The right to keep and bear arms is a natural human right, and it shouldn’t matter where you live. That’s especially true if you’re in the United States, where we at least recognize that right. However, in New York City, law enforcement maintains a pretty aggressive posture toward people who carry firearms. Many of them aren’t carrying lawfully, admittedly, but that’s long been because no one could really carry lawfully. Even after Bruen, New York did what it could as a state to make sure the status quo didn’t change all that much. And so,…

Gun control advocates often claim that the firearm industry enjoys a level of protection that no other industry has. That’s not entirely true, but the exceptions are few. What they fail to understand, though, isn’t that the gun lobby was simply so powerful that it forced lawmakers to extend that protection to them. Instead, it was a reaction to anti-gun groups suing stores and manufacturers over the actions of third parties. Someone shot up a neighborhood with a gun, and they wanted to sue the people who made the gun. So, the Protection of Lawful…
Mexico to Request Criminal Charges Over Deaths Following Fatal Shooting of Houston Man by Ice Agents
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico will request criminal charges over 17 Mexicans who died in ICE custody or during immigration enforcement operations by the Trump administration, officials said Thursday. Mexican Foreign Minister Roberto Velasco’s announcement Thursday morning further escalated tensions with the United States, as Mexico’s government has sharply criticized the treatment of its citizens under U.S. President Donald Trump’s push to increase deportations. The request, which carries no legal weight, will be submitted to state prosecutors’ offices and the U.S. Department of Justice, asking them to consider criminal charges against those responsible for the deaths. It will be accompanied…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream. Massive explosions are being reported all over Iran as the U.S. conducts airstrikes in Iranian territory for a second night in a row. This isn’t exactly a surprise because just hours ago President Trump declared that the ceasefire is “over” and he openly warned that “we’re going to hit them hard again tonight”. Of course, the Iranians have absolutely no intention of backing down. They are reportedly preparing a very large response, and they are considering moves that would definitely take this conflict to the next level.…
There’s a profound difference between lawfare and just trying to correct wrongs. One is all about punishing the other side, regardless of the outcome. The other is about holding authorities accountable when they try to break the law. For example, there was a lawsuit in Bradford County, Florida. I covered the incident at the time. Basically, a sign at the county-owned fairground said that open carry was prohibited. As Florida has preemption, that’s not something they can do. They were asked about it and refused to follow the law, so they got sued.And that did…

A federal judge has ruled that a Long Island couple’s Second Amendment rights were violated after the Nassau County Police Department’s Pistol License Section revoked their permits and ordered them to turn over their firearms after their daughter had expressed thoughts of depression and harming herself with a rope. Even after multiple physicians determined the child wasn’t in danger of harming herself, the police refused to reinstate Dennis and Lisa Wysocki’s licenses, and more than three years after their guns were surrendered the Wysocki’s have yet to get them back. On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge…

Gun sales in Virginia were 241% higher in June than they were one year ago, and Rhode Island sales weren’t far behind, with a 201% increase compared to June, 2025. The National Shooting Sports Foundation reported the staggering figures on Thursday afternoon, with Managing Director of Public Affairs Mark Oliva declaring, “this is what freedom looks like.” Our right to keep and bear arms begins at the gun counter and states like Virginia and Rhode Island chose to throttle the Second Amendment rights of their citizens by ending the legal sale of the most-popular selling centerfire…
Rare Copy of Declaration of Independence Found by UK National Archives in Papers of Captured US Ship
LONDON (AP) — Michael Scurr has been volunteering at Britain’s National Archives for the last 11 years, spending his Thursday mornings painstakingly cataloging documents for the benefit of future researchers. Then one day last May the retired insurance executive made a discovery of his own while sifting through the letters of an 18th-century Royal Navy captain. There, attached to a report on the capture of the American privateer Dalton on Christmas Eve 1776, was an enclosure identified only as “another paper.” Carefully unfolding the document, Scurr stopped when he saw the word “Declaration” printed across the top. “I thought, oh,…
For Andrew Song, joining the military was a byproduct of his upbringing plus a drawing of inspiration from a select group of individuals.

There’s an effort underway in Washington to strengthen military combat casualty care while bolstering national medical readiness. The House Appropriations Committee has taken the first major step toward these goals by including $20 million dollars in legislative funding as part of the final National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) draft making its way through Congress. “We are deeply grateful that the committee has prioritized this investment,” Jonathan Miller, president of RESPOND‑US, told Military.com. “Their leadership makes clear that Congress understands the stakes—that medical readiness is not a luxury, but a war-fighting requirement.” U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 374th Civil…
