Feminist PANICS After Dana Loesch Suggests Women Who Carry Guns Are Harder To Rape | Daily Wire

Feminist PANICS After Dana Loesch Suggests Women Who Carry Guns Are Harder To Rape | Daily Wire:
"Feminist author and blogger Jessica Valenti was disappointed to learn, Wednesday night, that some women find arming themselves a useful way of protecting themselves against sexual predators.

Devin Nunes expands dossier probe to find out what Obama knew - Washington Times:

"The dossier, funded by Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic Party and written by British ex-spy Christopher Steele, was circulated by paymaster Fusion GPS during the 2016 campaign.

Mr. Steele, relying on Kremlin sources, made a series of felony charges plus several salacious claims against Mr. Trump and his aides. None to date have been confirmed publicly.

The letter’s recipients are redacted. But it is assumed they are going to be such leading Obama administrations officials as CIA Director John Brennan and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper."

What Percentage Of Mass Shootings Happen In 'Gun Free Zones'? The Number Is Stunning. | Daily Wire:

"After dozens of warning signs and alerts from concerned citizens went unnoticed, a shooter walked into a South Florida high school and murdered 17 people. In the wake of the tragic mass shooting, guns and "gun free zones" have become hot-button issues.

The Left has since turned-up the volume on calls for a crackdown on Secondment Amendment rights, quickly exploiting teens who attend the targeted school to makes the case for them. They have also slammed the suggestion that schools should have armed security, or perhaps well-trained, voluntarily armed teachers."
