Many people assume genocide means mass killing, but that assumption does not reflect the entirety of the law. International law defines genocide more broadly, covering a range of acts carried out with the intent to destroy a protected group, even when direct killing is not the primary method. The Holocaust remains the most widely recognized example, but it represents only one application of a broader legal framework. The Legal Definition of Genocide The modern definition comes from the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, adopted in 1948 after World War II. The United States signed…

Brad Tachi figured that with a decade of military experience, including time as a diver in the Navy, the path toward professional success as a civilian would be relatively smooth. But Tachi received a stark reality check when he spent a year and a half applying for countless jobs and getting next to nothing in return. Then a light bulb turned on for the Navy veteran. His resume was not designed to attract civilian work. More specifically, it wasn’t tailored to the jobs he really wanted. While his military career stood out, the language on his resume was filled with…

U.S. defense officials said Tuesday that U.S. forces have now actively escorted vessels through the Strait of Hormuz and are coordinating the movement of hundreds more ships after Iranian attacks trapped more than 1,500 vessels, and tens of thousands of mariners, in one of the world’s most critical energy corridors. “Project Freedom,” ordered Sunday by President Donald Trump and executed by U.S. Central Command, began May 4 and is aimed at restoring the flow of global commerce in a region transporting roughly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. It involves roughly 15,000 U.S. service members supporting the mission, giving commanders…
Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive, reveals that GTA 6 will launch on consoles before PC because that player base is its core audience. Fans across the world have been hyped since the first trailer for GTA 6 was revealed on December 4, 2023. It quickly became the most viewed non-music video on YouTube in less than 24 hours, with many gamers sharing their excitement for the game on social media. Since then, GTA 6 has received a second trailer and a few delays, with the game now coming out on November 19, 2026. By now, eagle-eyed fans have dissected…
Not living in California, I’m not familiar with Turner’s Outdoorsman as a store. It’s just not something I’m going to come across on the opposite side of the nation, apparently, which is fine. I respect any chain store that’s able to sell guns widely in such an anti-gun state. But it seems the latest would-be Trump assassin got one of his guns at one of the chain’s locations, and that sparked The Trace to spring into action.And by “spring into action,” I mean engage in some alarmism about the chain.Eight months before Cole Tomas Allen…
The ATF just rolled out one of the biggest regulatory shakeups in years: 34 separate rule changes billed as a “new era of reform.” But according to Gun Owners of America (GOA), gun owners shouldn’t celebrate just yet. “There’s some good and then there’s a lot that we’re skeptical about,” GOA said in its initial breakdown of the package. After years of aggressive rulemaking under the Biden administration, this new package is being framed as a reset. GOA agrees, partially. But they’re also warning: without permanent legal fixes, many of these “wins” could disappear overnight. Repeal Rules: Undoing the Damage……
Officials from the United States and Morocco gathered on Tuesday to dedicate the new consulate General Casablanca, promoting the centuries-old relationship between both nations that they hope will prevail for another 250 years. U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau joined U.S. Ambassador to Morocco Duke Buchan III, Moroccan government officials, and embassy and consulate general personnel at the 6.9-acre site in Casablanca’s Casa Anfa financial district to support expanded cooperation on economic growth, security and regional stability, according to a press release issued by the U.S. State Department. Both nations’ allyship goes back to 1777, when Morocco became the…
SWAT officers responded to an emergency situation on Tuesday at the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Systems Center in Natick, Mass., which was later discovered to involve an on-duty officer. Police were called to the facility, known as Natick Labs, at 9:15 a.m. for a possible distressed individual. “This person that we were looking for was an on-duty security officer for the base,” Natick Police Department Chief Jim Hicks said in a news conference. “The officers were working to talk with him, to discuss with him what was going on. He fled the officers into an area of the base, where…
United States ruler Donald Trump is struggling to win over the American civilians. His disapproval rating is now at an all-time high of 62%. In a survey published by the Washington Post on Monday, most Americans are dissatisfied with Trump’s job performance, while his approval stands at just 37%. Trump has repeatedly attacked the outlet, accusing it of publishing “fake” news stories. However, with the War Department’s push toward Christian nationalism, many Americans are feeling like they are sliding into tyranny. Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth Pushes Religion In The Military Opposition to the Iran war is a key factor in Trump’s…
Interior Secretary Doug Burgum’s official hunting and fishing access order is now at the center of a fight over local hunting restrictions in National Park Service units where hunting is already allowed. Burgum signed Secretarial Order 3447 in January 2026, directing Interior agencies to expand hunting and fishing access, remove unnecessary barriers, and ensure consistent policy across department-managed lands and waters. Now, an April 21 internal memo and park-by-park spreadsheet have raised questions about how that order will apply to local hunting restrictions created by park superintendents and land managers. Interior and the National Park Service haven’t publicly posted those…
We still don’t have many details about what happened the first time the Trump administration tried to deliver small arms to resistance groups inside Iran earlier this year, other than the president’s comments that the guns never got to where they were going. Still, President Trump appears to be willing to give it another go, based on remarks he made to Salem Media’s Hugh Hewitt on Monday. “Well, look, the problem is you can’t — if you have five people with a gun, and 250,000 [without], the five people with a gun, assuming it’s used…
A routine Sunday turned into chaos in Garland, Texas and it ended with a father defending his entire family in a split-second decision. According to reporting from Fox 4 Dallas-Fort Worth, a suspect went on a violent spree near Highway 66 and Dairy Road, crashing into multiple vehicles before attempting to carjack a family of eight. That’s when everything escalated. Witnesses say the man was acting erratically, trying to force his way into several vehicles in a nearby parking lot. Surveillance video shows him moving with intent, targeting cars one after another. Then he picked the wrong one. Inside the…
Senate Republicans are pushing a $1 billion White House security plan after a recent assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. The proposal, part of a broader $70 billion Senate package focused on immigration enforcement and law enforcement spending, comes as the administration and GOP lawmakers and right-of-center social media influencers quickly seized on the incident to justify fast-tracking what has been considered a controversial ballroom project. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, released the proposal as part of the broader reconciliation package. “The White House applauds Congress’s latest proposal…
With the onset of warm weather, bears are fully out of hibernation, and that’s already spelling trouble in one of America’s most iconic national parks. On May 4, two hikers sustained injuries from a bear in a popular area of Yellowstone National Park. What Happened According to a press release from the National Park Service (NPS), two hikers were on the Mystic Falls Trail, a well-known hike near Old Faithful. They had an altercation with one or multiple bears, and emergency services personnel responded. Park staff are actively investigating the incident. As a result, staff temporarily closed several areas of the…
The United Kingdom is often touted as having fewer so-called gun crimes than the United States, and that’s evidence we should do something similar. However, when you delve into the details, you see that crime continues not just unabated, but it has increased. The criminals often just used other weapons, which benefited them, but were terrible for self-defense purposes. The UK’s Reform Party, led by Nigel Farage, isn’t popular with the more leftist elements of British politics. That’s probably an endorsement, in my book, but while they’re pretty far-right by UK standards, they’re almost middle…
One of the last truly independent mainstream automakers is having a hard time in 2026. Through the first four months of the year, almost every single Mazda model is selling worse than it was in the same time period in 2025, something that could probably be attributed to the Trump administration’s aggressive tariff tactics. Only one Mazda is built in the United States, the CX-50, and that model (along with the suddenly popular Mazda3 hatchback) is seemingly immune to the company’s sales slump, with much-improved sales this year. Built In Alabama, Made For America Sales of the compact crossover rose…
The head of United States Central Command (CENTCOM), Admiral Brad Cooper, told journalists on Monday that the US military “eliminated” a small Iranian naval force in the region. Iranian military officials have already said that the US is lying about these claims. Cooper claimed that the US military sank at least six Iranian boats, boasting of “an enormous amount of capability and firepower concentrated in and around the strait, including AH-64 Apache and MH-60 Seahawk helicopters.” “The US claim regarding the sinking of a number of Iranian combat boats is a lie,” a senior Iranian military official told IRIB news agency, as…

Assistant Attorney General and head of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division Harmeet K. Dhillon told Denver officials that the city would face a federal lawsuit unless they ceased enforcing the city’s ban on so-called assault weapons, and she’s followed through with that threat in federal court. Promises made, promises kept. The DOJ just sued the City of Denver over their AR-15 ban. pic.twitter.com/4TrDTFVDG1— Hannah Hill (@hannahhill_sc) May 5, 2026The lawsuit not only claims that Denver’s gun ban violates the Second Amendment, but that the pattern and practices of the Denver Police Department in enforcing the…
