Armed Response — Not Gun Control — Stopped the D.C. Hilton Attack
When policymakers debate gun laws, they often do so in the abstract. But occasionally, real-world events provide a clearer test of how those policies function under pressure. The recent attempted assassination of President Trump at the Washington Hilton — during one of the most heavily secured events in the country — is one such case. […]
Washington Is Rebranding a National Gun Ban — Texans Must Stop It
Washington isn’t backing down. It’s regrouping. A new federal gun control push is being sold as the “Virginia model,” a supposedly reasonable, state-tested approach to public safety. But it’s not new. It’s the same gun ban agenda that’s been failing in Congress for years — now repackaged to sound more acceptable. Same Agenda, New Strategy Federal “assault […]
Texas Gun Rights Takes the No-Compromise Fight to Washington, D.C.
While the political class in Washington trades in compromise, Texas Gun Rights is bringing a very different message. Last week, TXGR took its no-compromise Second Amendment agenda straight to the nation’s capital, making it clear that the fight to defend and restore gun rights isn’t stopping in Austin. It’s expanding. Bringing the Fight to Capitol […]
The NRA Fixed Its Books, But Not Its Strategy
Houston was supposed to be the reset. At this year’s NRA convention, leadership rolled out a familiar message: the scandals are behind them, the books are cleaned up, and every dollar is now being scrutinized. After years of revelations about lavish spending, internal corruption, and a collapse in trust under longtime leadership, the pitch was […]
DOJ Delivers Major Win in Paxton Case Backed by Texas Gun Rights, Crushing Biden-Cornyn Gun Control Scheme
Washington just blinked. In a major development out of the ongoing Texas v. ATF lawsuit, the Department of Justice has dropped its defense of the ATF’s “engaged in the business” rule — a sweeping Biden-era policy designed to crack down on private gun sales and expand federal control over law-abiding gun owners. For months, gun […]
Cornyn’s Power Grab Just Put Texas in Play — And Democrats Are Cashing In
While Republicans are still tearing each other apart, Democrats are loading their war chest. And they’re doing it fast. New fundraising reports show Democrat James Talarico pulling in massive sums early, building one of the most well-funded Senate campaigns Texas has seen in years. Meanwhile, Republicans are still stuck cleaning up the mess of John […]
U.S. Senate Hearing Calls Out ATF’s Illegal Billion-Record Gun Registry
For years, gun owners were told the same thing: “There is no federal gun registry.” Now, even members of the U.S. Senate are being forced to confront a different reality. During a recent Senate hearing, lawmakers pressed federal officials over the explosive growth of the ATF’s firearm records database — a system that now contains […]
The End of the USPS Handgun Ban Is in Motion — But Not Here Yet
For nearly a century, federal law has prohibited ordinary Americans from mailing handguns through the U.S. Postal Service. That restriction, rooted in a 1927 statute, is now on the verge of collapse. But while the legal foundation of the ban has already been undermined, the practical ability for gun owners to mail handguns is still […]
Tony Gonzales Resigns; The Fight for TX-23 Just Got a Whole Lot More Dangerous
The political earthquake in Texas’ 23rd Congressional District hit last week. Congressman Tony Gonzales is officially out, resigning in disgrace after a mounting scandal made his position untenable. But while Gonzales may be gone, the real fight is just beginning. What was already shaping up to be a high-stakes midterm showdown between pro-gun champion Brandon […]
Nearly 6 Million Suppressors Are In Civilian Hands & What That Means for the Future of the NFA
The number of legally registered firearm suppressors in the United States is now approaching 5.7 million, according to the latest federal data obtained by the American Suppressor Association. That figure represents a dramatic increase over the past decade, and it raises a fundamental legal question: At what point does a heavily regulated item become so widely […]
