Pam Bondi’s Dismissal: A Victory for Second Amendment Advocates

In a celebratory video on The VSO Gun Channel, host Colion Noir rejoices over the firing of former Attorney General Pam Bondi, labeling her ‘the single worst pick that Donald Trump has appointed in either of his terms.’ He criticizes her as a ‘big government statist’ who undermined pro-gun efforts, citing her past statements on assault rifles and ATF frame-and-receiver rules. Noir plays clips of Bondi advocating for gun seizures, declaring, ‘I know, I know, I know. I’ve used those clips like a thousand times in the last year and I’m not sorry for it because they’re uh a perfect representation of her ideology.’

Noir acknowledges concerns about her replacement but expresses cautious optimism, noting Todd Blanche will serve as acting AG. He dismisses fears of a worse successor, comparing Bondi unfavorably to Merrick Garland and Steve Dettelbach, and quips, ‘Anybody who receives the sympathy of the legacy press is not good for America.’

Secretary Hegseth’s Memo Empowers Military Self-Defense

The video’s second highlight is a new Department of Defense policy under Secretary Pete Hegseth, allowing service members to carry personal firearms on bases. Noir praises the shift from ‘soft targets,’ referencing incidents like the Fort Hood shooting where disarmed personnel were vulnerable. Hegseth’s memo states: ‘The memo I’m signing today directs installation commanders to allow requests for personal protection to carry a privately-owned firearm with the presumption that it is necessary for personal protection.’

Noir lauds Hegseth’s rhetoric, quoting, ‘Our great republic was founded on a simple yet bold idea. Our rights as citizens are not granted to us by government, but instead by God… The Second Amendment to our Constitution enshrines the right of all citizens to carry weapons.’ He calls it ‘100% sound’ justification, emphasizing that ‘military personnel on a base don’t have access to anything to defend themselves is absolutely ludicrous.’ The host wraps up by declaring it a ‘good day for the Second Amendment,’ amid sponsor shoutouts to Modern Gun School.
