Be Able to Keep Them

During a campaign event on May 21, Texas Democrat gubernatorial candidate Beto O’Rourke expressed his belief that Americans who own AR-15s should not be able to keep them. On May 31, FOX News highlighted the comments as part O’Rourke’s ongoing effort against the guns. In the comments, O’Rourke stressed his position that no one should be able “to purchase an AR-15 or AK-47,” and added, “I don’t think that the people who have them right now in civilian use should be able to keep them.”

"Beto announces that he does NOT want to be Texas Governor", will look at running in Conn, Maryland, Mass. instead. (or...just use this as a fundraising tool from those states, then keep the cash)

There are over 20,000,000 AR-15s (.223) in private hands. It's by far the most popular rifle sold today in America. Criminals really, really don't want to face it when they do their home invasions. Some die trying. The Founders would approve of ARs. AKs , too. Beta's unconstitutional opinion doesn't.matter. He's a dictator wannabe. Come. Take.

Banning semi-automatic rifles would just be the start, as the leftist Democrats would then work their way through banning semi-automatic handguns, and then move on to banning all modern firearms. Biden made that pretty clear yesterday outside the White House when he said that nobody needs high powered firearms.

I saw a movie where Germans marched into a French village. After settling in, the Nazis ordered all the villagers to turn in their pistols and hunting/bird rifles. The next scene shows the people lined up at the tables to dutifully turn in their arms. Beta would love to emulate fascists like the Germans in that movie.

Biden's Memory Fails Him Again During
a Disastrous 'Summit of the Americas'

Joe Biden’s memory appeared to fail him again on Sunday as he gave remarks at the Summit of the Americas. The meeting, being held in California, was attended by a group of Western Hemisphere nations, with corruption and migration, eventually becoming illegal immigration into the United States, taking center stage. In an attempt to pass the buck, Biden forgot the president he used to work for again, a “mistake” he’s made numerous times going back to the 2020 presidential campaign.

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) appears to have used the January 6 committee as a political weapon against her primary opponent. It is no secret that Liz Cheney’s political career as an establishment Republican took a nosedive into oblivion when she sided with the Democrats in their January 6 witch hunt. Since then, her primary opponent, Harriet Hageman, has been trouncing Cheney in the polls and now leads by a whopping 30 points. After a dismal first hearing for the January 6 committee that pulled in just 19 million viewers across the United States, Liz Cheney has now subpoenaed

Home Depot stood up against the left and refused to go woke. And guess what? It worked. A judge sided with Home Depot after the home improvement company banned its employees from wearing Black Lives Matter logos. Administrative law judge Paul Bogas ruled that the complaint raised by the U.S. National Labor Relations Board's (NLRB) general counsel did not have enough legal grounds to advance in court. The complaint came last year after the NLRB accused Home Depot of "selectively and disparately” enforcing workers a dress code that targeted BLM.

Studies suggest a link between an incurable and fatal prion disease known as Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) and COVID-19 vaccines. Researchers believe the prion region from the original Wuhan COVID-19 variant’s spike protein was incorporated into mRNA vaccines and adenovirus vector vaccines — given to hundreds of millions of humans — and that it can cause a new type of rapidly progressing sporadic CJD. According to Mayo Clinic, CJD is a degenerative brain disorder that leads to dementia and, ultimately, death. Although the Omicron variant does not have a prion region on its spike protein, current COVID-19 vaccines still use the genetic material — including the prion region — of the parent Wuhan strain.
