Veteran Shawn Harris spent four decades in the military and has his sights on a new mission: representing Georgia residents in the United States Congress.The retired Army brigadier general is looking to pull a major political upset in less than a week as he faces off against Republican Clay Fuller in a runoff election to replace discontented Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. She resigned from Congress on Jan. 5, 2026, following a public feud with President Donald Trump for reasons associated with the lack of releasing the Epstein files, among other differences in opinion.Either Harris or Fuller, a Trump-endorsed district…

I spent years overseeing the guard force security contract at the embassy in Baghdad. I know this 100+ acre compound well, and I know exactly what it means to rely on its defensive systems. There has been a recent shift in the security landscape that every preparedness-minded person needs to pay attention to. Recently, Iranian proxies launched a drone and rocket attack on the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad. One of this world’s most critical and heavily fortified diplomatic facilities isn’t just another localized target. It signals a major change in how warfare and terrorism are conducted—and it has direct ripple…
When Vortex flew me out to Wisconsin for their Media Summit last December, the new Strike Eagle 1-10×24 FFP immediately stood out as one of the “must-haves” for the upcoming year. Right alongside the far more exotic (and far more expensive) AMG 1-10×24 FFP, the budget version is also worth considering if you’re looking to extend your range. Although every Media Summit is a surprise, a 1-10×24 FFP felt like the natural next step for the Strike Eagle family. It has the same approachable, average Joe price bracket, but with a feature set that clearly targets buyers who have done…
For just over the last decade annually during the National Rifle Association Annual Meeting there’s been a woman’s brunch. 2026 is no different and all women are welcomed to attend. The National Rifle Association Annual Meeting is approaching. Each year the Association has their annual members’ meeting and it’s paired with an event-packed exposition. Attendance for NRA members is free, but you can get a three-day pass for $35.00 if you’re not a member. Aside from an exhibitor hall, with over 500 vendors and companies, there’s a number of special ticketed events. The Woman’s New…
This article was originally published by Micahel Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog. Most of the pre-packaged garbage that we are being sold in our local grocery stores is “Frankenstein food”, but even though this is widely known, most of the general population just keeps gobbling it down anyway. This is something that I have been wanting to write about for quite some time. The major food companies fully understand that they are destroying our health, and they are going to keep on doing it because nobody is going to stop them. We are talking about a crime against humanity…
On Jan 20., 2025, President Trump issued an executive order that could profoundly affect public lands. “Unleashing American Energy” mandated that the government explore energy production on federal land to achieve American energy independence. A few months later, he issued another order. “Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production” directed the Department of the Interior (DOI) to prioritize energy and mineral production on federal lands. Since those orders, the federal government has sought to economically develop national monuments, wildlife refuges, and wilderness areas, sparking backlash. A recent report from The Wilderness Society (TWS), a conservation nonprofit, identified the landscapes most…
Most of tend to think of soft-on-crime judges and prosecutors as a blue state phenomenon, but the truth is that these ideologues can be found in even the most crimson of red states. The damage done by allowing violent felons to quickly return to the streets after a slap on the wrist is incalculable, but it certainly appears like this philosophy is at least partly to blame for the death of a Louisiana man. The shooting death happened on Monday night, and in addition to the fatality two other individuals were wounded. Authorities have arrested…

I’m a history buff, but there’s an awful lot of history out there, and absolutely no one knows all of it. Not only are the historians constantly learning new stuff, but there are a lot of things people just don’t bring up that often, so regular schmucks like me don’t pick up on it unless we are actually searching something out. So, I appreciate Ammoland’s Dean Weingarten teaching me a little something about FDR’s time.My school textbooks were all about the Great Depression and World War II when talking about that particular Roosevelt. It didn’t…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. Trump’s Newfound ‘Peace’ is a Desperate, Empty Ploy I believe we are witnessing the final, gasping act of a failed presidency. Just this week, after weeks of a brutal, unnecessary war launched jointly with Israel against Iran, Donald Trump has suddenly begun speaking of ‘very good and productive conversations’ for a ‘complete and total resolution’ of hostilities [1]. To anyone paying attention, this is not diplomacy; it is a panicked, face-saving maneuver by a leader who has catastrophically miscalculated. The media’s eager framing of potential talks is a narrative designed…
Just when you thought the water bottle craze had died down, here comes something completely different. First, YETI made every tumbler heavier than a tire iron. Then, VSCO girls and their Hydro Flasks turned bottles into fashion accessories. And most recently, everyone went bananas for Stanley’s Quencher because it had a straw in it. But right when things started to mellow out, an email pops into my inbox with the subject, “Introducing the Ferrari of water bottles!” OKAPA, a California-based startup, justifies the claim with a combination of precision engineering and superior materials — of course, the $300 price tag is…
After the Bondi Beach terror attack last December, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was quick to announce plans for a national gun “buyback”, along with new restrictions on the types of arms that would be available for sale and prohibiting non-native Australians from owning firearms. Rather than a federal compensated confiscation scheme, Albanese and the federal government wanted states to take the lead. The feds would provide half of the funds, but it would be up to state government and law enforcement to come up with the rest of the money, as well as actually…
Raide Research has only been around for a few years, and its products are making waves. The brand keeps hitting home runs — from its TourTech Bibs, to its ice-axe compatible LF 2L waist pack, and, of course, its cult classic LF 30 and 40L backpacks. It hasn’t missed the mark yet. That’s why GearJunkie got so excited to see that this month, Raide launched a completely new pack, built for the biggest and gnarliest backcountry and alpine missions. The EX 55L ($549) is the brand’s first expedition pack. Like its other equipment, it’s bombproof, made with the highest-quality materials…
To hear the urban elite tell it, the problem in our country is that there are just too many guns. We need to curtail that, to discourage people from exercising their right to keep and bear arms, and make it so that only certain, approved parties have firearms lawfully. It’s funny how they keep saying it despite the fact that we’ve got more gun ownership than ever before, more people carrying guns than ever before, and violent crime is down over the last few years. Weird.Yet it is an unfortunate fact that horrible things do…
Iran has listed a new condition before ending the war with the United States. Tehran is seeking full sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. This has not been on Iran’s list prior to yesterday, and Donald Trump, the U.S. president, has told other ruling classes to head to the waterway and just take the Strait of Hormuz. Trump Threatens to Take Tehran’s Oil as Iran Says U.S. Proposal Is “Unrealistic” The narrow waterway through which a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) ordinarily passes has emerged as the Islamic Republic’s most potent weapon. And it is now…
Mark it on the map. A new 2027 Volkswagen Atlas has just been unveiled at the New York International Auto Show. This VW gets smoother sheet metal, a new engine, and new in-cabin tech. All that also comes with the same large interior space and more standard features than before. Atlas Gets Smoother, Fancier for New Year (Photo/Volkswagen) The Atlas is VW’s largest SUV, and it’s a big deal for the brand on the sales sheet as well. The company isn’t rocking that boat, so the 2027 Atlas is all-new but also familiar. The body is the same shape, but…
Thanks to a quirk in federal law, for nearly a century it’s been illegal to use the United States Postal Service to ship “pistols, revolvers, and other firearms capable of being concealed on the person,” even though long guns can be mailed with no issue. In January of this year, though, the DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel issued a formal opinion stating the ban violates the Second Amendment. According to the OLC:Although this statute does not prohibit the shipment of concealable firearms by private companies, major express services currently forbid all persons from shipping firearms,…
