The Department of Veterans Affairs is significantly expanding its use of virtual reality as a therapeutic tool, partnering with Mynd Immersive to bring immersive experiences to 45 additional VA medical centers nationwide. The initiative reflects a broader institutional shift toward non-pharmacological care, particularly for chronic pain, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. A Shift Toward Immersive Healthcare Chris Brickler, CEO and co-founder of Mynd Immersive, describes this shift as part of a larger technological convergence. “I define immersive healthcare by a combination…of AI and spatial computing that can deliver an entirely new genre of healthcare products and applications,” he said in an…
In 2023, during an interview, Gabby Giffords actually said, “No more guns.” She said the quiet part out loud, and while it was kind of refreshing, the fact that there was so little backlash, particularly among the anti-gun community that swears they don’t want any such thing, was telling. Now, her organization is close to saying it once again.As May is Asian and Pacific Islander (or API) Heritage Month, it’s not surprising that many people choose this time to talk about their special interest as it relates to this group of Americans. While Gabby Giffords…
This article was originally published by Jacob Thomas at Natural News. President Donald Trump warned he will monitor which companies seek refunds on tariffs the Supreme Court declared illegal, suggesting forgone refunds could earn his favor. Trump called it brilliant if companies like Amazon and Apple avoid seeking refunds, stating, “If they don’t do that, I will remember them.” The Supreme Court invalidated Trump’s global tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, with U.S. Customs and Border Protection launching refunds of $166 billion on April 20. Despite the ruling, Trump has criticized the justices who voted against him and…

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup set to draw massive crowds to stadiums across North America in just weeks, security planners are confronting a rapidly evolving aerial threat. Commercial heavy-lift drones, once viewed primarily as agricultural or industrial tools, have demonstrated in global conflicts how quickly they can be repurposed as weapons. In an interview with Military.com, Hylio CEO Arthur Erickson laid out the specific vulnerabilities created by loosely controlled imported systems and the concrete advantages of secure, American-made platforms built with end-to-end control. The Scale of Destruction Possible Erickson did not mince words about the payload reality. If you’ve…

A record-long Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown ended Thursday but still does not fund U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The 76-day political squabble between Republicans and Democrats concluded Thursday when President Donald Trump signed a bill restoring funding to the Coast Guard, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, FEMA, Secret Service and TSA. Republicans are pushing billions in ICE and CBP funding through a reconciliation package to further the Trump administration’s agenda. The bill appropriates $48 billion to the aforementioned DHS agencies. The months-long funding lapse dates back to Feb. 14 when…
Many luxury automakers seem to think more screens – or bigger screens that take up most of the dashboard’s space – is the future. Models like the all-new Mercedes-Benz C-Class, for example, have so much space allocated to digital displays for the driver and passenger that the brand’s elegance can feel… lessened. While luxury interiors were once distinguished by high-end materials, clocks, and other interfaces that were easy to understand and felt nice to touch, it feels as though some automakers have lost their old visions. However, Hyundai’s luxury division thinks differently. Genesis is a high-end luxury brand that rose…
Amtrak could soon be expanding the number of routes where gun owners can bring their firearms in their checked baggage, and one anti-gun activist has gone off the rails with his response. Amtrak currently allows gun owners to bring their firearms along when they’re passengers on trains that have locked baggage cars. According to the Associated Press, the Trump administration has been pushing Amtrak to expand that access by putting lockboxes on most trains. Passengers still couldn’t carry their firearms on board, but they could at least store them until they get to their destination. This seems…
War is bad for business, unless you’re an arms dealer. It puts the economy into decline, makes people not spend, and can affect supply lines. When World War Two broke out, the US was in one of the better positions compared to the rest of the world to weather the storm. While there was a huge industrial effort to produce as much equipment, weapons, and vehicles for the army as possible, people back home had to get around and still needed new cars. General Motors was one of the most popular automotive companies at this time – with the onslaught…
Summary Not giving up nuclear program: Iran will “guard” its “advanced technologies” like it does its own borders, Mojtaba Khamenei said in a written speech read aloud by state TV. It will “secure the Persian Gulf region and dismantle the hostile enemy’s exploitation of this waterway.” US military teases cutting-edge, not yet tested in battle, hypersonic missiles for the Mideast region as CENTCOM head set to brief Trump on further military options at White House. Brent crude for June delivery reached as much as $126 a barrel in trading on Thursday, before easing to $114, as oil prices have surged to their highest levels since…
In theory, preemption laws should stop local governments from trying to push through local gun control. After all, they know it won’t stand as it violates state law, so why bother? Why not do something more productive, like licking door knobs and calling them “Lucille.” Yeah, I’m not running on much sleep right now, so things could get weird. Anywho…preemption.The truth of the matter is that despite the laws on the books in numerous states, you still get little twerp in local government who thinks he or she matters more than they do, trying to…

WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth appeared before Congress at a pair of hourslong hearings this week for the first time since the Trump administration went to war against Iran, with the Pentagon chief facing tough questions from skeptical Democrats. Hegseth seemed to emerge with solid Republican support over his leadership and handling of the war. But a few GOP lawmakers questioned his dismissal of a top Army general, while some sought assurances that the Pentagon is doing everything possible to prevent civilian deaths. The hearings Wednesday and Thursday before the House and Senate Armed Services committees delved into the…
