Marine Corps officer Juan Arce understands the challenges and joys of balancing fatherhood with service. Arce’s and potentially thousands of other single parents can be overlooked in the military community. Author Sacra Durandisse found a way to highlight Arce’s story and bring awareness to other single-parent military households in her children’s book, My Dad Is a Marine: Home Is Where the Hero Lives, released in December 2025. Like most Marines, Arce’s humble nature didn’t lead him to Durandisse. Rather, the author was captivated by his story and approached him as the genesis for the book. “I thought [that] this isn’t…

Federal investigators say former CIA officer David J. Rush accumulated more than $40 million in gold bars, millions of dollars in cash and dozens of luxury watches while allegedly deceiving colleagues, falsifying credentials and exploiting the secrecy of the U.S. intelligence system. The case first appeared to be a government-theft investigation under 18 U.S.C. § 641. Court filings and subsequent reporting now suggest investigators believe Rush may have created a fictitious classified program inside the national security bureaucracy and used it to obtain vast quantities of government funds and precious metals. Rush, a former CIA official who reportedly worked for…

The gun-rights group Gun Owners of America (GOA) is blowing the whistle on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division for revealing sensitive tax and firearm information of a GOA member. According to an April 17 news release, GOA is asking the DOJ’s Office of the Inspector General to investigate what it calls a “a series of alarming breaches in which the government intentionally filed, on a public court docket, the sensitive tax returns of a GOA member, along with details of this person’s private firearm collection.” According to GOA,…
The truth of the matter is that so-called “ghost guns” exist in part because there is a point where something that isn’t a gun becomes a gun. Selling something that’s almost a gun, but not quite, isn’t exactly new. I first bought an AK receiver kit more than 20 years ago, along with a parts kit that would let me put together my very own AK. I loved that gun.Anyway, the whole “ghost gun” thing, at least when it comes to going after dealers, is premised on someone doing something wrong simply because they took…
I’m always on the lookout for coverage of defensive gun uses by local media outlets, so when I ran across a story from KXAN-TV in Austin, Texas headlined “Austin woman chases intruder out of home during ‘terrifying’ invasion,” I was definitely intrigued. The story itself is less about that encounter, though, than the less-than-satisfying response the victim of the home invasion received when she called 911 to report an intruder. It was last fall when Shayla Worley woke up and realized a stranger was in her home. KXAN doesn’t even really describe what Worley did, other than…
This article was originally published by Willow Tohi at Natural News. Israel’s UN ambassador publicly accused France, China, and Pakistan of making secret payments to Iran for safe passage through the blockaded Strait of Hormuz. The accusations stem from reports that commercial vessels from these nations transited the strait despite Iran’s broader shipping restrictions. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical global chokepoint, handling approximately 20% of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas. Iran has selectively allowed passage for some nations’ ships while maintaining a blockade against others, deepening geopolitical fractures. The confrontation at the UN highlights the escalating…
A while back I wrote a post about cooking without power which was really just a list of ways to heat up food–dutch oven, fireplace, grill, etc. But what if your food needs more than just heating? What if the power is out and you want to use the blender, the mixer, the toaster, the waffle maker, the coffee pot, or one of the many other kitchen appliances we tend to take for granted? Fortunately, there are many non-electric alternatives. I suggest you start replacing your kitchen appliances with non-power versions and learn to use them. This way, if the…

It’s easy to look at the gun control laws passed in another state and think, “Well, at least it doesn’t impact me.” I vehemently oppose what’s happened in California over the years, just as I vehemently oppose what’s happened in Virginia in 2026, but since it doesn’t affect me here in Georgia, it’s easy to let it go when the dust settles. The problems really get started when those terrible ideas don’t stay put, but are instead pushed onto the rest of the nation.In other words, remember reading about all of those new Virginia gun…
