Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadUnless you’ve been taking a break from current events, you’re aware that the U.S. and Israel have launched a campaign of attacks against Iran, including the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader, and Shia Cleric, Ali Hosseini Khamenei, which, as expected, prompted Iran to launch missile attacks at a number of Middle Eastern countries. That is prompting a variety of reactions in return. For many, especially in the in-tune-to-dangerous-times prepping community, there’s an unsettled feeling, maybe a worry-induced knot in our stomach, or something else that warns us this latest conflict could carry dangerous second-…
Glaring war hawk, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, has emphatically rejected the United States and Iran’s calls to cease military operations in Lebanon. The minister added that Israel can “achieve results if Lebanon is our playground.” In spite of a ceasefire agreement, which amounted to a surrender to Iran by the US, Israel has continued to strike targets in Lebanon, it says, that are linked to the terrorist group Hezbollah. Ben-Gvir has stated clearly that Israel will not and “cannot agree to a ceasefire in Lebanon,” and US President Donald Trump should be aware of this. Ben-Gvir further described…
A maintenance worker employed by the city of Las Vegas is behind bars and facing murder charges after allegedly shooting and killing a co-worker earlier this month, and the Las Vegas Review Journal says the murder of 41-year-old Joey McLean would “likely” not have happened were it not for the city’s handling of the months-long feud between the pair. What’s remarkable about the paper’s stance is that the editor’s aren’t pointing the finger at a city policy that allows many municipal employees to lawfully carry on the job, so long as they possess a valid carry…

The Second Amendment Foundation and Firearms Policy Coalition notched a big win for the Second Amendment rights of young adults in a case called Reese v. ATF, but the federal judge in Louisiana who concluded that the federal law banning licensed sales of handguns and handgun ammunition to law-abiding 18-to-20-year-old adults violates the Second Amendment only granted relief to a very narrow subset of that age group; only those members of the plaintiff organizations who were members when the judge issued his ruling, and only those living within the geographic borders of the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. …

Prepare for much more pain at the pump. The United States has started its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. Ships are now all barred from entering or exiting Iranian ports in the Strait of Hormuz by the U.S. Navy. The U.S. says that it is attempting to ratchet up pressure on Iran to reopen the key oil route after peace negotiations collapsed. The U.S. and Iran have agreed to a two-week ceasefire, which Tehran says the U.S., via Israel, has already violated. Trump Threatens to Blockade The Strait of Hormuz “We can’t let a country blackmail or extort the world, because that’s what they’re…
Taurus is stepping into a new lane. The company just dropped the RPC, its first dedicated entry into the 9mm PDW (personal defense weapon) category, and it’s clearly aimed at shooters who want something compact but still configurable. At a glance, the RPC checks a lot of familiar boxes for this space. You’ve got a 4.5-inch threaded barrel, a full-length Picatinny rail up top, and an M-LOK handguard for adding lights, grips, or whatever else fits your setup. It feeds from 32-round 9mm magazines, which puts it right in line with other PDW-style platforms built for capacity and control. But…
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.Those are the words. Any fair reading of this should make it abundantly clear that the Founding Fathers saw the right to keep and bear arms as belonging to the people. This is the basis of the argument that the Second Amendment protects an individual right. Well, that and the fact that literally every other part of the Constitution that protects a right protects an individual right, and when it applies to the…
RALEIGH, N.C. — An Army veteran accused of revealing classified information about an elite commando unit — members’ names, tactics and a unit alias among them — to a journalist and on social media will be released awaiting a possible trial, a judge ruled Monday.Courtney Williams, 40, who is charged with four counts of communicating and disclosing national defense information about a “special military unit” at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, after working for it as a civilian, appeared in federal court in Raleigh.U.S. Magistrate Judge Brian Meyers agreed to release Williams, who was arrested last week and wore a striped…
This article was originally published by George Ford Smith at The Mises Institute. Teddy Roosevelt would be so pleased if he could see the world today, with a US military presence virtually everywhere on the planet. The current savagery with Iran is only the headline conflict—having displaced the proxy missions in Ukraine and Gaza—but many more are quietly underway or waiting in the wings. No declaration of war, of course, since declarations require Congress to act in accordance with a set of rules nobody can agree on. In war, according to Sun Tzu, if the goal is victory, the only rule is winning as quickly as…
Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger chose not to sign a sweeping gun and magazine ban into law on Monday, instead opting to send the legislation and several other gun control bills back to the General Assembly with proposed amendments. If those amendments are adopted by the Democrat majority in the House and Senate bills will still take effect on July 1, 2026, but the move gives Spanberger and Democrats the opportunity to avoid headlines like “Governor Bans Guns” a week before a statewide referendum on redistricting that could give Dems a 10-1 advantage in Virginia’s congressional representation. …
Surviving a tough event—whether it was a physical and mental struggle, even a sudden job loss, a health scare, or something bigger—is only the first part. The real victory comes afterward, when you put yourself back together in a way that leaves you stronger and more capable than before. I’ve been through my share of tough spots, physically and mentally banged up from deployments where things got hectic, to personal losses that flattened me like a steamroller. I’ve been fired, lost friends and family, failed to save the lives of others, been injured and medevaced, and dealt with the long-term…
World War II veteran Glenn Fisher has lived a long, rewarding life. He’s set to turn 100 later this year. However, something very important is missing – the Purple Heart Fisher he earned 80 years ago. Fighting with the Army along Europe’s Rhine River in 1945, Fisher was struck by shrapnel, with a piece breaking off and staying in his body for decades. Wounded in combat, Fisher figured he would receive his Purple Heart sometime after World War II. It never arrived. Fisher applied for the medal about 45 years ago but never received a response from government officials. He made another…
