Report: President Obama Will Issue an Executive Order on Guns

The Associated Press reports that the White House is currently reviewing a proposal to expand background checks, but it isn't clear how he will do so.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama's advisers are finalizing a proposal that would expand background checks on gun sales without congressional approval.

White House adviser Valerie Jarrett says the president has asked his team to complete a proposal and submit it for his review "in short order." She says the recommendations will include measures to expand background checks.

Even though we have no details of what this executive order will entail, I'd say there's a 99 percent chance it will be challenged in court regardless of what the exact language is.

The fiery end-times speeches should begin flowing any minute now.
