If the pundit you follow blames John Cornyn’s loss on anything other than John Cornyn and his gun control vote, that person is either an idiot or a liar.
It wasn’t Trump. It wasn’t Paxton. It wasn’t “dumb primary voters.”
John Cornyn passed gun control. In Texas! Lol
Ninth Circuit Flips Bruen’s Burden to Uphold Hawaii Gun-Purchase Restrictions
A divided Ninth Circuit has reversed another Second Amendment victory, allowing Hawaii to defend two unusual firearm-acquisition restrictions without showing that either one is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of gun regulation.
In a 6–5 en banc decision in Yukutake v. Lopez, the court reversed a permanent injunction against Hawaii’s 30-day handgun-permit deadline and its requirement that certain newly acquired firearms be physically presented to police for inspection.
The ruling reaches beyond Hawaii. Instead of applying the text-and-history test required by New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, the majority treated the provisions as presumptively constitutional because Hawaii placed them inside a “shall-issue” system. The court then required the gun owners—not the government—to prove the restrictions were being used toward “abusive ends.”

A profound exchange was captured in the notes of Maryland delegate Dr. James McHenry at the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention in 1787. As Benjamin Franklin was leaving Independence Hall, a Mrs. Powel from Philadelphia called out, “Well, Doctor, what have we got—a Republic or a Monarchy?” Without pause, he answered, “A Republic, if you can keep it.”
In honor of Constitution Day, I encourage everyone to take the time to read this founding document written to “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity…” Study it. Take a moment to discuss it with your children and think about what it represents and guarantees. Reflect on the sacrifices made by those who, from the inception of this country up to the present day, fought to give us the options and opportunities we enjoy as citizens of the United States. As I wrote in the preface to THE TERMINAL LIST: “We are citizens, not subjects, and we must stay ever vigilant that we remain so.”
At my military retirement ceremony in 2016, I gave each of my children a set of gifts, symbolic of what it means to be a self-reliant citizen of a free nation: a Bible and a compass to help guide them, the Constitution of the United States as a reminder of our natural rights and freedoms, and a Tomahawk representing the means and will to defend them.
Strength and Honor.
EXCLUSIVE: Texas Senate candidate James Talarico — who has spent millions in ads calling Republican Ken Paxton "the most corrupt politician in Texas" — is now facing his own "blatant corruption" allegation tied to a progressive consulting firm that raked in over $5 million in state contracts while he sat on the committee overseeing those very contracts.
Talarico drew an $83,333 annual salary from MAYA Consulting, a DEI-focused firm that landed two Texas Education Agency contracts totaling more than $5.2 million between 2021 and 2022. The contracts were specifically tied to COVID-19 learning loss — the same priority Talarico was pushing in the Texas House as a voting member of the Public Education Committee.
The RNC is calling it a "textbook pay-to-play scheme."

The right to keep and bear arms is God-given, not government-given. The Second Amendment enshrines that right — and commands that it shall not be infringed.
Clarence Thomas dismantled the gun-control lobby’s entire premise:
“The Second Amendment says the right to bear arms shall not be infringed. It assumes a right. It doesn’t grant a right.”
"You have the rights, and the government receives its authority from you."
Government never gave us this right. The Constitution commands government not to infringe it.

By Karl’s logic, the UT controversy somehow requires Longhorns to become Sooner cheerleaders.
Since when does disliking a player obligate you to burn your jersey and wear the rival’s?

As an Air Force officer, I was targeted by Joe Biden's woke military for refusing the vax AND for saying men can't become women. President Trump nominated Pete Hegseth to rebuild our military by rooting out WOKE and putting our warfighters' readiness first, and he has done just that in historic fashion.
This gentleman has never been the primary sponsor of a single bill that became law, and he got his ass kicked in his primary for turning his back on President Trump.
Just a psa: When November rolls around and you’re tempted to stay home thinking, “My one vote won’t change anything,” remember the Lindsey Clancy trial.
One vote can matter. Your voice matters. Your vote matters. Vote Red, friends.
We gotta keep driving this message home.
