The Coveter Constituency
While most commentators are focusing on Midwestern “battleground” states, the American far-left is looking further South. The Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO) and its allies are looking to the millions of black, Latino, and low-income white potential voters in the South and Southwest who lean heavily Democrat, but traditionally vote in low numbers.

In other words, they can’t justify their political biases scientifically but they still want the government to pass citizen disarmament laws over everybody.

‘Fast and Furious’ Report a Reminder of Deliberately Unresolved Accountability
What that ultimately means is the 2020 elections are probably the last best hope any of us have, but only if Republicans take back the House, and then, only if they see a political advantage in exposing criminal cover-ups of years gone by. Barring that, it will be a job for future historians. [More]Some of us are committed to keeping this story alive in spite of the political and media establishments.

Fool Me Once, Shame on You
NRA endorsed? My first thought was how many times they have been wrong. [More]Mine too.
And that, of course, is the problem. All indications are this Reeves guy is good, so it's telling that a Fairfax endorsement can actually complicate things for him.
I've been wondering if -- due to the Wayne-created scandals -- politicians will start to view NRA kudos as a liability. And among disappointed gun owners, credibility lost is awful hard to regain.

2020 is Trump's to Blow with Gun Owners - By David Codrea [More]Amazing how many read headlines and then infer with belligerent certainty what something is about. I'm also finding out all kinds of stuff about myself, my politics and my motives I never knew.
I see some wondering which poster I am and what screen name I post under. I'm not and I don't. I have neither the time nor the patience to put up with most of what I see represented on forums and I do things and will face all -- even bold chatroom warriors with avatars -- openly and under my own name.

Farhner, of Kingston, Missouri, was driving himself to the emergency room at the Kansas City VA Medical Center in May 2018 because of an infection from a hernia surgery he’d had there.

He was semi-conscious when he got to the emergency room and was transferred to the University of Kansas Hospital, where he died two days later at age 66. [More]How were they supposed to know a guy driving himself to emergency might be in agony and desperate, with no time or tolerance for being harassed and prevented from getting help, and with more urgent things than hospital parking lot rules on his mind?

I was very publicly against that bill, but at no point did I want to lose more Republican seats to the Democrats, as we did in Wist’s formerly competitive House District 37. That strategy is what will turn our state blue for good. Even former Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo came out against RMGO and Brown’s method of forcing “politicians to dance to his tune.” [More]I know plenty of gun owners have major beefs with Dudley and I can't speak to the charges of threats and extortion, but I will challenge the contention that gun owners are better served in the long run by continuing to reward GOP turncoats with power.
