No, I don't, but I think it was a formality and it was Garland, not Biden, pushing it.

Every media event, committee, accusation and investigation leading up to this event has been nothing burgers, boondoggles, dog and pony shows. It’s all been created and dreamed up in peoples heads by creative writing and tv drama. But not this one huh? Ya got’em now! Holdin’ on tight to that one are ya? You never know though, even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.

I don't believe for one second that Garland didn't run this by the Chief Executive, his boss. And if he didn't what does that say about him? It was one thing to do that to Roger Stone, but a recent sitting President. It clearly shows that Biden, Garland, the DOJ and the FBI are now the American version of the KGB.

Your words, not mine.
Apparently a new GOP plan to win in 2024 is raising the voting age back to 21 to keep those 16 somethings away from the polls. Too bad it's fixed in the 26th amendment. https://constitution.congress.gov/co.../amendment-26/

What Republican law maker is saying this? And what chance would a law like this have of clearing the President's desk before the 2024 election?

Yes that was the reason, but it doesn’t make 18 year olds any more mature or knowledgeable. Tuff call. Even so, I don’t ever expect it to change no matter what the tv drama and creative writers would have me or you to believe. It’s another nothing burger.

“I respect the culture and the tradition and the concerns of lawful gun owners, Biden said from the White House. “At the same time, the Second Amendment, like all other rights, is not absolute.”

Read the entire sentence. Biden said he respected the culture, tradition and the concerns of LAWFUL gun owners. (That’s a good thing for any president to say regardless of party affiliation). Then the part where he says “At the same time, the Second Amendment, like all other rights, is not absolute.” Which is lawyer legalese speak for, don’t break the law because if you do. Not even the second amendment can save you. At least that’s what I got out of it.

What I took from that is Biden thinks constitutionally guaranteed rights can be infringed upon. He's talked repeatedly about gun bans and other infringements. I don't buy at all that he was referring to law breakers.

I've mentioned it before. According to your 2nd Amendment you are allowed to carry a weapon.
Nowhere in the 2nd Amendment can I read what kind of weapon it has to be. Which for me indicate that it's up to you to decide what kind of weapon you want. On the other hand it also give the government carte blanche to add law to your 2nd Amendment saying Americans are free to carry only 9 mm pistol. Owner of bigger gun has to go through exercise and other things(Here I'm thinking psychological test and other test) Markus
