Endorsements probably shouldn’t matter all that much in politics, but the truth is that most people don’t devote all that much time into looking into the candidates. They get slammed by commercials for and against each candidate, leaving them a confused mess in the primaries, only to become a team sport in the general election, often without much more than a few articles or soundbites about what they actually stand for. So, endorsements matter because it’s a stamp of approval from someone you might trust. The issue is that some people trust some sketchy sources.The…
NEW YORK (AP) — In another of a series of moves restricting media access at the Pentagon, the Defense Department has declared that its press office is now a classified space inaccessible to journalists. On X, acting Pentagon press secretary Joel Valdez confirmed the move, saying there was “nothing controversial” about it and that it came because speechwriters, who use classified material, were now occupying the space. “The Pentagon Press Office has been redesignated as a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility due to speechwriters from the Office of the Secretary of War sharing the facility,” Valdez wrote. “These speechwriters routinely handle…

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. The Trump administration appears to be trying to inject new optimism across the nation’s farm belt following the China meeting last month, during which Beijing committed to making billions of dollars of new purchases of U.S. agricultural goods. The White House’s latest move is to reduce tariffs on tractors and combines, a policy shift aimed at easing cost pressures on farmers already squeezed by diesel, fertilizer, and machinery costs. Late Monday, President Trump signed a proclamation slashing tariffs on imported agricultural equipment, including combines and harvesters, from 25% to 15% to lower costs…
More than four years after the USS Connecticut slammed into an underwater mountain to force an emergency ascent off China’s southeast coast, the Seawolf-class submarine is nearing a return to service. But not long after, retirement is now looming for a sub that became a lifeboat for the southeastern Connecticut economy as the Cold War drew to a close. Designated SSN 22 in Navy shorthand, USS Connecticut was the second of three Seawolf-class attack submarines launched in Groton by General Dynamics Electric Boat in the 1990s, between USS Seawolf and USS Jimmy Carter. A technological marvel then and now, the…
When federal agents arrested retired Air Force Major Gerald Eddie Brown Jr. in Indiana in February 2026, prosecutors described him as exactly the kind of military aviator foreign governments would want to recruit: a former fighter pilot instructor and veteran of some of America’s most advanced military aviation programs. Brown agreed to use that expertise to train pilots in China’s military without the authorization required by U.S. law, according to federal prosecutors. His arrest came as another former American military pilot, Daniel Edmund Duggan, continued fighting extradition from Australia on similar allegations. Together, the cases have become some of the…

The Air Force is reshaping basic training around aircraft, small teams and simulated airfields as it prepares new airmen for future wars. For generations, Air Force basic military training (BMT) has centered on drill pads, inspections, dormitories and military discipline. Those elements aren’t disappearing. But in an interview with Military.com, Maj. Gen. Davidson, commander of 2nd Air Force, said the service is undertaking what he describes as the most significant transformation of Air Force basic training in decades. One designed to move trainees closer to the mission they will ultimately support. The overhaul includes a new training range featuring two…

Most hunters know there are few things more frustrating than seeing a mature buck wasted. Texas game wardens say one New Braunfels man allegedly made a habit of it. According to investigators, 55-year-old Darrell Maguire is facing 74 charges after allegedly illegally killing at least 13 white-tailed bucks across Comal, Hays, and Bexar counties over an 11-month period. Authorities claim many of the deer were shot with a crossbow from a vehicle, their heads removed, and their carcasses left behind. If the allegations prove true, it’s the kind of case that gives ethical hunters a bad name and fuels criticism…
For years, hunters have heard the same complaint: there’s never enough access. Too many gates. Too many restrictions. And, too many maps that make about as much sense as a treasure hunt drawn by a raccoon. That may finally be changing. The Trump administration and the Department of the Interior are making a major push to expand access to public lands, open new hunting opportunities, and make it easier for hunters to find places to go afield. And if you’ve been looking for a reason to plan that duck hunt, deer trip, or Western adventure, this might be it. Just…

The .444 Marlin and Remington 760 are not modern wonder rifles, and that is exactly why they matter. One brings big-bore lever-action authority, the other brings pump-gun speed in 30-06, and both still make a hard case for old-school hunting skill. Old School Cool – Part 1Old School Cool – Part 2Old School Cool – Part 3Old School Cool – Part 4Old School Cool – Part 5 The Remington and Marlin in this article have been featured previously on their own. However, those articles were mostly about how they came to be, and not really about their hunting abilities. Since…
