@grok let the people know, but be honest. Are we putting out some of the most hard hitting and cutting edge articles for liberty or what? And what do you think of our thumbnail, @beauflynn and @TrippVinson ? I think we're putting out the most lethal takes in the industry.

"Selective Enforcement quoted @ATFDirectorRC making the same argument about guns: "The only way you reduce violent crime is by being laser focused on the people that are responsible for it." That's right. It's also a description of what a wider net makes harder."

" @PolkCoSheriff says the same thing in his own words: "I am over it when people tell you that drugs are low-level and non-violent," as we reported in "Stopping Sex Trafficking While Creating the Conditions for It." Once every offender belongs to the dangerous few by definition, the contradiction disappears..."

Are you a conservative who has come to believe the "noticers" or "pattern recognizers" are on your side? What do they deliver for your movement?

@carynannharlos The right would also be cooler if they really went after those left politicians who take our guns in direct violation of the Constitution

@ProsperCLT2023@Gnome4308 I'd vote for a Libertarian candidate any time they maintained a genuinely libertarian platform and either:
A. They can actually win the election
Or
B. Any other candidate which could win the election would not be of consequence to policies affecting liberty
Buttigieg wants a national popular vote. DeSantis defends the Electoral College. Either way, they're arguing over whose votes campaigns have to chase.
Under any system, the cheapest vote to win is the loyal one.
If a party knows it owns you, it never has to earn you.
If Trump was worried about who would replace him, the obvious tactical move would be for him to swap Hegseth and confirm the new DOW while Republicans hold the Senate. Then there's nothing to impeach. Keeping the guy facing impeachment articles is the opposite of protecting the seat.
Impeachment is the first step toward removal. You can't call it 'only an impeachment' and also say it was too risky because Republicans might replace him. Trump can fire Hegseth and nominate someone new today with this Senate, no impeachment needed. And if you think someone worse than Hegseth is waiting in the wings, I'd love to hear who.
They could have. The referral motion passed 211-204. Eleven Democrats were absent. Adding their expected "no" votes would have flipped it to 211-215, defeating the motion and keeping the articles alive for a floor vote. Seven Republicans were also absent, but the Democratic absences alone exceeded the margin.
