I've long said the only folks who will ever "come for your guns" are the republicans. Every accusation is a confession.
DOJ is openly stating that "trannies shouldn't have guns."
The Trump administration is moving to strip trans people of their 2nd amendment rights. Nothing good ever comes out of an authoritarian regime stripping a minority group of owning guns.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law.
A new generation that gives meaning to the “we” in “we the people.”
Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as the future.

Those on the high court often exercise caution in their choice of words. That is why it was striking when she used an audience of lawyers to deliver a stern message to the legal profession: stand up for democracy, take on the hard fights and do whatever you can to win.
