Multiple lawsuits have been filed in both state and federal court since Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed a bill outlawing the sale, manufacture, and transfers of so-called assault firearms and large capacity magazines, as well as another measure prohibiting the carrying of “assault firearms” in most public spaces. Spanberger is also facing an enforcement challenge in addition to the legal challenges, with a growing number of county sheriffs and Commonwealth Attorneys declaring their intent not to enforce the new laws if they take effect on July 1. Earlier this week I reported on two prosecutors…
Bungie is reportedly facing another major round of layoffs, and Destiny 3 is not currently in active development. According to a new Bloomberg report cited by IGN, the Destiny 2 developer is expected to be hit with “significant” layoffs in the near future, creating even more uncertainty around the studio’s future after years of instability under Sony. The report arrives shortly after Bungie confirmed that Destiny 2 will receive its final live-service content update on June 9, 2026. The update, Monument of Triumph, will mark the end of active development for Destiny 2, though Bungie has said the game will…

A Houston police pursuit in 2022 could’ve ended with officers trapped inside a burning patrol car. Instead, it turned into one of those stories that sounds more like a movie scene than real life: a Tesla slamming into police, a violent crash, suspects bailing on foot, a patrol unit erupting into flames, ammo cooking off in the cabin, and officers still chasing suspects while their rifles melted inside the inferno. And now, for the first time, one of the officers involved is telling the full story exclusively to GunsAmerica. Houston Police Department Officer Vincent Li says the incident started during…
Pullups are among the toughest exercises in calisthenics, and as with any strength-endurance exercise, hitting a plateau is a challenge. Pullups require the strength to lift your entire body weight with your arms. Obviously, the heavier you are, the harder this exercise becomes. For those seeking to maximize pullup fitness, the first pullup is often the biggest challenge, as it requires greater strength. The next challenge is adding more repetitions, which requires building muscle endurance to reach 10 or more. Hitting a plateau is the next challenge, especially if you have a goal of 20 or more pullups. Here is…
HELSINGBORG, Sweden (AP) — NATO allies and defense officials expressed bewilderment Friday at U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement that he would send 5,000 U.S. troops to Poland just weeks after ordering the same number of forces pulled out of Europe. The apparent change of mind came after weeks of statements from Trump and his administration about reducing — not increasing — the U.S. military footprint in Europe. Trump’s initial order set off a flurry of action among military commanders and left allies already doubtful about America’s commitment to Europe’s security to ponder what forces they might have to backfill on…

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — Taiwan hasn’t been notified of any pause in a planned $14 billion U.S. arms sale to the self-governing island, a government official said Friday, after the acting U.S. Navy secretary told a Senate committee in Washington that some foreign military sales were being delayed to ensure the American military has enough munitions for the Iran war. Days after U.S. President Donald Trump raised doubts about continuing arms sales to Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory, acting U.S. Navy Secretary Hung Cao said Thursday that the sales would resume when the administration considers it appropriate.…

The House on Thursday passed what supporters are calling the most significant expansion of benefits in decades for some of the veteran community’s most vulnerable families, approving bipartisan legislation that would boost support for catastrophically wounded veterans and Gold Star families while expanding VA home loan access for National Guard and Reserve members. The legislation, the Sharri Briley and Eric Edmundson Veterans Benefits Expansion Act, passed the House by a vote of 235-179 and now heads to the Senate. According to House leaders and the bill’s sponsors, the measure would increase benefits for more than 7,000 severely disabled veterans and…

My spouse works his tail end off for his country, not to mention risking his life and leaving his family behind for months at a time. So it’s pretty great when people who are not in the military recognize his service with a military thank you. He finds it a little embarrassing, but sometimes I secretly plot ways for us to run errands right after he gets off work and before he has time to change out of his uniform just so that I can hear people thank him for his service. It’s heartwarming. And then there are the little…
Throughout America, as you read this, there is some highschool kid who wants to buy beer and who will likely reach out to some stranger outside of a store about buying it for them. Most of the time, this goes off without a hitch because, well, it’s beer and it’s also not like a lot of us didn’t drink while underage, right? However, what happens when someone tries that with a felony? After all, carrying out a straw buy is a felony in and of itself, as is trying to get someone to carry out…
It’s easy to assume that cheap models in any segment are bound to be unreliable, but that’s not the case today. That said, there are always families searching for the best possible deal on a new SUV that fits their family comfortably and drives for years with minimal maintenance and repair costs. On top of that, shoppers are looking for the safest crossovers to keep their families protected. All-wheel drive is a great start, since it provides better traction and handling in adverse weather and on rougher roads than a front- or rear-wheel-drive vehicle would. However, “cheap” is losing its…

I’m not a big fan of reality television, and I haven’t seen a single second of the show The Hills, so I had no real idea how shocking Spencer Pratt’s campaign to become the next mayor Los Angeles really is. I guess it’s kind of like Snookie being a frontrunner to become New Jersey governor, or Honey BooBoo being a favorite for mayor of Hogwaller Hollow or wherever she’s from. If I lived in L.A. I have no doubt that Pratt would be my choice for mayor, if only because he sounds like the most…
