Colorado was one of the first states in the nation to legalize marijuana for recreational use. Sure, it’s still illegal at the federal level, but Denver now gets called the Mile High City for completely different reasons. However, because it’s still illegal at the federal level, those who use it in compliance with state law are still prohibited from lawfully owning a firearm. This is a measure that’s being challenged, but until the Supreme Court rules on it one way or the other, there’s going to be some tension over this.That’s especially true in Colorado,…

Both the United States and Russia are seeking to resolve the New START nuclear treaty issue diplomatically. The now-expired nuclear reduction deal is getting a new boost, and it’s happening alongside peace talks. Moscow and Washington are working on a deal to continue the New START nuclear reduction treaty, Axios reported on Thursday, citing three sources familiar with the issue. The Strategic Arms Control Agreement officially expired on February 5. Not only are the two nuclear superpowers working to generate another treaty, but both have also agreed to continue to follow the current treaty even after its expiration. According to…

National parks are among the nation’s most beloved treasures. With locations stretching from remote Alaska wilderness to an urban downtown, their popularity varies, and many of these 63 parks experienced major changes in visitation last year. Some of them saw massive jumps in visitors, while others took a nosedive, based on preliminary data released by the National Park Service (NPS) last month. GearJunkie crunched the numbers to figure out the biggest outliers and trends. Here are the main takeaways from 2025’s stats, and what you need to know if you’re planning a national park trip this year. The Overall Gist…

We’ve been covering a lot of gun control bills here at Bearing Arms in recent weeks, but we haven’t written nearly as much about pro-2A legislation. It’s not that we’re uninterested. Far from it, as a matter of fact. It’s just that right now the gun control lobby is in overdrive, and we’re honestly just not seeing as much action on the pro-2A side.  Part of that is because most red states already have pretty good gun laws. 29 states have adopted constitutional or permitless carry laws, for example, and that seems to be ceiling for…

Pro skiers and snowboarders and up-and-comers alike will descend upon Jackson Hole next week for Kings & Queens of Corbet’s.

Lindsey Vonn successfully completed her Olympic training run on Friday, Feb. 6, securing her place in the Women’s Olympic Downhill Race on Sunday. The news comes less than a week after the 41-year-old world champion ski racer crashed at an event in Switzerland, tearing her left ACL and sustaining meniscus damage and a bruised bone. Despite the setback, Vonn remains determined to compete at Milano–Cortina — likely her final Olympic Games. It’s the latest in news in a career defined by setbacks and comebacks. But this feels different, given it’s the same injury that shuts down most pro athletes for an…

Connecticut residents looking to buy a handgun for self-defense (or other lawful purposes) may soon find their options limited, thanks to a bill introduced by Gov. Ned Lamont on Thursday.  Governor’s Bill 5043 looks to prohibit the manufacture and sale of “convertible pistols.” Much like the California law that has widely been drescribed as a Glock ban, Lamont’s legislation defines a “convertible pistol” as “any semiautomatic pistol with a cruciform trigger bar that can be readily converted by hand or with a common household tool into a machine gun solely by the installation or attachment…

We cover anti-gun state legislatures and the dozens of gun-control measures filed across the nation to the point that it is easy to forget there are just as many pro-gun states as there are anti-gun. A good reminder of that fact is Missouri, where Republicans in the Show Me State legislature are pushing a number of measures to ease unconstitutional restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms. One such measure, HB 2176, which was heard in committee on January 25, would prevent state from ever enforcing a so-called “red-flag” law, even though no such law currently exist in…

This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream.  Has anyone ever been more connected than Jeffrey Epstein? That is a serious question. Personally, I have never heard of anyone who has spent more time socializing with the rich and famous than Epstein. We are told that he was some sort of financier, but in reality, he seemed to spend almost all of his time hanging out with his elitist friends. Prior to being convicted, Jeffrey Epstein was a pillar of the New York social scene. Everyone wanted to know him, and that included…

We’ve talked a lot about Jeanine Pirro and her, at best, ill-advised comments regarding arresting people who come into DC with guns. Yes, she walked it back, but while I don’t think she’s going to get fired for anything, she also didn’t really make anyone feel better with her walkback comments. For this to come in the immediate aftermath of the Trump administration’s comments about Alex Pretti carrying a firearm and how it meant he was up to no good, well…let’s just say the timing could have been better, to say the least.As The Reload’s…
