As most people know by now, President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, was convicted of federal gun crimes and his father gave the nation his word he would not pardon him. As is common with politicians, he changed his mind and issued a sweeping pardon for him. Read about what this covers and whether or not the average gun owner might be able to benefit from it.

Illinois, one of the most anti-gun, anti-2A states in the nation, has just seen a reprieve from an unconstitutional law enacted two years ago. Federal Judge Stephen McGlynn has permanently blocked the “assault weapons” ban portion of the Protect Illinois Communities Act (PICA). The state has already filed an appeal, and only time will tell whether the injunction will stand or be overturned.

Joe LoPorto, Director of Government Affairs at the Civil Liberties Policy Research Center of New Jersey, explains the significance of the President-Elect’s choice for U.S. Attorney General. For Second Amendment supporters, a nominee with a history of backing “red flag laws” raises serious concerns. Joe breaks down the potential impact and makes his case for appointment to a pivotal government role.

Many people, especially those on the political extremes, often prioritize certain rights over others. This view is flawed, as our Constitutional guarantees carry equal weight. Valuing one right above another undermines the integrity of the freedoms that form the foundation of our liberty.

Censorship of free speech, especially right-leaning viewpoints, by major social media platforms has never been more blatant than during the 2024 election season. Facebook, in particular, has been auto-moderating and silencing posts or comments that support conservative causes or political candidates. President Trump has made strong promises to eliminate this behavior and address viewpoint discrimination and censorship. The question remains: will he follow through once he takes office?

With Donald Trump on his way to the White House as President-Elect, along with a Republican-controlled Senate and a likely GOP-controlled House once the vote counts are finalized, Joe LoPorto offers a realistic look into what Trump’s final term in office could mean for gun owners across the nation and here in New Jersey. He also shares insight into the critical races we need to watch as the midterms draw closer.

2024 SAF Journalist of the Year John Petrolino receives an unexpected journalism lesson from Donna StClair, a failed Virginia State Senate candidate and gun control advocate posing as a gun rights supporter. Discover how she ‘educated’ him and learn about the lawsuit where she’s named as a defendant.

New Jersey’s gun laws are deeply rooted in racism and inequality. Lawmakers, the Attorney General, and the Governor continue to uphold these unconstitutional, racially biased policies without any sense of shame. The so-called “righteousness” and virtue signaling vanish the moment they’re confronted. In fact, it feels as though we don’t even exist when we hold them accountable. It’s time for legislators to take this issue seriously and act. After all, don’t we care about “those people”?

Across the nation, churches have too often been the site of mass shootings. In some cases, armed church security and parishioners have managed to stop these horrific attackers, though tragically, lives are often still lost. Read about a News2A co-founder who joined his church security team, embarking on a weekend of tactical and spiritual training, accompanied by a look into the history behind it.

In times of hardship and suffering, the absence of a competent or willing government often reveals the best in Americans. Though forces may be working to divide us, we are far more united than the ruling class would have us believe. There may still be hope for us yet.

Some New Jersey legislators have introduced several new anti-gun bills for the 2024-2025 session. While the full text of these bills is not yet available, their summaries suggest they are poised to tighten the noose around the necks of law-abiding gun owners in the state.
