In 2023, during an interview, Gabby Giffords actually said, “No more guns.” She said the quiet part out loud, and while it was kind of refreshing, the fact that there was so little backlash, particularly among the anti-gun community that swears they don’t want any such thing, was telling. Now, her organization is close to saying it once again.As May is Asian and Pacific Islander (or API) Heritage Month, it’s not surprising that many people choose this time to talk about their special interest as it relates to this group of Americans. While Gabby Giffords…
This article was originally published by Jacob Thomas at Natural News. President Donald Trump warned he will monitor which companies seek refunds on tariffs the Supreme Court declared illegal, suggesting forgone refunds could earn his favor. Trump called it brilliant if companies like Amazon and Apple avoid seeking refunds, stating, “If they don’t do that, I will remember them.” The Supreme Court invalidated Trump’s global tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, with U.S. Customs and Border Protection launching refunds of $166 billion on April 20. Despite the ruling, Trump has criticized the justices who voted against him and…
Whenever I see the New York Times has published anything having to do with the Second Amendment, I cant help but indulge in a little preemptive eye-rolling. What stupidity am I about to read, and is it worth writing about here at Bearing Arms? Every now and then I’m actually surprised by what I read, and that was definitely the case with a column by Reginald Dwayne Betts entitled “A Gun Derailed My Childhood. As an Adult, I found Relief at the Range.” Betts was sentenced to nine years in state prison in Virginia for committing…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A tenuous ceasefire appeared to be holding Saturday after the United States struck two Iranian oil tankers, while the country that hosts the U.S. Navy’s regional headquarters said it arrested dozens of people it alleged were linked to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. Attacks Friday cast doubt on the month-old ceasefire that the United States has insisted is still in effect. Washington is awaiting an Iranian response to its latest proposal for a deal to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and roll back Tehran’s disputed nuclear program. The U.S. military said Friday that…
In 2020, then 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse found himself in a situation he never should have been thrust into. By that, I don’t blame him, but the rampaging mob that decided to chase a teenager in the middle of a riot. They not only knew he was armed, but one of the mob tried to disarm him during the confrontation, making it clear that Rittenhouse had reason to fear for his life. The reporting of that incident was a journalistic tragedy, though, as many people had very strong opinions as to what happened, all while being very wrong about what…

A24’s upcoming Anthony Bourdain movie, Tony, sounds like the rare biopic designed for someone like me. Bourdain was sharp, restless and self-aware, which makes him easy to admire and hard to dramatize. The wrong movie could flatten him into the usual cradle-to-grave prestige drama: childhood wound, early failure, big break, public collapse, closing title cards. Too many biopics move like museum tours with screenplays, making the person less interesting the harder they try to explain them. But Tony looks like it may be taking the smarter route, as you can see in the trailer below. Instead of trying to cover…

From frozen Teton trailheads to windblown Colorado fourteeners, the best down jackets prove themselves as year-round essentials. Because mountain weather is notoriously fickle, your puffy needs to be light enough for a daypack, warm enough for sub-freezing mornings, and tough enough to handle shifting forecasts. Over the past 10 months, two experts tested 10 products: GearJunkie Senior Editor Chris Kassar and lead tester Ryan Kempfer. The duo logged 100 days and 600 miles skiing the Tetons, hiking Alaska, bagging fourteeners, and braving frigid Yellowstone conditions to confirm how these jackets deliver. In the last five years, eight experts have tested…

Picture this: You are driving home from work, or maybe you are sitting in the living room with your family on a humid spring afternoon. The sky suddenly takes on a strange, bruised green color. The wind stops, and an eerie silence settles in. Then, the distant wail of a warning siren cuts through the quiet. When a tornado is imminent, there is no room for guesswork. You do not have time to scroll through your phone for advice or to debate where to hide. It is hard to know what to do when chaos hits your neighborhood. Panic is…
Synthetic insulated jackets provide reliable warmth when the weather turns sour. Unlike down — which loses its loft and insulating power when soaked — synthetic jackets trap heat even in a downpour and breathe efficiently during high output. Over the past nine months, GearJunkie Editor Chris Kassar and lead tester Ryan Kempfer put 15 synthetic jackets through the wringer. They logged 60 days and 350 miles hiking, skiing, biking, and climbing in Jackson, Wyoming, to find the best options. Throughout the past four years, five testers have worn nearly 50 different jackets to narrow the field. We crowned the Arc’teryx…
I grew up as the skinny kid in class. I was of average height, but as thin as a rail. Because of that, and being a little odd in general, I was the target of a lot of picking on, humiliation, and more than a few acts of violence. I tried to hold my own, but size matters when physical violence occurs, so there was only so much I could do. Which is why I feel like I can speak about why gun rights are important to women, who are smaller, physically weaker, and slower…

For the past five years, Air Force veteran James Bowers has looked to his service dog, Kate, for comfort, care and guidance. Now Bowers is hoping to pay his loyal companion back when she needs it the most. Kate was seriously injured on Tuesday in an accident in a Buc-ee’s parking lot in Texas City, Texas, northwest of Galveston. One of the dog’s legs was severely broken, and the Bowers’ family is asking the public for help to pay mounting veterinarian bills to treat Kate’s injury. Like many accidents, the incident happened quickly. Kate was walking with Bowers’ wife, Nancy,…
