Wow, what a week it has been. The Republican National Convention (RNC) wrapped up after the assassination attempt of Former President Trump with Pro-2A JD Vance as the Vice-President nominee on his ticket. Then moments before I sat down to write the first draft of this week’s President’s Message, BOOM! Biden has withdrawn from the Democratic POTUS Nomination race, endorsing his totally incompetent and extremely unlikable V.P. “Heels-up” Harris.

Republican National Convention

Although the extremely shortened Republican Party Platform does not make a strong 2A statement, the pick of Ohio Senator JD Vance, a former enlisted Marine with a strong 2A record does, and that’s far more important. The underlying message of the convention was “Unity”. IFC’s own Richard Rogers was a delegate to the Convention.

Trump Assassination Attempt

Although I briefly covered it last week, there are three things I’d like to mention here.

  1. As a former Pilot’s Union official, I’ve been involved in several airline crash investigations. Many of you have seen me on TV or heard me on the Radio talking about crashes. As I caution when on the air, it’s too early to know the facts, so let’s not rush to judgment. We do not know all of the details yet. Also, it appears the quality of this investigation is being compromised even as we speak. 
  2. Sean Davis, the highly respected co-founder of The Federalist, wrote an interesting piece describing the crippling of the Trump USSS detail. I’d suggest you read it here.
  3. Our Senators and Congressmen need to question the following people as identified by a retired USSS contact of mine:

“The Lead Advance Agent and others who conducted the physical security survey need to be heard from, not the USSS Director, who has no direct knowledge of what transpired before or during the assassination attempt”

Vice President Harris

Well, good old Joe from Scranton has decided not to run for reelection after all. The Democratic Party, already in chaos, has to contend with finding a nominee who stands a chance to beat President Trump. Biden has endorsed Harris (This shiv job has Obama’s hands all over it), Hillary Clinton has said she’s ready, and the others who would like the job realize that this is most likely a lost cause and they don’t want to be branded as losers. Never forget that this is the same group that has lied to America for three-plus years telling us how smart and spry Joe is. Don’t reward their attempted gaslighting of all of us. 

It truly saddens me that the days of pro-2A Democrats appear to be dead for now. Hopefully, those days can be resurrected–but not with this crowd of Dangerous Quacks at the helm. My only suggestion is to get your popcorn out and watch the anti-2A Dangerous Quacks devour each other. 

I’ll have a follow-up story on important 2A Decisions that have come out of the 9th Circuit, along with others this last week, in a few days.
