U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- Federal Judge Roger Benitez in San Diego, who has issued pro-Second Amendment rulings at least twice against California state statutes, was scheduled to hold an evidentiary hearing in another gun rights case Monday morning, and that is eliciting wails from gun prohibition groups. Anti-gun groups are already on the warpath against the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court. For example, the Seattle-based Alliance for Gun Responsibility is campaigning to prevent confirmation, calling Judge Barrett “a Second Amendment extremist.” Federal Judge Roger Benitez in San Diego appears to be the newest target of anti-gun...

President Donald Trump slammed Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden during the final presidential debate on Thursday night over Biden’s previous remarks about fracking. Biden responded to Trump’s comments and challenged the president to prove his claims with video and the president responded by doing just that.

A father described how he confronted the Manchester Arena bomber as he hid behind a wall with his bomb waiting to launch his attack,.... Chris Wild and his wife Julie Whitley exchanged a "look" as they walked around Salman Abedi, who was sitting with his back against a raised platform, out of sight of the arena doors, with his rucksack beside him.

President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden clashed in their final debate Thursday in Nashville. The two men were supposed to meet three times, but the second event was canceled after the president tested positive for the coronavirus and refused to debate remotely. They also debated with a mute button, preventing one candidates from interrupting the other during the initial response to a question. But there were still lots of sharp jabs between the two. Trump went into the debate trailing Biden by 7.9 percentage points in the Real Clear Politics poling average. Who do you think won...

You won’t believe this! It’s truly unbelievable that a truck, hauling a mobile home, made it across a makeshift bridge of hay bales, tires, logs and plywood, but he does! https://www.facebook.com/GoRECON/posts/10158300558708792

At least 16 people were killed and 90 others wounded after a powerful explosion rocked outside a provincial police office in Firoz Koah, capital of Afghanistan's western Ghor province on Sunday, a local official confirmed.

Check out the video!

I didn't watch the debate, but I did hear snippets. The moment, of what I heard, when he was the debate was when Trump said he was able to work with Congress and Biden was not and Biden couldn't make a rebuttal.

Trump: "Would you close down the oil industry?" Biden: "I would transition from the oil industry, yes." Trump: "That's a big statement." Biden: "That is a big statement."

Former Vice President Joe Biden asserted on Thursday that he had “not taken a penny from any foreign source” in response to recent allegations that his family had benefited from lucrative foreign dealings during the Obama administration.

The decision came following a lawsuit against federal and state officials for an array of religious freedom violations.. Two Colorado churches and their pastors are currently protected from the state’s enforcement of capacity limits and face masks during worship services thanks to an order handed down by a federal judge on October 15, 2020. This decision came following a lawsuit against federal and state officials for an array of religious freedom violations. Thomas More Society Special Counsel Rebecca Messall and co-counsel Brad Bergford, who are representing the congregations and their pastors, were pleased with the order.

Clearly, the president was interrupted more often than Biden.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) October 22, 2020 The president nailed Biden over and over again about his 47-year career and failure to accomplish so much of what Biden now says he would accomplish. I also thought Trump bringing up that Biden-Obama built those human cages was important.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) October 22, 2020 President Trump was outstanding. I couldn't be prouder. Biden was making faces and was very dishonest about some of his positions.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) October 22, 2020

Dead man walking. That's what I see when the "patriot and veteran" Tony Bobulinksi held his press conference a mere two hours before Biden took the stage for his final Presidential Debate against incumbent Donald J. Trump. The upshot? Joe lied when he claimed he never discussed Hunter's business dealings with China. We all knew that already but it felt good to approach the Presidential Debate with "liar" fresh in the minds of the American people. Naturally, the press tried to forge a link with Rudy Giuliani but Tony held firm on "no questions." Tony's presser almost eclipsed Amy Coney...

I actually thought Welker did a good job comparatively. Biden told a strew of lies and stuttered quite often, showing his age. I doubt this debate changed many minds but the clear winner was Trump imo. I cherish the opinions of my fellow freepers. Please share.

Thank goodness our social-media superiors keep us safe from disinformation! The New York Post’s insistence on tweeting out their original reporting on Hunter Biden’s e-mails resulted in Twitter locking their account on October 14th, along with a number of other users. Supposedly this was imposed because the NYP and others were retweeting misinformation, trying to work around a block imposed on the story’s URL.A week later, the NY Post’s account is still locked — even though the Bidens have never directly disputed the authenticity of Hunter Biden’s e-mail. It’s still locked even though the Post now reports independent corroboration...

New York City has been racing toward losing its position as the “safest big city in America” all year, but it’s got some competition coming into the home stretch. The City of Angels has been running up its own dismal record when it comes to violent crime. While still nowhere near Baltimore levels, Los Angeles has now racked up more killings than it did in all of 2019. And if a way isn’t found to turn things around, they are on pace to see more than 300 murders by the end of the year. It hasn’t been this bad...
