I’ve been hearing a great deal lately about Israel and a “preemptive strike”.
This would make it sound like Israel is striking first before Iran or one of it’s proxies Hezbollah, hamass or the Houthis can strike Israel.
Um, no. On October 7th there was the ceasefire in place that the Harris-Biden crime junta so long for. The hamass violated it and killed 1400 innocent Israelis and kidnapped more.
According to the Daily Wire dated on 25 August 2024
In the more than 10 months since Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack, Hezbollah has fired more than 6,700 rockets, missiles, and explosive drones at Israeli communities leading to hundreds of thousands being displaced from their homes.
And
Approximately 100 fighter jets with the Israel Air Force (IAF) struck more than 40 launch areas, preventing what officials said was a much larger imminent attack in which Hezbollah was preparing to fire as many as 6,000 rockets and drones at Israel.
If you really want to look at the rocket attacks in Israel, check out this site, The Jewish Virtual Library. It’s current to June 12, 2024
If you look at that massive amount of rockets launched into Israel already, long before Israel sent planes out on 25th of August, you must admit, far, very far from it being a preemptive strike, it’s a retaliatory strike.
And yet, the whole media world is alive with “Israel” and “Preemptive strike”.
Nonsense.
While the left yammers on about the “poor poor Gazans” who elected hamass and went into Israel with hamss, there are hundreds of Israeli citizens in the north that have been unable to go home for months!! They didn’t vote for a government that in it’s charter says it will annihilate an entire group of people (Jews) anywhere in the world. The Gazans did, and they stand by that as well. I haven’t heard cnn expressing any concern for them.
The media is no more honest in reporting on Israel than they are on reporting on politics.
This is the same mindset you see the left use against armed citizens. “You shouldn’t have shot him, he only had a 16” butcher knife and you had a gun! You didn’t need to kill him, you could have shot him in the knee. Why he didn’t even touch you with that knife”.
Why are good people expected to suffer harm before they can defend themselves? I honestly don’t have a clue except the left is a cult of death.
I listened to a couple of podcasts recently that really got me to thinking about how words are used. The first one is fascinating from beginning to end. Dr. Gil-White was a Tamar guest during Covid, and he was pretty much correct on everything. He said in his country (Mexico) there is a saying “He who hits first, hits twice.”. The whole thing is great, he talks about many topics but they all tie together. He maintains America is protecting Iran here, not Israel.
Well boy howdy, do the Demoncrats ever have a task in front of them! Even tougher perhaps than building something that would actually serve America, you know, they country they claim to love, namely, a border wall. No no, that’s not needed or wanted according to the Demoncrat party. No instead they’ve chosen to build the Walz. A third rate politician enamored with the Chinese brand of Communism.
I’m sure we’ve all heard how brave #TamponTim carried weapons in war. Oh? The hashtag? One of his major accomplishments besides allowing his cities to burn during the George Floyd riots to enact social justice for a drug addicted thief who once pointed a gun at the stomach of a pregnant woman during a robbery was putting tampon dispensers in the boy’s bathroom in schools. Boy if nothing else screams poor judgment, one would think that would! But I’ll see if I can up the ante.
Since we’re on the topic of the George Floyd riots, lets look at how the people #TamponTim is closest to dealt with the riots that burned businesses to the ground and saw many attacked by the likes of Antifa and BLM.
His wife Gwen kept the windows open because she enjoyed the smell of the city burning to the ground.
The wife of Democrat VP-pick Tim Walz said during an interview in 2020 that she kept her windows open for as long as she could so she could smell the burning of tires rioters set on fire during the Minneapolis-area riots in response to the death of George Floyd.
During the 2020 riots, cities like Minneapolis burned, costing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage. Gov. Walz has been criticized for his slow response to the destruction and violence by the left-wing protesters.
“We had more sleepless nights during the riots,” Gwen Walz told an ABC News affiliate back in July 2020. “I could smell the burning tires, and that was a very real thing. I kept the windows open as long as I could because I felt like that was such a touchstone of what was happening.”
Well, perhaps his daughter is slightly less deranged than her parents? Nope.
On May 30, 2020, Walz’s daughter, now 23, reportedly reposted and responded to an account on X, formerly Twitter, that urged all protesters to “GET OUT NOW” because the National Guard and SWAT were allegedly on their way to the scene of the Minneapolis riots. In the post thread, she insisted to protesters that the National Guard “WILL NOT be present tonight.”
Her reported post stated that “there is a lot of misinformation that is further spreading fear and chaos at the scene of the protests..the guard can not be sent in within minutes. it takes time for them to deploy because they come from all over the state. to be clear, the national guard will not be present tonight. just because someone asked for something doesn’t mean it’s happening right away or even happening at all. i don’t know about swat but what i do know is the guard will not be present arresting people tonight.”
And how about the radical jihadi Walz is so crazy about? Illan Omar?
Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar’s daughter Isra Hirsi, retweeted a list of supplies for “comrades” who are rioting in Minneapolis.
Isra Hirsi is the co-founder of US Youth Climate Strike and her Twitter bio says she ‘hates capitalism.’
Isra Hirsi retweeted a post from Twin Cities DSA (Democratic Socialists of America): Want to help out your comrades protesting at the 3rd precinct (at Lake and Minnehaha?)
Here’s a good list of much needed supplies (except for milk! Water is always better for eyewashing than milk!! Please don’t bring milk!)
Golly gosh, gee whillikers! Just think of all the primo information his daughter would have to sell out the whole country instead of just a state full of innocent citizens if her dad is ever near the white house.
What did old Kamel-toe herself do during the riots? Did the former prosecutor and VP nominee strongly urge stiff sentences for those that rioted and burned the livelihood and hard work of innocent Americans to the ground? Did she object to the innocent people violently attacked? Naw, in true Demoncratic form, she sided with the criminals. Demoncrats are sometimes predictable.
Vice President Kamala Harris promoted the Minnesota Freedom Fund, an organization that has since used donor contributions to bail out violent criminals, in a May 2020 blog post.
Harris encouraged her readers to help “the protestors on the front lines” of the riots following the death of George Floyd by donating to the Minnesota Freedom Fund in the blog post, first reported by the Washington Examiner. The Minnesota Freedom Fund went on to bail out multiple convicted murderers and other violent criminals in the years following the riots, according to court records.
Now we’ll hit the big one, the “weapons of war” comment.
As I’m sure everyone knows, #TamponTim didn’t go to “war”, he went to Italy and then misrepresented his service and his rank.
The AR-15 is a semi-automatic firearm that bears some superficial similarities to those “weapons of war,” but does not work in the same manner. They’re not the same gun, and yet he stood there and said they were.
But it’s good to be a demoncrat if you’re dishonest, the media will lie for you. Like a rug and without a payoff.
Vice President Kamala Harris has already been an integral part of the most extreme anti-Second Amendment administrations in American history. But things will get even worse for responsible gun owners if Harris takes charge next January.
During her very first campaign rally in Wisconsin after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, Harris pledged that her administration would “pass red flag laws, universal background checks, and an assault weapons ban” – three pillars of anti-Second Amendment activism. Prominent anti-gun groups have flocked to Harris and offered their enthusiastic endorsement, including Everytown, the Community Justice Action Fund, and the Newtown Action Alliance.
And perhaps one might wonder why would Old Kamel-toe and #TamponTim be so dead set on leaving ordinary Americans defenseless against the criminals they embrace?
Because they’re tyrants, or at least aspiring tyrants.
Let’s look at Kamel-toe first. Jessie Watters did a great breakdown of what the price controls she wants would bring. It’s a bad idea, and not even an original bad idea.
“The proletariat must rise!” Harris shouted in front of a backdrop of a large hammer and sickle flag with armed militants flanking her side. “In order to preserve the rights of the working class the government must seize the means of production and murder all capitalist pigs!”
Harris announced her new platform after pitching a few new economic policies this week that included price caps for food, centralizing economic power, condemning capitalism, and calling for the arrest of all bourgeoise scum.
Yeah, it’s the Bee but it’s not far off.
And #TamponTim? He had Minnesota national guard fire paintballs at innocent civilians standing on the own from porches during his draconian covid lockdown rules.
A major study at Oxford University which tracked equal numbers of vaccinated and unvaccinated kids shows that only the vaccinated kids are dying unexpectedly and experiencing myocarditis and pericarditis.
Expect health authorities to ignore this because otherwise it would make them look bad.
Horrible judgment!
Are American criminals the only ones Walz supports? Not on your Aunt Nelly!
It seems some of the former citizens of the UK have finally caught on to what their ruling betters are doing to them and they aren’t onboard with having their daughters and wives raped or their shops looted and have spoke out.
Pity for them, they’ve been electing leftists for too long now.
Sources within the British government said Prime Minister Keir Starmer remained committed to retaining power and keeping the people of the UK enslaved under his totalitarian regime.
At publishing time, Russia was rumored to also be in the early stages of making plans to liberate the United States in the event of a Kamala Harris presidency.
Perhaps one of the most, if not the most troubling aspect of this train wreck of a VP candidate is his close association with muslim jihadis in addition to Illan Omar.
A resurfaced video depicts vice presidential nominee and Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz praising a Hitler-promoting Muslim cleric as a “master teacher,” after his campaign denied that they had a “personal” relationship.
Walz hosted the individual — Imam Asad Zaman — at an Islamic Center event in 2018, where he applauded his wisdom and expressed gratitude for the “lesson[s]” he taught him, according to an unearthed video obtained by The Washington Examiner and published on Tuesday. Zaman has publicly promoted claims that Hitler was a misunderstood hero and declared “[Palestine’s]… right to defend itself “the day Hamas invaded Israel on Oct. 7 and killed roughly 1,200 people.
Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, on at least five occasions as governor of Minnesota, hosted a Muslim cleric who celebrated Hamas‘s Oct. 7 attack last year on Israel and promoted a film popular among Neo-Nazis that glorifies Adolf Hitler, the Washington Examiner found.
The imam, Asad Zaman of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota, joined other Muslim leaders in May 2023 for a meeting about mosque security with Walz’s gubernatorial office in Minnesota. Zaman also spoke at a May 2020 event to call for peaceful protests with the governor during the riots in Minnesota sparked after George Floyd’s death. In April 2019, the cleric delivered an invocation before Walz’s state address — just months after Zaman called for an end to a government shutdown at a press conference with Walz in January 2019.
Zaman, moreover, attended a May 2019 event that Walz hosted for Ramadan, social media posts show.
Walz’s ties to Zaman could serve as problematic baggage for the Minnesota governor as he campaigns with Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee. News of the ties also comes after a Washington Free Beacon report this week found Walz spoke at a 2019 event with an antisemitic scholar who has defended terrorism against Israel.
…
In recent years, Zaman has also appeared to equate Hamas committing terrorism to Israel defending itself. State records reviewed by the Washington Examiner show Walz’s administration has awarded over $100,000 in funding to MAS Minnesota.
The Muslim American Society was once described by federal prosecutors as being “founded as the overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States,” court records show. The MAS, which the United Arab Emirates designated as a terrorist group in 2014, came under fire in 2019 after a video surfaced online of children at an event held by its Philadelphia chapter calling for the murder of Jews.
“We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque,” two young girls said at the event, according to the Times of Israel.
How much you might ask, does #TamponTim support hamass? A lot, $100,000 of taxpayer money worth.
Vice presidential nominee Tim Walz gave an extreme Muslim cleric’s group $100,000 of public funds and has hosted him at official events as governor of Minnesota, The Washington Examiner reported Friday.
Asad Zaman has been a mouthpiece for Hamas for many years, publicizing its propaganda on his social media.
On October 7th, the day the terrorist organization invaded Israel, massacring 1,200 people, including infants, and abducting some 250 to hold as hostages, the imam said that he “stands in solidarity with Palestinians against Israeli attacks.”
And this is the man that Kamel-toe chose over the Jewish governor of Pennsylvania, a state she needs, though she may get it anyway. But, I guess considering where she got her “JOY” campaign slogan, that could have been uncomfortable.
No wonder she picked Walz
I’ve heard people ask did Kamel-toe even vet this guy? Did she know how horrible he is? I think that’s naive at best. Of course she did. She picked exactly what she wanted. A Jew hating radical communist. Just like herself. Someone that has no problem using tyranny to rule over innocent defenseless subjects. One would think the fact he abandoned his 87 year old mother who had recently had heart surgery during covid would turn her off. Tim Walz Says During Covid He Isolated and Left His 87-Year-Old Mother, Post-Heart Surgery, Alone in Her Home to Fend For Herself. But I don’t think Kamala is too worried about families herself. She chose and got exactly what she wanted. And that should tell you everything you need to know about the dumpster fire that is the Demoncrat party.
Among other gadgets which the ATF-Troop unilaterally declared to be NFA items — machine guns, specifically — was the forced reset trigger and like items.
Having considered the above-referenced filings and applicable law, th4e Court concludes thatthe Defendants engaged in unlawful agency action taken in excess of their authority. Therefore, the Courts GRANTS Plaintiffs’ Motion for Summary Judgement and DENIES Defendants’ Cross-Motion for Summary Judgement.
Note: The judge didn’t say the ATF exceeded its authority and leave it at that. He specifically and explicitly stated that they acted unlawfully; they broke the law. And he called out their BS on claiming FTRs turn semiautos into machine guns.
An FTR is a device that forcibly returns the trigger to its reset state. In the commercialized FRT designs at issue in this litigation, the trigger is forcibly reset by the hammer when the bolt carrier cycles to the rear. A “locking bar” mechanically locks the trigger in its reset state, preventing the user from moving the trigger rearward to function by releasing the hammer, until the bolt has returned to the in-battery position and the firearm is safe to fire.
[…]
When firing multiple shots using an FRT, the trigger must still rest after each round is fired and must separately function to release the hammer by moving far enough to the rear in order to fire the next round.
TL;DR: It’s still firing semi-auto, idiots. And you don’t get to change the definition of machine gun to encompass whatever.
Plaintiffs’ cgun definition as applied to FRTs ontend that the ATF’s broadened view of the machinegun definition as applied to FRTs is an unlawful expansion of the agency’s authority.Plaintiffs are correct.
Interestingly, there seems to be no mention of CHEVRON deference to agency interpretations, or Loper Bright‘s reversal of such deference. The judge simply noted that both plaintiffs and defendants agreed of how FTRs work, but that the ATF improperly called semiautos machine guns.
Confusing stocks and magazines? Stocks made of a bunch of cartridges? High-priced ammunition company exchange shares? Who knows? I had a brief impulse to contact Cardin’s office and ask what he was talking about, but…
The fact is, when you’re a tyrannical SOB who wants to regulate, control, or ban everything, it doesn’t really matter if you’re also an ignorant, tyrannical SOB.
As for “mandatory background checks,” sales through Federal Firearms Licensees already have mandatory background checks. And the ATF has already published a rule requiring anyone who might sell, or buy, a gun to be an FFL required to conduct “mandatory background checks.”
It’s almost enough to make me miss New York Congress-scum Major Owens, who at least had the honesty to file bills to simply repeal the Second Amendment outright.
You know, it’s been my observation that the ones that hate communism the most, are the ones that actually know what it is. Not the pig ignorant college students that are running around the streets acting like moneys flinging poop at the zoo. The Russians and Ukrainians I’ve met have a very strong conservative streak, all were supporters of President Trump, and most were strong Second Amendment supporters. Years ago there was a Demoncrat member of the House of Reps in my state, he spoke every year at the Second Amendment rally held in the spring. He had a very compelling presentation. He and his family had come here from Germany and shortly after arriving here had some untoward experiences. One of the first things he did as soon as he was legally able was to purchase a gun. He was a free citizen now you see, he was a free citizen and he was entitled to defend his life and that of his family. Of course that was years ago, when common sense, values, principles and decency were on both sides of the aisle. When Demoncrats waved American, not Ukrainian flags, when they were concerned about, not even more concerned, just concerned, about America’s borders more than another country’s. A country we’ve sent billions to that has shut down elections, shut down church services and seized land from religious organizations, all in the name of “democracy” which gives you and idea of their idea of “democracy”. Don’t exhale yet Republicans, I’m coming for you next.
Recently there have been quite the votes going on in the swamp. The uni-party is spending more to defend another country’s border and civilization than they are ours. They’ve sent more to help Ukrainian citizens and oligarchs than they have the victims of disasters in East Palestine, OH and Lahaina, HI., citizens under attack from an illegal invaders in every state of the union. Joe’s handlers have been shipping them in since he assumed control. Of course after the massive spending bills passed, the Demoncrats waved little Ukrainian flags. Well, they’re honest about that I guess. It’s who they represent. Sadly it’s Americans paying their salary. It’s not just what is coming across the border. Who other than demoncrat politicians benefits from this? Those paying more in taxes? Those losing their jobs to an illegal, those who had their retirement home taken over by illegals? Who? I can not believe the majority of Americans want this. Well, maybe the elites living in their bubble, but real Americans? No. Nor are they going to sign on to this and continue to vote for it. I’ve seen many videos of people in Chicago and NY expressing strong support for President Trump and the America First agenda, though the Mainstream media can’t and won’t believe it, it’s true. Many Americans are not as stupid as the press gambles they are as they continue to lie to them. And one would think the Demoncrat party would quickly begin to re-evaluate their policies, and yet, they aren’t. In fact, they’re doubling down, almost as though they don’t have to answer to voters. What kind of political system is that?
On of the recently passed pieces of tyranny allows spying on American citizens without a warrant. Something that has been violated by the FIB in ways that most wouldn’t believe. There are actually 3 different categories or titles in the FISA warrant program. Title 1 Title III and Title VII. Title VII is where the much abused section 702 comes in.
In a late-night ballot on April 20, the U.S. Senate voted to reauthorize a controversial spying authority. President Joe Biden signed it into law the following day.
The authority in question, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), has come under increased scrutiny in recent years by privacy and civil liberty advocates in the wake of a series of abuses.
After rejecting a series of amendments designed to strengthen civil liberty protections—including an amendment by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) to require a warrant to search Americans’ Section 702 data and another by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) to prohibit federal law enforcement from purchasing Americans’ data from third-party brokers—the Senate reauthorized the program 45 minutes after it lapsed.
House Speaker Mike Johnson has delayed a vote on two bills relating to FISA Section 702 extension and reform, making it likely that the unconstitutional Section 702 will be renewed without change until April 2024.
Johnson has reportedly refused to take a side on this issue and continues to change his stance. Johnson previously said he would bring both bills to the floor.
The House of Representatives on Monday passed a Motion to Table the Motion to Reconsider H.B. 7888, which passed on Friday to renew FISA 702 and allow warrantless surveillance of innocent Americans.
This was a betrayal of Americans.
Shortly before the final passage of H.B. 7888 on Friday, the House rejected a commonsense amendment from Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), which would have required a warrant to spy on Americans. However, 86 Republicans voted for authoritarianism, with Speaker Mike Johnson casting the decisive vote.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on April 14 defended his crucial vote against an amendment that would have required intelligence agencies to get a warrant to search Americans’ data under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
….
That final passage came after an amendment by Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) to require a warrant to query Americans’ communications and other data failed in a rare tie vote. Mr. Johnson, who, as speaker, doesn’t always vote, cast the decisive vote that killed the proposal, prompting outrage and condemnation from some conservatives.
….
During an April 14 appearance on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Mr. Johnson defended that vote, saying that a warrant requirement is “not helpful.”
He insisted that Section 702 is an important tool that has stopped other terrorist attacks like 9/11.
“Remember, that’s how we killed terrorists. That’s how we stopped terrorist plots on US soil,” Mr. Johnson said. “That’s why we haven’t had another 9/11 since that terrible tragedy.”
Does he not understand who, exactly the current junta considers “terrorists”?? Is he totally clueless about parents being dragged out of school board meetings? Is he as dumb as Kamala “Kneepads” Harris? Or is it something else?
Former Trump official Kash Patel reminded Americans of the hundreds of thousands of times the DOJ-FBI used FISA to spy on Americans.
According to an official intelligence document the FBI illegally used FISA 278,000 times to spy on Americans including their political enemies like President Trump, Trump donors, and January 6 families.
This comes from the 2022 memorandum on FISA abuses.
On page 29 of the report: 23,132 separate queries on J6 protesters to find evidence of possible foreign influence despite having no indication of foreign influence related to the query terms used.
On page 31 of the report the analysts admitted to 278,000 non-compliant FBI queries of raw FISA-acquired information.
The FIB is far from the only government agency that isn’t following it’s own rules.
“The Department of Justice confirmed to us last night that the ATF agents involved in the execution of a search warrant of the home of Bryan Malinowski weren’t wearing body cameras,” Cotton and Boozman said in a joint statement. “We will continue to press the Department to explain how this violation of its own policy could’ve happened and to disclose the full circumstances of this tragedy.”
“Mr. Malinowski’s family and the public have a right to a full accounting of the facts,” the Republican lawmakers added.
So the alphabets have gone rogue, no one is holding them accountable and neither party is standing up for U.S. and our new “conservative” speaker of the house has already sold us out.
New Speaker same as the old speaker
So, what if it is something else? What kind of system are we living under where the fruit of our labor is taken from us and given to illegal invaders, to people who chose not to work and play the system, to foreign countries? What is that system called?
If you go back to the opening of this column, a cup or two of coffee ago, I was speaking about people that hate communism because they’ve lived under it, I’ll tie this up, or Hogg tie it, if you will.
Meet Lily Tang Williams, she spoke to David Hogg aka #MoneyHogg who is desperately trying to remain relevant.
Pesach starts tonight, when we celebrate the miracle of freedom, when G-d took us out of slavery into freedom and living with laws, morals and a relationship with him. Choose that, choose good, do good, pray often.
Imagine my shock to find out according to Heidi Przybyla on MSNBC, of course, the only people reading news and spewing opinions dumber and less informed than CNN, also #FakeNews, that I, and in fact many of you are “CHRISTIAN NATIONALIST!!” GASP! Heidi works for a bastion of truth known as “Politico”. And oh the shock, the horror, the NERVE!!! What has set little Heidi off? Is she off her meds? Someone said something she didn’t like? She saw a picture of someone she disapproves of? Closer to the first actually. I’m very sure Heidi went to college. Not to be confused with the institutions of higher learning in the past, no today’s “colleges” are institutions of higher indoctrination. And they turn out very ignorant people like Heidi.
Heidi’s shock and horror comes from a lack of understanding in an ancient, archaic document known to many of us as “The Declaration of Independence”. To make this even richer, Heidi is Politico’s “investigative correspondent”. I’m saying she’s overpaid.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–
I’m pretty sure Haym Solomon would be as shocked as I and many others are to find out we are “Christian Nationalists”. Haym Solomon is in large part responsible for the decisive victory of the War for Independence. Haym was Jewish.
Heidi says that regular Christians aren’t those nasty “CHRISTIAN NATIONALISTS”, I’m guessing a few Christians are baffled and a few insulted that she thinks “regular Christians” don’t observe the Ten Commandments. It’s number two on the list, so it’s pretty high up there.
You shall have no other gods before Me. You shall not make for yourself a graven image, nor any manner of likeness of anything that is in heaven above, that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them, nor serve them. For I the L‑rd your G‑d am a jealous G‑d, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children of the third and fourth generation of them that hate Me; and showing mercy unto the thousandth generation of them that love Me and keep My commandments.
But this is just the latest in the media’s long train of lies. In fact, if you read this part
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Media,
and substitute the word “media” for government, you get at the real crux of it. How long do we continue to give the media a scrap of credibility?
The media lies, almost always. A nice summation from Tim Pool, with a video from Prager University.
More misguidance from the legacy media, but independent sources, like Tim Pool of Timcast that are becoming well known and are giving the other side of the story with suppressed information.
Voices like Tucker Carlson have an even bigger audience now that he is free from FOX and is far more open. The gloves and the filters are indeed off.
You’ll note most of these clips come from Rumble, as YouTube is part of the racist Google empire and they are big into the censorship game. Racist? You’ve heard about their Gemini chatbot, right?
The MSM, #FakeNews keeps telling everyone, keeps telling U.S. that Donald Trump is a fascist, and all his deplorable supporters are fascist and evil Christian Nationalist while they pump up Beijing Biden and the Biden crime family and the junta more than likely being run by Barry Sotero. So when they switch out Biden for Moochelle Obama later, it will really be Barry’s fourth term. But who is using lawfare to go after their leading political opponent? Who has political protesters being held in prison in conditions so bad some of the asked to be transferred to Gitmo? Who has the FIB going after parents at school board meetings and rounding up Grandmas who went to a protest? Not Donald Trump. But this isn’t about Trump, as Tim said. It’s about what the media peddles as purveyors of truth.
This is about a media that covered for child and puppy torturer and killer Anthony Fauxci, they hid the truth about an experimental injection that can and does change DNA. An injection that was always part of a DOD project, a DOD that has biolabs in Ukraine.
Why would anyone ever believe the media about a gun related story?
Who are the fascists?
This last one? This last one is a bonus, he’s from Scotland and there is so much truth I pray in this video. I pray it’s true. The voice of truth is like a balm of healing.
There have been a couple of high profile stories in the news lately, and this is going to be at least a two topic column, but I feel they tie together.
Topic one, law-enforcement. Recently there was a horrifying incident of two NYC police officers attacked by illegal invaders. Cops allegedly beaten by rowdy migrant mob near Times Square — with suspects later freed without bail This is bad enough as it is, but what did “tough” New Yorkers do? Um, nothing, they filmed it at most. I guess to an extent I get it, if the illegal invaders are willing to attack armed officers any citizen stepping in is really taking a risk, but how many native born Americans were in the area? Honestly, I don’t know. But were they not concerned when the invaders got done with the cops they might not start on them? Or are they saving that for later. Alvin Bragg turned them loose without bail, so I’m sure they’re quaking in their American paid for Nikes, just do it. Gov Hokum is now trying to talk tough, but I think the only ones that believe her are as brain dead as Beijing Biden.
Contrast that with the recent horrific shooting at the KC Chiefs victory parade near Union Station. There are 3 suspects, at least two are juveniles. Um, I don’t think juveniles can buy guns in Missouri. Could be wrong, but don’t believe I am. A radio show host opined chances on them being products of the great society. No dads in the home. I did see a photo of one man handcuffed and it was no juvie. Add to that the difference in response to the shooting, apparently by-standers saw one of the attackers and started yelling get him as he ran through the running crowd trying to escape the mayhem. Two men, not cops, real men, unlike New Yorkers, tackled him and brought him down and held him for cops. A gun flew out of his jacket or hand and the wife of one of the men scooped it up.
But in those stories, neither man mentions tackling a juvenile. Interesting no?
The response from the Obiden junta was to trot Dementia Biden out to call for an assault weapons ban. The response from Travis Pfizer-Swift was to call for more gun control. I’m kind of guessing he’s more out of touch with his base than his main squeeze is hers. But hey, it’s KC, a blue city, so maybe not. But Mr. Pfizer-Swift recently showed his great courage and athletic prowess at the superbowl by attacking an elderly walrus. An elderly walrus who was trying to comfort people at the mass casualty. Unlike Mr. Pfizer-Swift.
Also good in KC, the massive amount of cops present for the parade ran towards the mayhem, unlike say Uvalde…or Parkland FL.
So I would say the “caliber” of people hired to be police matters. Except of course in Colorado. Where they are now hiring illegal invaders to be police and fire department. Oh no, I can’t make this up.
So soon, if you live in a blue state, because like all really terrible ideas on the left, this will spread, law-abiding citizens can be arrested by illegal invaders. Arrested for what you ask? I dunno, “hate speech” against illegal invasion?
So, you know who would be really “great” for those jobs? The Chinese nationals streaming across our southern border! Twenty thousand since the start of fiscal year 2024. Why, they’re in great shape already, they have great shooting skills and I listened to a clip of Gordon Chang talking about the Chinese nationals crossing Border Czar Kamela’s southern border. At the end of January he said several of them in more than one location have been spotted 3 weeks after crossing the border taking target practice with sniper rifles and pistols. He said normally when people cross the border they are thinking “where do I live” “where does my next meal come from” they don’t work on their shooting skills unless the reason they are here………I wanna know how they got sniper rifles and pistols. What kind of President would allow this? Oh the one that has had even more millions pour in the Xiden center! Even more than before! I wonder if he threw in the spy balloon oversight for free? And yes, The House Impeached Mayorkas—What’s Next? I maintain he needs to be stripped of his pension.
So, what else can illegals do besides be police and firemen? Why, they can vote!
How did they get here? We paid for it. Are paying for it. Will continue to pay for it.
I listened to a Patrick Bet-David podcast the other day, you can start here if you want the part I’m referring to, or listen to the whole thing. The topic at this point is immigration. They had been talking about the response of the Demoncrat party supporting hamass, that many Jews like many blacks are waking up to the realization that the Demoncrat party is not their friend. They are friends of the illegal invaders. But one of the co-hosts, Vinny brought up it may not matter. He had them put up this map.
Voting ID required by state
The states in light grey require no ID to vote, the next darkest shade of grey is ID but no photo required. It takes 270 electoral votes to win the Presidency. If you add those two categories of no ID required and ID with no photo you get 217 electoral votes……no wonder the illegals at the border say they’re voting for Xiden. They may well be. And as Adam pointed out, what do they know about our culture? Our laws? Our issues? Nothing, they’ll just vote Xiden because he is a “good” man.
And that my friends, is why the Demoncrats feel safe to keep robbing U.S. to send hush money to Ukraine. They aren’t worried about elections and they have imported an army to be ready.
Ah yes, another day which will live in infamy. Goodness know people who love citizen control seem to be drawn to it. I’m passing this along from a list I’m on, those that can drop a note, please do so.
The Department of Justice has put forth a proposal amending ATF regulations to implement the provisions of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act that broaden the definition of when a person is considered “engaged in the business” as a dealer in firearms which would require that individual to acquire a Federal Firearms License (FFL).
This proposal defines, among other things, the following to be dealers:
Anyone who sells or offers for sale a firearm within 30 days of purchase.
Anyone who sells or offers for sale firearms that are new or like new in their original packaging.
Anyone who makes or maintains records in any form to document firearms purchases.
Any violation of this regulation would result in asset forfeiture, fines, and/or imprisonment. This proposed regulation is essentially a back door attempt to establish a national gun registry, which is illegal. A national registry is the first step for gun confiscation.
Before this proposal can go into effect there must be an opportunity for citizens to make comments for and against it. The Comment Period ends December 7th.
I am asking each of you to submit your comments objecting to this egregious proposal. You can do this by going online to Regulations.gov and referencing Docket Number ATF 2022R-17 or by mailing a letter (postmarked December 7th or before) to:

RE: ATF 2022R-17 To whom it concern: On behalf of __________, a _____ of __ (members, participants pick one), we are writing to object to several provisions of the proposed 27 CFR Part 478. We operate what you would consider to be a gun show. The proposed regulation goes far beyond the language and intent of the new provisions of law set forth in the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (“BSCA”). In particular the proposed rulemaking is looking to 18 U.S.C. §921(a)(21)(C) and (22) for support for the definitional provisions being supplied for presumptions as to those “engaged in the business” of selling firearms and selling fire arms with an intent “to earn a profit” as set forth in the proposed regulation. 18 U.S.C. §921 (a)(21)(C) provides: The term “engaged in the business” means–
(C) as applied to a dealer in firearms, as defined in section 921(a)(11)(A), a person who devotes time, attention, and labor to dealing in firearms as a regular course of trade or business to predominantly earn a profit through the repetitive purchase and resale of firearms, but such term shall not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of his personal collection of firearms; (emphasis added) Please note this provision states to predominantly earn a profit. The presumptions put forth in the proposed regulations presume that the sale of one firearm for a sum more than the person paid for it constitutes a sale for a profit and requires the person to be a licensed firearms dealer. We submit that this interpretation is beyond the statutory language to “predominately earn a profit”. We also submit that it fails to take into account any other expense or time value of money associated with the sale of the firearm, which is a part of any normal calculation of “profit” and hence is beyond the proper basis of an interpretive regulation. Many of our ________ (members, participants) expend substantial sums to attend our events. These costs would be factored into any reasonable definition of “profit”. But more importantly the presumptions put forward are contrary to the statutory exceptions as to who is a dealer “but such term shall not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of his personal collection of firearms”. (see above) Many of our table holders are engaged in sales for their personal collections. But the proposed presumptions do not recognize this exception. Further, the proposed regulations conflate together “sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection” and “for a hobby”. The two provisions are separate. The “for a hobby” provision allows a person to sell, exchange or purchase firearms on an occasional basis for a hobby, without being required to obtain a license. The “for a hobby provision” and the “for a personal collection” provision are two separate and distinct items. These provisions relate back as well to the provision of “to predominately earn a profit”.
Therefore, the person who purchases or sells firearms occasionally as a collector or for a hobby is not a firearms dealer, and not required to be licensed. The proposed regulations do not account for this and go beyond the statutory mandate. The proposed regulations provide: Section 478.11 provides in part:
Dealer. Any person engaged in the business of selling firearms at wholesale or retail; any person engaged in the business of repairing firearms or of making or fitting special barrels, stocks, or trigger mechanisms to firearms; or any person who is a pawnbroker. The term shall include any person who engages in such business or occupation on a part-time basis. The term shall include such activities wherever, or through whatever medium, they may be conducted, such as at a gun show or event, flea market, auction house, or gun range or club; at one’s home; by mail order; over the Internet; through the use of other electronic means (e.g., an online broker, online auction, text messaging service, social media raffle, or website); or at any other domestic or international public or private marketplace or premises. * * * * * Engaged in the business— * * * * * (c) Dealer in firearms other than a gunsmith or a pawnbroker. (1) A person who devotes time, attention, and labor to dealing in firearms as a regular course of trade or business to predominantly earn a profit through the repetitive purchase and resale of firearms, but such term shall not include a person who makes occasional sales, exchanges, or purchases of firearms for the enhancement of a personal collection or for a hobby, or who sells all or part of the person’s personal collection of firearms.
* * *
Whether a person is engaged in the business of dealing in firearms requiring a license is a fact-specific inquiry. Selling large numbers of firearms or engaging or offering to engage in frequent transactions may be highly indicative of business activity. However, there is no minimum threshold number of firearms purchased or sold that triggers the licensing requirement. Similarly, there is no minimum number of transactions that determines whether a person is “engaged in the business” of dealing in firearms. For example, even a single firearm transaction or offer to engage in a transaction, when combined with other evidence (e.g., where a person represents to others a willingness to acquire more firearms for resale or offers more firearms for sale), may require a license. A person shall be presumed to be engaged in the business of dealing in
firearms in civil and administrative proceedings, absent reliable evidence to the contrary, when the person— a. Sells or offers for sale firearms, and also represents to potential buyers or otherwise demonstrates a willingness and ability to purchase and sell additional firearms; b. c. Spends more money or its equivalent on purchases of firearms for the purpose of resale than the person’s reported gross taxable income during the applicable period of time;
* * *
(iv) Repetitively sells or offers for sale firearms—
i. That are new, or like new in their original packaging; or ii. Of the same or similar kind (i.e., make/manufacturer, model, caliber/gauge, and action) and type (i.e., rifle, shotgun, revolver, pistol, frame, receiver, machinegun, silencer, destructive device, or ‘other’ firearm);
* * *
(4) Where a person’s conduct does not otherwise demonstrate a predominant intent to earn a profit, the person shall not be presumed to be engaged in the business of dealing in firearms when the person transfers firearms only as bona fide gifts, or occasionally sells firearms only to obtain more valuable, desirable, or useful firearms for the person’s personal collection or hobby. The underlined language deviates substantially for the statutory provision of selling firearms to “predominately earn a profit”. Selling or offering to sell firearms and being willing to buy does not in and of itself evidence that this is being done to “predominately earn a profit”. Most who collect firearms or engage in the sale of firearms for a hobby are willing to buy or willing to sell, but this in and of itself is not establish by a preponderance that they are doing so to “predominately earn a profit”. The provision that a person who spends more money
than their reported gross taxable income on purchasing firearms for resale, has no basis what- so-ever in “profit”. Profit is based on a sum in excess of all costs. Not gross income. Further,
many retired people have a small gross taxable income compared to their assets. This provision is not in conformance with the law.
The provision prohibiting sales of firearms that are like new in their original packing or of a similar kind by manufacturer, model, caliber and type of gun is ludicrous. Virtually every collector or hobbyist focuses their efforts on specific manufactures and types of firearms. They are for the most part devoted to something. Further, like new in original packing firearms are what is the most sought after of collectible firearms. These provisions do not constitute reasonable presumptions by themselves of being engaged in the sale of firearms. Several of the provisions relating to an “intent to predominately earn a profit presumption” are erroneous. The provisions provide in part:
Predominantly earn a profit. (a) The intent underlying the sale or disposition of firearms is predominantly one of obtaining pecuniary gain, as opposed to other intents, such as improving or liquidating a personal firearms collection. * * * (b) The intent to predominantly earn a profit is a fact-specific inquiry. A person shall be presumed to have the intent to predominantly earn a profit from the sale or disposition of firearms in civil and administrative proceedings, absent reliable evidence to the contrary, when the person— (1) Advertises, markets, or otherwise promotes a firearms business (e.g., advertises or posts firearms for sale, including on any website, establishes a website for offering their firearms for sale, makes available business cards, or tags firearms with sales prices), regardless of whether the person incurs expenses or only promotes the business informally; (2) Purchases, rents, or otherwise secures or sets aside permanent or temporary physical space to display or store firearms they offer for sale, including part or all of a business premises, o r table space at a gun show, or display case; (3) Makes or maintains records, in any form, to document, track, or calculate profits and losses from firearms purchases and sales; The provisions presume intent to profit without any proof of profit, and shift the burden to the seller of the firearms to prove otherwise and subject the seller to civil forfeiture of their firearms as well 18 U.S.C. 924(d)(1). The changes in the law did not provide that a person could not advertise a firearm for sale, put a price tag on it, place it for sale on the internet, or rent a table at a gun show. The law specifically provides for occasional sales for gun collectors and hobbyist. The proposed
presumptions prohibit all such sales except maybe by word of mouth. These provisions are not in conformance with the law. Gun shows and collector club meetings with sales and purchases by non-dealers were not prohibited by the BSCA. Had that been the intent of the BSCA it would have so stated. Had it stated such, much opposition would have come forth. It is not proper to take actions by regulation that go far beyond what Congress provided in law. We respectfully submit that the provisions in paragraph (c) setting forth presumptions of “engaged in business” and the revisions setting forth presumptions of “intent to earn a profit” are not supported by the language of BSCA, and should not be adopted. Sincerely,
I ran across a peculiar column last week, but I held off commenting on it.
Mass Shootings: If No One Else Will Offer a Solution, I Will
While everyone is screaming to ban “weapons of war” or whatever the ridiculous phrase du jour is, nobody is offering any kind of solution. We keep saying we need to “have real conversations about mental health,” but we never do. So if we’re not going to ban firearms or have a kumbaya drum circle for mental health, and if no one else is going to offer a solution, I will.
That’s right, yours truly has a policy idea that might move us in the right direction. Because I am going out on a limb here, I’ll go ahead and say that I welcome other ideas, influences, and perspectives. All I ask is that we keep the disagreements civil when we comment down below. Lastly, I use the word “firearm” to cover any weapon that relies on a firing pin, as well as ammunition with a percussion primer. With this definition, make, model, or capacity does not matter.
The reason I held back is this proposal confused the heck out me. It appears at PJ Media, which is a fairly conservative outlet with — usually — a firm grounding in the Constitution and reality. Ashley McCully appears to be a regular contributor.
By McCully’s proposal is anything but Constitution- and reality-based. Before I tore her a figurative new one, I considered the possibiltiy that this is satire. The law she proposes reads like a far-left Dimocrat wishlist; it’s a thoroughly impractical, immoral, and unconstitutional rape of rights.
On the other hand we have the column’s URL: a-modest-proposal-to-prevent-mass-shootings-and-preserve-gun-rights-n1738194
That certainly hearkens back to the very model of literary satire. But was she writing satire, or did an editor pick that URL to poke fun at her “serious” proposal?
I attempted to contact her, but heard nothing for days. So I’m going assume that she meant what she said.
Here goes.
Regardless of how the firearm is purchased, gifted, bequeathed, or obtained, the individual taking receipt of the firearm must present a written statement from a licensed mental health professional endorsing the requesting individual as mentally stable and competent enough to possess a firearm.
That’s an interesting take on the Second Amendment, apparently now reading A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people who have been medically approved to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Up yours, Ashley. And you might want to run your idea past Clarence Thomas, because that requirement is a massive fail on the BRUEN test of “consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation.”
She’d be hard pressed to find and such law in our national tradition, seeing as how the very field of “psychology” didn’t exist until 1854, and didn’t get rolling in the United States until around 1875. And medical licensing? That wasn’t really a thing until the 1870s. And the first actually restrictive medical licensing law was passed in 1881, and only upheld by the Supreme Court in 1889.
In the event an individual is deemed mentally unstable and/or incompetent to possess a firearm by a licensed health professional, then it will also be deemed reasonable to search any and all property of the individual by law enforcement for the sole purpose of identifying and seizing deadly weapons, to include firearms. The written diagnosis by a licensed mental health professional will be declared suitable for probable cause for a warrant to be issued.
There are a couple of problems here. Begging permission to obtain a firearm, and failing to get that permission, is probable cause to ransack a home for the firearm he didn’t get?!
And currently, it would be a HIPAA violation for that licensed mental health professional to voluntarily forward that personal health information, the diagnosis, to the cops. You’ll need to amend 45 CFR 164.512(f)(1)(i)), too, Ashely.
But that’s moot; because no sane mental health pro is going to issue certification.
If the requesting individual commits any crime with a firearm, the license of the endorsing mental health professional will be suspended throughout the criminal investigation. If the requesting individual is found guilty of any crime with a firearm, then the endorsing mental health professional may lose their license permanently and may be subject to criminal charges.
Note the lack of specification of time frame or what firearm is used. If someone gets a gun, lives peacefully for 30 years, then sudden decides to unlawfully pull a trigger — maybe of a gun that some other doc signed off on — the original doc loses his license and goes to jail. Both, in fact. What doctor is going to assume that perpetual liability? Since it would effectively be impossible to get approval, this effectively bans private ownership of firearms.
Speaking of liability…
Regardless of relationship, if a firearm is used to commit any crime by any person, the registered owner of that firearm will be held criminally liable.
If I jump through McCully’s hoops and get a gun, I would be criminally liable if a burglar broke into my house, shot me, tore my gun safe out of the floor, ripped it open with a plasma cutter, took one of my guns, and used it to rob someone else. Ashley’s liability language makes no exception.
Up yours with a prickly pear, Ashley.
Oh, and did you notice that “registered owner” bit? Yep, her wanna-be law presupposes registration. Language in other parts make it clear that the registry she so blithely assumes would include currently owned firearms, not just those bought under her new police state process.
I’m going to guess, like Hollywood writers who have cops checking gun registrations in southern states, McCully lives in a state that does have registration and stupidly assumes everyone else does, too.
Hint, Ashley: most of the country does not register firearms and owners. And in some states, Georgia and Florida for example, creating a registry is serious felony.
I’m skipping some other — mostly liability — points, and going straight to the finale. Which either solidly establishes this as satire, or Ashley as bug-f##k nuts.
Anyone connected to an individual who has been deemed mentally unstable and/or incompetent enough to possess a firearm and has had at least one firearm or deadly weapon seized by the State under Title II, including but not limited to family, friends, colleagues, roommates, associates, or acquaintances, must provide a secondary verbal and written affirmation that they will be held criminally liable for any crime committed by anyone involving the firearms for which they are registered owners.
You may need to read that a couple of time to parse it out.
If you know someone in passing — a neighbor down the street with whom you exchange greetings — that is a prohibited person for mental reasons…
…even if you don’t know it…
…you must swear verbally and in writing (redundant, that) that you will be held criminally liable if said acquaintance… well, see the earlier burglary/plasma cutter scenario.
Ashley’s proposal doesn’t include any mechanism for identifying and contacting the prohibited person’s family, friends, colleagues, roommates, associates, or acquaintances, or anyone “connected to” and sharing their personal legal and medical history. So I’ll be damned if I know how you’re supposed to know to make that “affirmation,” much less to whom.
I would really prefer that is satire, but the fact that McCully wouldn’t respond doesn’t look good.
Tomorrow, President Biden will announce the establishment of the first-ever White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention to reduce gun violence, which has ravaged communities across the country, and implement and expand upon key executive and legislative action which has been taken to save lives.
It’ll be headed by VP Kneepads Harris. Based on her performance as the border czar, and the ensuing flood of illegals and drugs, I suppose we can expect similar results.
Maybe I’ll finding some of those “guns on the street” that I keep hearing about.
The sad reality is that they may have finally found a job that Harris will actually do: push more victim-disarmament laws, regs, and rules.
Jews. Guns. No compromise. No surrender.
