Time for the North Carolina General Assembly to override Josh Stein’s veto on Constitutional Carry.
Get it done. End your term on a high note. The voters next go around will remember your courage.
From the article:
"Senate Bill 50 would allow most adults to carry concealed handguns without a permit. The Senate has already overridden Stein’s veto, but the House has not. Cooper said a veto override is unlikely at this point.
@ncspeakerhall , have you and the Republican caucus you lead made a deal with Senator-elect Cooper and Governor Stein?
You made a promise on April 21st to gun rights voters across the state.
Your failure to override the veto of SB50 prior to the election cost you many seats there. Failure to do so now will be chains around their necks two years from now as well.
Is this the legacy you want? Abandoning gun rights voters, standing with Stein and Cooper, and seeing your remaining Republican colleagues summarily thrown out of office?
Show some leadership, lead the caucus you still have at your disposal, and complete the override of SB50.
FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!

I actually like this idea, a Democrat who votes for Constitutional Carry is always better than a Republican who votes against Constitutional Carry.

🚨 BREAKING: Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) walks out onto the Senate floor and declares he is prepared to stay in DC every day, Christmas Day, Christmas Eve, Thanksgiving, to PASS NOMINEES and pass a RECONCILIATION package that only needs 50+1 votes
"I don't concede. unlike some of my colleagues, that attempting reconciliation would be a waste of time!"
HE'S RIGHT.
Don't just do nominees but a MAJOR reconciliation package
BE BOLD, LEADER THUNE! You got nothing to lose now!
He ran on targeting a few, lol. He'll be balls to the wall after them come January, too.

【衝撃】イーロン・マスクの、GPU10万基を動かす巨大AI施設を常識外れのスピードで立ち上げた話がヤバすぎるww
記者「AI施設って完成まで何年かかるん?」
イーロン「業者には18〜24ヶ月と言われたよ」
記者「ほな2年待ちですやん」
イーロン「半年で作ることにした」
記者「は?ww」
イーロン「待っていたら競争に負けるからね」
記者「場所はどうしたん?」
イーロン「古い家電工場を使った」
記者「電力は足りたん?」
イーロン「15メガワットしかなかった」
記者「必要なのは?」
イーロン「150メガワットだ」
記者「10倍足りへんやんww」
イーロン「だから発電機を借りた」
記者「それで解決?」
イーロン「今度は冷却設備が足りなかった」
記者「問題だらけですやんww」
イーロン「バッテリーも追加したよ」
記者「もう業者に任せましょうよ」
イーロン「私も現場で寝泊まりして配線した」
記者「世界的大富豪がケーブル配線!?」
イーロン「完成させることが重要だからね」
記者「そこまでするんか……」
これ経営者としてかなり刺さる。
普通なら「電力が足りない」「設備がない」「納期が無理」で計画を延期する。
でもマスクは足りないものを一つずつ調達して解決した。
できない理由を探す人とできる方法を探す人。
この差は大きい。
もちろん無理な納期を押し付ければいいわけではない。
ただ業界の常識が本当に超えられない限界なのかは疑ってみる価値がある。
皆さんは、2年かかると言われた仕事を半年でやれと言われたらどうしますか?

일곱번째 생존법.
위기가 오면 금, 달러, 귀금속을 챙기라고 말합니다. 하지만 보스니아 내전, 베네수엘라 국가 부도, 우크라이나 사태를 직접 겪은 생존자들의 증언은 정반대입니다.
전력망과 금융 시스템이 멈춘 순간, 종이돈은 불쏘시개일 뿐이고, 금괴는 당신과 가족을 약탈 1순위 표적으로 만드는 가장 위험한 금속입니다.
도시 인프라가 멈추고 마트 선반이 털린 지 72시간이 지나면, 세상은 오직 '물물교환(Barter)'으로만 돌아갑니다. 그 지하 경제에서 목숨을 지키며 거래하는 5가지 철칙입니다.
1. 금괴를 들고 나가는 순간, 당신은 걸어 다니는 ATM입니다.
100g짜리 금괴를 들고 나가서 쌀 1kg이나 통조림 2개를 살 수 있을까요? 상대방은 "거스름돈이 없으니 금괴 전부를 달라"고 강요하거나, 거래하는 척 뒤를 밟아 당신의 은신처 전체를 털어버립니다. 재난 초기 몇 달 동안 금은 쪼갤 수도 없고, 당장 먹을 수도 없는 쓸모없는 쇳덩이에 불과합니다. (귀금속은 치안과 사회가 어느 정도 재건되는 먼 훗날에나 통합니다.)
2. 1등 지하 화폐는 '라이터(Lighter)'입니다.
불을 피울 수 없는 생존자는 영하의 추위와 오염된 물 앞에서 며칠을 버티지 못합니다. 편의점에서 파는 흔한 일회용 라이터 하나는 약 1,000번에서 1,500번의 불을 피울 수 있는 '압축된 생명'입니다. 부피가 극도로 작고, 주머니에 여러 개가 들어가며, 누구나 가치를 직관적으로 알기 때문에 잔돈을 거슬러주거나 기본 화폐 단위로 쓰기에 완벽합니다.
3. 2등 화폐: 소금, 설탕, 그리고 '기호품'의 폭발적 위력.
인간은 소금 없이는 전해질 쇼크로 탈진해 쓰러집니다. 소금과 설탕은 음식을 보존하고 염장하는 데 없어서는 안 될 핵심 자산입니다.
그리고 극도의 공포와 스트레스에 짓눌린 사람들에게 인스턴트 커피(믹스커피), 담배, 미니 양주(소형 보드카/위스키)는 총알보다 더 강력한 협상 카드가 됩니다. 담배 몇 개비나 커피 몇 포로 결정적인 생존 정보를 사거나 검문소를 통과할 수 있습니다.
4. 3등 화폐: 항생제 연고와 소염진통제, 표준 규격 배터리.
분쟁·재난 지역의 가장 흔한 사망 원인은 총상이 아니라, 녹슨 못이나 깨진 유리에 긁힌 작은 상처의 패혈증입니다. 후시딘, 마데카솔 같은 항생제 연고 1개, 타이레놀이나 이부프로펜 1통은 금 한 돈보다 더 귀하게 대접받습니다. 여기에 라디오와 랜턴을 켤 수 있는 표준 AA, AAA 건전지는 마트가 문을 닫는 즉시 현금처럼 통용됩니다.
5. 물물교환 시 목숨을 건지는 OPSEC(보안) 3대 수칙.
물건을 바꾸러 나갈 때 지키지 않으면 반드시 당하는 수칙입니다:
- 절대 내 은신처 근처에서 거래하지 마라: 거래 장소는 집에서 최소 1km 이상 떨어진 시야가 확보된 중립 지대여야 합니다.
- 전 재산을 보여주지 마라: "집에 더 많다"는 말은 자살행위입니다. 오늘 바꿀 물건 딱 1~2개만 주머니에 넣고, "나도 이게 가진 것의 전부다"라는 태도를 끝까지 유지해야 합니다.
- 반드시 2인 1조로 움직여라: 1명이 거래하는 동안, 1명은 20~30m 밖 엄폐물 뒤에서 사각지대를 감시하고 퇴로를 지켜야 합니다. 혼자 나간 거래는 90% 약탈로 끝납니다.
결론:
위기가 닥쳤을 때 금고 속 골드바나 수표를 믿지 마세요.
주머니 속 라이터 10개, 소금 1kg, 타이레놀 몇 통, AA 배터리 20알이
어떤 귀금속보다 당신과 가족의 숨을 더 길게 이어줍니다.

BREAKING: The Constitutionality Index has now scored every law in the history of the United States. 48,000 laws dating back to 1789.
So far as I'm aware, I'm the first one to ever attempt such a thing.
And we've now ranked every president based on the percentage of laws they enacted were constitutional. The results largely track the overall historical trend: As we move from the founding to the modern era, the percentage of unconstitutional legislation increases.
In fact, 1937 is the tipping point. Pre-FDR's New Deal, every president — Federalist, Whig, Republican, Democrat — scores 98 to 100%. After the New Deal, the average percentage of constitutional laws (by page) drops to 31 percent.
As a result, presidents of the last few decades find themselves at the bottom of the rankings. @JoeBiden is officially the least constitutional president, although Trump isn't far behind. Only Thomas Jefferson scored a perfect 100 percent.
I've also scored congresses, & @SpeakerJohnson's current Congress is, from the perspective of the Constitution, the worst Congress in American history. Constitutional legislation stands at 56.3 by total count, & just 4.3% by total legislative pages.
Another important finding: The largest laws in American history are, every one of them, unconstitutional.
Check it out & let me know what you think. (Links below)

GRNC is finally out with a letter to @ncspeakerhall demanding the override vote he promised us back on April 21st
It even reads like something I might have written, which of course is not possible since they summarily excommunicated me from the organization last week.
I'll remind both the Speaker and GRNC the votes were there a few weeks ago to succeed on the override if the Speaker had called the override vote to the floor
Will this upcoming vote be the final failure of a disappointing, poorly led, undisciplined near supermajority this year, or will the Speaker get it done?
Gun rights voters across the state await the result. Let us all agree that two years in the political wilderness will be enough for the ill-advised decision to delay the vote. – at Tobaccoville, NC

It would be a time-honored tradition for N.C. Republicans to use the upcoming lame-duck session to cram through a few more hard-edged bills.
That would be a bad idea. The road back begins with regaining trust, and power grabs just erode it. #ncpol

Imagine if @NCGOP @ncspeakerhall hadn’t spit in Gun owners faces over the past year and a half and fixed this and voted to override the SB50 veto.
Hey NC folks — as of Oct 9 ATF stopped enforcing NFA registration for suppressors/SBRs/SBSs/AOWs. Tax $0. 4473+NICS still apply.
NC still requires registration of those NFA items. Not voluntary to skip just yet — business as usual here.
