If you want to know who is gunning for President in 2020 watch who shows up in Georgia to support the GOP for the runoff of the two Senate seats.
I've already notice Nicky Haley will be making a run. I expect to see Ted Cruz and Marko Rubio there also.
Think of the Georgia runoff as the beginning of the 2024 Presidential nomination for Republicans.

Cruz is my current front runner for 2024, but that's a long ways off and I could easily change.
I give both Cruz and Rubio credit... they both got their ass kicked by Trump, yet after the defeat they both did what was best for the country and supported the people's choice... unlike Romney, McCain and the Bush family who all tried to undermine Trump at every opportunity.
I'll never forgive McCain for sticking us with Obama care just so he could stick it to Trump. F**k the country, I'll show you who has the biggest dick!

Cruz is my current front runner for 2024, but that's a long ways off and I could easily change.
Cruz' current good standing will implode if and when TPP comes back up. He is a supporter of it and would support Biden on it. Which'll DQ him in MAGA circles.
The race is DeSantis' if he wins re-election in 2022 and wants it. Assuming he adopts MAGA positions on trade, immigration, and China.
Which begs the Q. Do any Repubs run on the MAGA platform again, or do they revert to the Bush positions on trade and amnesty? Haley is non-MAGA, Noem unknown, Rubio not so much.
The R party is close to national office extinction. Very hard tightrope to walk when the establishment doesn't want MAGA policies, and most candidates don't, while the base does. Post-Trump, whether now or 2024, is a bleak time for the party. The Trumpian blue collar voters will stay away from non-MAGA nominees.
In short, Trump was the likely last shot to save the country. No one will try to take on the Deep State again. Demo shifts make R unlikely to win prez again anyway.

If anyone is planning an 80% lower and jig setup, not much time left if Biden assumes power.
Uppers and parts kits may survive longer, but no guarantees. An ATF reinterpretation of regs, even when challenged immediately, might stand for years as court battles rage.

“Specifically, the ordinance targets federal policies that order the tracking or registering of firearms of ammunition, an idea that Democrats have been floating recently (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gun-control-rep-sheila-jackson-lee-national-firearm-registry-licensing). It also bars the enforcement of any effort to confiscate guns except from those who are ‘suspected criminals,’” Horowitz notes.
Specifically, section 4a of the Newton County ordinance grants the sheriff’s department “full authority to make an arrest of any and all federal agents that violate state laws and enforce regulations” that violate the Second Amendment. Finally, the ordinance bars anyone “who enforces or attempts to enforce any of the infringements identified in this ordinance” from “being hired as a law enforcement officer or to supervise law enforcement officers in the county.”

BREAKING NEWS: Seventy-Two Killed Resisting Gun Confiscation In Massachusetts
National Guard units seeking to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault weapons were ambushed by elements of a Para-military extremist faction. Military and law enforcement sources estimate that 72 were killed and more than 200 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.
Speaking after the clash, Massachusetts Governor Thomas Gage declared that the extremist faction, which was made up of local citizens, has links to the radical right-wing tax protest movement.
Gage blamed the extremists for recent incidents of vandalism directed against internal revenue offices. The governor, who described the group’s organizers as “criminals,” issued an executive order authorizing the summary arrest of any individual who has interfered with the government’s efforts to secure law and order.
The military raid on the extremist arsenal followed wide-spread refusal by the local citizenry to turn over recently outlawed assault weapons.
Gage issued a ban on military-style assault weapons and ammunition earlier in the week. This decision followed a meeting in early this month between government and military leaders at which the governor authorized the forcible confiscation of illegal arms.
One government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, pointed out that “none of these people would have been killed had the extremists obeyed the law and turned over their weapons voluntarily.”
Government troops initially succeeded in confiscating a large supply of outlawed weapons and ammunition. However, troops attempting to seize arms and ammunition in Lexington met with resistance from heavily-armed extremists who had been tipped off regarding the government’s plans.
During a tense standoff in the Lexington town park, National Guard Colonel Francis Smith, commander of the government operation, ordered the armed group to surrender and return to their homes. The impasse was broken by a single shot, which was reportedly fired by one of the right-wing extremists.
Eight civilians were killed in the ensuing exchange.
Ironically, the local citizenry blamed government forces rather than the extremists for the civilian deaths. Before order could be restored, armed citizens from surrounding areas had descended upon the guard units. Colonel Smith, finding his forces over matched by the armed mob, ordered a retreat.
Governor Gage has called upon citizens to support the state/national joint task force in its effort to restore law and order. The governor also demanded the surrender of those responsible for planning and leading the attack against the government troops.
Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and John Hancock, who have been identified as “ringleaders” of the extremist faction, remain at large.
And this fellow Americans, is how the American Revolution began, April 20, 1775.

Moment Utah 'child snatcher' is arrested after hero teacher armed with GUN 'stopped him abducting girl, 11, from elementary school playground
Police arrested Ira Cox-Berry, 41, after he allegedly snatched an 11-year-old girl while she was playing on the playground at Lincoln Elementary School in Ogden
Before Cox-Berry could get away with the girl an armed school employee shouted and demanded he leave and ushered students into a nearby classroom
After the children were inside the school, Cox-Berry approached the school building and began punching the window in an attempt to force his way inside
The school worker, who has a concealed-weapons permit, pulled out his gun and held off the 41-year-old while he called 911
Police arrived and arrested Cox-Berry after a brief struggle and charged him with attempted child kidnapping

I'm rather skeptical about this "It was a tragic accident" story regarding Mr. Baldwin. That guy is a lunatic...I heard today that there was a lot of tension on the set. Apparently there had been a "strike" the day before because some of the crew had to drive all the way to/from Albuquerque for accommodations. I wouldn't be surprised if that guy was just itching to kill somebody and today he got his wish. Said it happened during "rehearsal"...why the hell is he pointing a gun at that woman? What did he do?...blast her point blank? Why the hell do that? Pretend you're pulling the trigger...don't actually pull it. This doesn't make sense to me.

^^^ All of this.
Although, there is a floating rumor (silly internet conspiracy theory- likely) that the person that was killed in this trajedy had ties to a Clinton associated law firm, or something, and that this may have been a 'Clinton body count' hit. If there was anything remotely true or suspicious scenario, I doubt Mr Baldwin had anything to do with it or any knowledge of it. He is just a stupid evil moron that has no clue about reality that is getting some just payback.
Remember - if we removed all non-NRA member gun attacks from America, the gun violence in America would be 0.

“Ironically, the film is loosely based on a true story about an outlaw (played by Baldwin) who rescues his grandson after he had been convicted of murder for an accidental death — ironic also because Baldwin, who uses his celebrity status as an anti-gun activist, plays a good guy trying to defend his grandson with a gun.”

The fallout of the Alec Baldwin shooting tragedy has led to further questions about how a “prop gun” could have fired a live round that killed the film’s cinematographer Halyna Hutchins. Furthermore, another question that has gone under the radar is how the Baldwin shooting also led to the wounding of director Joel Souza.
It wasn’t a “prop gun.” It was an actual gun that was being used as a prop. TMZ reported on the development that sources close to the filming of “Rust” indicate that the gun used in the incident was also used off-set for “target practice.”
“The smoking gun that claimed the life of Halyna Hutchins might’ve been more than just an on-set prop — it was also being fired recreationally, even when cameras weren’t rolling,” TMZ reported.
“Multiple sources directly connected to the ‘Rust’ production tell TMZ … the same gun Alec Baldwin accidentally fired — hitting the DP and director — was being used by crews members off set as well, for what we’re told amounted to target practice,” the report added.
According to the BBC, a “prop gun” could mean a range of items, “from non-functioning weapons to cap guns… But it can also mean a real weapon, or one adapted for firing blanks.” However, Hollywood should ban the term from applying to actual firearms.
A disturbing 911 call shed light on how assistant director David Halls had given Baldwin the weapon that ultimately killed Hutchins and wounded Souza. Mamie Mitchell, the script supervisor of the film, made the 911 call for help, the Daily Mail reported.
“We need an ambulance out at Bonanza Creek Ranch right now. We have had two people accidentally shot on a movie set accidentally,” Mitchell said. As she is talking to the 911 operator she instructs someone else to make certain the ambulance has access to the road.

It will be interesting to see what the fall-out will be regarding guns on sets, and possibly in movies/TV after this trajedy. I imagine right now, many films in production and studios likely have a moritorium on use of guns on their sets, while they review and beef up their policies and protocols.
Ever since the wokitarian Hollywood elite celebs have been pushing for gun control in the name of gun violence, pro-2A advocates have called them out for wanting to ban the very object in real life that they use as a prop to glamorize objects and lifestyles in the movies to make millions off of. Will this trajedy get the anti-gun nuts rallied up to pressure Hollywood to do away with guns entirely in movies? The left seems to have no trouble cancelling anything else in our culture they deem unworthy if they can cast a shadow on it, from statues of prominant figures to innocent characters in cartoon books that they want to demonize. Will this event trigger them go put the pressure on Hollywood to cancel movies/shows with guns entirely?

Ummmm…didn’t at least 2 of the people he shot also have guns? And didn’t the prosecutor establish the fact that Kyle only shot them after they advanced on him with their guns pointed at him?

97186Yeah those Europeans seem to have it worse than we do...for now. Crazy isn't it?...just how far can they take this? Kinda sheds light on how so many tyrants of the past rose to power, and kept it. They weren't gone until everything was in ruins.

Yep. Last time the Germans rounded up certain innocent groups of people and detained them, it didn’t turn out so well. I remember a meme circulating over a year ago of a picture of a train box car with a caption that referred to something like: if you wondered if you would have ever helped the Nazi’s round people up and put them on trains, now you know. Of course, when that meme started circulating, it was when we were in the stages of the mask mandates and shutdowns. A lot of people took great offense to that meme saying it was out of context and completely irrelevant to the current circumstances that require government intervention for the safety of the population. Now we have actual government rounding people up and putting them in ‘camps’ and those same people still don’t see the correlation and relevance.
