Federal Court Strikes Down California Law Requiring Ammunition Purchase Background Checks

Posted by William A. Jacobson on April 24, 2020 52 Comments

The myriad way state and local governments try to strip away Second Amendment rights is maddening. And almost always, the restrictions come with benign sounding names and acronyms hiding the agenda, like New York's S.A.F.E. Act (Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act of 2013), a mindblogging mix of requirements meant to make purchasing and owning guns difficult. In California, the state imposed a background check requirement for the purchase of ammunition, an unprecedented move.

Media and Democrats lying again: No, Trump Did Not Tell People to Inject or Drink Bleach or Disinfectants

Posted by Mary Chastain on April 24, 2020 65 Comments

This is why when Donald Trump became president I told friends to always listen to his full remarks. Everyone knew the MSM would twist his words to make him sound evil and stupid. The MSM and liberals on Twitter did just that yesterday. They claim Trump suggested people inject themselves with disinfectants in order to cure the Wuhan coronavirus.

If you've spent any time on Twitter during the Coronavirus crisis, you may have noticed that some people on the left seem to enjoy fantasizing about the deaths of Trump supporters and how it could impact the election. This comes from the same people who like to say Trump lacks empathy.

Next big funding fight – Bailing out blue state pension problems

Posted by William A. Jacobson on April 23, 2020 67 Comments

Nancy Pelosi, dragging Chuck Schumer along by his collar, caused enormous damage in delaying both the massive $2 trillion relief bill and then the follow up expansion of funding of the Paycheck Protection Program. Remember when the media lost its mind over closure of some national monuments during various Obama-era government shutdowns (which weren't really shutdowns, more scalebacks)? Pelosi has caught none of that hell despite causing millions of workers and thousands of businesses real pain.
