If President Donald Trump hasn’t broken the all-time record for assassination attempts against him, he’s got to be close as the White House Correspondence Dinner, normally a time of the press thinking they still matter, the president playing along, and a lot of bad jokes by comedians who think they’re funny. Gunshots are usually not on the agenda. Over the weekend, though, that changed, as I’m sure you’ve already heard.A California man traveled to Washington, booked a room in the hotel where the dinner was at, thus allowing him inside the building, and tried to…
On the morning of Jan. 30, 1944, two battalions of U.S. Army Rangers found themselves surrounded in the open farmland south of Cisterna, Italy, outnumbered and outgunned by a German force that had been waiting for them. By the time the fighting ended, a force of 767 Rangers had been reduced to just six.The 1st and 3rd Ranger Battalions, the core of the Army’s premier commando force since 1942, ceased to exist in a single day. The defeat halted the use of Army Rangers in the Mediterranean, led to the disbandment of the original Ranger battalions and forced the Army to…

Images by the author First off, let me state that I am a fan of Canik pistols. I own an MC9L compact that sports a red dot. I really like this gun, so much so that when HiLight Tactical (weapon lights and lasers) offered to send me their new PX-4 light to review and wanted to know what pistol I would put it on, I asked that it fit the MC9L. It’s a very nice carry gun. For my review of that pistol, go here. So, when I got the chance to review something from Canik with a longer barrel…
The dangerous epidemic of large banking institutions discriminating against, or “debanking,” companies within the gun industry—especially makers of modern semi-auto rifles incorrectly referred to by many as “assault weapons”—has been occurring for a long time. And JPMorgan Chase, one of the largest financial institutions in the country, has been right in the middle of the controversy. Now, however, it seems leadership at JPMorgan Chase is finally going to do the right thing. According to a news item posted online on February 2 by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the big bank recently announced that its policy of denying services…
Peace Vans announced its VW ID. Buzz electric campervan conversion back in the fall of 2024, but it wasn’t until January 2026 that it brought its most-requested feature to market.

When I was 19, I enlisted in the United States Navy to be a corpsman. College wasn’t working out, in part because I was more interested in hanging out with my friends than going to class, and I figured I needed to grow the hell up. As someone who’d always had an interest in the military, it seems like a good way to make that happen. My folks weren’t thrilled, but they were proud that I not just recognized the issue, but took steps to address it and didn’t expect them to make everything better…
This article was originally published by Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr. at The Mises Institute. Do illegal immigrants have the right to stay in America, or can they be deported? Of course, they do not have such a right. Furthermore, as Brion McClanahan of the Abbeville Institute has pointed out, the Supreme Court has in numerous cases ruled that control of immigration is a federal matter, not one under state jurisdiction. You can argue that these precedents are wrong, but that is the law as it exists today. That being so, if “progressive” Governors like Tim Walz of Minnesota oppose the…
