Janja Garnbret is no stranger to success. The 27-year-old Slovenian is arguably the greatest competition climber of all time. She has won 49 gold medals on the World Cup circuit, the most elite level of competition. While Garnbret has never been a slouch in outdoor climbing (she’s sent V15 and 5.14d, after all), her competition dominance has always outshone her achievements on real rock. That is, until now. On June 8, Garnbret announced that she sent Bibliographie (5.15c), becoming the first woman and only sixth person to send the iconic route — long considered one of the world’s most difficult.…

Yet again, the Supreme Court’s orders from its weekly conference have been released with no news on any of the five lawsuits challenging bans on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines.  Sorry, 19th*.I forgot one was a reschedule.— Kostas Moros (@MorosKostas) June 8, 2026I still think SCOTUS is waiting on the Third Circuit to issue its en banc opinion in the challenges to New Jersey’s gun and magazine ban, which could create a circuit court split on the constitutionality of banning commonly-owned arms. As some have theorized, though, the Third Circuit could be waiting…

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans are warning the White House that a critical surveillance authority is likely to lapse this week amid bipartisan backlash over President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the nation’s intelligence community. Sen. Tom Cotton, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, sounded the alarm over the weekend after a failed procedural vote to extend the program. The senators in a letter urged Secretary of State Marco Rubio to prepare “for a potential significant gap in foreign intelligence collection” if the authority expires. Section 702 of the Foreign…

Ebola cases have now topped 500, and more than 90 deaths due to the virus have been reported, according to the latest figures released by the National Institute of Public Health. This outbreak has proven difficult for health officials to track and contain. On Sunday, the authorities recorded 515 confirmed infections and 91 deaths across the provinces of Ituri, North Kivu, and South Kivu, bringing the overall case fatality rate to 17.7%. More than half of all patients remain under isolation or hospital care, while only 12 people have officially recovered. “People Are Hiding” During Ebola Outbreak, Making Containment Difficult…

I’ve been backpack hunting for over a decade now, and I’ve tried quite a few different stoves and seen even more in action from friends. There are a lot of good ones and a few great ones, even, but none that have been made specifically for the hunt. Until now, that is. The Roughridge Highcountry Cook System is a stove made by hunters for hunters. Yeah, I know. That phrase gets tossed around a lot these days. Being “made by hunters for hunters” is all fine and dandy, but that doesn’t have anything to do with whether it actually works…

For years, gun control supporters tried to argue that they didn’t want to interfere with your right to keep and bear arms. They just wanted some laws that might delay you buying a gun, but would supposedly keep the criminals from getting them. Of course, we know that was always a load of BS. They don’t like people buying guns at all, and they want to do everything they can to discourage gun ownership. If they can’t ban it, they want to demonize guns while also making it as difficult as possible to get one,…
