The Concealed Carry Improvement Act (which did nothing to improve concealed carry) was rushed into law by New York Gov. Kathy Hochul after the Supreme Court struck down the state’s “may issue” permitting scheme four years ago. The law has sparked numerous legal challenges to various aspects of the statute, from its ridiculous licensing mandates to the sweeping “gun-free zones” that it imposed. One of those challenges has now reached SCOTUS’s doorstep. Christian v. James takes on New York’s prohibition of lawful carry in all public parks, which was upheld by the Second Circuit in another…
Building a home from the ground up is a dream for many service members and their families. If you need financial assistance, a VA loan for construction could be a good solution. A VA construction loan is a specialized mortgage designed to help eligible military members and veterans finance the construction of a new home. But unlike a standard VA purchase loan, VA construction loans are harder to find. Fewer lenders offer them due to stricter underwriting, additional risk during the building phase, and more detailed oversight requirements. In this comprehensive guide to VA construction loans, we’ll explain how a…
The Second Amendment doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Any infringement on it opens the door to later infringements on other rights, and vice versa. That’s part of what makes the return of gun rights restoration so important in the grand scheme of things. People shouldn’t lose their rights for a lifetime simply because of one misdeed, and while the possibility existed for it before, Leftists did what they could to make it an impossibility. And other rights need to be restored, as noted over at the Washington Examiner.Beyond incarceration, a conviction’s fallout strips individuals of…
A petition to force a vote on the Major Richard Start Act reached 218 signatures on Wednesday, paving the way for a U.S. House vote on the bill. The Major Richard Star Act, introduced in the Senate and House by bipartisan lawmakers in March 2025, would allow certain veterans who suffered combat-related injuries that made them cut their military careers short to receive both military retirement pay and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) disability compensation. The Act is also contained within pending legislation in Congress, the Take Care of America’s Veterans Act, which includes dozens of provisions. The bill has…
Bouillon cubes are a dehydrated broth usually preserved and packaged in a small, block form. They are typically wrapped in foil and kept in a jar for storage. They’re sold in every grocery store and usually find themselves in most home pantries. Some flavors include chicken, beef and vegetable. The primary benefit of any bouillon cube is its ability to add an instant, savory flavor to any recipe. But another benefit that is particularly relevant is its long and stable shelf life. This makes it an ideal addition to any long-term food storage as a dependable and instant flavor enhancer…
Last week, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon warned officials in San Jose, California that if they didn’t take steps to bring down the cost of a concealed carry permit, they could expect a lawsuit. As anticipated, the city hasn’t done squat, and now the Dhillon has followed through with her promise by filing suit.At nearly $1,600 per license, the City’s application fee to carry a firearm is the highest in the nation. Indeed, San Jose’s fee towers over those imposed by the country’s biggest cities. New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, and Chicago all charge a…
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and a spate of progressive prosecutors have sent a letter to the heads of 3D printer makers, including one operating inside the People’s Republic of China, urging the companies to “expeditiously work on a printer-based solution to identifying and blocking the manufacture of all 3D printed firearm parts.” A “printer-based” solution means coming up with an algorithm that would block 3D printers from making any object that could be used to craft a firearm. A new bill that became part of New York’s budget establishes a task force that’s supposed…
Financial hardship and Department of Veterans Affairs-backed mortgages intersect more often than the housing benefit’s reputation suggests. Veterans miss payments for the same reasons anyone does: job loss, medical debt, divorce, a period of reduced income following separation from service. And the consequences of falling behind on a VA mortgage can be serious. As of June 15, 2026, a new option exists for veterans that did not exist before. The VA Partial Claim Program, authorized by the VA Home Loan Reform Act signed by President Trump on July 30, 2025, and formally launched in June, allows mortgage servicers to bring…
The United States and Iran have exchanged several strikes since Friday. These renewed attacks are threatening to upend an already precarious peace deal between the two warring nations. Both sides have accused the other of violating the terms of the agreement signed on June 17th. This is the first time the two warring countries have exchanged strikes since the signing of the interim peace deal. Iran Declares Memorandum of Understanding A “Record of US Failure” Iran has already blasted the US as liars. The “very nature” of the US is to break its promises and treaties, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps…
I do not celebrate mass shootings anywhere in the world. I still remember the feeling of finding out a dear friend had been murdered in one, so even at my worst, that’s something I could never do. When I point out a massacre elsewhere in the world, it’s not to celebrate that it happened there, but to point out that the claim of these being “uniquely American” is bogus. And the latest example was in Stade, Germany, on Monday.A 45-year-old man killed six adults and wounded several others in a shooting attack at a child…
A San Diego-based Marine lost at sea during training exercises last week was identified by Marine officials Monday as a 21-year-old from Minnesota. Lance Cpl. Armando Ortiz Canseco went missing early Thursday from the USS Anchorage and was declared dead Friday following an extensive search spanning 2,400 miles off the Southern California coast, Navy officials said. On Monday, Col. Richard Alvarez, commanding officer of the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, issued a statement offering condolences to Ortiz Canseco’s family and friends. “He earned the title of United States Marine and served his country with honor and commitment,” Alvarez said. “We mourn…
This article was originally published by Garrison Vance at Natural News. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) announced Tuesday, June 23, that Iran and Oman will coordinate a large-scale evacuation of vessels stranded in the Persian Gulf – initiating the first phase of clearing the Strait of Hormuz since the outbreak of war between the U.S./Israel and Iran on Feb. 28. According to the IMO, more than 11,000 seafarers have been trapped on hundreds of ships during the conflict. The agency stated it secured safety guarantees and verified conditions for safe navigation to support the operations. IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez said in a statement,…
As national celebrations ramp up surrounding the United States’ 250th birthday, local American Legion posts are marking the anniversary with a grassroots effort. Known as the American Legion Family USA 250 Challenge, veterans are doing whatever they can to the tune of 250 times to raise money and draw attention to important causes. The Legion is the largest American veterans’ organization, in existence since 1919 and today boasting more than 1.2 million members. One of them is Gulf War veteran and Indiana American Legion Commander Ron Patterson, who took the U.S. birthday in stride and chose to walk 250 miles…

A NATO counter-drone exercise in the Netherlands this past spring offered a glimpse of what military leaders increasingly view as one of the most pressing challenges in modern warfare: how to manage crowded, contested airspace filled with drones, sensors and counter-drone systems operated by multiple organizations and nations. The exercise, known as Technical Interoperability Exercise 2026 (TIE26), brought together roughly 300 participants, more than 60 systems, and dozens of command-and-control applications to test whether counter-drone technologies from different countries and companies could work together in a common operational environment. Among the participants was Airwayz, a defense technology company focused on…
