The Denver-based 10th Circuit Court of Appeals has denied New Mexico’s petition for an en banc rehearing of the lawsuit challenging the “Land of Enchantment’s” seven-day waiting period for gun transfers. Consequently, an earlier ruling that invalidates the law will stand. The case Ortega v. Griffin targets a 2024 New Mexico law requiring individuals to wait seven days before taking possession of a newly purchased firearm—even after passing a background check and demonstrating that they are not prohibited from owning firearms. The law also states: “If the required federal instant background check has not been completed within twenty days, the…
In just a few days, Illinois’ latest assault on the right to keep and bear arms will take effect. With gun and magazine bans already on the books alongside measures like “red flag” laws, waiting periods, and a wide variety of “gun-free zones”, it’s hard to imagine how the state’s gun laws could get even worse, but this time around lawmakers are enacting new mandates to existing laws that deal with gun storage. The Illinois Safe Gun Storage Act could potentially impact almost every gun owner in the state, but its effects will be most…

This article was originally published by Kevin Huges at Natural News. Gold surged past $4,500/oz for the first time in history, while silver (+150%) and platinum (+82%) also hit unprecedented highs, driven by geopolitical tensions, fiat currency distrust, and anticipated U.S. rate cuts. Gold’s 70% YTD gain—its strongest since 1979—reflects its role as a hedge against economic instability, with central banks stockpiling reserves amid U.S. debt and trade uncertainties. Silver’s rally is fueled by real demand (not speculation) and supply disruptions, while platinum benefits from hydrogen fuel cell demand and easing European Union (EU) engine restrictions. Physical metal premiums (e.g.,…
Gun control advocates and gun rights activists have very different views on firearms, which is to be expected. We on this side of the discussion value the right to keep and bear arms, while that side would take everything they possibly can and then try to figure out how to take the rest. But everything hinges on what the Constitution, via the Second Amendment, allows.That’s where we’ve had a ton of arguments over the years, and it’s clear they’re not going to end anytime soon. Anti-gunners maintain that gun control is, in fact, constitutional, which is…

There’s a moment that happens in just about every concealed carry renewal class. Everyone shows up relaxed. They’ve been carrying for years. Nothing bad has happened. They assume they’re “good enough.” Then the first drill happens. Five yards. No timer. No pressure. Five careful shots. That’s when you see it on their faces. This isn’t what they expected. What happens when carrying a gun turns into a habit instead of a skill you actively maintain? After watching it play out repeatedly, a few patterns are impossible to ignore. The Guns People Carry and Why They’re Working Against Them The guns…
This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. China continues to signal, through overt public-facing propaganda, its readiness to challenge the U.S directly. Recent state media have published footage showing simulated naval conflict operations in the Caribbean, followed by the release of a video showcasing a hypersonic anti-ship missile capability. On Sunday, Chinese media outlet Global Times published a video on X featuring the YJ-20 hypersonic anti-ship missile. “An official Chinese media account, China Military Bugle, on Sunday unveiled the moment when a YJ-20 hypersonic anti-ship missile was launched from a Type 055 large destroyer of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA)…
One thing that annoys the hell out of me is the idea that fiction shouldn’t have moral white and black, but shades of gray. The idea that there aren’t really any good guys or bad guys is troubling. Sure, the truth is that everyone is flawed and I have no problem seeing that reflected in fictional characters, but we still need to see heroes and heroines on the big screen, the small screen, the printed page, and the video display of our computer or from our gaming console. We, as a society, need heroes. We…
California isn’t slowing down. It’s tightening the screws. With little fanfare and no legislative restraint, the Golden State is preparing to roll out another sweeping expansion of its ghost gun enforcement regime — one that reaches far beyond unfinished receivers and into barrels, accessories, digital files, and even consumer notifications. This time, it’s being framed not as gun control, but as “consumer protection.” California Attorney General Rob Bonta has released a new informational bulletin outlining two laws set to take effect on January 1, 2026. Together, they dramatically expand the state’s regulatory footprint over firearm-related products and those who buy,…
The amicus briefs authored in support of Hawaii’s “vampire rule” forbidding lawful concealed carry on all private property without explicit permission from the property owner come from a rogue’s gallery of anti-2A voices, including Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who’s name appears first on the amicus brief submitted by an outfit called Prosecutors Against Gun Violence in Wolford v. Lopez. The brief makes a number of outlandish claims, starting with the premise that exercising our fundamental right to bear arms is dangerous and disruptive conduct. This type of property rule has a long historical tradition. During…
