Patrick “Tate” Adamiak is rotting in a prison cell he never should have seen the inside of. He was charged with multiple weapons violations, and in every case, the charge is bogus. This isn’t a case of there being nuance that, as a Second Amendment advocate, I’m inclined to view differently than prosecutors. This was a case of a young man being charged for violating laws that he simply did not violate. And the fact that he’s still in prison after all we know is one of the greatest injustices I know of.The ATF did…
Roughly 3 1/2 years after being elected as mayor of Arcadia, Calif., Eileen Wang is facing serious federal charges as an illegal agent of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Wang, 58, was elected in November 2022 to the Arcadia City Council, involving a five-person governing body where the mayor is selected on a rotating basis. Arcadia, a city located about 13 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles in the San Gabriel Valley, has a population of roughly 54,000 residents. As part of an announcement made Monday by the Justice Department, Wang, 58, is charged with one count of acting…
Ultralight gear has exploded in popularity among backpackers. Hikers want to go further, faster, with less weight, and brands are meeting the demand with cutting-edge ultralight innovations in backpacks, sleeping bags, pads, pillows, tents, water filters, and more. However, when you see the price tags of some of the equipment and the lengths people go to cut ounces, it’s easy to get turned off to the whole idea. It doesn’t have to be that way, though. For backpackers, going ultralight is easier (and less expensive) than you might expect. We stepped back to drum up some easy tips, tricks, and…
There’ve been enough assassination attempts against President Donald Trump–not just a couple of guys talking smack in a Waffle House, mind you, but real attempts–that it’s getting kind of sad. The fact that none of these guys are time travelers, though, makes me feel a lot better. (IYKYK) But the latest wasn’t at some speech in a field, or on a wide-open golf course. It was a hotel ballroom where the bad guy got surprisingly close, though not close enough, thankfully.While the Secret Service is facing renewed scrutiny over its handling of security, the laws…
WASHINGTON (AP) — David Venturella, a former executive at a private prison operator, will serve as the acting head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Trump administration says, after the agency’s current leader steps down at the end of the month. A spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security said late Tuesday that Venturella would succeed Todd Lyons, who led the agency through much of the administration’s tumultuous crackdown on immigration. ICE did not immediately respond to an email seeking additional information Wednesday. Venturella left the Geo Group in early 2023 and has been working at ICE leading the…
Israel has stepped up its “brutal bombardment” of southern Lebanon. Despite a United States-brokered ceasefire, Lebanese officials have reported that nearly ninety people have been killed in strikes since Friday. Thirty-nine people were killed on Saturday alone, after Israel struck 22 towns and villages in southern Lebanon. This is not the first time that it has been clear that the ceasefire may as well not even be in effect. Neither side appears to be following it. Israel Continues Strikes On Lebanon, Despite Ceasefire Accoridng to RT correspondent Steve Sweeney, local authorities said 39 people were killed on Saturday alone after…
Isometrics are strength training exercises that focus on building strength through muscle contractions instead of movement. Exercises such as plank poses are common core-strengthening and military testing exercises that are examples of isometric exercises. The question is when and where in a routine you should add them. Here is the question from a reader about when and where in a routine you should add them: Stew, is there a place for isometric movements to supplement weightlifting and TRX exercises? Thanks, Craig Craig, great question. The answer is yes: You should add isometric exercises to your workout plans to improve strength,…
World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has claimed that the world may experience more cases of Hantavirus. “We might see more cases” of the deadly Andes strain of hantavirus emerge in the coming days, after an eleventh case was recorded, he said. “At the moment, there is no sign that we are seeing the start of a larger outbreak, but of course the situation could change and, given the long incubation period of the virus, it’s possible we might see more cases in the coming weeks,” Ghebreyesus said at a press conference in Madrid on Tuesday. Countries Are Rushing…
A 24-year-old Philadelphia man who’s attracted a minor following on Instagram for openly carrying an AR-style pistol through the streets of the City of Brotherly Love is now facing felony charges after an arrest for illegally transferring a firearm. Philadelphia D.A. Larry Krasner, who’s been criticized for what many see as his lenient treatment of violent criminals, appears to be throwing the book at Kobe Artis. Krasner claims that Artis was posted a clip to social media that showed him handing a handgun and a rifle to an individual who’s prohibited from possessing firearms, calling…
The U.S. Virgin Islands government is currently being sued by the Department of Justice over several of its draconian gun laws, but the litigation isn’t stopping the territory’s legislature from working to enact even more restrictions on the right to keep and bear arms. Now the territory’s sole Second Amendment advocacy group claims the legislature is suppressing the voices of gun owners, in part by scheduling hearings with little advance notice. Getting to the legislature to testify can be a time consuming ordeal for those who don’t live on the island where hearings are taking…
This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News. Introduction For years, the cumulative damage from decades of martial arts training lingered as a low-grade, ever-present pain. A damaged finger and a back that protested at the thought of a jog were my constant companions. The Western medical system offered little promise other than suggesting painkillers or invasive surgeries, options rooted in a profit-driven model that rarely addresses root causes [1]. As someone deeply committed to natural health and self-reliance, I was profoundly skeptical of any so-called ‘miracle cure.’ That skepticism was challenged, however, by the discovery of BPC-157,…
When it comes to emergency preparedness, most of us are just trying to prepare for the worst and learn how to take care of our families in a crisis. We’re not looking for trouble. But what if some of the very tools we rely on in emergencies are raising red flags? What if buying certain survival items is enough to land you on a list you never knew existed?Nowadays, nothing you do on the Internet is private. Even if you use a VPN, companies like Palantir and Microsoft can find ways to track and record everything you do, especially everything…
There are some people you look at and think, “I hate that you’re on my side.”This is true for people on every part of the political spectrum. These are usually the more extreme people out there, but often it’s not even a matter of political position versus one doing a terrible job of representing an ideology. And then you have the people who, at least on the surface, seem to stand for everything you despise, but then make one stand that sounds like you uttered the words.That’s what we’ve got here.For those unfamiliar with a…
Reaching the summit of Mt. Whitney is one thing. Reaching the safety of your car afterward is another. The 21.4-mile round-trip hike has an elevation gain of over 6,000 feet. Near the summit, the air is thin, and the terrain can be snow-covered in places and icy. It’s a dangerous climb that claims lives every year. In 2025, there were five fatalities on the mountain, the deadliest year of the last decade. In 2026, Whitney has already claimed one life near the summit on Jan. 19. Despite the dangers, between 25,000 and 30,000 people successfully hike Mount Whitney every year. It is…
Less than a year and counting until its first “Universal EV” debuts, Ford wants to change the equation with a new approach to designing and manufacturing battery-electric vehicles. While we’ll have to wait to see if it meets that lofty goal, the automaker claims the new lineup will be less expensive, offer longer range, and be more capable than any EV now on the market. First off the line will be a Maverick-sized pickup offering Ranger-sized roominess and at least 300 miles of range, starting under $30,000. Over the next several years, Ford confirmed today, it will add a variety…
There’s no doubt that Missouri is one of, if not the most, pro-gun states in the nation. I mean, this is a state that took sanctuary status for the Second Amendment and enshrined it into law via the Second Amendment Preservation Act. Unfortunately, that law was overturned by the courts, which cited the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. (Cool, now do immigration sanctuary laws, guys.)Now, the state is once again considering how to bulk up its protections for the gun rights of Missourians, while trying not to cross the line where the law gets smacked…
Regional organizations unite to strategize on Second Amendment defense The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) is organizing the first-ever New England Firearms Advocacy Conference, scheduled for May 30, 2026, at Castle of Knights in Chicopee, Massachusetts. The event brings together six regional Second Amendment organizations: Connecticut Citizens Defense League, Massachusetts Gun Owners’ Action League, Gun Owners of Maine, New Hampshire Firearms Coalition, Rhode Island 2nd Amendment Coalition, and Vermont Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs. Conference chair Holly Sullivan, who serves as CCRKBA Director, explained the strategic thinking behind the regional approach. “We wanted to create…
The Florida Department of Health’s officials have released an update on a measles outbreak at a university. There have been 46 confirmed cases of measles across Collier County from January 1st to February 7th. Fifty-seven students at Ave Maria University are quarantined, so far, as the school works on providing free vaccinations to those who may want them. The vigorous campaign to vaccinate the masses is being promoted as a way to protect the community. Local fire departments are also working closely with health officials to hand out vaccines. Collier County has said that the majority of the Ave Maria University…
Most flipper knives require a bit of actual flipping to open the blade. But with the WEKnife Speedliner, a late 2024 introduction designed by Tashi Bharucha, it’s more like pulling a trigger. WEKnife sent me a Speedliner Flipper Knife with a titanium handle around the holidays. I hadn’t sought it out, but it arrived with a brief note of thanks and carried my name on the handle. I didn’t think much of reviewing it until now, a couple of months later, as it has really earned a spot in my daily rotation. While the Speedliner seemed to garner a lukewarm…
New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment…and unconstitutional gun control. How is a state, with a population of just over two million people, always the vetting ground for gun control zealots’ bright ideas? Before legislation is handed over to legislators in “un-gun friendly” states like California, Illinois, New York and Washington, it always seems like gun control groups like Michael Bloomberg backed Everytown, or Giffords use New Mexico as a beta-test to see how much “they” can get away with before ending up arguing before SCOTUS. Under the abysmal “leadership” of Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, the answer to violence committed…
