The U.S. background check system prevented over 300,000 gun sales in 2020, a record high, the Associated Press reported Tuesday.
Background checks blocked almost double the number of sales in 2020 compared to the year before, with 42% of rejections due to felony convictions, according to FBI data obtained by the AP. The data also shows that the rate of barred would-be gun owners increased from 0.6% to 0.8% over the past two years.
The rate increase could be because a number of people buying guns for the first time did not realize they were unable to purchase a gun, Adam Winkler, a UCLA Law professor specializing in gun policy, told the AP. “Some may have a felony conviction on their record and not think about it,” he said.

Senate Republicans stopped Democrats’ sweeping voting rights bill from advancing on the Senate floor Tuesday, unanimously voting against beginning its debate and therefore essentially killing it.
Though every Democrat voted to advance the bill, Republicans labeled it as nothing more than a power grab, with GOP leadership vowing to stop it. The bill received 50 votes in favor, but needed 60 to overcome a legislative filibuster.
“There is a rot at the center of the modern Republican party,” said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. “It has poisoned our democracy, eroded faith in our elections, which is so detrimental to the future faith people need to have in this democracy.”

A former “Miracle on Ice” U.S. hockey team captain said Tuesday that he “couldn’t even imagine the mindset” of a transgender Olympic athlete who said they would burn the American flag at the podium, Fox News reported.
“I mean, first of all, burning the American flag anywhere is disgusting. To use your forum on the podium of the Olympic Games, I was like really, could someone actually think about doing that?,” Mike Eruzione told Fox and Friends. BMX Freestyle team member Chelsea Wolfe said she wanted to burn the U.S. flag on the Olympic podium in a Facebook post in March 2020.
