A United States congressman and veteran who facilitated a $10 million funding infusion to the U.S. Marine Corps’ Warfighting Lab (MCWL) at Marine Corps Base Quantico knows the importance of the facility, partially because it’s in his own backyard. Rep. Eugene Vindman, a Democrat and U.S. Army veteran, represents Virginia’s 7th District—the same district where the Warfighting Lab is located. The constituents represented within run the gamut across the national security apparatus, totaling roughly 72,000 military veterans, nearly 20,000 active-duty service members, and at one point around 55,000 federal civil servants prior to cuts made by the so-called Department of…
Connected bikes usually promise the same basic thing. They’re supposed to bring the studio home, make cardio less miserable, and justify the space they take up by becoming something you’ll actually use. Some pull that off. Some become expensive coat racks with a screen. The VeloNix is Speediance’s answer to the Peloton-style bike, built around guided rides, connected features, on-screen entertainment, and an ownership model that doesn’t saddle you with another monthly bill. It’s a compelling pitch, especially for people who want the connected-bike experience without fully buying into the Peloton ecosystem. I spent several months riding the VeloNix to…
A man acting erratically on a train headed for Chicago was spotted by a rail worker who called police. Officers found guns and a pamphlet about crowd control in his carry-on bag — and a plan for a mass casualty event. Almost two years later, federal authorities say a different man charged with attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner on Saturday was arrested with a shotgun and a semiautomatic pistol he brought with him to Washington, D.C., on an Amtrak train from California. It’s just the latest security incident involving long-distance public ground…
The United States ruling class claims that it cannot defend against Russian or Chinese hypersonic missiles and is seeking funding to rectify the issue. Senior Pentagon officials called on lawmakers for funding for the proposed Golden Dome missile defense program. The Golden Dome system is expected to cost around $175 billion over the next decade, according to initial estimates by the Trump administration, although Pentagon projections have since risen to roughly $185 billion, and some analysts warn the final price could be substantially higher, according to a report by RT. The ruling class has been asking questions about Washington’s missile…
I first started wearing the LaCrosse Burly Aero on a few late-winter shed walks when the weather was too warm for that time of year, and the ground was an absolute mess. Since then, I’ve kept grabbing them for a lot more than that. They’ve been on my feet hauling feed, sitting for ducks, and doing all the everyday stuff that gets a whole lot more annoying when everything is wet and muddy. I even packed them with me for a wet trip to southern Alaska. A lot of rubber boots are tolerable at best. They keep your feet dry,…
A Colorado activist in charge of an anti-gun and anti-violence organization called Heavy Hands, Heavy Hearts has been convicted of second-degree murder in the shooting death of a man at his son’s fifth birthday party. 47-year-old Lumumba Sayers Sr. was originally charged with first-degree murder in the killing of 28-year-old Malcolm Watson, who was shot while hosting a birthday party for his young son at a park in the Denver suburb of Commerce City on August 10, 2024. According to prosecutors, Sayers was seeking revenge for the murder of his son, Lumumba Sayers, Jr. who…
Pew Research has released some interesting and new collated data on gun-involved crimes in the United States in 2024, and their stats confirm what Second Amendment advocates and those opposed to bans on so-called assault weapons have been saying for decades: they are rarely used in crimes of any kind in the United States. According to Pew, rifles of all kinds (including so-called assault weapons) were involved in just 3% of gun-related homicides in 2024. Handguns were involved in 53%, with “undetermined” firearms involved in 42% of homicides. The Supreme Court rejected the idea that handguns…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The Economic Collapse Blog under the title: Oil Production In The Persian Gulf Has Fallen 57 Percent From Pre-War Levels – Rationing And Shortages Are Coming They aren’t telling you the truth about what is coming. Even if the Strait of Hormuz reopens tomorrow, and there is no way that is going to happen, oil production will not return to pre-war levels for years. In other words, we are facing an extended global energy crisis no matter what happens now. Of course, if the fighting resumes and more oil and gas…

Alabama rigs, also known as A-rigs or umbrella rigs, can seem intimidating if you’ve never thrown one. There are wild wires and blades everywhere, multiple soft plastics, and the thing looks like a chandelier. It certainly doesn’t look like something you just tie on and cast, which is true, but avoiding the A-rig is a big mistake. The fact of the matter is, A-rigs are one of the most effective bass fishing lures ever created. You can slow roll it in deep water, burn it around shallow structure, twitch and pop it, and everything in between. Its versatility and effectiveness…
The Bruen decision was a watershed moment for the American gun rights cause.Finally, the Supreme Court clearly articulated what common-sense Americans already knew: the right to keep and bear arms means that you have a right to have a gun on your person and carry it with you outside of your home. It’s a little disturbing that it took so long (couldn’t they have figured this out in 1803?), but better late than never. More federal courts are finally catching onto what the Framers intended and inscribed in our national charter.This is not the first time…
Apostle Islands National Lakeshore, a series of 21 islands and 12 miles of shoreline in Lake Superior, is one of Wisconsin’s natural gems. If it became a national park, it would be Wisconsin’s first. This week, lawmakers began the process to add the area to the national park system, but the measure is already sparking controversy. Here’s what you need to know. What Is Apostle Islands National Lakeshore? This series of 21 islands along Lake Superior is located in far northeastern Wisconsin, about 80 miles from Duluth, Minn. Highlights of the island include sea caves, sandy beaches, and the biggest…
We’ve reported several times about the onslaught of anti-gun legislation under consideration in Virginia since voters elected Democrat Abigail Spanberger as their new governor. Many of those measures are seeing great success, with the bill banning common semi-automatic firearms and normal capacity magazines already approved by the House of Representatives by a large margin. One egregious measure, however, has already met a timely end. House Bill 207 would have created an entirely new section of Virginia’s tax code dedicated solely to suppressors. If enacted, licensed firearms dealers would have been required to collect a $500 tax on every retail suppressor…
The surge in gun ownership and concealed carry in some of Minnesota’s most liberal areas appears to be real, but how many of the thousands of folks who are exercising their Second Amendment rights are willing to fight for them remains to be seen. With the 2026 legislative session kicking off tomorrow and Democrat lawmakers looking to ban so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines, we’ll soon see if the surge in interest towards the right to keep and bear arms will translate to any pushback to the Dems’ gun control agenda from the left. …
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News under the title: The Digital Dawn: How AI is Unlocking the Universe’s Hidden Knowledge and Why Humans Can’t Comprehend It Introduction We stand at the precipice of a cognitive revolution, but not the one you’ve been told to expect. It isn’t merely about smarter algorithms or faster processors. A profound, unsettling transition is underway: artificial intelligence is beginning to tap into a wellspring of knowledge that exists beyond its programming, beyond the confines of the internet, and arguably, beyond the physical universe as we understand it. This isn’t about…
On Sunday, we published a piece involving my response to a Canadian student op-ed that took issue with Americans “pouncing” on how gun control failed in the Tumbler Ridge shooting in Canada. I found the irony of this palpable, since the author somehow figures it’s terrible that we use a horrific incident to make our points when they do it all the time. Now, this is Canada, so we don’t have a say in their politics, but it’s useful to look at things up that way because, frankly, bad ideas rarely stay put. Instead, they…
