Summary: A horrific mass murder was committed by a barbarian on Sunday at a Texas Baptist Church. The Air Force admitted that it had failed to enter the mass murderer’s domestic violence conviction into the NICS database that could have blocked him from buying the rifle he used to kill 26 people. Texas Governor Greg Abbott calls in to explain that the Air Force error weakens the gun control agrument. The laws to prevent the mass murderer from legally purchasing a gun were already on the books but weren’t complied with. If the laws had been complied with, it probably would have prevented the massacre. But someone who is willing to break the law to kill someone is also likely to be willing to obtain a gun illegally. If there were stricter gun laws this killer would have killed more people. The hero, former NRA instructor and plumber, Stephen Willeford, would not have been able to shoot back at him with his rifle. Later, Paul Ryan is the new class warfare warrior. Republicans are now resorting to Democratic arguments by sounding like Bernie Sanders and Nancy Pelosi. They are adding a new 45.6% tax rate, which is embracing higher tax rates to redistribute to those with lower incomes. Republicans should just slash tax rates across the board. Finally, President Trump’s administration is not as conservative as Ronald Reagan’s but it has been conservative so far. Trump is rolling back Obama regulations, nominating conservatives to the judiciary and resetting foreign policy. Trump is not promoting a nationalist populist agenda but a conservative agenda. He has picked up the baton of the Tea Party movement.
