The Waco disaster is one of a handful of cases there the federal government has shown it cannot be trusted blindly by anyone. It became a rallying cry, much like Ruby Ridge, and not without reason. The feds screwed the pooch, and people were killed who didn’t need to be killed. They did it. But after Waco, the ATF supposedly learned. We wouldn’t have another situation like that ever again.Only, we did.Brian Malinowski ran the airport in Little Rock, Arkansas.He had a good job, a loving family, and a hobby of selling guns. It wasn’t…
This article was originally published by Olivia Cook at Natural News. Research published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health examines the potential effects of early exposure to ethylmercury (thimerosal) and aluminum in vaccines on infant brain development and immune function. Babies, especially premature and low-birth-weight infants, may be more sensitive to these substances due to their rapidly developing nervous and immune systems. Animal studies suggest that ethylmercury and aluminum can affect brain chemistry, learning, and memory, with some research indicating gender-based differences in susceptibility. Thimerosal and aluminum have been linked to allergic reactions, inflammation, and rare conditions like macrophagic myofasciitis…
An adult female black bear has been lethally removed from Yellowstone National Park after becoming conditioned to human food, marking the first bear euthanized in the park for this reason in 5 years. According to a press release from the National Park Service (NPS), the bear first caught the attention of Yellowstone staff on June 7 when it crushed an unoccupied tent at a backcountry campsite near Blacktail Deer Creek. The aggressive behavior continued, and on July 11, the same bear successfully accessed and consumed campers’ food, even though it was properly secured on the provided storage pole. Due to…
The Impossible isn’t the kind of movie you watch casually. It starts with a sense of calm, lets you settle in—and then shatters everything. The film doesn’t build tension—it delivers it. The tsunami hits hard, early, and without fanfare. And from there, things get real—real quick. You don’t follow a plot—you follow a family who is grinding their way through a disaster. And because the story is true, the coincidences don’t feel like fiction. Naomi Watts does an excellent and believable job of getting pummeled by the tsunami. Tom Holland and Ewan McGregor bring intensity and grit to this realistic…
Every state is run just a little bit differently. In Florida, they have a position of Chief Financial Officer, which is something you normally hear of in a corporation versus a state government. Basically, it’s the state treasurer, comptroller, etc, all rolled into one.And Florida Governor Ron DeSantis needed to appoint someone to that role. On Wednesday, he made an announcement of his pick, and it was one that many pro-gunners in the state are thrilled with..@GovRonDeSantis pro-gun pick for Florida’s Chief Financial Officer is solid.Anti-gunners want @JoeGruters in that office, he voted in favor…
United States President Donald Trump seems to want to both start a bunch of wars and get a Nobel Peace Prize. He’s actively threatening tariffs while agreeing to arm Ukraine and giving Moscow an ultimatum. But Trump probably shouldn’t be too concerned. It isn’t like Nobel Peace Prizes are awarded to those who actually seek peace anyway. Remember, Barack “drone bomber” Obama received one. In fact, Obama dropped over 26,000 bombs without congressional approval. So Trump should have nothing to worry about. The current ruler is arming Ukraine and gave a weak “ultimatum” to Russia, basically resulting in Russia laughing…

The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has once again ruled that a New York official who pressured companies to end their relationships with the National Rifle Association is immune from a civil suit over her actions, more than a year after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the organization had “plausibly alleged” that then-New York Department of Financial Services head Maria Vullo violated the First Amendment by “coercing regulated entities to terminate their business relationships with the NRA in order to punish or suppress gun-promotion advocacy.” In their ruling last May, the Court overturned a…
I confess that I don’t really understand the crossover between the right to keep and bear arms and the enjoyment of a fresh cup of joe, but after the success of Black Rifle Coffee Company there’s no shortage of similar Second Amendment-supporting brands. Most of those companies have focused on beans and coffee grounds that can be purchased online and shipped to your home, but one Marine veteran in Georgia is blending his love of guns and coffee with a new range and coffee shop that he hopes will catch on with his local community……
This article was originally published by Rhoda Wilson at The Exposé. Despite Bill Gates attempting to claim a Dutch court has no jurisdiction over him, the court case against him and 16 other defendants went ahead on Wednesday. Two lawyers were representing seven vaccine-injured claimants: Arno van Kessel and Peter Stassen. In June, the day after submitting documents for the initial proceedings, van Kessel was arrested and taken away blindfolded by a team of semi-military police. He is still being held in the Netherlands’ highest-security prison. So, on Wednesday, Stassen represented the 7 claimants on his own. Speaking after the hearing,…
The best hunting pants are not just about the camo. A great pair of hunting pants matches the environment in which you choose to pursue wild game. Rain pants don’t make sense in the desert, but are vital in the Pacific Northwest. Insulated pants might work for a late-season elk hunt, but would likely be too hot for the rut. Below are top choices that cover a wide variety of needs. These are the pants that my fellow GearJunkie editors, I, and our hunting partners wore in the field last season. They’re the hunting pants we’ll wear again this year.…
The Second Amendment is the only constitutionally protected right that stops at the border of the state where you live. In Virginia, where I live, I don’t need a government-issued permission slip to keep a gun in my home or in my glove box, but if I drive across the border into Maryland without first unloading and securing that handgun, I can be charged with a crime. Even if I possess a valid carry Virginia carry license, states don’t have to recognize it. That’s the case in New Jersey, where no permits other than those…
Casualty evacuation, frequently referred to as CASEVAC, is one of the most physically and mentally grueling tasks faced by military personnel. There is nothing quite like adding an “injured man drill” to an already long and exhausting training day to challenge the will of your team. CASEVAC tests every facet of physical strength and endurance, as well as team cohesiveness, leadership and communications. There are reasons why we practice this type of drill: when it happens for real, you must know how to bring your A-game to a highly stressful event, even when you’re exhausted.Whether faced with extracting a wounded…
Is a war going to expand rapidly and engulf the world like a wildfire? Two separate headlines may offer some insight into what could be happening regarding the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Not to mention that the United States just recently said it will resume supplying military aid to Kiev, after claiming its stockpiles of weapons were low. The Ukrainian ruler, Volodymyr Zelensky, said that Ukraine is preparing for a visit by US presidential envoy Keith Kellogg and will “work with partners on arms deliveries and scaling up joint production of essential defense assets.” Zelensky also just threatened to…
It took one week for a naturally occurring wildfire at Grand Canyon National Park to grow from a low-level threat to a full-on disaster. On July 4, a lightning strike ignited a wildfire on the North Rim of Grand Canyon National Park. A few days later, park officials said they were “monitoring” the 10-acre blaze, and would manage it as a controlled burn to “maintain a healthy, resilient landscape in the fire-adapted ecosystem of the North Rim.” The blaze, named the Dragon Bravo Fire, spiraled out of control. A week from the initial lightning strike, authorities switched to active suppression,…
Nissan’s Leaf has just gone through a bigger transformation than a tree leaf getting ready for fall. For the brand, it’s a risk, it’s an opportunity, and for the head of the project, it’s a chance to shine. I spoke with Giovanny Arroba, VP of Nissan Design Europe and the lead in the design of the 2025 Leaf. He talked about what went into making the Leaf a crossover, making it as sleek as possible, and about the details that the company has hidden for you to find. After 15 Years, the Nissan Leaf Turns Into a Crossover With nearly…
Does the federal law prohibiting “unlawful” users of drugs from possessing firearms fit within the national tradition of gun ownership? It’s a question that’s split federal appeals courts, and today the Third Circuit issued what’s best described as a split decision on the issue. Erik Harris was convicted for purchasing and possessing guns even though he admitted to habitually using marijuana. Harris challenged his conviction on Second Amendment grounds, arguing that Section 922(g)(3) violates the right to keep and bear arms and is unconstitutionally vague.Today, a three-judge panel on the Third Circuit held that “history…
Ruler Donald Trump is now mulling yet another military aid package for Ukraine. This would be his first major “assistance” package to the country since taking office in January, CBS News reported on Saturday, citing sources. The United States has gone back and forth on its desire to aid Ukraine in a losing war, while Russia maintains that help from the West will not do anything but prolong the inevitable and increase the death toll. After Suspending Weapons Shipments to Ukraine, Trump Pivots AGAIN If you have that feeling of whiplash with regard to the U.S. supplying Ukraine with weapons,…
Looking for hiking shoes that don’t feel like boots or cost as much? That was the exact gear gap I was trying to fill. I didn’t need full ankle support or the stiffness of traditional hiking boots, but trail runners weren’t cutting it either. They lacked structure, didn’t hold up to rough terrain, and many were too pricey for me. I wanted something in between: supportive but not stiff, breathable but rugged, comfortable enough for long days, without blowing my gear budget. That’s where the Merrell Women’s Moab 3 Hiking Shoes come in. They’re low-cut hiking shoes with the soul…
There’s a thing in the Army called hip-pocket training. It’s training, usually at the noncommissioned officer (NCO) level, that can be done with little notice or preparation — normally in 15- to 30-minute blocks. The Army Field Manual 7-0 formalized the process and even set specific responsibilities of the commander, first sergeant and lower NCOs for the planning and implementation of hip-pocket training.The historical tradition is much less formal, with sergeants basically just grabbing their troops when they’ve found themselves with downtime for short training blocks. That could be quizzing your team on the basics of field sanitation or going…
