The legality of so-called assault weapons is sitting in the scales of justice with the U.S. Supreme Court. An amicus shoots through the “dangerous and unusual” defense of bans. Viramontes v. Cook County, consolidated with Grant v. Higgins, are cases challenging local and state prohibitions respectively on commonly owned semi-automatic firearms. The cases will likely put an end to categorical bans on so-called assault weapons. 46 amicus briefs have been filed in these cases. One brief submitted by the Hawaii Rifle Association takes a novel approach to language used in Heller.The 79-page brief authored by…
By the time most Americans understood that the country was under attack on Sept. 11, 2001, the military’s air defense network had already been improvising for nearly an hour, working with a fraction of the information it needed and, in at least one case, chasing a hijacked airplane that had already crashed. The 9/11 Commission spent years reconstructing what happened inside that network that morning, and its findings, laid out in detail by Air & Space Forces Magazine’s minute-by-minute account of the commission’s report, describe a military response defined less by failure than by an air defense architecture unsuited to…

American Airlines Flight 77 struck the western face of the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. Sept. 11, 2001, killing 184 people — 125 inside the building and 59 aboard the aircraft, according to the Department of Defense’s account published for the 2008 dedication of the Pentagon Memorial. Unfinished construction work saved an untold number of lives that morning in 2001, and the people who ran back into a burning building to pull colleagues out were, in many cases, service members. The Renovation That Saved Lives The section of the Pentagon that Flight 77 struck had just emerged from a three-year, $258…

Days before the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, a military judge excluded what prosecutors called their best account from the man accused of planning them. Air Force Lt. Col. Michael Schrama ruled Aug. 28 that statements Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave FBI agents at Guantanamo Bay in January 2007 were involuntary, according to CBS News. The ruling suppresses the confession; it does not dismiss the charges or decide Mohammed’s guilt. He and three co-defendants still face a capital military commission now scheduled to begin in June 2028. Why the FBI Interview Failed Mohammed’s disputed confession came from four days…

Ask anyone the kinds of things that preppers stockpile and you’ll hear the same things every time: food, water, flashlights, batteries, first aid kits, etc. These things are the foundation of any serious prepper plan, and for good reason. They’re things that will keep you alive when the power goes out or the store shelves empty. But there’s another category of gear that a lot of experienced preppers rarely bring up in conversation. These are things that don’t make it into the typical beginner checklists, not because they’re useless, but because they sit in a legal gray area or carry…
Straw buys are overhyped as a source of guns, at least in my opinion, but they’re still an issue. Even if you dislike the laws that lead to such things, the truth is that it’s illegal, and it’s going to be leveraged for more gun control at every opportunity. Yes, even if there’s no interest in actually enforcing the laws in the first place. Which is why the National Shooting Sports Foundation is teaming up with the ATF and the Department of Justice.NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, together with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,…

Witkoff and Kushner are expected in Kyiv on Sunday. The talks come as both sides continue to escalate aerial attacks. Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy both agreed to pause strikes on each other’s…
The U.S. military has disabled advertising trackers on its phones and computers that can reveal a service member’s location, according to letters the armed services sent to Congress. Those disclosures, reported by Reuters and released Friday by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), show that most mobile-device protections were put in place only this year. The Air Force said it disabled advertising identifiers on its computers and phones about two months ago. U.S. Special Operations Command said it had “recently” disabled them on its Windows devices. The Army said it had blocked the identifiers on Windows computers “since before 2021” but had…

The number of homeless veterans across the country is on the decline. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, approximately 32,495 veterans experience homelessness on a single night nationwide, marking a continuous downward trend.
