When Chef Tee Cozy lines up for the Chicago Marathon on Oct. 12, 2025, it’ll be the 11th time the head chef from Cozy Noodles n’ Rice, a Thai restaurant in Wrigleyville, Ill., has run the race. If there’s one thing apparent in the opening scenes of this new short film — the debut in the new PACE SETTERS series by iRunFar in partnership with HOKA — it’s that Chef Tee, who moved to Chicago from Thailand in 1996, loves his city. He also loves running. And he brings that same sense of love to all he does. [Editor’s Note: If you are unable to see the…
The gun control lobby spends almost as much time and energy trying to convince the public that they’re just interested in “reasonable, common sense” measures as it does trying to restrict our right to keep and bear arms. So I wasn’t exactly shocked to see Brady head Kris Brown declare this past week that “Brady is not opposed to the idea of restoring gun rights in principle,” but I was curious to see the fine print attached to that statement. Brown’s comment came in a Substack post devoted to the DOJ’s proposed rule on re-establishing…
This article was originally published by John W. Whitehead and Nisha Whitehead at The Rutherford Institute. “When they came in the middle of the night, they terrorized the families that were living there. There were children who were without clothing, they were zip tied, taken outside at 3 o’clock in the morning. A senior resident, an American citizen with no warrants, was taken outside and handcuffed for three hours. Doors were blown off their hinges, walls were broken through, immigration agents coming from Black Hawk helicopters … This is America.”—Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson When the government can label anyone or anything an enemy in order…
We arrived at camp after dark, blissfully exhausted from a long day exploring the magical red rock of Sedona. Our only task was to set up camp and get to bed so we could do it all over again tomorrow. After shuffling our gear around, we unrolled our LUNO AIR Pro Vehicle Mattress and started the 12V air pump. Only a few minutes later, we were ready to lay down our weary bodies. I slept so comfortably that night, I truly couldn’t believe it was an air mattress — or that I was sleeping in the back of a car.…
Savage Arms has been in the gun business for a long time. Founded by Arthur Savage in 1894, the company has had a long and illustrious history. Many shooters only think of them as building rifles… their Model 99 lever gun is a classic… but they also build handguns and shotguns. Actually, I’ve got their micro-9mm pistol, the Stance XR, on my table now. It’s in line for review. I like it, but stay tuned for that write-up later. A lesser-known fact is that the company’s entry into our military sidearm trials in 1910-1911 was the only other gun left to…
Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadOctober’s rolling in with cooler air, falling leaves, and a wake-up call to do some fall weather prepping. In Mississippi, Fall Severe Weather Preparedness Week (October 6-11, 2025) is pushing families to prep for tornadoes, floods, and early frosts—threats that hit hard in Tornado Alley. Other states like Arkansas, Oklahoma, and South Carolina are joining in with similar campaigns, including South Carolina’s Earthquake Preparedness Week (October 12-18), which ties perfectly into a broader fall preparedness push. This isn’t about fear or hype—it’s about practical, low-cost steps to keep your household safe, whether you’re dodging…
We all grow older. There is nothing we can do about that, but the quality of those years is within our control, as recent research has shown.After receiving a doctor’s approval to begin any exercise program, aging adults who have not been physically active for decades should start their fitness journey with the basics, such as walking and stretching. Once a solid foundation is built, though, a regular, higher-intensity exercise program can lead to remarkable improvements in heart health, according to one study.That study covered a two-year, high-intensity interval training (HIIT) program and its effects on sedentary individuals 50 to…

By Brad Fitzpatrick Smith & Wesson has been busy. A few years ago, the company moved to their new facility in Maryville, Tennessee. Just two weeks ago the Smith & Wesson Academy, a state-of-the-art training facility on the company’s property in Maryville, opened its doors.

The International Monetary Fund has published its multi-year plan to implement a central bank digital currency or CBDC. This is a necessary step to ensure the slaves never seek escape from the invisible prison the masters have built. The Endgame: Central Bank Digital Currency In order to fully control people, they need to control what they can buy, and sell, and how much they can do without permission. The slave state is expanding, and if humanity allows this to happen, quite frankly, we deserve it. In an April 10th document published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) called IMF Approach…
Do you want a way to hone your shotgun skills before the start of hunting season? Hunting Doves Or do you love the thrill of competition and want to see how your shooting skills stack up compared to other shooters? Skeet shooting (as well as trap and sporting clays) is a great way to do just that. Trap Shooting The good news is that you can get started in clay target sports with pretty much any shotgun.

MINNEAPOLIS — On the morning of May 28, 2020, U.S. Gen. Joseph L. Lengyel warned two of the Pentagon’s highest-ranking officials that the situation in Minneapolis was about to get a lot worse. Minneapolis police were expecting as many as 75,000 protesters to converge on the city that weekend in response to George Floyd’s murder three days before, Lengyel wrote in an email to Deputy Secretary of Defense David Nordquist and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley. The Minnesota National Guard had 200 military police officers standing by to assist, he wrote. “They are prepared to be…
For the first time in years, Sebastian Anderson felt like he could breathe. Anderson, 31, had moved to Delaware with his wife to be closer to family. They bought a home in a quiet subdivision with a yard for their dog, Koda. They were taking trips to the beach, going hiking and watching movies together. Most importantly, Anderson had a new job. His old job, Anderson said, was toxic. Long hours, high turnover and a flood of paperwork. It felt like being on a sinking boat. No matter how much he bailed, the water kept rising, and Anderson, a disabled Army veteran, could feel…
A lot of our readers like to clean their guns. They find it soothing and reassuring. Me…not so much. My usual trick for cleaning my guns: get someone else to do it who liked doing it. For those of you who share my aversion to carbon crud, toothbrushes, and solvents and can’t impose on an OCD ballistic BFF, an ultrasonic cleaner is the simplest solution. The Hornady Hot Tub (our review here) above costs a pretty penny (about $699) but it’s way more thorough than even a TTAG writer’s best buddy’s manual labor. (Note: there are smaller, cheaper…
When Glenn Janssen decided to file a claim for disability benefits with the Veterans Affairs Department last year, he dreaded the prospect of dealing with federal bureaucracy and paperwork. Janssen, 57, lives in Portugal with his wife and has worked as a government contractor since leaving the Army in 2004. The Gulf War-era and Louisiana National Guard veteran wanted to put in a claim for tinnitus and back and shoulder problems from his years in the service. But he worried that trying to manage the process from overseas would be a nightmare. So, when another veteran, who’s also a trusted…

These agents investigate financial crimes, money laundering, tax-related identity theft, and terrorist financing efforts. They are the only IRS workers who are permitted to carry and use firearms. Required to work a minimum of 50 hours a week, always on call even during vacations and weekends, these agents will need to be fit so they can “effectively respond to life-threatening situations,” per the listing. They will conduct arrests, search warrants, and “other dangerous assignments.” But most importantly, they must be legally allowed to carry a gun. The agents must be prepared to protect themselves or others “from physical attacks at…
Washington state has a brand new assault weapon ban. Yes, it’s being challenged and hopefully overturned, but if that doesn’t happen–and there’s no guarantee that it will–it means people in the state will possibly be saddled with the ban until and unless the Supreme Court overturns it. That’s bad news for a lot of good people in the state who just want to exercise their Second Amendment rights. However, as Reason’s J.D. Tuccille notes, no one should expect it to do all that much. It doesn’t bode well for a law when you immediately notice the measure’s impotence against people…
WASHINGTON (AP) — Jill Biden welcomed military families to the White House lawn Saturday for a workout complete with jumping jacks and push-ups to highlight the sacrifices children make when their parents decide to serve. “Sharing a workout might seem like a small thing,” the first lady, who was joined by Veteran Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough, said to the crowd. “But when it comes to honoring our military, and veteran families, caregivers and survivors, it’s often the little things that make a difference.” The event was the latest in a series hosted by the first lady as part of Joining…
