The guns generally lumped into these bans aren't "weapons of war," no matter how many times nitwits repeat that claim. They are functionally identical to many, less-scary guns on the market, which are never included in proposed laws. An AR-15, it seems, is nasty and bad, but a Winchester 100, functionally identical but firing a more powerful cartridge, is not. There's just no sense to any of this.]]>Tue, 30 Jun 2026 14:58:19 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]><![CDATA[Firearms]]><![CDATA[Guns]]><![CDATA[Second Amendment]]><![CDATA[Supreme Court]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/06/30/big-assault-weapon-bans-now-headed-to-scotus-n2203868<![CDATA[Based on recent electoral results, democratic socialism is hotter than the current “heat dome.” In fact, democratic socialism is so red-hot (no pun intended) that it is turning blue districts red, socialist red that is.]]>Tue, 30 Jun 2026 14:35:06 -0400<![CDATA[The Heartland Institute]]><![CDATA[2026 Elections]]><![CDATA[California]]><![CDATA[Colorado]]><![CDATA[Democrat Party]]><![CDATA[Socialism]]>https://redstate.com/heartlandinstitute/2026/06/30/democratic-socialist-melat-kiros-will-definitely-deliver-change-for-denver-n2203866<![CDATA[This is why we can't have nice things.]]>Tue, 30 Jun 2026 13:41:42 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]><![CDATA[Transgender]]><![CDATA[America 250]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/06/30/daughters-of-the-american-revolution-now-vote-to-admit-transgender-women-n2203861<![CDATA[Despite leftists nationwide squawking about how awful America is, the nation's upcoming 250th birthday has sparked a wave of patriotism all over the country. It just may be the "golden age" President Donald Trump has spoken of. But as with most things, there are a few who have to spoil it for everyone else.
