The US Virgin Islands is one of the most anti-gun territories in the United States. They seem to have no respect for gun rights, with might not be relevant if they weren’t a US territory and thus subject to the Constitution. I’m not sure the lawmakers there really seem to understand that, though, with their history of gun-grabbing, but it doesn’t make it any less true. And they’re at it again, this time with a bill containing numerous provisions, including a “vampire rule.”That’s led the Second Amendment Foundation to tell them they really should back…
Ohio gun owners who feel the need to temporarily remove firearms from their home will soon be able to turn to gun stores or their local police departments for help. Lawmakers in both the House and Senate have unanimously agreed to allow “any owner of a lawfully possessed firearm or a person authorized by the owner of a lawfully possessed firearm” to store a firearm with a federally licensed firearms dealer or with a law enforcement agency “upon application and agreement.” These voluntary off-site storage measures are, thankfully, becoming increasingly popular in red states as…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump said Thursday he had called off new military strikes on Iran, suggesting progress had been made in talks to end the war just hours after the American leader threatened to escalate the conflict by seizing control of Iran’s oil industry. Trump said in a social media post that he made the move after a breakthrough in negotiations, and that significant points under discussion “have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved.” The announcement came after two days of back-and-forth attacks between the U.S. and Iran had…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. The Fiat Mirage and the Physical Foundation of Wealth The U.S. dollar, once the world’s reserve currency, is rotting from within because the West has lost its productive edge. As I explained in my 2024 interview with Chris Olson, bank profits dropped 44% in late 2023, and the system is straining under the weight of unpayable debt. [1] The simple truth is that paper money is a promise printed on nothing, and promises break when the issuer runs out of strength. Fiat money is just a claim slip on future energy,…
The United States is a major hypocrite when it comes to nuclear weapons. The bone of contention in Iran is supposedly nuclear weapons; however, the US spends more money on nukes than all other countries combined. This new report comes as the US considers deploying some of its nuclear weapons to additional North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member states in Europe, according to a Financial Times [behind a paywall] report last week. The outlet said US officials had discussed expanding the nuclear-sharing arrangement beyond its current participants. In 2025, the spending on nuclear weapons in the US surged by a…
Elon Musk’s rocket company SpaceX is responsible for sending NASA astronauts into space, but recently, there’s been controversy over the company’s responsibility to care for the land back on Earth. After failed rocket launches left debris and environmental damage on federal public land in Texas, the government is now allowing SpaceX to take over that land in an exchange deal. A recent lawsuit from conservation groups and a Native American tribe aims to put a stop to the transaction. The Land and What Happened Since 2014, SpaceX has housed a rocket launching facility near Boca Chica, Texas. The rocket launches…
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…
Congressional leaders unveiled a sweeping bipartisan veterans package Thursday that combines more than 60 separate bills into a single legislative effort, potentially delivering one of the largest expansions of veterans benefits, survivor support and VA reforms in years. The newly introduced Take Care of America’s Veterans Act (H.R. 9237) includes the Major Richard Star Act, the Love Lives On Act, expanded benefits for Gold Star families and catastrophically disabled veterans, reforms to VA health care and community care programs, and measures aimed at improving access to housing and benefits. The package includes more than 60 bipartisan bills negotiated by leaders…
The Democratic Republic of Congo’s Ebola outbreak has just spread to a new health zone. The outbreak has now made its way into the northeastern province of Ituri, authorities said on Wednesday. A health zone in Congo’s healthcare system covers a defined area with a network of clinics and a referral hospital. More than three weeks after the epidemic was declared, these new infections in a new area are “undermining” the ability to prevent the transmission of this Bundibugyo strain of the Ebola virus. The health ministry said Tchomia, about 50 kilometers south of the provincial capital Bunia on the…
Our trio rolled up to the truck with high-hives, hoots, and hollers after a ripping 4,000-foot descent. After cruising up Friendly Giant to Mount Buchanan’s summit and enjoying lunch, we had descended a glorious 90 minutes, including my initiation on Buckshot and High Commander — a couple of my favorite trails of the summer. We were riding outside of Kaslo, British Columbia, and had a road trip to cap off the evening. Fortunately, loading and transporting our electric mountain bikes was easier than ever — even after a big alpine ride — with the VelociRAX 5X Max vertical bike hitch…
Our neighbors to our north and south (and gun control activists here at home) love to blame the Unites States and the Second Amendment for violent crime in their countries, arguing that our right to keep and bear arms is fueling cross-border gun trafficking and arming criminals who would otherwise be unable to get ahold of guns. As investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson reported last fall, most guns traced in Mexico in recent years were actually legally purchased by the Mexican government or political subdivisions before being diverted to drug cartels. Now, an internal report from the…
Police officers spend their careers warning the public not to play around with firearms. Apparently, that message occasionally needs to be repeated in the squad room, too. The Pasadena Police Department has released surveillance video showing a September 2025 incident in which an officer was seriously injured after what Chief Gene Harris described as “horseplay” involving loaded firearms inside a department parking structure. According to the department and reporting from Police1 and ABC 7 Los Angeles, the incident occurred around 6:20 p.m. on Sept. 7, 2025, just before officers were set to begin their shifts. The video shows a patrol…
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…
Competition pistol maker Rideout Arsenal is packing up and heading to Georgia. And according to the company, Virginia’s increasingly hostile political climate toward the firearms industry played a major role in the decision. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp announced this week that Rideout Arsenal will invest $22 million in a new manufacturing facility in Thomasville, creating 120 jobs over the next several years. For a company that just burst onto the scene with one of the most innovative pistols we saw at SHOT Show 2026, that’s a significant move. Another Firearms Company Votes With Its Feet If the story sounds familiar,…
Earlier this month, executives from General Motors and Ford met with President Trump, along with auto dealer and race team legend Roger Penske. The result of what the President called a “great meeting” was almost certainly not what the automakers had in mind. In short, the President told America that “they don’t want people to fix their car.” Of course, they represents automakers, notably GM and Ford in this case, since they were the ones on hand. It’s all in reference to the ongoing Right To Repair movement, which will likely get even more complicated as cars get even more…
Oil prices have once again surged, this time quickly past a sustainable point for most, as the United States strikes multiple targets across Iran. The ruling class at large continues to claim these attacks are in “self-defense” against “unwarranted aggression.” Explosions and impacts were reported across southern and central Iran hours after US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said US Central Command (CENTCOM) “will be busy tonight.” “Because President Trump said we will be hitting Iran hard – and we will be,” Hegseth told reporters. This news comes as the ruling class continues to tell the public that a peace deal…
One of the great pleasures of exploring the backcountry by taking roads less traveled is spending time enjoying the serenity and grandeur of Mother Nature. That time outdoors is enhanced when off-road adventures include camping off the grid in a trailer, protected from the elements and reenergized by a sound night’s sleep. That’s where custom-designed, ruggedly built, off-road teardrop, pop-up tent trailers, and full-bodied campers have become extremely popular over the last decade. Lightweight off-road trailers give owners of smaller vehicles and all-wheel-drive CUVs the ability to camp and enjoy off-grid camping; (photo/Bruce W. Smith) Outdoor explorers of all ages…
