In the Supreme Court case regarding gun ownership for marijuana use, the government’s position mostly hinges on laws that took guns from drunks. The argument is that habitual drinkers weren’t safe to own guns; the Founding Fathers understood that, and thus disarmed them. Under the Rahimi standard of historic analogs not having to be a one-to-one analog, that should be enough to justify disarming marijuana users. Of course, from my experience, people who just use marijuana are more likely to be a danger to the snack food aisle at the Circle K than anything else,…
The United States was behind a strike on an Iranian school that killed 168 children and staff members. The February 28th strike on the Shajarah Tayyebeh girls’ school came on the first day of the unprovoked U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran. This strike was a part of the initial “preemptive” attack that also killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khemeni. Iran Has Confirmed The Death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei In an analysis done by the New York Times, which was based on newly released satellite imagery, verified social media posts, and geolocated videos, the media outlet concluded that the school…
Last month, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced plans to build a border wall in state and national parks in Texas, sparking outcry from public lands advocates and locals. In a quiet modification of online plans for the wall, the agency reversed course, eliminating the physical barrier and instead opting only for surveillance technology. The Original Plan In February, then-DHS Secretary Kristi Noem announced that the agency would waive 28 environmental and historic preservation laws to build a “Smart Wall” (a physical barrier with surveillance technology) in Big Bend National Park and Big Bend Ranch State Park in Texas.…
Two new bills introduced in the Rhode Island legislature are taking aim at legal gun owners, and one of them could easily turn lawful gun owners into criminals overnight, simply for maintaining possession of the firearms they legally purchased. Each of these bills, by themselves, represent a major infringement on the right to keep and bear arms, but taken together they pose an existential threat to the Second Amendment rights of Rhode Island residents. Who would have guessed that a sales ban would turn into a possession ban?Everyone.The Rhode Island House has introduced H8073, an update…
In the ongoing debate over public lands in Congress, one national monument has received an outsized amount of attention. For 3 decades, multiple administrations and politicians have sparred over the size and fate of Grand Staircase–Escalante National Monument in Utah. This week, the controversy reached a new phase when Republican legislators introduced a resolution to throw out the resource management plan for the land that was adopted in the last days of the Biden presidency. The ultimate use and size of the monument will affect multiple stakeholders, including local communities, Native American tribes, and livestock owners. What Is Grand Staircase–Escalante…
With the World War II veteran population dwindling, it’s a rare occasion to see two former soldiers from that era come together much less than 10. But thanks to Myia Barton, a dedicated social worker, that’s what happened Wednesday in Beaumont, Texas. Barton brought 10 members of the Greatest Generation – all over age 100 or will be reaching the century mark this year – together for a special birthday celebration at a Department of Veterans Affairs clinic in Beaumont. Barton has planned and coordinated the event for the past couple of years, ignited from an idea and a passion to help veterans…

A court ruling that dismissed a case in which the plaintiffs challenged New Jersey’s law prohibiting the publication of computer files containing digital firearms information has prompted additional action by one gun-rights organization. After a three-judge panel of the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals recently dismissed the case in Defense Distributed v. Attorney General of New Jersey, the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) has filed a petition for rehearing. Originally filed in 2018, the case challenges the New Jersey statute dealing with digital firearms information on First and Second Amendment grounds. According to FPC, the dismissal was largely based not on…
One hope coming out of American bombing campaigns in Iran is that, rather than needing to deploy troops to Iran, the Iranian people themselves might rise up and overthrow the tyrannical Islamic theocratic regime. However, since it is a repressive regime, gun ownership isn’t exactly something just everyone can partake in. They don’t respect any rights, but especially the right to keep and bear arms. That means it’s going to be hard for anyone to take up arms and take out their ruling overlords.But, as Lee Williams notes, it seems that despite the laws, gun…
When it comes to stockpiling food and survival supplies, there can be too much of a good thing. For example, you could buy so much perishable food that you won’t be able to eat it all before it expires, even if you try. Or you could stockpile enough guns and ammo for a small army, but if it’s just you and your family, what’s the point?However, there are certain survival supplies that you really can’t overdo. No matter how many of them you buy, you could probably stand to get a few more (unless you literally run out of space).…
Canada has a national-level red flag law. They can swoop in and take guns from people who are reported to be a danger to themselves or others. Well, probably mostly others, since they’re pretty quick to let people who want to kill themselves not only do it, but do it on the government’s dime. Still, they have the law in place.The problem, at least so far as some are concerned, is that they have no idea how effective the law actually is.Well, that would be fair, except guess what metrics they think should be used.”Red…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. A Global Food Catastrophe Has Been Ignited The United States and Israel have struck Iran, and the consequences are already cascading far beyond the Middle East. This is not merely another regional skirmish; it is the ignition of a global food catastrophe that will unfold with terrifying speed. The Strait of Hormuz, a critical artery for global energy and fertilizer shipments, is effectively closed. This single act has severed a massive portion of the world’s natural gas supply, the foundational feedstock for modern agriculture. If nothing changes, the price…
As the sun started to drop over the Wyoming prairie, a crew of hunters and I quickly prepped to get rifles zeroed at the range. It had been a long travel day, and there wasn’t much time to get dialed for the next day’s coyote hunt. I grabbed the Kifaru Roam Crosslayer hoodie and rushed out to load up in the truck. January in Wyoming may elicit images of an icy, wind-ripped landscape, but this trip was shaping up to be unseasonably warm. That evening, temperatures sat comfortably in the 50s, and a light grid fleece hoody was all I…
President Donald Trump says he’ll soon issue his endorsement in the bruising Texas Senate primary between Attorney General Ken Paxton and incumbent John Cornyn, but he’s not the only D.C denizen trying to shape the Texas elections. On Thursday, House leaders, including Speaker Mike Johnson, implored embattled Rep. Tony Gonzales to drop his re-election bid after Gonzales finally confessed to having an affair with a staffer who later took her own life by self-immolation. “The Ethics Committee has announced an investigation into Congressman Tony Gonzales’s conduct, and we urge them to act expeditiously,” Johnson and the…
Images by the author I recently acquired two AR rifles… a Ruger Harrier, and an HM Defense Stealth MS5 suppressed gun. I needed a way to transport them to my range and to have somewhere to keep them when they were out of the safe. I think I found a great way to do that… a GPS Double Bolt Rifle Case. This $120 dual case is made for bolt-action, scoped rifles, but it works very well with semi-autos, as I found out. The “bolt” part of the title refers to the fact that it is slightly larger than cases designed…
Wildflowers are one of nature’s most beautiful — and fleeting — treasures. One week, they carpet a meadow in a sea of colorful blooms; the next, they might all be gone. Seeing them takes timing, planning, and a little luck. If you’re looking to photograph a super bloom this spring or take in some striking vistas, multiple national parks offer top-tier wildflower viewing. Here’s everything you need to know about when and where to visit, and events to help you appreciate these gems.

If you live in a free state, you already know the drill: strap on your legally owned firearm and go about your day. If you live in New York, California, D.C., or a handful of other anti-gun strongholds? Not so much. That divide is exactly what Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) says he wants to end. On March 5, Lee introduced the National Constitutional Carry Act, a bill that would establish nationwide permitless carry for law-abiding Americans. The House version is being led by Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY). And yes, this one goes big. What the Bill Would Do According to…
