Yep, it reminds me I need to start dinner.

Yeah, it's always a race to the remote to change the channel when you don't realize the football game is over. The only thing anyone learns from SeeBS' 60 minutes is how to be more ignorant than when you started watching.

of course it is not auto. if the below is the transcript, they don't say 'auto' but they most likely showed an auto and certainly implied it (which of course is a little more costly and difficult to come by). (and which would also be more in line with what the founding fathers wanted in order to allow to form a militia or protect ourselves from foreign enemies)

(by the way, this take expressed in the article (and probably the segment on TV) on cause-effect seems pretty insane....):
"Jonathan Lowy: If you think fentanyl overdoses are a problem, if you think migration across the border is a problem, if you think the spread of organized crime is a problem in the United States, then you should care about stopping the crime gun pipeline to Mexico. And you need to stop it at its source. Because all those problems are driven by the supply of U.S. guns to the cartels."

Close. They were far more concerned about the U.S. government than any foreign enemy. The Second Amendment isn't about hunting and it isn't about Canada or the Brits or Mexicans. It's entirely about the U.S. government.
A fearful society is a compliant society. That's why Democrats and criminals prefer their victims to be unarmed. Gun Control is not about guns, it's about control.

Is it a fully automatic, belt fed, machine gun?

People like me arrest these people and people like Tom Fox represent these people. Its the circle of life in the justice system. Depending on the position, it pays very well. I don't complain about my government check.
2025 sure started off with a bang.

It is a symbiotic relationship. LoL.

I was a LEO for 16 years and a felony prosecutor for 3. I did my time on that side. Gained valuable experience that helps me tremendously on this side. Now. I'm getting paid son.

If the pay was the same, I'd still be locking them up. But it is not even close.

Great effects on target & fun to employ - but only if you can get it into position. The 240 can be hand carried, repositioned by one man, and I've personally had fewer issues with them (even when properly head spaced and timed - back when that was a necessity).

Oh boy. Combining the glorious 'media' of 60-minutes, and Chris Wray on his way out the door. Pretty brutal replies.

plus the fact that the defendants are entitled to a defense?

I know one thing for sure.. if I'm ever charged with a crime I want the BEST defense attorney I can afford to ensure my rights are protected and I receive due process.

Surprised no talk of repealing the 1984 (or whatever) ban this year.
Trump is not a strong 2A guy, never really has been. He couldn't wait to ban bump stocks and he would be fine with more restrictions not less. He certainly isn't in favor of repealing the machine gun ban. Plenty of things I like about Trump but 2A isn't on that list.

Well, really we need to see who he picks for the ATF I think but I like the list so far, to the extent the rumors are accurate:
Quote:
As it turns out, a couple of the folks on the list should be very familiar to Bearing Arms' readers and listeners/viewers of the Cam & Co podcast.
Quote:
Transition officials have told gun rights groups that they do not expect Mr. Trump to pick an A.T.F. director before next spring, but caution that he is just as likely to tap somebody on impulse, at any moment, without consulting his transition team.

Those said to be under consideration are: Blake Masters, a far-right conservative in Arizona who is close to the financier Peter Thiel and who mounted a failed bid for a House seat; Peter J. Forcelli, a former bureau official who wrote a book on the "Fast and Furious" scandal; Larry Keane, the head of the gun manufacturers' trade association; and several current and former top A.T.F. officials, including Robert Cekada, Daniel Board and Rick Dressler.
Forcelli didn't just write a book on Operation Fast & Furious. He was one of the whistleblowers who called attention to the gunwalking scandal, and suffered retaliation from higher-ups in Obama's Justice Department for his actions.

Forcelli's also been a regular guest on Cam & Co since the release of his book The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels earlier this year, and I consider him to be a friend, so I'm thrilled that he's being considered for the top slot at BATFE.

Forcelli is the antithesis of David Chipman, the former ATF agent who was working for the gun control group Giffords when he was tapped by Joe Biden to head up the agency (Chipman's nomination ultimately tanked, leading to Dettelbach becoming Biden's second choice). Forcelli doesn't see the firearms industry or lawful gun owners as an enemy of the ATF, and he's been vocally opposed to the ATF rules on unfinished frames and receivers, pistol stabilizing braces, and those "engaged in the business" of dealing firearms that have been implemented under Biden's watch.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation's Larry Keane has also been a regular guest on Cam & Co over the years, and despite Keane's love of the New York Yankees I consider him a friend as well. With decades of experience in dealing with the agency from an industry perspective, Keane would be a fascinating (if polarizing) choice to head up the ATF, and like Forcelli and Masters would definitely be an agent of change if selected.

Of all the candidates named by Thrush, Keane would probably face the most opposition from Democrats and the gun control lobby because he too is the exact opposite of a committed gun control activist like Chipman. Keane's first-hand dealings with the ATF over the past few decades gives him a unique insight into the many reforms that are desperately needed at the agency, and it would be interesting (to say the least) to have someone from the firearms industry heading up the agency in charge of enforcing federal gun policy.
He never managed to get an ATF director confirmed, the first term, which is still to this day frustrating.

They were teasing the Wray interview this morning.

He was alerting Pelly as to the deep infiltration of US infrastructure by China. Basically claiming that every pipeline,water system, energy facility, etc. etc. already has sleeper Chinese malware installed, so that they can bring it all crashing down an time they wish.

Thought one: Wasn't it your job to stop that?

Thought two: I thought that white supremacists were the greatest threat we were facing?

Thought three: Good thing you devoted all the resources you did to important things, such as parents who attend PTA meetings.

Thought four: Unpostable, due to language, wishes for violence and retribution, and pure frustration

And they are (news this month!) building ships akin to modern versions of our 'mulberry harbors' now for a putative Taiwan invasion.


This is rumored to be a consequence of Pelosi's irresponsible visit to Taiwan back in August 2022, 6 months after the Ukraine war kicked off, triggering heightened/rushed plans for a Taiwan operation/war by China.

Anyway, apologies for derail, I will stop. Norah O'Donnell went onboard the USS Nimitz to discuss the challenge of China's naval buildup in mid-2023 for 60-minutes, which I am sure was a fluff piece, too.

Even as a kid I always thought 60 Minutes after football sucked. I mean they have Political shows on before football and then have to go right back to them after football. That was back when it was just a liberal bias and not pure propaganda that would make Pravda blush.

It's mind boggling 60 Minutes is still on after being repeatedly proven to put out complete lies regularly. Of course the same people still idolize Dan Rather.

Yup. It was Obama's Fast & Furious program that sold guns illegally to Mexican cartels and sent them across the border.
Trump will fix it.

And you got to know SeeBS ponied up a lot of cash to make sure they had NFL games on Sunday afternoon for the sole purpose to ensnare some of the NFL fandom into their web of lies. I'm sure the producers were/are very jealous of the viewing the NFL gets that they don't!
