A Texas Army National Guard sergeant has spent in excess of $3,000 attempting to bring her deported husband back to the states, claiming that federal immigration agencies ignored her military status and husband’s citizenship attempts. Sgt. Nataly Castro, 26, a seven-year veteran who lives in Houston, married her husband, Fredy, on April 9, 2023. Last November, he was deported around Thanksgiving to El Salvador during what she described as a pending family-based immigration case, despite what she claimed was U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) being privy to her military service and the…
Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier appears to have accomplished what state lawmakers were unable (and in some cases, unwilling) to do for the past several years: get rid of the state’s three-day waiting period on gun sales that was signed into law by then-Gov. Rick Scott after the Parkland shooting in 2018. Every government office, including mine, exists to protect your God-given rights as enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.That’s why we’re settling a landmark federal case that declares Florida’s 3-day firearm purchase waiting period unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. https://t.co/9ZSZjhTO3m— Attorney General James Uthmeier (@AGJamesUthmeier)…
Capcom may have accidentally confirmed that a Resident Evil Code: Veronica remake is going to be announced soon, likely during the Summer Game Fest. While the confirmation isn’t explicit, it follows a pattern of what Capcom has done prior to other Resident Evil game reveals. Fans of the Resident Evil franchise have been asking for a Code: Veronica remake for a very long time now, especially following the release of the other Resident Evil remakes. So far, Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 have all received state-of-the-art RE Engine remakes, but Code: Veronica has been strangely absent from that list.…
The U.S. and Iran have made little progress in talks over an interim peace deal this week, with the sides seeing their worst clashes since an April ceasefire began and fighting continuing in Lebanon. Skirmishes continued overnight between Hezbollah and Israel in southern Lebanon after the Iran-backed group rejected a U.S.-brokered proposal aimed at securing a broader truce. Even so, Hezbollah’s attacks on northern Israel have eased, while Israel has held off striking Beirut after threatening to do so earlier this week. Iran insists on a ceasefire in Lebanon before accepting a deal with the U.S. that’s meant to extend…

This article was originally published by Philippe Lemieux at The Mises Institute. Modern economic life no longer unfolds within reality as it emerges from human action. It operates within a constructed order that substitutes itself for real processes. Governments do not engage with the economy as it is lived and experienced. They act upon abstractions that stand in for it. What is presented as analysis is in fact a replacement. Modern central banks often justify monetary policy decisions by targeting inflation indexes that no longer reflect the real cost of living experienced by individuals. While official statistics may report stable…

For a while, gun control was a non-starter at the federal level. President Barack Obama wanted it, but he knew that Congress would never pass it. He did a few executive orders on guns, tried to make it look like we were responsible for the violence in Mexico–and did it by making FFL holders conduct straw sales knowing full well those guns were going to the cartels–but otherwise wasn’t able to do much of anything. Things didn’t stay that way, though, because mass shootings happened and the media convinced America that gun control was needed,…
Federal prosecutors have charged a California technology executive with participating in a years-long scheme to acquire U.S.-made networking, security and encryption equipment and supply it to customers in Iran, including organizations tied to the country’s nuclear and military establishments. The U.S. Department of Justice announced June 3 that Jamshid Ghomi, 63, of Newport Coast, Calif., was arrested and charged with conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, or IEEPA. Prosecutors allege Ghomi, a dual U.S.-Iranian citizen plus founder, owner and CEO of Tehran-based Faraz Pardaz Rayaneh Co. Ltd. (FPR), used the company to procure restricted American technology for…
Gun control laws are terrible at preventing crime, and by their very nature they’re almost impossible to proactively enforce by themselves. If a violent felon is carrying a gun concealed underneath his shirt and jacket, for instance, cops aren’t going to know that unless he gives them a pretext to stop and frisk him. Or, as another example, when someone is pulled over for a traffic stop. A 17-year-old was arrested Wednesday after police recovered a loaded ghost gun during a traffic stop, authorities said.Members of the Holyoke Police Narcotics Unit and the DEA Springfield Task…
Two researchers with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have been charged with conspiracy to smuggle monkeypox into the United States and giving false statements to federal law enforcement. Vincent Munster and Claude Kwe, both researchers at the Rocky Mountain Laboratory in Hamilton, Mont., are accused of lying to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents about the contents of their research, according to an announcement made Wednesday by the Department of Justice. They each face a maximum five-year prison sentence. “No researchers should believe their positions, credentials, or professional status place them above the law,” Jennifer Runyan, special agent…
Are cars back? Honda has just announced sales figures for May, and its passenger car sales hit their highest levels since 2021. That includes the Civic, which is doing better than it has in the last five years. As for Accord, it’s on a three-year high.

This article was originally published by Micahel Snyder at The End of the American Dream. The waters of the Pacific Ocean are getting extremely warm, and that could provide fuel for an immensely destructive climate event that is unlike anything we have ever seen before. Even the United Nations has issued an ominous warning about the El Niño event that is in the long-term forecast, because it will have a dramatic impact on every man, woman, and child on the entire planet. We are being told that there is more than an 80 percent chance that El Niño conditions will…
Laura Ingalls didn’t have a power drill, but I bet you her life would have been a lot easier if she did. Listen, your homestead isn’t going to collapse and crumble without having every single one of the tools on the list—at least not right away. But over time as weather wears on your roof and rain mucks up your roads, you are certainly going to need some reinforcement. The following list of homestead tools includes just about everything you will need. Homesteading isn’t a process that happens overnight. Purchase these homestead tools as you need them until you have…
On the heels of what many are calling the West’s worst winter on record, many skiers and riders are concerned about the future of their sports. According to climate scientists, average annual precipitation rates are decreasing west of the Rocky Mountains. Additionally, as weather patterns become more extreme with climate change, high-tide years could be followed by more frequent and significant drought years, like this one. Powder days are no longer guaranteed in every season. But Augustus Doriko is trying to change that. “The American West and regions throughout the globe don’t have enough water,” Doriko told GearJunkie. “And the…
Having been at this for a while now, there are certain things that keep coming up over and over again. They’re touted by gun control advocates as things that absolutely have to be restricted and restricted immediately if we want to ensure public safety. That is always the reason they give, or some variation of it. But, well, we know they’re not interested in safety. If they were, they’d be asking for things like improved mental health resources, tougher sentences for violent offenders, increased funding for law enforcement, and so on. They’d be calling for…
