Just a month before the 2020 election, radio host Rush Limbaugh commented that Democrats “resent the whole premise behind elections. Look, they don’t believe they should have to persuade anybody to agree with them … The modern-day Democrats have to go through the motions of campaigning, and they have to go through the motions of trying to win the hearts and minds of voters. But they resent the h-ll out of it. And in their world, it’s the one thing standing in their way: This need, this requirement to win elections. And I’m just telling you: As soon as they...

In response to the recent tragedy in Oakland County, Michigan, what did the anti-gunners do? Following their standard course of action, they are politicizing the deaths of four high school teens in an attempt to undermine your constitutionally-protected rights. In fact, bowing to the will of their far-Left overlords, anti-gun senators are bringing H.R. 8 to the Senate floor—which is a bill to institute Universal Background Registration Checks (UBCs). And to make matters worse, they are trying to do this by unanimous consent—without an actual vote. Please, contact your Senators and make sure they know you’re opposed to H.R. 8...

Last week at a No Mask Nevada rally in Henderson, the organization’s president Melissa Blundo (pictured to the left of me above) was informed by a Sgt. Blum from Metro that waving American flags were now “illegal.” Shocked, he informed her that only tiny hand-sized flags were allowed. When asked “why” the officer responded, that flags have been banned as a “safety concern” because they could be used as “weapons.” An interesting concern about a thin piece of PVC pipe, given the fact that many patriots show up open-carrying pistols and rifles.
