Really not a smart man

Some more on Rep. Jacob’s stupidity at Buffalo Rising:

“… Congressman Chris Jacobs shocked the political world last week with his announcement of support for proposals by Governor Kathy Hochul and others to restrict some gun purchases in the state by the age of the buyer, plus other reforms. Jacobs’ story has received national attention … Jacobs’ announcement of his change of heart about the issue (he ran with NRA support in 2020) has set his party into chaos. After settling on Jacobs as their candidate in the new 23rd congressional districtthe party is now in a frantic search for a candidate to oppose Jacobs in the August 23rd primary …”

All he had to do was be quiet and let gun control advocates shoot themselves in the foot like they usually do. Instead, he tried for some cheap political gain and it backfired on him.

Because he’s not a Democrat

Mayors across the state are uniting to stop “gun violence”:

If these Mayors are really interested in stopping “gun violence” then anyone should be welcome at their event, right?

CNYCentral reports:

“Tuesday morning, a self-proclaimed “Statewide Press Conference” focused on Gun Violence Awareness Month will stream on various platforms. However, a spokesperson for Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh confirms for CNYCentral.com that Mayor Walsh was never invited to this event, nor was he made aware it was going to take place … All the Mayors listed as attending this press conference are registered Democrats. Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh is a registered Independent and is now serving in his second and final term in office …”

This should serve as yet another example of why Republicans should never get involved with (mostly) Democrat promoted gun control schemes.

Support Suozzi in the primary

Registered Democrats should vote for Tom Suozzi in the gubernatorial primary because he’s the only one who can damage Governor Karen.

Hochul’s gun control package

I expected the drop last Friday, but here it is, “Governor Hochul, Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins and Speaker Heastie Announce Introduction of Comprehensive Package of Legislation to Strengthen New York’s Gun Laws.

New bill requiring license to possess semi-auto rifles

New bill A-10503/S-9458, Relates to the purchase or taking possession of a semiautomatic rifle; requires a license to purchase or take possession of a semiautomatic rifle; establishes the crimes of criminal purchase of a semiautomatic rifle and criminal sale of a semiautomatic rifle; requires recertification of licenses to purchase or take possession of a semiautomatic rifle every five years, introduced to Assembly and Senate Codes.

Suozzi slams Hochul for past NRA endorsement

I did a successful GOTV against Suozzi back in ’13 when he tried running for re-election as Nassau Co. Executive. He tried running hard on gun control and it didn’t help. This ad is lame. It might help a little in the primary, but not much.

Primary challenger for Jacobs

As follow-up to my previous post, the Olean Times Herald reports, “Businessman from Fredonia to challenge Jacobs in GOP primary“:

Marc Cenedella, a businessman from Fredonia who plans to run against Rep. Chris Jacobs in the 23rd Congressional District Republican primary, once worked to help elect former Rep. Stan Lundine, a Democrat. “I’ve been passionate about politics my entire life,” Cenedella told the Times Herald. “Once I got an education, I became a Republican.” … A Ronald Reagan Republican currently based in New York, Cenedella founded TheLadders.com, a national jobs website, 19 years ago … In wake of the racist massacre that killed 10 people in Buffalo and the Texas school shooting that killed 19 children and two teachers, what kind of gun law reforms would Cenedella support? “Tens of millions of Americans legally and safely own guns. Any attempt to restrict Americans’ Second Amendment rights is ill considered and ineffective.” What about reinstituting the federal assault weapons ban, enhanced background checks and red flag laws to keep guns from those who should not have them? “Most efforts are misguided and ill-conceived,” he replied …”

Support this guy in the primary to get rid of Jacobs.

Congressman Jacobs is not a smart man
