Agreed.
When people ask me where I live, I say, "Behind enemy lines."
I also tell people: "I live in New York. Some day, I hope to move to The United States. I hear that it's nice there."
It's not a question. There is NFW that 60 senators will vote for a cloture vote to close debate and allow a final vote on the legislation.
This type of bill is a pipe dream. Nothing more.
We live in New York. Perhaps some day, we too can live in The United States.
When checking declared pistols at Westchester Airport a few years ago, everything ran very smoothly. But, police did check my New York permit (not a CCW) against the serial numbers on the pistols.
Someone without a New York permit should not try to check firearms at a New York state, let alone...
I do not have the specific reference. But, I recall reading that the weapon system responsible for the most deaths in WWII was incendiary bombs. These were extremely effective when bombing Japanese cities that were heavily based on wooden structures. As was already stated, the fire-bombing of...
I believe that a House committee is being established to act as a government conduit for DOGE. That way, there will be a direct pathway for the Musk-Ramaswamy project's recommendations to get to congress for review and implementation.
As Hegseth stated, someone requiring medications such as inhalers in order to be effective in the field is not combat-ready because they cannot be guaranteed to have medications in the field. Doing surgery on service members that makes them dependent on medications (ex/ hormone supplements)...
Apparently, one person's misinformation is another person's truth. Given that truth is not subjective, only one of those sides can be correct. Ergo, "let's go to the real science and see what is provably correct."
I mostly reload pistol cartridges.
Did dry tumbling with lizard litter corn media and polish for a few years. Tons of dust.
Changed to wet tumbling with Frankford Arsenal rotary tumbler. Started with steel pins. Subsequently decided to tumble wash cases without pins so as to avoid the...
PLEASE... do NOT nominate Dan Bongino for Director of Secret Service.
Let Dan advise. Let him consult on a Director.
Dan does much more for conservativatism with his podcast and radio show than he can do in the government.
Jurisdiction found a way to save money.

Ahhh... but with massive social media, we can politically threaten uncooperative elected officials with primary challenges.
We need to make it difficult for representatives to publically support wasting OUR money.
I don't give a damn!
Law-abiding citizens should not have their right to purchase defensive "arms" curtailed because of what some criminal might do with the same item.

Nortaroga is correct.
Senate rules require 60 votes on legislation to end debate. Once debate has ended, after the cloture vote, the question can be called and a simple majority wins.
Harry Reid famously threw out the filibuster rule for judicial appointments. McConnell then threw it out for...
