[Federalist] President Joe Biden’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms Director Steven Dettelbach seems to know as much about guns as Democrat-nominated Supreme Court justices.
As ATF head, Dettelbach, who was confirmed in 2022 with the help of Senate Democrats and two Republicans, is expected to understand to some degree the items his agency regulates and enforces. Unfortunately for Americans who have endured a slew of attacks on their Second Amendment rights at the hands of the Biden administration, Dettelbach is publicly ignorant about the guns and gun parts his agency wants to ban.
During his appearance on CBS’s "Face The Nation" over the weekend, Dettelbach outlined for CBS News’s Margaret Brennan the ATF’s desire to ban certain firearms and modifications he claimed are loopholes in restrictive gun laws.
In the sit-down portion of his interview, Dettelbach claimed his 5,000-person agency is "way, way, way too small" to fully satisfy Biden’s gun-grabbing goals. He also admitted the ATF, even though barred from creating a federal database of firearm owners, still devotes its time and resources to "work within that system" and link guns to owners.

Not too long ago I realized I was 'under-armed'.
Truck and cars are wellmarginally stocked (jump bag, water, rations, blankets, shelter, cutting and repair implements, as well as other stuff).

And they openly admit it. Like the English crown in the 1700's, they have no fear. Their day will come. Thankfully in America we can do it by vote, not violence.

49, it's not the vote that count, but who counts the votes. In many places, it's the Democrats.

The ATF is guano on the tip of the iceberg. All of USGOV needs to have 99.999% of its stored data deleted immediately.

[NYPost] A new witness could testify Fani Willis warned lover Nathan Wade’s former business partner to stay quiet about their affair, an explosive new court filing claims.
“They are coming after us. You don’t need to talk to them about anything about us,” Willis is alleged to have warned Terrence Bradley in a September 2023 phone call.
The call was overheard by Cobb County, Georgia, prosecutor Cindi Lee Yeager, according to court papers filed Monday by Trump co-defendant David Schafer.
Willis, the Fulton County District Attorney, is currently battling to stay in her post overseeing the election interference case which charged Donald Trump and 18 others.
She stands accused of carrying on a relationship with Wade, who she appointed special prosecutor, but hiding it from the court, presenting a conflict of interest.
Willis and Wade have said under oath they were only romantic between 2022 and 2023, long after the case started.
At a hearing over whether to disqualify Willis last week Bradley claimed on the stand that he had no “knowledge” of when the two prosecutors started dating.
But the filing says Yeager would swear under oath that that was at odds with what Bradley told Yeager in person — that the romance began in 2019, during Willis’s DA campaign.
Bradley also texted a lawyer for another Trump co-defendant the pair were “absolutely” dating before Willis hired Wade to manage the Trump prosecution in November 2021 — and then muttered, “Oh, dang” when confronted with that evidence on the stand.
Yeager is willing to testify Bradley told her Wade “had definitively begun a romantic relationship with Ms. Willis during the time that Ms. Willis was running for District Attorney in 2019 through 2020,” Monday’s filing says.
But Willis’ office has argued that Bradley — who testified that his claims about Wade and Willis were “speculation” — is an unreliable witness who “had every motive to lie” after he’d left Wade’s law practice under suspicion of sexual assault.

There are too many holes in Fani’s boat to not disqualify her. If she is not disqualified, the motions to disqualify will just stack up. The judge is up for reelection. He will delay his ruling until the window closes on anyone else submitting a petition to challenge him.

A little hair of the dog Fani. They are after you because you stole, cheated and lied, both in your personal life and professional life. But you arrogance of telling lies in court will prove to be your end, all brought on by you.

In reality Fani coerced false testimony from Wade’s buddy under threat of prosecution for the sexual assault. She can’t be left in charge of a prosecutor’s office.

[Washington Examiner] For someone who is supposed to be running the United States government, President Joe Biden doesn’t seem to interact much with those working for him or know what they are doing.
A few weeks removed from the Pentagon hiding the physical condition of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin from the president, the former chief of the U.S. Border Patrol revealed Sunday that he never once talked to Biden during his two years on the job.
"I’ve never had one conversation with the president or vice president," Raul Ortiz, who was the chief of the Border Patrol from August 2021 until his retirement last year, said in a 60 Minutes interview Sunday. "I was the chief of the Border Patrol. I commanded 21,000 people. That’s a problem."
Do Border Patrol chiefs generally meet with presidents outside of photo ops? Personally, I’d rather not meet with President Biden unless it’s absolutely necessary — even photo ops, but I’m funny that way.

Joe only meets with folks willing to make a testimonial about his coherence afterwards - press included. If you see someone talking to him, assume that they are not to be trusted going forward.

And the personel of the Border Patrol are hugely relieved. If he doesn't talk to you, you don't have to worry about keeping the look of disbelief and contempt off your face.

Considerable evidence points to the fact that the so called 'Drop boxes' are a license to cheat. They appear to be championed by one particular political party, which confirms their purpose and intention. They should be done away with.
The Voter ID is no more 'racist' than a driver's license or a hunting or fishing license.

There are freelance cheaters that got caught in the last couple of elections, but nobody has ratted out or infiltrated the strategic cheating in the targeted states in the instances where the large scale manufactured ballots were matched to records of voters that did not participate or were fake. The industrial cheating is what they will need to try. It has to be done in specific places where everyone is under their control. There is time enough to plan to make this very hard to do.

The years since Election Day 2020 have been totally wasted up to now. Dominion still makes cash using their voting machine/cheaters to count votes, and this kind of chicanery will most likely happen this coming election day. I expect even more fraud in 2024 than in 2020. The Dem presidential slate will have the win in 2024 by 400 million votes if that's what it takes.

If we are waiting for the RNC, we are wasting time. Folks in the states with the likely target precincts should look for local groups to strategize.

Voter ID is not racist. The assertion that blacks and other minorities are incapable of getting a voter ID is racist.
