The 2024 Defense Bill Threatens The Future Of 3D-Printed Firearms And Basic Gun Rights

Published

on

For 63 years, the United States Congress has drafted and passed the National Defense Authorization Act. The purpose of this act: to pass the country’s defense budget for the following fiscal year.

While Americans are focused on inflation and other trending topics, this bill passes every year under the radar. It’s Congress’s way of slowly chipping away at the constitutional rights of millions of Americans without any pushback — mainly because people don’t know about it. 

However, the 2024 NDAA (passed in July 2023) includes all sorts of new provisions, laws, and pork-barrel spending. But it also includes something slightly more sinister than redefining copyright infringements (a provision in the 2023 NDAA) and allocating billions of taxpayers’ dollars to defense spending. Hidden deep within the pile of obligatory spending requirements, between the veterans’ housing budget and a plan to rebuild a hospital in Vieques (a 21-mile-long island part of Puerto Rico), studious readers will notice a single paragraph:

Section 2(f) of the Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988 (18 U.S.C. 922 note; Public Law 100–649) is amended— (1) by striking ‘‘EFFECTIVE DATE AND SUNSET PROVISION’’ and all that follows through ‘‘This Act and the amendments’’ and inserting the following: ‘‘EFFECTIVE DATE.—This Act and the amendments’’; and (2) by striking paragraph (2).

The provision looks harmless enough at first glance. However, to fully understand how this paragraph further infringes the Second Amendment, one must understand what the 1988 Undetectable Firearms Act says, and why striking the effective date puts our

Is Christian Nonprofit Voter Outreach The Answer To Beating Democrats’ Election Machine?

Published

on

There used to be a day in America when elections were simple. Voters would show up to the polls on Election Day, cast their ballot, and know which candidate won that night before going to bed.

That is no longer the case following the 2020 election cycle.

The expansion of early and mass mail-in voting has turned Election Day into election season. In several states, voters are forced to wait days — and in some cases, weeks — before learning the outcome of an election. This has led many Americans to lack confidence in the electoral process.

Even more startling, however, has been the complete shift in how elections are won. Candidates and their policy platforms are no longer the main factors in predicting the outcome of any given race. Rather, it’s how many ballots from eligible electors can be “chased” and submitted at the behest of partisan actors ahead of Election Day.

In the case of Democrats, a big facet of their strategy involves the participation of left-wing nonprofit organizations, which aim to register so-called “underrepresented groups.” This includes demographics likely to vote for Democrats, such as racial minorities, college-educated women, and young people. Taking this approach allows these groups to skirt federal law, which prohibits 501(c)(3)s from engaging in “partisan” voter registration.

Investigative reports published by the Capital Research Center and Restoration of America have unearthed how embracing nonprofit voter registration has netted Democrats potentially millions of votes across battleground states in recent elections. Given

Democrats Can’t Boot Biden Without ‘Denying’ The Primary Election 

Published

on

Democrats love to talk about democracy almost as much as they love to bring up “Russia! Russia! Russia!” The blue party’s usual talking points about preserving “America’s sacred cause” at whatever cost (literally), however, were suspiciously lacking from their commentary on the first presidential debate.

For years, Democrats and their corporate media cronies have gnashed their teeth and stomped their feet about “defending democracy” by smearing election integrity and attacking Republicans who try to protect women and children.

Democrats are so dead set on their definition of democracy that they joined establishment Republicans to waste billions of American tax dollars on an overseas war between two corrupt countries that has no oversight or end in sight. Never mind that the United States, which is technically a republic, is on the brink of destruction thanks to the leftist party.

They also put incessant pressure on former President Donald Trump to “accept the results of the election” while most of their own routinely rejected their party’s losses.

.@DanaBashCNN: “Will you pledge tonight that once all legal challenges have been exhausted, that you will accept the results of this election regardless of who wins? And you will say right now that political violence in any form is unacceptable?”

Instead of advancing “democracy” by promoting what they purport to be voters’ wishes for the future of the nation now, however, Democrat strategists, corporate media, and late-night keyboard lurkers collectively agreed by

The Real Winner Of Last Night’s Debate Was Gavin Newsom

Published

on

California’s far-left governor spent the hour before Thursday night’s debate in the media spin room ostensibly cheerleading for a president he knows he is about to replace, either in four years or four months.

“This is it,” Gov. Gavin Newsom told reporters ahead of the primetime event, going after former President Donald Trump more than promoting President Joe Biden. “This is liberalism versus illiberalism.”

“This is very sobering for me and I hope for the American people,” Newsom added.

What was more sobering, however, was when the 81-year-old incumbent took the stage and put his senility on display. Here are some of the headlines Americans woke up to Friday morning:

The Trump campaign was quick to capitalize on Biden’s poor performance with an ad highlighting some of the president’s worst moments.

Immediately after the debate ended, CNN’s John King noted “a deep, a wide and a very aggressive panic” engulfing the Democratic Party.

“It started minutes into the debate and it continues right now,” King said. “It involves party strategists. It involves elected officials. It involves fundraisers. And they are having conversations about the president’s performance which they think was dismal.”

“Some of those conversations,” King added, “include ‘should we go to the White House and ask the president to step aside?’ Other conversations are about ‘should prominent Democrats go public with that call?’”

CNN’s John King reflects on #CNNDebate: “This was a game-changing debate…there is a deep a wide and a very aggressive panic in the Democratic
