@ewarren You are the ones that rigged it. When the government started co signing for the loans the price skyrocketed. Stop coving the loans and universities will be forced to start charging a fair price.
In Mass we have to register all our guns anyways. If the $200 tax is now $0 what’s the downside to registering all my rifles and shotguns as SBS’s and SBR’s? @capegunworks@GOALupdate#rapidfireradio
@Fat_Electrician And written in words the average voter can understand. Enough of the legal mumbo jumbo. Americans are simple people, we say what we mean and mean what we say. Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. Now go forth and prosper.
@TheAKGuy Just goes to show you it’s not about the money it’s about the registration. The knowledge of who owns what and where exactly to find them is worth more than any amount of money.
🚨BREAKING🚨
Democrats plan to raise a point of order against the $0 NFA tax stamp provision in H.R. 1 tonight.
Republicans must defeat this point of order, fire/overrule the Parliamentarian, & fully repeal suppressors & short barreled firearms from the NFA.
🚨 BREAKING 🚨
The Parliamentarian cleared $0 NFA tax stamps for suppressors & short-barreled firearms—but don’t be fooled.
This is a half-measure.
Gun owners demand FULL deregulation—no taxes, no registry, no compromise.
@LeaderJohnThune & @JDVance must override her NOW.
Absolutely absurd, and sadly I don’t even have high hopes that anything will be done about it. My biggest fear is that we are being pushed into a corner with only one way out.

Civil Rights Coalition Asks U.S. Attorney to Investigate Attorney General Grants
Boston, MA. . .Today, Toby Leary, the Chairman of The Civil Rights Coalition, is asking U.S. Attorney Leah Belaire Foley to investigate Attorney General Andrea Campbell’s grant to the Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence and its connection to the newly formed ballot committee “Yes for a Safe Massachusetts.” Both entities are organized by the same person, Ruth Zakarin.
“Our tax dollars are not supposed to be used for political campaigns. I find it hard to believe that Zakarin receives a huge grant from the Attorney General’s office and, within weeks, opens a ballot campaign account. It is too coincidental. That’s why today we are asking for the U.S. Attorney to take a deep dive into the books for both organizations,” said Leary.
According to an April 7th press release issued by Attorney General Campbells’ office, Ruth Zakarin is the CEO of the Massachusetts Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence and her organization was awarded a $50,000 grant. Records filed with the Office of Campaign and Political Finance on May 9th show Zakarin to be the Chairman of “Yes for a Safe Massachusetts.”
The Civil Rights Coalition is asking for the U.S. Attorney to investigate bank statements along with communications between the Attorney General’s office, the new ballot committee, and Gun Violence Coalition.
“Our organization is striving to restore law-abiding residents their 2nd Amendment rights, and now we must work to protect our tax dollars from being abused,” said Leary.
The Civil Rights Coalition filed a complaint with the State Ethics Commission over a month ago. The recent response to their complaint was that there are no “conflict of interest law violations.”
“We did not suggest there was a conflict of interest. We believe there is an inappropriate funneling of tax dollars to a political organization. It is disappointing that the State Ethics Commission will not act. Fortunately, we can seek help from the U.S. Attorney’s office,” said Leary.
“Whether an elected official agrees or disagrees with an issue, it doesn’t give them the right to funnel money to a political organization,” said Leary. “We have seen Campbell ignore the will of the voters with the legislative audit ballot question, so it is extremely feasible she is once again putting her agenda ahead of the voters.”
