Patrick “Tate” Adamiak is rotting in a prison cell he never should have seen the inside of. He was charged with multiple weapons violations, and in every case, the charge is bogus. This isn’t a case of there being nuance that, as a Second Amendment advocate, I’m inclined to view differently than prosecutors. This was a case of a young man being charged for violating laws that he simply did not violate. And the fact that he’s still in prison after all we know is one of the greatest injustices I know of.The ATF did…

Ultralight gear has exploded in popularity among backpackers. Hikers want to go further, faster, with less weight, and brands are meeting the demand with cutting-edge ultralight innovations in backpacks, sleeping bags, pads, pillows, tents, water filters, and more. However, when you see the price tags of some of the equipment and the lengths people go to cut ounces, it’s easy to get turned off to the whole idea. It doesn’t have to be that way, though. For backpackers, going ultralight is easier (and less expensive) than you might expect. We stepped back to drum up some easy tips, tricks, and…
There’ve been enough assassination attempts against President Donald Trump–not just a couple of guys talking smack in a Waffle House, mind you, but real attempts–that it’s getting kind of sad. The fact that none of these guys are time travelers, though, makes me feel a lot better. (IYKYK) But the latest wasn’t at some speech in a field, or on a wide-open golf course. It was a hotel ballroom where the bad guy got surprisingly close, though not close enough, thankfully.While the Secret Service is facing renewed scrutiny over its handling of security, the laws…
WASHINGTON (AP) — David Venturella, a former executive at a private prison operator, will serve as the acting head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Trump administration says, after the agency’s current leader steps down at the end of the month. A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security said late Tuesday that Venturella would succeed Todd Lyons, who led the agency through much of the administration’s tumultuous crackdown on immigration. ICE did not immediately respond to an email seeking additional information Wednesday. Venturella left the Geo Group in early 2023 and has been working at ICE leading the…
Israel has stepped up its “brutal bombardment” of southern Lebanon. Despite a United States-brokered ceasefire, Lebanese officials have reported that nearly ninety people have been killed in strikes since Friday. Thirty-nine people were killed on Saturday alone, after Israel struck 22 towns and villages in southern Lebanon. This is not the first time that it has been clear that the ceasefire may as well not even be in effect. Neither side appears to be following it. Israel Continues Strikes On Lebanon, Despite Ceasefire Accoridng to RT correspondent Steve Sweeney, local authorities said 39 people were killed on Saturday alone after…
Isometrics are strength training exercises that focus on building strength through muscle contractions instead of movement. Exercises such as plank poses are common core-strengthening and military testing exercises that are examples of isometric exercises. The question is when and where in a routine you should add them. Here is the question from a reader about when and where in a routine you should add them: Stew, is there a place for isometric movements to supplement weightlifting and TRX exercises? Thanks, Craig Craig, great question. The answer is yes: You should add isometric exercises to your workout plans to improve strength,…
World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has claimed that the world may experience more cases of Hantavirus. “We might see more cases” of the deadly Andes strain of hantavirus emerge in the coming days, after an eleventh case was recorded, he said. “At the moment, there is no sign that we are seeing the start of a larger outbreak, but of course the situation could change and, given the long incubation period of the virus, it’s possible we might see more cases in the coming weeks,” Ghebreyesus said at a press conference in Madrid on Tuesday.

A 24-year-old Philadelphia man who’s attracted a minor following on Instagram for openly carrying an AR-style pistol through the streets of the City of Brotherly Love is now facing felony charges after an arrest for illegally transferring a firearm. Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner, who’s been criticized for what many see as his lenient treatment of violent criminals, appears to be throwing the book at Kobe Artis.

The U.S. Ski & Snowboard Team (USSS) will have a fresh line of gear when it hits the slopes at the next Olympic Games. The North Face (TNF) announced an 8-year partnership today as the official performance apparel sponsor of the USSS.

BEIJING (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump arrived in Beijing on Wednesday for his hotly anticipated talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the Iran war, trade and U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. The meat of the summit doesn’t start until Thursday, when the leaders hold bilateral talks, visit the Temple of Heaven, where Chinese emperors once prayed for bumper crops, and take part in a formal banquet. But the Chinese offered Trump a pomp-filled welcome, literally rolling out the red carpet for him after Air Force One landed in the Chinese capital. The president was greeted by Chinese Vice…
For well over a year, any gun owner who lawfully carried into Jacksonville’s city hall had their name, birthday, and type of gun collected and kept in a logbook in blatant violation of Florida law, which forbids cities from establishing any kind of registry of gun owners. The practice was flagged by a Jacksonville resident, but after an investigation State’s Attorney Melissa Nelson declined to file criminal charges after concluding that the list was not maintained in knowing or willful violation of state statute. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier says ignorance of the law cannot excuse…
General Motors is shelling out for selling your data.

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — More than 100 Russian drones targeted areas of Ukraine on Wednesday, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said, hours after another barrage of civilian areas killed at least eight people. “Russia continues its strikes and is doing so brazenly — deliberately targeting our railway infrastructure and civilian sites in our cities,” Zelenskyy said in a post on X. Moscow’s attacks on its neighbor are unrelenting, even as Ukraine is emboldened by its recent military accomplishments and as U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin said — without providing evidence — that the 4-year-old war could be approaching…

Future Optek CEO Matthew Pohl is building mixed-reality glasses designed to let a shooter see an aiming point without looking directly through a traditional optic. In an interview with Military.com at eMerge Americas, Pohl described the company’s core concept as glasses that display a reticle, or red dot, inside transparent lenses while accounting for the position of the user’s head and weapon. The goal is to let a user see where the weapon is pointed without forcing the shooter to align their eye behind a sight, look through a video feed, or use a laser that could reveal their position.…
