The National Rifle Association, a second amendment advocacy group, announced over Twitter on Monday that the Democrats are planning on introducing “extreme gun control legislation” next week.
?BREAKING: Sources in DC report that Congress will be voting on Biden’s extreme gun control legislation as early as next week.
Possible that they will bypass committee process.
Stay tuned, NRA members.

The NRA did not specify which legislation they were referring to, or what it entails. The tweet may be referring to an iteration of the Bipartisan Background Checks Act, which some Democrats have been pushing in recent days.
The bill “prohibits a firearm transfer between private parties unless a licensed gun dealer, manufacturer, or importer first takes possession of the firearm to conduct a background check” with some exceptions.
The act was passed by the House of Representatives in 2019 but failed to make any headway in the Republican-controlled Senate. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT), however, has promised to introduce similar legislation.
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
