Hawaii has been under a microscope because of their anti-Second Amendment stance, and lawmakers are unrepentant in their efforts to undermind a fundamental right.  On Jan. 20, 2026 attorney Alan Beck delivered masterful and sound arguments when challenging Hawaii’s so-called “sensitive location” law. Wolford v. Lopez seeks to undo Hawaii’s flipping of the default firearm possession rules; their law makes it so carriers must get affirmative permission to carry a firearm on private property open to the public. Three days after Beck minced Hawaii’s flawed arguments, a bill was introduced that would force all businesses…

A lifted Bentley with a go-kart on the roof? The Bentley Bentayga X concept is an ultra-fancy off-roader that has been cranked up for clearance, beefed up for strength, and then had the strangest cargo we’ve seen in a long time added to the roof. All this was revealed at one of the coolest ice race events in the world. A Bentley Speed Model for Off-Pavement Use (Photo/Bentley) When it comes to on-road performance, Bentley has things covered. From its Continental GT and Bentayga Speed models to the hilarious “lightweight” Supersports, there are plenty of half-million–dollar options. If you want…

Several Second Amendment groups have filed amicus briefs today in U.S. v. Hemani, which is the case dealing with the constitutionality of Section 922(g)(3); the prohibition on gun ownership by “unlawful” drug users.  Tom covered the brief from a coalition of 2A groups including Second Amendment Foundation, California Rifle & Pistol Association, and the MN Gun Owners Caucus, but I’ll be taking a look at the other briefs today and over the weekend; starting with the brief filed by the New York State Rifle & Pistol Association. NYSPRA has been actively involved in litigation for many…

Arizona is already home to three national parks, and soon, it may be getting another. This week, legislators introduced bills in Congress to designate Chiricahua National Monument as a national park. What Is Chiricahua National Monument? Located about 120 miles from Tucson, Ariz., Chiricahua National Monument was created in 1924. The crowning glory of the mountainous 10,000-acre area is its striking rock towers and pinnacles. There are 17 miles of hiking trails, and horseback riding is also popular. An 8-mile scenic drive offers sweeping vistas of Bonita Canyon. (Photo/NPS, Katy Hooper) According to data from the National Park Service (NPS),…

There are typically a handful of cases where I honestly can’t comprehend why we can’t just agree on a couple of gun laws, namely, to repeal them. The prohibition against people who use marijuana in accordance with state law is a prime example. Alright, maybe it’s not, because some people don’t think it should be legal on any level, thus the prohibition makes sense in their minds.Others are very pro-legalization and who don’t want to see the prohibition repealed so much as the legalization to take place where it no longer applies.For most people, they…

Lindsey Vonn’s Olympic ambitions might be in jeopardy. The 41-year-old skier was racing in Crans-Montana, Switzerland, on Friday, Jan. 30, at the final World Cup stop before Olympic training starts next week, when she lost control and crashed. Vonn was visibly hurt and airlifted to a nearby hospital for treatment. Vonn was the third skier to crash on the Crans-Montana course, which had already been shortened due to poor conditions. The race was canceled after her accident. The extent of Vonn’s injuries remains unknown. However, her coach, two-time Olympic champion Aksel Lund Svindal, shared some details with Reuters. “She has…

Virginia isn’t the only state where Democrat lawmakers are trying to ram through a bill banning commonly owned guns and magazines this year. In New Mexico, where lawmakers are 10 days in to their 30-day session, several Democrats are pushing SB 17; a bill that would not only ban all gas-operated semi-automatic centerfire rifles and pistols that can accept detachable magazines, but would subject the state’s federally licensed gun dealers to an onslaught of state-level mandates as well.  SB 17 passed out of its first committee earlier this week on a party line vote, despite…

This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News.  Introduction A palpable tension grips the nation in 2026. The cheers from some quarters for the extrajudicial actions of federal agents signal more than partisan victory; they herald a fundamental rupture in America’s social contract. The rule of law, due process, and constitutional protections are being sacrificed on the altar of tribal rage, pushing the country toward its second civil war. This descent did not begin with a single event, but with the abandonment of principle. When citizens applaud state violence against their neighbors, they unwittingly sign their own…

Texas has long had a reputation as being one of the most pro-gun states in the country, but it was largely overblown up until recently. Before they passed constitutional carry, carry permits required training, for one thing, which is more infringement than many other states had. But that was then, this is now.Now, it just about lives up to that reputation, and in the wake of the…um…discussion about whether you can bring a gun to a protest or not, the governor there makes it very clear what he thinks, and it’s a very good thing…

Minoru “Mino” Ohye has a truly unique story not matched by many other veterans. Not only did Ohye turn 100 years old recently and is one of the last remaining World War II veterans, but he also served for both the Japanese Imperial Army and the U.S. Army.  Ohye was born in Sacramento, California in 1926. However, after his father was killed in a fishing accident, Ohye and his brother were sent to Japan to live with their extended family, according to CBS Sacramento. At just 13 years old, Ohye was forced into military service, joining the Japanese Imperial Army’s youth division.…
