Citigroup Prepared To Back Off On Anti-Second Amendment Stance
Tom Knighton / BEARING ARMS

It wasn’t all that long ago when I wrote story after story of firearm-related businesses finding themselves cut off from services in the financial sector. It was frustrating because I’m a free-market kind of guy and I didn’t really see what could be done to stop it, especially since the then governor of New York was pushing them to do just that.

Attorneys for former President Donald Trump asked the court on Thursday to delay the National Archives from handing key documents over to the committee, which was supposed to receive them tomorrow. This ruling comes after U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan on Tuesday ruled against Trump's request to block the release of documents. 

A panel composed of two judges appointed by former President Barack Obama and one by President Joe Biden issued an order granting the request, noting that "the motion for an expedited briefing schedule, which the court construes as a motion to expedite consideration of the appeal of the district court's order denying the motion for a preliminary junction, be granted."
