Seattle’s mayor has announced yet another plan to reduce gun violence, and once again taxpayers are being told that more programs, more government coordination, more spending and more restrictions on lawful gun ownership are the answer. The problem is that Seattle has been traveling down this road for decades. Self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist Mayor Katie Wilson’s newly announced strategy comes after the deadly July shooting at the Bite of Seattle event.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has avoided an impeachment vote after Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson called an early recess, canceling votes scheduled for Thursday. Hegseth’s political future was put in harm’s way after Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY.), a frequent critic of President Donald Trump critic who lost his primary earlier this year to a Trump-endorsed challenger, introduced articles of impeachment on the House floor on Tuesday citing the defense secretary’s management of the war in Iran and stewardship of the Pentagon. He introduced the resolution as privileged, which under House rules forces a floor vote within two legislative days. A…
There’s good news to report out of Massachusetts, where two cases that Bearing Arms has been following have now seen charges dismissed and gun owners vindicated.
