A new survey of thousands of veterans finds overwhelming opposition to a controversial section of the comprehensive Take Care of America’s Veterans Act (TCAVA) that is currently stalled in Congress. Disabled American Veterans, or DAV, published a new survey on Thursday of more than 4,200 veterans, their family members, caregivers and survivors showing that while 93% indicate they want veterans’ earned benefits protected, another 71% vehemently oppose the omnibus TCAVA unless a provision known as Section 108 is rescinded. “The general finding was people were opposed to TCAVA once they learned more about it,” Jim Marszalek, executive director of DAV’s…

Iran appears to possess a U.S. military autonomous underwater vehicle recovered near the entrance to the Strait of Hormuz. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps called the Dive-LD one of America’s most advanced unmanned submarines, while U.S. officials described it as an older vehicle that had malfunctioned and remained “dead in the water” for more than a day. Iran could reverse-engineer the Dive-LD’s mechanical systems and use what it learns to improve its own underwater drones. Built-in software defenses may prevent access to more sensitive functions, according to The Jerusalem Post, while U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) said the vehicle carried no…

Passengers stormed the cockpit and fought hijackers for control of United Airlines Flight 93 before it crashed in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, at 10:03 a.m. Sept. 11, 2001. In Washington that morning, a shootdown order that the vice president believed had reached the military never made it to a single fighter pilot in time to matter. The Shootdown Order That Never Arrived While Flight 93’s passengers organized their revolt in the plane’s final minutes, a breakdown was unfolding inside the White House and the military’s air defense network, one that the 9/11 Commission would later document in detail: 8:46…
On the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, an off-duty firefighter with Brooklyn’s Squad 1 had just finished an overnight shift. He was on his way to play golf with his brothers when he heard that a plane had struck the World Trade Center. Stephen Siller turned his truck around, returned to the firehouse to retrieve his gear, and drove to the entrance of the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel. The tunnel had been closed to all traffic for security purposes. So he strapped on roughly 60 pounds of gear and ran the rest of the way on foot. He ran through the tunnel…

If you’ve ever wondered what a long-term blackout would feel like—not as a prepper, but as an ordinary person—this movie gets close. Into the Forest doesn’t start with panic. It starts with normal. And then quietly chips away at it. That’s what makes it effective. Whether you’re into preparedness or not, this is a film that takes its time and pulls you into the emotional side of survival. It’s about the small decisions. The things people ignore. And how fast comfort disappears when systems fail. When the grid fails, there’s no siren. No explosion. Just silence. That’s the quiet threat…
WASHINGTON (AP) — The question hangs in the halls at the Capitol: Was it worth it? Congress, which never authorized the war against Iran yet never fully objected to it, now must grapple with the consequences of President Donald Trump’s nearly four-month conflict: the lives lost, the billions spent and the national security fallout that has reordered the political dynamics in the Middle East. Ask senators what they think about the deal Trump struck to end the war, and they do not search too far for words. “Pathetic. Failure. Inevitable conclusion of a combination of never making the case to…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadA while back, I asked the Mind4Survival community to hit me with their biggest SHTF questions. These are the real concerns people have about what happens when systems fail and the normal rules don’t apply. These are my answers to the questions people asked about their real-world SHTF concerns. No fluff. Just practical insight based on my experience and understanding. And, because this is based on my perspective, I want to be challenged by your perspective. So, as I go through these questions, please think about how you’d respond to the question, and let…

What if the next crisis doesn’t come with sirens or explosions—but with a cough? After living through COVID, most people now think about pandemics in a way they never did before. That’s what makes Contagion an entertaining movie to watch. It mirrors the chaos, confusion, and consequences we’ve all seen firsthand. Released in 2011, Contagion follows the global unraveling caused by a novel virus with no immediate cure. The film tracks scientists, public health officials, politicians, and everyday people as they try to make sense of the chaos. It’s not just about the virus. It’s about behavior, breakdown, and the…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadOn September 1, 1859, auroras lit up the night sky. Telegraph lines sparked. Operators were shocked at their keys. The world had just experienced the Carrington Event—the most powerful solar storm ever recorded. If that same storm happened today, we wouldn’t be talking about fried telegraphs. We’d face the potential loss of the power grid and nearly every aspect of modern life that depends on electricity. That’s why, on this Carrington anniversary and the kickoff of National Preparedness Month, I’m re-releasing my conversation with NASA engineer and EMP expert Dr. Arthur Bradley. Dr. Bradley…
