Everyone has different standards when shopping for a car, especially one from the secondhand market, which is awash with cutcost Toyota Corollas and Tesla Model 3s. It pays to do your due diligence when inspecting any potential used vehicle purchase, but some criteria may also be required to narrow down which examples you want to focus on before making the important decision of handing over your money. These range from what optional equipment is featured, to the color, model year, how reliable it is, and, crucially, the indicated mileage. The general impression is that your money is best spent pursuing…
The countries of Brazil and Italy have both officially ruled out Ebola in suspected cases. The bad news is that cases continue to rise as the virus spreads across the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo). Uganda Closes Borders To DRC As Suspected Ebola Cases Are Now Over 1000 There are now more than 1,100 cases of the Bundibugyo strain of the virus suspected in what has quickly become the third-largest Ebola outbreak since the virus was discovered half a century ago. More than 350 deaths are suspected. “Never before has an Ebola outbreak recorded so many cases so soon…
Actors have always had this idea that their own political beliefs somehow mattered to their audiences. Luckily, before social media, it was pretty easy to ignore them and just enjoy the work…unless they sucked at it. But these days, it’s prime time for actors and actresses who support gun control to decide to lecture Americans about how we’re wrong for valuing our right to keep and bear arms. It’s always especially rich to hear people talk about how you and I shouldn’t have guns from people who make a lot of money handling a firearm on…

The Virginia judge who ruled the state’s “universal” background scheme was an unconstitutional violation of equal protection laws is set to hear arguments in two competing motions on Wednesday; one from the plaintiffs in the ligitation who say the head of the Virginia State Police should be held in contempt for resuming the background checks even though an injunction against enforcement remains in place, and a competing motion from anti-gun Attorney General Jay Jones, who argues the injunction should be dissolved but has also been rendered moot through a new piece of gun control legislation. …
For years, the Pentagon has warned that the biggest challenge in future conflicts may not be firepower, but logistics. Supplying dispersed ships and remote forces across thousands of miles of ocean has become a growing concern for military planners, particularly as China expands its naval capabilities and long-range missile systems throughout the Indo-Pacific. Former Marine Corps Harrier pilot Jason Maddocks believes autonomous aircraft could become part of the solution. From Harrier Cockpits to Autonomous Aircraft Maddocks, now vice president of programs at PteroDynamics, has spent much of his career at the intersection of military aviation and emerging aerospace technology. A…
WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Marco Rubio says he is optimistic about the potential for a resumption in nuclear talks with Iran despite a shaky ceasefire in the war looking increasingly in doubt. Rubio told lawmakers Tuesday in his first public testimony since the Iran war began that the Iranians have agreed to negotiate on nuclear points that they had not been willing to address in the past but would not offer an assessment on what those talks might produce. “They have agreed to negotiate aspects of their nuclear program that just a month ago, just a year ago,…
The last 2 years have brought more innovation in the world of bear canisters than we’ve seen in a long time. New shapes, sizes, and materials have been introduced in the past, but now two brands are offering canisters that can change sizes to suit different adventures. In 2025, REI launched the Traverse, the first modular bear canister. It’s essentially two different-sized bear canisters in one. It’s composed of three sections, the middle of which can be removed and conveniently nests around the bottom section. That way, as you eat through your food supplies, you can significantly reduce the canister’s…
When the courts issue an injunction, telling a state not to enforce a particular gun law, the state is required to stop enforcing that gun law. It’s not rocket science here, and while we can argue back and forth over the mechanisms involved, our system is rooted in the idea that all of the branches of government provide a check upon one another, but also have some degree of respect for the roles each plays. So, when Virginia announced that the state police were going to resume universal background checks, a lot of eyes opened…
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…

The Navy has confirmed the wreck site of the World War II submarine USS Herring, resolving the final resting place of a vessel lost with 83 sailors aboard after it was struck by Japanese shore batteries off Matsuwa Island on June 1, 1944.

The confirmation came exactly 82 years after Herring was believed to have been sunk during…
