There’s been a push this year, especially, to try and step in the way of people who want to use a 3D printer to make their own firearms. Some states have banned so-called ghost guns entirely, but others are also trying to tell printer manufacturers that they can’t sell their products in those states unless they include software in the printers that bars it from making certain shaped parts entirely. And, there’s a problem with that. Being able to make your own firearm is something Americans have been able to do since well before the…
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Thursday that he plans to nominate Jay Clayton, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York and a former Securities and Exchange Commission chairman, as director of national intelligence. Trump announced the nomination on social media amid pressure from Congress to name a permanent replacement for Tulsi Gabbard, who resigned last month. Trump faced intense pushback over his decision to name Bill Pulte, head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, as acting director. The job oversees the coordination of 18 intelligence agencies. The situation has led to a standoff in Congress…
Ticks have always been one of the most annoying parts of going outside. It doesn’t take much for one to attach, and these pests can cause life-threatening illnesses. Unfortunately, things are going from bad to worse: New studies show that ticks are becoming more widespread and causing potentially more severe diseases. Distribution If you’ve been in the outdoors recently, it might feel like ticks are everywhere, and you’re not wrong. In April, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported that hospital visits for tick bites in 2026 had spiked far above average. In almost every region of the U.S., weekly…
A New York congressional candidate endorsed by Moms Demand Action has come out in favor of a position that’s even more extreme than what the Bloomberg-funded anti-gun group has been willing to call for publicly. Diana Kastenbaum, who’s one of two Democrats competing for the chance to take on Rep. Claudia Tenney in the midterms this year, declared her desire to ban all semi-automatic firearms during a debate in Batavia, New York on Tuesday evening. Gun control arose twice as a topic. It developed first when Kastenbaum touted her endorsement by Moms Demand Action, a gun control…

There are lots of ways to slice and dice automotive sales and production data in search of trends that signal a shift from month to month, quarter to quarter, or year to year. Clump together 10 or 20 years of data and you start to see the big picture. That’s one way that Experian, the credit reporting agency, looks at US sales trends, with a unique focus on “vehicles in operation,” or VIO. Experian’s data goes back decades, which explains how the company can account for the 298 million vehicles on American roads today, up from 293.5 million in the…
I hate checking a bag. Waiting at an airport luggage carousel with a bunch of other weary travelers after a long flight is not my idea of a good time. I’d rather pack light and rewear certain items than bring a giant bag with things I likely won’t need. This all means I demand a good amount of durability and capacity from a carry-on bag, and with the Coraza luggage from Cotopaxi, I get all of those needs met. From the sun-bleached sidewalks in Turks and Caicos to the rugged farm stays of Montana, the Coraza rolled everywhere I went…
Imagine doing everything right in your business, but still being vilified by someone who despises your entire industry? On one level, it’s not like they were going to be customers anyway, but on another, they’re trying to paint you as a criminal despite doing everything you can to do things correctly. It’s not your fault that they your products keep ending up in the wrong hands within a few years after you sell them. That’s exactly what Brady likes to do with their “name and shame” tactics. They don’t really have any evidence that certain…
Graham Platner has received a wave of both praise and criticism in recent weeks. The U.S. Senate candidate from Maine continues to garner support from at least one particular demographic: veterans groups. Platner officially became the Democratic Party candidate on Tuesday evening after comfortably defeating Gov. Janet Mills, whose campaign was suspended in April due to a lack of fundraising though she remained on the ballot. The Associated Press called the race as 8% of the votes were counted, when Platner had earned 75% of the vote. NBC News later reported that Platner garnered roughly 149,800 votes, or 72%, compared…
LONDON (AP) — U.K. Defense Secretary John Healey unexpectedly resigned on Thursday, saying the government isn’t willing to spend enough on the military at a time of “rising threats.” The resignation is another blow to embattled Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who is already facing demands from Labour colleagues to step down. Healey told Starmer in a letter that the government’s Defense Investment Plan falls “well short of what is required at this dangerous time.” Publication of the plan has been delayed amid reports of disagreement between the defense ministry and the Treasury. Starmer has pledged to boost U.K. defense spending…
The Tradition Community Association, which serves as the HOA for the massive planned community in Port St. Lucie known as Tradition, has formally rescinded a rule prohibiting lawful carry in common areas of the development. Tradition is home to nearly 10,000 people, but both residents and visitors were barred from carrying on the miles of trails, retail shopping spaces, and even dog parks after TCA adopted a policy several months ago prohibiting the practice. Many homeowners said the ban caught them off guard, and had no idea the association had adopted the rule until they received…
WASHINGTON (AP) — Construction of the 250-foot-high triumphal arch that President Donald Trump wants built near the Lincoln Memorial could occur 20 hours per day, year-round, as officials push to complete the project within three years, according to a preliminary assessment by the National Park Service. Tower cranes up to 320 feet tall, forklifts, concrete pump systems and other equipment would be needed to build the arch, which would be more than twice as high as the Lincoln Memorial. Work would occur year-round in two 10-hour shifts per day, the Park Service report said. The 24-page assessment by NPS staff…

The history of gun control in America has its roots in racism. Many of the first gun control laws were created not to increase public safety so much as to disarm groups that were disfavored, including Native Americans and freed black men and women. While anti-gunners of today would probably argue that the policies they push are nothing of the sort, they also tend to see any racial disparity in the impact of a law as a sign of racism. Unless, I guess, they’re the ones doing it.Over at our sister site, Townhall, my friend…
A new study finds that the federal government’s deployment of U.S. National Guard soldiers into Washington D.C. heavily reduced property crimes but had no real impact on murders and violent crime. Thousands of National Guardsmen from across the country have been in the nation’s capital since August 2025, following orders from President Donald Trump to combat what he described as a crime problem in the District of Columbia. About two months into the deployment, a Joint Task Force (JTF) D.C. told Military.com that the Guard is “uniquely qualified” due to strong local ties, disciplined training, and the ability to integrate…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The U.S and Iran traded strikes for a second day, pushing the Middle East closer to the resumption of a full-scale war. The American attack, which lasted into Thursday morning in Iran, appeared more intense and wider than the day before, but Tehran released little information on the extent of the damage. An Indian official said a U.S. attack on an oil tanker allegedly trying to violate Washington’s blockade on Iranian ports killed three Indian mariners, underscoring the danger to seafarers. It was the third time this week that back-and-forth strikes have rattled the…
It’s been six years since the U.S. Army partnered with the American Red Cross at Fort Polk, La. in a pioneering dental assistant program that trains military spouses, veterans and other military family members in a specialized field of work. Individuals are once again reaping the benefits. The hiatus was mostly due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the availability of dental clinics as partners in the program. Now it’s back, with dozens of trainees participating in the program in Louisiana, across the country and worldwide. “It was really the pandemic. Outside dentists and dental assistants didn’t want to come on…
