NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox took to NRATV Monday to announce that President Donald Trump will be speaking at the National Rifle Association Annual Meetings & Exhibits next week in Atlanta, Ga.
During his appearance, Cox spoke on President Trump’s historic first 100 days: "We now have a Supreme Court back on the side of individual freedom, back on the side of the Second Amendment," he said. "We have someone in the White House who supports the Second Amendment. That’s a big shocker after 8 years of Barack Obama." |

The reality is that if we are to have real commonsense federal laws (which, I know, is an oxymoron - according to the 2A, there can BE no federal restrictions whatsoever), McConnell will have to exercise the "nuke option" on normal legislation, and I'm not at all sure he would do that.
As it stands now, the Dems can stop Full Faith and Credit carry in the Senate with a filibuster. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
