My not-so-secret media takeover plot takes its next step later today as I guest host Dave Congalton's radio show for two hours from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on KVEC 920 AM. From 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., we'll talk to Craig DeLuz of the Firearms Policy Coalition about California gun laws, lawsuits against those […]
A couple of weeks ago I volunteered to go on local radio host Dave Congalton's show in the wake of the shootings in Alexandria, Va., and San Francisco, defending the 2nd Amendment from the inevitable calls for more (ineffectual) gun control. You can listen to my appearance here, but William Moser wasn't happy with my […]

A couple weeks back, I took Politifraud's California incarnation to task for their failure to correct Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom's dishonest mischaracterization of one of their fact checks. I […]
In case you missed it, my weekend column in the San Luis Obispo Tribune is available here.
