Second Amendment / Re: Supreme Court Emergency Decision To End All Firearm Permits Nationwide Gets Put Into Motion
« Last post by andy58-in-nh on Today at 04:45:11 pm »I’m glad to hear this. I live in New Hampshire, where we have constitutional carry. If I have to drive to Maine or to Vermont, and I’ve got a pistol in my car as I frequently do, no problem. All three states have constitutional carry. But if I’m going to Massachusetts to pick something up, and I happen to forget to remove the pistol from my glove box, and if I were to get pulled over and my car is searched, then I’m in jail for years. It makes no sense.

Economy/Business / Re: Most Americans Say We’re In A Recession—And Blame Biden
« Last post by DefiantMassRINO on Today at 04:44:32 pm »More malaise then recession ... the country lacks common cause, common direction, and common apsirations ... the rich want to get richer, the powerful want to accumulate more power ... the rest aimlessly wander in the deserts of modern politics in search of oasises, but only finding mirages.
The politics of division can win elections, but it doesn't build a nation.
Biden does not work to improve the lives of ALL Americans; he works to improve the lives of some (Americans and non-Americans) at the expense of others.

Hunter Biden will ask a judge at a hearing on Wednesday to delay his tax trial in California, marking the latest request from the first son to push off his legal proceedings as he juggles two criminal cases.
Biden’s scheduled appearance comes on the heels of his attorneys also filing a slate of requests Tuesday evening to restrict special counsel David Weiss from using certain evidence at trial.
Biden’s attorneys requested Judge Mark Scarsi prohibit the government from introducing any references to Biden’s “extravagant” lifestyle, including “any salacious details about money purportedly spent on certain personal expenses, including, but not limited to, reference to sex workers, adult entertainment, a sex club membership, pornography, and strip clubs.”
Biden’s attorneys claimed the information would be unnecessarily prejudicial to a jury and that it was irrelevant to his charges, which include tax evasion, failure to file taxes, and filing false returns. Weiss alleged Biden spent exorbitant amounts of money on frivolous expenses, including strippers and pornography, while neglecting his taxes.
“Unnecessary salacious details — especially relating to collateral alleged sexual conduct — is exactly the type of prejudicial, inflammatory evidence that makes a conviction more likely because it provokes an emotional response in the jury,” Biden’s attorneys wrote.

Politics/Government / Democrats Brag About Rolling Mike Johnson in Spending Negotiations, Getting Him to Give Them Secret
« Last post by mystery-ak on Today at 04:35:33 pm »Democrats Brag About Rolling Mike Johnson in Spending Negotiations, Getting Him to Give Them Secret Earmarks
Sean Moran 22 May 2024
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) reportedly gave almost every Democrat an earmark in exchange for their votes for a $1.2 trillion spending bill that was passed despite the objections of a majority of House Republicans.
As Johnson and House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) negotiated two government funding bills, the Democrat leader secured a major victory in exchange for voting for Johnson’s spending bill: a considerable bump in earmarks for Democrats’ home districts.
Democrats argued that they did not receive their fair share of the earmarks, or congressionally directed projects, this congressional term. Jeffries made clear that Democrats would provide the votes to pass the spending bill for an increase in their share of the earmarks, according to Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-CT), the top Democrat on the House Appropriations Committee.
The earmarks were tucked well within the Transportation spending bill; a CNN analysis suggested that the earmarks for Democrats went up $616,279 for almost every Democrat member over what had passed out of committee months prior.
The earmarks in the gargantuan spending bill were for “almost every single Democratic member for at least one project,” CNN wrote.
DeLauro told CNN that Jeffries wanted to keep the victory a secret.
“There was no need. He [Jeffries] negotiated. He got what we needed to have. That’s it. It doesn’t always have to be a press conference when you get things done. That’s his style,” DeLauro said.
“Nobody at the beginning of this Congress could have imagined all this shit that has happened here, right? But [Jeffries] has navigated a pathway for Democrats that has made us relevant and effective,” Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA), the ranking member on the House Rules Committee, said.
“I saw him take the temperature of the caucus, listen a lot to people and ultimately land in a place that not everyone celebrated, but everyone was comfortable with,” Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) remarked.
