What was expected to be a 1.5-2 hour standard procedure ended up being a five hour surgery. The surgeon found an unexpected tumor hidden behind other organs. While it was cancerous, it is at an early stage with an excellent long term prognosis. The major downside is that she will need a second surgery to complete the original procedure. Please keep Wendy in your prayers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The news this weeks seems to be coming faster than I can keep up with so I&#8217;ll just go with a roundup with links to more indepth coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The New York Attorney General&#8217;s Office <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nrawatch.org\/filing\/nra-trial-day-18-the-nyag-rests-its-case\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rested its case against the NRA and the individual defendants<\/a><\/strong> on Monday. Their final witness was Eric Hines who is a forensic accountant who found the NRA had a number of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nrawatch.org\/filing\/nra-trial-day-17-nyags-last-witness-sums-it-up-consistent-control-violations-at-the-nra\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/nrawatch.org\/filing\/nra-trial-day-17-nyags-last-witness-sums-it-up-consistent-control-violations-at-the-nra\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">internal control failures<\/a><\/strong>. The attorneys for the NRA and the individual defendants then asked for a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/iapps.courts.state.ny.us\/nyscef\/ViewDocument?docIndex=a7SGxq_PLUS_8iBiROdPwZK4\/Hg==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">directed verdict<\/a><\/strong> saying the state had not proved its case and that certain laws do not pertain to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Reload has <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thereload.com\/judge-considers-nra-request-to-dismiss-most-charges-in-corruption-case\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/thereload.com\/judge-considers-nra-request-to-dismiss-most-charges-in-corruption-case\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a good analysis<\/a><\/strong> of this argument by Joseph Brucker. The crux of the NRA&#8217;s argument is as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The defendants\u2019 arguments centered largely on the applicability of New York\u2019s Estates Powers and Trusts Law (EPTL) to nonprofit corporations and their executives. The statute contains a provision that subjects any nonprofit corporation organized for \u201ccharitable purposes\u201d to certain registration and reporting requirements. However, \u201ccharitable purposes\u201d are defined using language that echoes the IRS\u2019s federal 501(c)(3) classification. The NRA, a 501(c)(4), admitted that the law governs some of its funds and activities. But it argued that the statute\u2019s provisions relating to the \u201cadministration\u201d of charitable property should only apply to its restricted charitable donations, not to general funds used for noncharitable activities such as lobbying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The individual defendants, meanwhile, say the statute does not apply to them at all: an accountant or lawyer who accepts a position at a New York nonprofit, they argue, does not sign up for the same responsibilities as the \u201ctrustee\u201d of a charitable foundation or bequest. The \u201ctrustee\u201d designation set off a round of frenzied discussion in the courtroom&nbsp;on Monday.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>If Judge Cohen accepts this interpretation, it could prove problematic for the state to force reform on the NRA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Erik Uebelacker has been following the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.courthousenews.com\/author\/erik-uebelacker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">case for Courthouse News Service<\/a><\/strong>. He has a good synopsis of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.courthousenews.com\/nra-board-member-answers-for-scathing-facebook-posts-chiding-groups-leadership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">testimony of former NRA 1st VP Willes Lee<\/a><\/strong> who had gone<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/onlygunsandmoney.com\/2023\/05\/21\/willes-and-the-nra-keep-getting-better.html\"> nuclear<\/a><\/strong> on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. What I found most interesting was Lee&#8217;s response as to why he had written those posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Lee was far more reserved in court than he was on Facebook. During his testimony, he was hesitant to critique the NRA at all, despite his willingness to do so frequently online last year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI don&#8217;t know why I was posting those now,\u201d he said Wednesday. \u201cBut I must have felt that way.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He didn\u2019t deny the validity of the content in any of the posts, however.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know why I was posting those now&#8221;? Jeez! Talk about wimping out when put on the stand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two best ways to follow the NRA trial day by day are to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nrawatch.org\/case\/new-york-ag-investigation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">follow NRA Watch<\/a><\/strong> and to follow the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Uebey?s=20\">tweets of  Uebelacker<\/a><\/strong>. I hate to admit our enemies have done an excellent job in covering the testimony in the case in an above board and fair way. NRA Watch is a project of Bloomberg&#8217;s Everytown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving on in the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2024\/02\/08\/hawaii-court-gives-middle-finger-to-scotus-claims-spirit-of-aloha-overrides-constitution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spirit of Aloha<\/a><\/strong>, the Supreme Court of Hawaii doesn&#8217;t like Heller, McDonald, or Bruen nor do they think it applies in Hawaii. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.courts.state.hi.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/SCAP-22-0000561.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">court said<\/a>:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe spirit of Aloha clashes with a federally-mandated lifestyle that lets citizens walk around with deadly weapons during day-to-day activities,\u201d the court wrote. \u201cThe history of the Hawaiian Islands does not include a society where armed people move about the community to possibly combat the deadly aims of others.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/wireStory\/hawaii-ruling-cites-wire-rebuking-us-supreme-court-107077452\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christopher Wilson had legally purchased his firearm in Florida back in 2013.<\/a><\/strong> He had been charged with possessing an unregistered firearm. His first challenge under the Second Amendment was denied but his second challenge after the Bruen decision was successful. A Hawaii district court had dismissed the charges based upon Bruen but the state appealed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If ever a case cried out for the grant of a writ of certiorari it is this one. I can&#8217;t see how the SCOTUS can ignore such an in-your-face challenge to the supremacy of national law. As <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/hawaii-supreme-court-quotes-the-wire-ruling-gun-rights\/?fbclid=IwAR0am36hKBgf-kjZpJBafbJp6wErC-nVueu53ECsabepVsfP9nD6UGOEsNs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gun rights attorney Alan Beck<\/a><\/strong> notes, &#8220;The use of pop culture references to attempt to rebuke the Supreme Court&#8217;s detailed historical analysis is evidence this is not a well-reasoned opinion.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other 2A news, a group of Second Amendment organizations including the Second Amendment Foundation, CCRKBA, and theFirearms Policy Coalition are <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/saf.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Bianchi-Petition.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">asking the US Supreme Court to grant certiorari in <em>Bianchi v. Brown<\/em><\/a><\/strong>. The SCOTUS had vacated and remanded the case then known as <em>Bianchi v Frosh back<\/em> to the 4th Circuit for a ruling consistent with <em>Bruen<\/em>. Since then, the case was argued before a 3-judge 4th Circuit panel and its has been over a year since the argument without a decision. For some reason, the 4th Circuit has now decided to hear the case <em>en banc<\/em>. The case is a challenge to Maryland&#8217;s ban on so-called &#8220;assault weapons&#8221; (sic).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adam Kraut, SAF Executive Director, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/saf.org\/saf-ccrkba-ask-scotus-to-review-maryland-semi-auto-ban\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">notes in their release:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe Fourth Circuit\u2019s decision to hear this case\u00a0<em>en banc<\/em>, over a year after it was argued before a panel and with no published opinion, seems to imply the court desired to take this case from a panel with which it disagreed,\u201d noted SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut. \u201cThe unconstitutionality of Maryland\u2019s Assault Weapons Ban has been apparent since it was passed into law, as\u00a0<em>Heller<\/em>\u00a0already provided the proper analysis, which the Fourth Circuit previously ignored to shield the law from a swift death. Intervention from the Supreme Court is necessary to restore order and force the lower courts to properly address this issue in a timely manner, as each day the Plaintiffs rights are being infringed upon.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, I would like to note that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncsbe.gov\/voting\/vote-early-person\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Early, One-Stop Voting<\/a><\/strong> begins for the North Carolina March Primary next Thursday, February 15th.
