That's well worth the time to read. Thanks for sharing Bull.
It's a shame that people in power listen to the misinformed yet vocal useful idiots!!
Should I buy an AR-15?
By Mike McDaniel
Should I buy an AR-15? Yes. Next question?
But why? There are many good reasons, including the Mummified Meat Puppet Administration doesn’t want you to have one and they’re willing to lie about it and threaten to bomb, even nuke, you to get them. Also, it has been scientifically proved there is no such thing as too many guns or too much ammunition. Trust the science. President Biden doesn’t:
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (TX, D) doesn’t either. She claims to have handled an AR:
"I've held an AR-15 in my hand," she said. "I wish I hadn’t. It is as heavy as 10 boxes that you might be moving. And the bullet that is utilized, a .50 caliber, these kinds of bullets need to be licensed and do not need to be on the streets."
Recently, Senator John Kennedy (LA, R) quizzed one of Biden’s judicial nominees. She signed on to an “assault weapon” ban, which in Democrat/socialist/communist (D/s/c) parlance means an AR-15 or anything that resembles one, but had no idea what an “assault weapon, is:
That’s surely, in part, because there is no such thing.
D/s/cs also want to ban “high-capacity magazines, which they define as any magazine holding more than 10 rounds, though they’d surely like to ban them entirely. The M16, the automatic, military version of the semiautomatic civilian legal AR-15, was originally issued with 20 round magazines, but during the Vietnam era, 30 round magazines quickly became, and remain, the standard.
An in-depth AR primer may be found here.
Among the more common D/S/C lies about ARs is if the Founders knew about AR-15s, they would have never written the Second Amendment. The Founders would have been delighted to have ARs, and they were content to allow citizens the most effective military arms of their time, including, unlike what Joe Biden keeps saying, cannon. One can hardly trust people who ignore and want to abolish the Second Amendment to tell the truth about such things. It’s interesting that the very people who claim semiautomatic AR-15s would be useless against them, are so desperate to take them away from Americans.
Another common lie is the AR-15 is a high-powered rifle. Nonsense. It fires a .223/5.56mm cartridge, which is intermediate in power, designed for Coyote-sized game.
Yet another common lie is the AR-15 is a military “assault weapon.” This particular lie is based on a decades-old D/s/c tactic of trying to trick Americans into thinking anything that remotely resembles a machinegun must be a machinegun. Military M4 versions are automatic, civilian AR-15s are semiautomatic only, no different than any other semiautomatic firearm. It’s safe to assume any AR-15 one sees is a semiauto. Citizens may theoretically own a machinegun, but the process is expensive and lengthy. So few are on the market, and are so expensive, it’s practically impossible.
Best estimates indicate Americans own around 30 million ARs, which makes it the most popular and common “sporting rifle” in circulation. This is hardly a surprise as Americans have bought more than a million firearms a month for more than 50 months, and there is no sign of that number diminishing.
The AR platform is so popular because it is brilliantly ergonomically designed. All the controls fall easily to hand, and the rifle weighs relatively—by rifle terms--little. Men, woman, even little girls can easily handle it. For most, it just feels right. I’ve yet to teach a woman or girl to shoot the AR-15 without witnessing wide grins of surprise and delight.
The recoil is light indeed, and the muzzle flash and report are also easily manageable. Its design is rugged, its finish needs only minimal attention and is far less prone to rust than blued steel. The very qualities that make it an outstanding military arm also make it suitable for hunting. Its design and ergonomics also make the rifle highly accurate, and its lack of recoil makes follow-up shots fast and easy.
One reason the AR platform is so popular is the amazing profusion of accessories easily installed by the user—no gunsmithing is required. Everything from lighter triggers, lasers, flashlights, scopes, red dot and other electronic sights and magnifiers are readily available. Little is required to make an already ergonomic, accurate rifle even better suited to anyone.
Its original military design also makes taking down the rifle for cleaning fast and easy, as is reassembly. There are few parts involved, and for normal cleaning, there are no tiny springs or other parts that rocket off into the gun parts black hole, never to be seen again. Ammunition, in comparison with most rifle ammo, is inexpensive, and ARs may be had for as little as $500.00.
Perhaps the best reason to buy an AR is you’re an American, and you want one.

I remember that the MMP claimed that the buck stopped here (meaning him).... now he blames everyone and everything for the downfall of our once great country but him!
VIDEO: She escaped communist China and destroys David Hogg on gun control
By Andrea Widburg
David Hogg was 17 years old when an evil person killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Because he was on campus when it happened, Hogg became a gun-grabbing star, gaining admission to Harvard (despite his GPA apparently not meeting Harvard’s standards). From there, he embarked upon a career as a professional leftist activist for the Democrat party. His opinions are always deeply felt and equally ill-informed. He’ll opine about anything, but his real passion is gun control. Hogg wants your gun.
However, the other day, Hogg met his match when he was confronted by Lily Tang Williams, who is also an activist. Unlike Hogg, a middle-class kid who went to an “elite” school and has been embraced by the government for which he advocates, Williams has a different story to tell, one of hardship in a totalitarian system:
Born to illiterate working-class parents in China’s western Sichuan province just before Mao’s Cultural Revolution, Lily Tang Williams grew up experiencing extremely poor living conditions, food rationing, social chaos, and Communist indoctrination.
In spite of these hardships, she learned to work hard, persevere, and was grateful for the opportunities she was given. After universities were re-opened, she graduated from the Fudan University law school in Shanghai, where she was one of the first to be selected to re-populate the law school faculty, as well as being encouraged to practice corporate law in Shanghai to help China begin rebuilding its economy.
That one little phrase about “Mao’s Cultural Revolution” tells you everything you need to know about Williams’s pro-gun credentials. The Cultural Revolution followed hard on the heels of Mao’s “Great Leap Forward.” That was when Mao decided to remake China’s economy in a socialist mode. Between 1958 and 1962, Mao managed to actively kill or passively starve to death somewhere between 15 to 75 million of his fellow citizens. (No one knows the true number.)
To understand how he did this, one of the important things to know is that Mao had one overriding principle: “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” Upon seizing power in 1949, Mao immediately embarked on an unofficial policy of gun control, which he made official in 1966.
It’s not a coincidence that 1966 also marked the first year of his decade-long Cultural Revolution, which brought to China a degree of totalitarianism unprecedented in modern history. He was going to remake the Chinese people and, disarmed, they were helpless to oppose him.
Nobody knows how many people died during this era (torture, execution, imprisonment, starvation, etc.), but estimates range from hundreds of thousands to millions or even tens of millions. Mao had the political power because Mao had the gun.
So, Williams’s childhood was very different from Hogg’s. She understands that a deranged gunman can kill a few people (which is tragic, of course), but that a totalitarian, deranged government can kill millions or even tens of millions of people. (More on that here, if you’re interested.)
Hogg, on the other hand, never thinks about the numbers who don’t die when citizens can stand against a rogue government. He thinks only of the smaller number who do. (And here’s another post on that subject, also if you’re interested.)
Williams, who is running for Congress in New Hampshire, appeared at some event that saw Hogg appearing as a panelist. She asked him a question he couldn’t answer and decimated him in the process. In a just world, this should end the gun grabbers forever:
This is brilliant.
This is brilliant.

Outstanding!!!
MMP (Mummified Meat Puppet) combined with leadership is an oxymoron!!!
LOL ... I like that!!!
Afternoon AL. That's quite a comprehensive list....
SCOTUS to Weigh Obstruction Law Used on 1/6 Defendants, Trump
The Supreme Court on Tuesday will hear oral arguments involving a federal obstruction law that has been used to prosecute hundreds of defendants involved in the events of Jan. 6, 2021, and the outcome could affect former President Donald Trump.
The high court will be asked to define the scope of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which was enacted in 2002 following the Enron scandal. President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice has used the law to prosecute more than 300 Jan. 6 defendants, and the law also relates to two charges special counsel Jack Smith brought against Trump in a D.C. election interference case.
The Supreme Court also will be hearing oral arguments April 25 in Trump’s case regarding his claim that he can’t be prosecuted because of presidential immunity.
On Tuesday, the court will hear oral arguments in Fischer v. United States, which involves Joseph Fischer, a former police officer from Pennsylvania. According to court documents, he attended the Stop the Steal rally on the Ellipse near the White House on Jan. 6. He and a companion then left town, but after learning of the crowd swelling at the Capitol, they returned and joined in, though not until after Congress had suspended efforts to certify the results of the 2020 election.
Fischer entered the Capitol, made it about 20 feet into the building, was pushed by the crowd into a line of officers and got pepper sprayed, then left the building. He was inside for about four minutes.
Federal authorities charged him with seven counts, but the one before the justices is Title 18 Section 1512(c), which reads: “Whoever corruptly – (1) alters, destroys, mutilates, or conceals a record, document, or other object, or attempts to do so, with the intent to impair the object’s integrity or availability for use in an official proceeding; or (2) otherwise obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.”
U.S. District Court judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, sided with Fischer, saying the law was only intended to apply to evidence tampering that obstructs an official proceeding. But the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed Nichols, ruling that “nder the most natural reading of the statute,” the law “applies to all forms of corrupt obstruction of an official proceeding, other than the conduct that is already covered by” the evidence-tampering provision.

Saturday's Energy Absurdity: ThyssenKrupp Provides a Microcosm of Germany's Real Climate Agenda
David Blackmon
Apr 13, 2024
Long-time German steelmaker ThyssenKrupp announced plans this week to cut its steel output going forward by 20%. The reason why, as described by Bloomberg writer Javier Blas in a tweet, is entirely predictable: “the plan responds to an ‘upward trajectory of energy costs owing to climate policy objectives’ and pressure from ‘unchecked’ Asian steel imports.”
Thus does Thyssenkrupp provide a clear microcosm example of the key aspects of the climate alarm agenda in Germany:
Use climate policy to force massively higher energy costs on the population and industry;
Item #1 above inevitably results in rapid de-industrialization of what once was the leading industrial economy in Europe;
This leads inevitably to Germany becoming a de facto vassal state of China, which can provide all the steel the deindustrialized, down-sized German economy could ever need at cut-rate prices;
The combination of items 1-3 above lead inexorably to the final solution, which is Malthusian depopulation of the German homeland.
There is no mystery here at all, and this is the planned agenda not just for Germany, but for the entire western word. It is all laid out quite clearly in the World Economic Forum’s “Great Reset” and the UN’s Agenda 2030.
We can either act now to do something to stop this from happening in this year’s elections, or we can keep acting as the braindead sheep Klaus Schwab and Antonio Guterres believe we all are.
This is not complicated.
That is all.

Looks like Hunter will have his day in court.
Judge Rejects Hunter Biden's Bid to Dismiss Gun Case as Politically Motivated
A federal judge in Delaware refused Friday to throw out a federal gun case against Hunter Biden, rejecting the president's son's claim that he is being prosecuted for political purposes as well as other arguments.
U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika's ruling increases the prospect that Biden could face trial in the case as early as June, in the midst of his father’s reelection campaign. His efforts to scuttle the other criminal case he faces in California involving tax allegations have also failed.
Norieka denied several defense requests to dismiss the case charging Biden with lying about his drug use in October 2018 on a form to buy a gun that he kept for about 11 days.
His lawyers had argued the case was politically motivated and asserted that an immunity provision from an original plea deal that fell apart still holds. They had also challenged the appointment of Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss as special counsel to lead the prosecution.
Noreika, who was appointed to the bench by former President Donald Trump, has not yet ruled on a challenge to the constitutionality of the gun charges.
Biden has pleaded not guilty. A representative for his legal team didn't immediately respond to a request for comment Friday.
The president's son has acknowledged struggling with an addiction to crack cocaine during that period in 2018, but his lawyers have said he didn’t break the law and another nonviolent, first-time offender would not have been charged.
The yearslong investigation had looked ready to wrap up with a plea deal last year, but the agreement imploded after a judge raised questions about it. Biden was subsequently indicted.
Under the deal, he would have gotten a plea deal in which he would have gotten two years’ probation after pleading guilty to misdemeanor tax charges. He also would have avoided prosecution on the gun charge if he stayed out of trouble. He was subsequently indicted.
Hunter Biden’s attorneys have argued that prosecutors bowed to political pressure to indict the president’s son amid heavy criticism of the plea deal from Trump and other Republicans.
Prosecutors countered the evidence against him was “overwhelming,” including cocaine residue found in the pouch where he stored his gun, and noted that charges had been filed during the presidency of his father, Joe Biden.
Norieka said in her ruling that Biden's team provided “nothing concrete” to support a conclusion that anyone actually influenced the special counsel's team.

Under the deal, he would have gotten a plea deal in which he would have gotten two years’ probation after pleading guilty to misdemeanor tax charges. He also would have avoided prosecution on the gun charge if he stayed out of trouble. He was subsequently indicted.
Hunter Biden’s attorneys have argued that prosecutors bowed to political pressure to indict the president’s son amid heavy criticism of the plea deal from Trump and other Republicans.
Prosecutors countered the evidence against him was “overwhelming,” including cocaine residue found in the pouch where he stored his gun, and noted that charges had been filed during the presidency of his father, Joe Biden.
Norieka said in her ruling that Biden's team provided “nothing concrete” to support a conclusion that anyone actually influenced the special counsel's team.

Denver To Defund Police, Fire Dept In Order To Fund Services And Housing For Illegal ‘Newcomers’

Denver intends to defund its police force and fire department in order to better support those illegally entering the U.S. through a program that provides a monthly debit card based on family size, free housing, “access to language instruction, career pathway explorations, industry-recognized credential training, and work-based learning opportunities.”
“The program also includes access to language instruction, career pathway explorations, industry-recognized credential training and work-based learning opportunities,” according to Denver Democrat Mayor Mike Johnston (D-Colo.).
Denver, the capital of Colorado and a “sanctuary city,” declared on Wednesday that it will spend $89.9 million on assistance for illegal foreigners entering the country. This amount will come from approximately $45 million in public programs and services.
The Denver Police Department verified to The Daily Caller outlet that its department will lose $8.4 million of its operating budget.
Denver surpassed all other cities in 2023 in terms of the number of illegal aliens arriving per capita, with over 40,000 arriving in that year alone, bringing the overall number of illegal immigrants to almost 710,000, as reported by NBC News. Denver aims to spend over $100 million on comparable expenses this year after spending over $42 million on housing and medical care for these migrants last year.
According to the city, the Denver Fire Department will also see a $2.5 million cut of its overall operating expenditures.
“Proud of our city for welcoming those most in need. Proud of our city teams who found ways to minimize budget without major impacts,” Johnson posted on X (Twitter).
Today, we shared a new budget and a more sustainable newcomer program.

Think his casket will fit him like a glove?? 😆
Many his casket will fit him like a glove!!!😅
Probably already is!!!
Not finding fault at all!!! Justice is finally served!!!
LMAO
That had to have been a very bad case of prostate cancer that was let go for a long time.
LMAO ... not going to bode well for the dunce!
Throw the swing states election cheating card on Biden's side and the scale of justice swings very heavily in Joe's favor. That's why the libs don't care what they say or what they do, the fix is still in their pockets!!
But the libs will come up with lame reasons that the braindead democrat, cult worshiping, minions will swallow hook, line and sinker!!!
New 'Biden Diet' Sweeps Nation: Pay The Same Amount Of Money But Eat 50% Less Food
US — With inflation showing no signs of slowing down, a new diet craze is sweeping across the nation. Known as the Biden Diet, the principle is simple; you spend the same amount of money on groceries as you were before, but you only get half the amount of food.
Google searches for "Biden Diet" have surged 3,000% in the last month, and nutrition experts say their phones are ringing off the hook with questions. "Hundreds of people call my office every day asking about the Biden Diet," said nutritionist Dr. Rich Simones. "For a long time everyone was into paleo, but really, who can afford meat these days?"
Simones says the ultimate strength of the Biden Diet is its simplicity. "You don't really have to do anything special to participate," he noted. "You just go to the grocery store and buy as much food as you can afford, and soon all those extra pounds just start melting away!"
Connecticut mother Denise Martelli said her whole family is having success on the Biden Diet. "We're spending the same amount of money on groceries each week, but my husband and I have each lost 10 pounds," she exclaimed. "Our kids used to be chubby too, and now all three are in the 10th weight percentile for their age group. I tell you, this Biden Diet is a miracle!"
At publishing time, the White House announced that President Biden has been nominated for a Nobel Prize in medicine for singlehandedly solving the obesity crisis in America.
