This video provides a critical update on the legal fight against the ATF's pistol brace rule. It highlights that while the rule itself has been vacated nationwide, the DOJ continues to enforce the same underlying legal theory that brace pistols are Short Barreled Rifles (SBRs) under the NFA.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of this injunction to protect gun owners from selective enforcement based on statutory interpretation alone.

This video details a significant legal victory for firearms owners, with Judge O'Connor ruling against the ATF's classification of Forced Reset Triggers (FRTs) as machine guns. Citing the Supreme Court's 6-3 decision in the Cargill case, the ruling emphasizes that a trigger's single function does not equate to a single pull, thus FRTs do not meet the NFA's definition of a machine gun. The ATF has been ordered to return all confiscated FRTs and components within 30 days, though an appeal is anticipated.

The DOJ has dropped its appeal in the Mock case, allowing a nationwide vacatur of the ATF's pistol brace rule to stand for now.

This ruling has significant implications for state-level attempts to counter federal firearm regulations.

This video details a critical U.S. Supreme Court emergency election order concerning Pennsylvania's handling of provisional ballots. The Supreme Court denied an emergency request to stay a Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling that mandated the counting of provisional ballots for voters whose mail-in ballots were deemed invalid. The RNC argued this usurped the state legislature's role and constituted impermissible 'ballot curing.' Justice Alito's opinion noted the limited scope of the lower court's judgment.
