When law enforcement opposes some pro-gun measure, the anti-gunners will run with that stuff like they’re a combination of David Goggins and Usain Bolt: fast as hell and for days on end. But what happens when law enforcement groups don’t support a measure? Well, that doesn’t seem to matter, then.And in Colorado, it apparently doesn’t matter even more than normal, because sheriffs are opposing the new training mandate for modern sporting rifles.Colorado’s gun control law that went into effect last week is receiving widespread pushback from many notable organizations in the state, including two county sheriffs’…
The Pentagon took major action against Stars and Stripes on Friday, firing its publisher, editor and a Middle East reporter. The Aug. 21 terminations included publisher Max Lederer Jr., editor-in-chief Erik Slavin and reporter Lara Korte, announced by the publication itself while the outgoing staffers vowed to maintain editorial independence. Slavin, who told CBS News in a July interview that he stood by the publication’s “editorial independence” and not kowtowing to the Pentagon’s agenda or control, told the publication following his firing that he received a notice of proposed separation and is reviewing it. Slavin became editor in 2025 after…
Tricare open enrollment, also known as Tricare open season, runs each year from mid-November through mid-December. For 2026, those dates are Nov. 9 to Dec. 8. What Is Tricare Open Enrollment? Open enrollment, or open season, is the time each year when beneficiaries can make changes to their Tricare coverage for the following year. Outside the annual open enrollment period, active-duty and retiree users can change only if they experience a “qualifying life event” (QLE). QLEs include circumstances such as a move, the birth of a baby, or a Tricare-directed change in a primary care provider. Pregnancy is not a…
On Tuesday, the Second Amendment Foundation and Defense Distributed won a key court case in the Fifth Circuit. This ruled that the ATF’s frame and receiver rule was unconstitutional. Cam covered the story then. This was a continuation, essentially, of the VanDerStock case, but after the case was remanded, Defense Distributed and the SAF were pretty much the last people standing.And, as we know, it paid off for them.The thing is, though, Defense Distributed was never going down without a fight.While the frame and receiver rule basically broke down into “it looks enough like a…
Only at certain times can you make changes to your Tricare health-care plans and coverage. Outside the annual open enrollment period, these times usually correspond to life events or changes in your situation or household, known as “qualifying life events” (QLEs). Depending on your eligibility, a QLE may let you enroll in a new insurance plan or change your coverage. If you want to enroll in or change your plan, you must make the enrollment changes within 90 days following the QLE and pay any enrollment fees or premiums that may be due for the new plan during those 90…
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has reversed a district court ruling in California and directed the judge to dismiss a lawsuit filed by the gun control group Giffords and the state of California against the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The lawsuit challenged the ATF’s interpretation of its own “frame or receiver” rule, complaining that the agency’s take on the rule wasn’t expansive enough. The ATF expanded the definition of a “frame” and “receiver” to include partially completed items that could be “readily converted” to fully functional devices, but it also stated…

Officials from the U.S., South Korea and Japan urged North Korea to halt…

WASHINGTON (AP) — An Army unit based in Europe that was specializing in drone warfare has been directed to end its efforts to learn and use the battlefield technology and return to being a traditional infantry battalion, officials said Thursday.

Roughly 86% of veterans have been met with scams crafted to target veterans by mentioning benefits or other military-related themes, according to new findings by Coveron, an identity theft and scam protection service developed by cybersecurity company Nord Security. “Scammers are increasingly exploiting the specialized language of military benefits to lower a veteran’s guard,” Tomas Sinicki, managing director at Coverson, said in a statement. “By impersonating officials and creating a false sense of urgency around benefit updates or service records, these criminals exploit the very…
