## Resource

In This Hour: -- Major news from the U.S. Department of Justice as it files briefs supporting AR-15 rifles and ads a gun rights attorney to head the Second Amendment Section in the Civil Rights Division. Hannah Hill from the National Association For Gun Rights explains how that happened. -- President Trump issued pardons to five people who had been jailed for supposed gun crimes, but who really were victims of the Biden-era ATF, which set out to shut down gun stores and make examples of anyone it could fake evidence on. Lee Williams, known as The Gun Writer, spent years exposing the corruption and reveals the rot at ATF, and the moves to seek presidential pardons. -- New study by Georgetown University professor documents that Americans own 40 million AR-15 rifles and that far more than previously thought have defended themselves with guns.
