Thursday AAR Daily Defense was an encore due to weather in the Dallas area at the Network Operations Center. We do not post podcasts of repeat episodes. Today Mark and Paul Markel discuss SCOTUS conference regarding the hearing to accept the "assault weapons" ban MD case, national CCW reciprocity bills filed in both the House and Senate this week, crime and looting in CA due to mass evacuations and fire hazards, and the response the thieves should face. Hint: it starts with gunfire to the face...or chest, take your pick.

Today on Armed American Radio Mark talks with journalist Dave Workman about record gun sales in 2024, the SCOTUS adding the MD assault weapons ban case to their conference THIS Friday, and state gun control efforts ramping up in blue state legislatures across the country in anticipation of the incoming gun friendly Trump administration

Today on AAR Daily Defense, Mark and Lee Williams discuss the latest Investigative Journalism work from Lee regarding the continued abuse of law-abiding gun owners by the thugs at the ATF. As this rogue organization prepares (hopefully) to be reigned in by the Trump administration, until they do, it appears they will continue to abuse their authority by targeting law-abiding gun owners right up until the day Trump and his new DOJ team are sworn in. It can't happen fast enough.

Mark and Andy Hooser discuss everything from Pit Bulls and Shih Tzu's to ElonMusk and Tulsi Gabbard. A fun Monday broadcast to kick off the first full week of 2025. Does Elon Musk really get it when it comes to the right to bear arms? The consensus is yes. Musk would be unable at this point to walk back his firm and publicly made statements in support of the right to bear arms and freedom of speech, much like Tulsi Gabbard. With Dementia Joe Biden signing a flurry of EO's designed to thwart the incoming Trump administration efforts, would he go so far as to move against the 2A with some sort of additional EO before his departure, also?

Mark and the crew discuss everything from the NOLA bombing/shooting to crazy new anti-gun statutes taking effect in Blue states across the country on January 1. More proof the anti-gun establishment isn't going anywhere. The importance of continuing the fight against them to put em down for good by winning the ongoing battle against their un-American agenda.

Stephen Gutowski founder of the Reload and CNN contributor discusses the news of the year and predicts 2025. What happens at ATF with Director Dettlebach out on the 18th this month. Will Trump replace a new ATF Director quickly? Will FBI Director and Pam Bondi fix the ATF problems immediately? Will the ATF reign itself in and stop hassling law-abiding dealers and citizens? John Lott brings information regarding the importance of real data and truthful numbers and studies to the FBI and ATF under Trump administration.

Alan Gottlieb rejoins the show after a three week hiatus! Alan catches us up on the biggest 2A stories of 2024, upcoming top stories of 2025 including SCOTUS makeup, upcoming court cases that will move our 2A rights and massive SAF court victories over the past year. Amanda Hardin, founder of Lipstick Tactical in Denver reminds us of the anti-gunners tactics moving the gun control agenda back to the states as Trump prepares to take charge of the federal government.

Today on AAR Daily Defense, Mark speaks to Student of the Gun's Paul Markel. Topics include the NOLA terror attack, Vegas attack, ATF Dir. Steve Dettlebach pending resignation effective two days before trump inauguration, and why oh why have the professional gun control lobby groups remained eerily quiet in the face of everything? #GunRightsPodcast #2A #2ndAmendment #GunRights #GunRightsRadio

Mark is joined by long time AAR contributor David Codrea founder of War on Guns. Topics of discussion include the terror attack on New Orleans on New Years day, The Office of Gun Violence Prevention and the Gun Owners for Trump during the campaign. What can be done to stop attacks like the two over the holiday including the Trump Tower explosion, why anti-gun groups did not immediately seize on the fact the NOLA terrorist used an AR style rifle and what their plans are going forward as they face a hostile pro-gun administration for the next 4 years.

Mark and Andy discuss how to finally end the Democrats narrative on gun control once and for all. It's not hard to do and can be accomplished by using the Democrats and media's favorite techniques against them immediately. Should the office of gun violence prevention be used against the democrats? Mark makes the case.

Today on AAR we wrap up the year regarding our 2A 2nd Amendment and gun rights as we move into the new year and a new Trump administration. How do we advance out gun rights under a second Trump administration? Do gun rights advance or are we going to be complacent? How do we keep our foot on the gas and advance our 2A rights instead of sitting on our ass? What bills move if any?

Today on Armed American Radio Daily Defense guest Andy Hooser and Mark discuss naughty elves...don't ask, just listen. The NYC Subway illegal alien setting woman on fire, and Biden commutes sentences of every federal death row inmate with three exceptions. Why? How? What can be done about all of it after January 20th when Donald Trump finally takes office after Americans have suffered through 4 years of Biden hell on Earth. Oh, and MERRY Christmas!

Today on Armed American Radio hour two, Mark talks with Parkland father Ryan Petty and Dr. John R Lott from Crime Research Center about claims a journalist from WI made about mass shooting studies and armed defense of schools. The journalist made reference to Mark's interview last week with Ryan Petty and claimed there had been no data or studies that prove armed schools deter attacks. Dr. John Lott answered the claims on today's AAR along with Ryan discussing the studies and empirical evidence that says otherwise. Second Amendment, gun rights radio, gun rights podcast

Today on Armed American Radio Mark chats with legendary talk radio host Marc Cox from 97.1 FM in St Louis and AWR Hawkins from Breibart News. Topics include the unfolding story of the Madison WI school shooter and students calls for assault weapons bans even though the killer used a handgun, and the following gun control push from various democrats, Joe Manchin makes an about face and attacks the Democrat Party as being out of touch and sold out to the Progressive left. Why did he wait so long and why not disclose his disdain 4 years ago, or longer? Phoenix homeowner shoots at multiple home invaders, wounding one. CNN tries to shame gun owners who purchase hunting rifle for their kids and much more! Second Amendment, gun rights radio, gun rights podcast

Mark and Paul Markel-Student of the Gun continue the WI school shooting and the BATF fights in court to confiscate the firearms of the airport Executive in Little rock that Rock they murdered.

Wednesday AAR show was an encore so no show posted to podcast yesterday. Today on Armed American Radio Mark and Parkland Father Ryan Petty talk Madison Christian School shooter, her motives, her manifesto, social media and her guns. Why she did it, what is known about her, where she got her guns, of which she apparently had two handguns on her person and the role her parents played in her terrible upbringing. Mental health clearly an issues as it usually is in these cases and yet again, plenty of warning signs after the fact.

Mark and guest Andy Hooser dissect the Madison school shooting and expose the current failed Biden administration and Whie House response for more tired calls for gun control that would have done NOTHING to stop the 15 year old killer. The young murderer was already 100% gun controlled at her age and no calls for phony "assault weapons" bans (the killer used a handgun), magazine bans and background checks and red flag laws would have prevented the shooter from committing the crime. But that doesn't stop Democrats.
