Open Letter to Sen. Grassley on David Chipman’s ATF Director Nomination

 

It would be not just appropriate, but the Senate Judiciary Committee’s duty, to determine the truth of all the allegations posted on CUATF. [More]

That the allegations are posted at the same source that first brought word of Fast and Furious ought to count for something, and certainly merit being looked into. Please help me convince him by sending him this via his contact form or via social media (Twitter or Facebook).

Spider & the Fly

 Anarcho-Marxists, Rich Marxists, and Mindless Marxists [More]

Including:

  • Antifa thriving on campus 
  • Northern California Antifa group discussing killing police
  • Communist Goal #42
  • Antifa Communists Riot and Trash London, Paris, Italy on May Day
  • Hammer & Sickle flags at Austin TX May Day demonstration
  • and more...
Something "we" don't use nearly enough: Pointing out that Marx was a racist.

My Kind of Town

 Chicago crime: 46 people shot, 7 killed during weekend violence [More]

If only we had "universal background checks," banned "assault weapons" and closed the "boyfriend loophole!"

Forget it, Jake. It's Chi-Town.

We're the Only Ones Terrorizing Enough

 Heavily Armed Biden Goon Squad Storms Trump Supporters’ House Looking For Pelosi’s Dirty Laundry ... COUPLE INTERROGATED AT GUNPOINT FOR OVER TWO AND A HALF HOURS WITHOUT BEING READ THEIR RIGHTS OR SHOWN A SEARCH WARRANT AFTER NO-KNOCK RAID [More]

Say nothing to them. How much clearer do they have to make it which side they have chosen?

Final Push

I can’t tell you how critically important it is to keep up the pressure so we can get Constitutional Carry across the finish line! [More]

Unless you're one of these @$$holes...

And it won't actually be "Constitutional carry," as restrictions like "gun-free zones" and due process-denying disarmament will still apply, but it's a good step in the right direction.

It's a shame poltroons like Dan Patrick and other holdouts need to be pleaded with. They should be leaders in this.

The Elephants in the Room

 

Looks like I need to find a photo of a 4WD all-terrain Weinermobile.

Here's the story, an unabashed enemy hit piece, of course, but who gave them the ammo?

More to the point, who gave them the footage? I'd heard a while back that one of the insiders was making a Judas deal with the NY AG to save his own skin but could never get that confirmed. Or did it come from Ack-Mac as an act of F*** Y**! spite?

My other thought is if it can be proven it came from the NY AG leaking it to the media, that could have some exploitable implications.

This Should End Well

 California is giving 76,000 inmates, including violent and repeat felons, the opportunity to leave prison earlier... [More]

On the bright side, think of all the new "gun violence" the blood dancers will be able to exploit to demand new edicts aimed at disarming you and me...

All the News That's Fit to Omit

2 dead, 23 hospitalized after vessel capsizes off coast of San Diego [More]

Leave it to the Associated Press to not just bury the lede, but to suppress it altogether.

Who thinks that's not deliberate and calculated?

So Much for Ourselves and Our Posterity

 US population rises to 331,449,281, Census Bureau says... The release marks the official beginning of the once-a-decade redistricting battles.  [More]

Thank goodness the increases aren't due to the haters!

No worries. Shannon says replacements are on the way?

It looks like the Vote Freedom First President and the rest of the "moderate" Republicans will get their "vision" after all. And funny, now that he no longer needs our votes, how he's out there pushing for "reasonable gun reform measures."

Good thing none of this has anything to do with that "single issue"!

A Prohibited Person

Former Oklahoma resident had unknown charge of felony embezzlement for not returning VHS tape rental 21 years ago [More]

Let's hear it for "commonsense gun safety laws"!

And yeah, the charge is being dropped, but until it's expunged there's still that NICS prior restraint so many of our "gun rights leaders" were bragging about "fixing"... Maybe Larry Keane could explain why if he thinks fixing it is good, he wouldn't consider expanding it to be better...?

Commie Bedwetters Scared of Girls


The first conflating mangina the breathless "journalists" talk to really fits a familiar profile. But what caught my eye is the second hysteric, Sen. Richard Pan. You'd think as the son of Taiwanese immigrants he'd appreciate freedom and abhor violence monopolists, instead of hanging up a portrait of a communist stooge.

What is it with our "progressive" leaders and their influencers?

Best Laid Schemes ... Gang Aft Agley

This is a very precise phrasing of NRA’s situation, in terms of dismissal for bad faith, that is ulterior motive, filing. The judge sees the issue precisely, and if you look at it with that precision, the only answer is: no, the bankruptcy court does not have jurisdiction, and must dismiss the Chapter 11 case. That will be a disaster for NRA’s hopes. This weekend’s board meeting is just spinning the wheels, approving a plan that will never be accepted by the court because the case will already have been dismissed. That will leave NRA a New York corporation, and leave the NY Attorney General free to dissolve it. [More]

My family's recent adventures in forced reprioritization have kept me from telling you about the NRA In Danger blog. If you want to be informed on what's going, there is no better place to consult and to let your friends know about.

As long as I'm on the subject, here are a couple other websites I call your attention to:

I haven't had a lot of time to devote to NRA's self-inflicted sucking wounds, so if you know other websites that offer such well-presented insights, feel free to inform the rest of us via comments.

Back for a Limited Engagement

With our family health scare apparently starting to settle down and life approaching a relative normalcy that now includes a bit of walking on eggshells, I'm going to try getting back to limited operations this week to include blog posts not related to article announcements. 

That said, please don't overload me with news links -- I can probably get to a handful, but there are still behind-the-scenes meatspace demands that will preclude me fielding several dozen tips a day -- the days of 30+ blog posts a day are over for the foreseeable future.
