POCATELLO — White House communications director Jen Psaki said Dec. 18 that President Barack Obama’s planned executive action on gun control would come in “weeks, not months.”

Roll Call reported Wednesday that “senior congressional aides and sources in the gun-control community” indicate that the president will issue his executive actions after the Christmas vacation.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest admitted that Obama’s team of lawyers have been “scrubbing through the law” to find avenues for gun control expansion, according to the Roll Call report.

Obama met with gun control proponent Michael Bloomberg earlier this month to discuss possible ways to circumvent Congress and expand gun control.

No president has ever issued as many EOs as OZero has. But it’s not just that he has issued more than all other presidents combined. He is the first to issue them for anything other than the routine minutia of running the White House. I’m told Ronald Reagan issued only a few - most dealing with things like when his staff could and could not use vacation time and procedures for ordering office supplies.

Do you *think* you want a civil war? - If so, consider the
cost & understand there is no turning back. - It is
reported that Gen. Robt. E. Lee remarked after his
surrender to Grant and seeing the aftermath of that, said
that IF HE HAD KNOWN what would fall on the heads of the
defeated after the war; he would have never, never, have
surrendered. - Surely Obama has enough sense not to try
any funny business in this next year - WHICH WILL FLY BY
ON THE WINGED STEED , so he and Mooch better sop up all
the benefits they can stuff in their bags before they go.

Trump just needs to say again that he will reverse any actions from obama.
I do not see the republicans doing anything other then fund everything obama wants.

“Thank God we have a Republican Congress and a 5-4 majority on SCOTUS.”

Yeah, well, that and 3 bucks will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

Yes, most Republicans and some Democrats in Congress can and will neutralize the order. If they hadn’t defeated so many bad bills already, quite a few gun control laws would have passed. It’s how they’ve stayed in office.

Isn’t he planning to ban sales of ammunition for the AR-15? Thought I saw that on Facebook.

There must be NO expansion from executive order or thru passage or a compromise deal on H.R. 4269. Even giving an inch to these traitors means an inch never taken back. The traitors pushing this crap know fully well they can achieve their final objective through passage of incremental legislation or EO’s. Our lousy “R” branch of the Uniparty must not cave or give that inch under any circumstances!

On my side of the state (eastern) the new law is ignored with gusto (including LE) except for a few very nervous sellers. Certainly no one even gives it a thought before handing to a family mber or friend.
