Joe Biden more than once pledged not to pardon his son Hunter Biden, but today he did

 The period covered by the pardon goes all the way back to January 1, 2014 for any and all crimes Hunter may have committed, too. You know, like tax crimes. The statute of limitations for tax crimes is ten years.

This wasn't just about the gun crimes.

Meanwhile, 363 people were convicted of tax fraud in 2023, and 63% went to prison. 

It's great to be a Democrat.

 

Tim Walz took his trap gun on a pheasant hunt, with which he struggled

 The female accompanying Walz brought the correct gun, a break action.

Very embarrassing.

The New York Times is Vice

Senator Warnock of Georgia confirms Kamala Harris still advocates for gun confiscation, just as he does

 

CBS News lies about heat deaths, now AP Obama blatantly lies about what JD Vance said

It's almost like you can't trust the news 😏 .

 

 

Like Democrats generally Kamala Harris wants to ban assault weapons, even though they can't define them, ignoring that most weapons crimes are committed with handguns

Meanwhile, conservatives want children to read age-appropriate books.

There are no banned books in America, unless you are a commie librarian, but I repeat myself, who won't stock conservative books demanded by the public.

Like guns, we have to go buy our own.

 

Four things she ran on which Kamala Harris says she no longer supports for some reason: Medicare for All, A Fracking Ban, Border Funding Reductions, Mandatory Firearm Buybacks

What could the reason be lol?

 

 

How did Democrat women end up like this?

 

No one is above the law except for some of us, like Hallie Biden and the US Secret Service: Yesterday Hunter Biden was convicted of gun crimes, Joe Biden minutes later says families must be held accountable

 Apparently Hallie Biden won't be charged in any of this.

Nor the US Secret Service, which swooped in to try and get Hunter's falsified background check paperwork for the gun purchase and make Hunter's little problem go away:

Secret Service agents approached the owner of the store where Hunter bought the gun and asked to take the paperwork involving the sale, according to two people, one of whom has firsthand knowledge of the episode and the other was briefed by a Secret Service agent after the fact.

The gun store owner refused to supply the paperwork, suspecting that the Secret Service officers wanted to hide Hunter’s ownership of the missing gun in case it were to be involved in a crime, the two people said. The owner, Ron Palmieri, later turned over the papers to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, which oversees federal gun laws.

The Secret Service made the White House cocaine problem go away just last summer.

Chicago Tribune Editorial Board wrings its hands over 450k Illinoisans with concealed carry permits now firing back, calls the right to self-defense "taking the law into your own hands"

 Worryingly, we’re seeing more signs of that phenomenon in Chicago, with three separate episodes over the last weekend in which would-be victims proved to be both armed and willing to fire at their assailants. Four people who police said were attacking these concealed carry holders were shot and wounded, all of them critically, according to a report by Block Club Chicago.

More.

Yeah, citizens doing the job the cops and the courts won't do is horrible.

Hey, concealed carry holders, go back to the range and improve your aim, will ya?

Last August the FBI gunned down 75-year old Craig Deleeuw Robertson in his Utah home, two days ago the ATF mortally wounded 53-year old Bryan Malinowski in his Arkansas home

Totally normal.

Judge Sharon Coleman, Obama-appointed chaos agent, simply declares illegal alien has a right to own a gun despite what the law says

 "The Court finds that Carbajal-Flores' criminal record, containing no improper use of a weapon, as well as the non-violent circumstances of his arrest do not support a finding that he poses a risk to public safety such that he cannot be trusted to use a weapon responsibly and should be deprived of his Second Amendment right to bear arms in self-defense," Coleman, who was appointed under President Barack Obama, wrote in her eight-page ruling filed March 8.

Carbajal-Flores was charged under Title 18 of U.S. Criminal Code, which legally disallows undocumented individuals to possess firearms and ammunition "or to receive any firearm or ammunition which has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce."

Antifa's anarchist dream comes to Haiti: Bullet ridden bodies in the streets of the safe part of town

Haiti violence: Residents see no end to crisis as capital city reels from gang warfare

12 hours ago

Violence has engulfed the streets of Port-au-Prince

"Port-au-Prince is in panic mode," a friend in the Haitian capital texted me.

Residents of Petionville, a wealthier area of of the city, are shaken after their most violent day so far in the country's spiralling security crisis.

More than a dozen bullet-ridden bodies lay in the street - the victims of the latest gang rampage.

As well as the early morning killing spree, the home of a judge was also attacked - a clear message to the country's elites vying for power.

All this in what is supposedly the safe part of town.

Unicef's executive director, Catherine Russell, has called the situation in Haiti "horrific" and likened the lawlessness to the post-apocalyptic film, Mad Max.

Certainly the latest violence in Port-au-Prince is a reminder, if any were needed, that Haiti remains closer to anarchy than stability.

In that malaise, the UN has also estimated, because of the closure of so many hospitals in the capital, some 3,000 pregnant women were at risk of having to give birth with no maternity care.

Remember the $13 billion poured into Haiti after the January 2010 earthquake?

 

Money is no match against guns, which are strictly prohibited in Haiti, so the vast number of law-abiding people there are completely defenseless against the gangs.

The incidents were related in that the two suspects allegedly used AR-style weapons

It is unknown whether seasonal affective disorder may have played a role in these cases, coming as they did in, or shortly after, the winter season.

NBC News, March 27, 2023:

“There’s some belief that there was some resentment for having to go to that school,” Metropolitan Nashville Police Chief John Drake told Lester Holt of NBC News. ... “She targeted random students in the school ... whoever she came in contact with, she fired rounds,” Drake said, referring to the shooter. ... He said Hale was transgender. 

CNN, February 12, 2024:

The woman, identified in a search warrant as Genesse Ivonne Moreno, 36, entered the church shortly before 2 p.m. wearing a trench coat and backpack and opened fire, Houston Police Chief Troy Finner said in a Sunday afternoon news conference. ... Attorney William Capasso said he represented Moreno in 2021-2022 and told CNN that Genesse Ivone Moreno went by the name Jeffrey Moreno Carranza at the time.
