    ... meanwhile the NRA is in a Texas bankruptcy court while trying to defend against serious corruption charges against its senior officials. The NRA is likely too distracted right now to be very effective in pushing back against President Biden's executive actions.

    One of the new provisions is to ban the sale of "ghost guns" those with no serial numbers between private individuals that can be assembled from parts purchased online.

    President Biden will appoint a permanent director for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives. This position has been vacant since 2015 and be lead by one of the most experienced firearms professionals in the country.

    i can buy uppers and lowers and all other parts from my local gun store.. all I buy online is the occasional box of fragmentary rounds of 40cal.

    you know the NRA isn't the only group fighting for legal gun owners.

    Thats right meaning the militias should have the same arms as their enemies.
    But Congress already made full auto weapons illegal for the majority of us..
    One FREEDOM already removed from us.

    Top Biden officials busted telling an enormous lie about 'infrastructure' plan



    The claim that Biden’s spending bonanza would create 19 million jobs has no basis in reality.

    In the scenario where Biden's infrastructure proposal is passed, Moody’s projects that the economy will create 18.96 million jobs over a decade. Yet as Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler aptly explained, that’s compared to a baseline projection of 16.3 million jobs being created without the infrastructure proposal. (But with the already-passed stimulus legislation). So the real number of jobs Biden’s plan would create, according to this Moody’s report, is 2.7 million. That’s a far cry from the "19 million jobs created" in Biden's initial telling. Indeed, the White House and Buttigieg have had to retract their objectively false claim publicly.

    Oops.
    This raises the question: Why did the Biden administration have to twist the facts to defend its $2.25 trillion plan? Well, maybe because the real estimate of just 2.7 million jobs is incredibly damning — that comes out to roughly $833,333 in taxpayer dollars spent per job created. Suffice it to say that’s not the best return on investment.


    Ope! Another lie from Ol’ Lyin’ Biden!

    The word Militia as used by the founding fathers meant "Citizen Soldiers" who often are the actual first line of defense against invasion and are always the first line of defense against an oppressive government. And just so that you don't get confused, the musket was the advanced military weapon of the timei.e. the citizen soldiers were to have access to the same individual weapons as the government soldiers.

    Do you remember the angry mobs, BLM and Antifa, that burned down family owned businesses and invaded white neighborhoods? And no, those are not imaginary groups. Don't let CNN and the left wing media convince you of that. They are real.

    from 'The Highway Patrol' the term militia is explained briefly in this 46sec clip:

    These men/women are the true essence of what it means to be Americans.
