to creatively reach out and maybe even win some hearts and minds. I'd be no good at it for a number of reasons, but if such concepts appeal to you, and if you're not one of "we happy few, we band of essentials," it might end up being rewarding.

The Destroyer of Worlds

Less for its originality or plausibility than through its rhetorical simplicity and its undeniable narrative drive, Zinn’s People’s History has helped cause two generations of young Americans to believe that their nation is among the most culpable and unjust entities in human history. [More]
The problem is, the rebuttal will never be read or understood by the brainwashed millions who will fanatically embrace the lies and like all cultists, react to the truth like Dracula confronted with a cross.

What Do You Mean It Can No Longer Be Ignored?

Today, Josh Rogin, who is said to be as plugged into the State Department as any Washington Post columnist, was shown documents dating back to 2015 revealing how the U.S. government was worried about safety standards at that Wuhan lab. In fact, they were worried that one day, one of these experiments — including the one on bat coronaviruses — could escape and become a global nightmare. [More]

Included in link is our FOIA work against Moms Demand Action, Students Demand Action, Virginia county governments and 2A resolution, and nabbing the Illinois government’s scheme to use collected taxes from legal marijuana sales to fund gun control groups via grants.
