When it comes to people saying things that I know to be wrong, I tend to assume the mistake was made in good faith. I don’t want to say people are lying just because they’re wrong. There’s a difference between the two, and it’s an important one. To lie, one has to be aware of the truth and choose to say something they know to be false. If they’re unaware of the truth, it’s not a lie. They’re just wrong.If they don’t believe the truth, it’s not a lie. They’re just wrong. Very wrong.But a…
Multiple groups filed a lawsuit today seeking the immediate release of an Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) opinion and other documents related to the Trump administration’s lethal strikes on civilian boats in international waters, claiming that previous Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and other governmental documents have not been honored within statutory guidelines.The complaint, filed today in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), and the New York Civil Liberties Union, seeks the immediate release of a legal opinion authored by…
This article was originally published by Willow Tohi at Natural News. A CDC advisory panel voted to end the universal recommendation that all newborns receive a hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours of birth. For infants born to mothers who test negative for hepatitis B, the decision is now one of “individual-based decision-making” between parents and doctors. The change follows scrutiny of the vaccine’s necessity for low-risk infants and criticism of its original safety trials, which lasted only days. The policy had been in place since 1991, despite hepatitis B primarily being a risk for adults through specific behaviors or…
A 100% service-connected disabled veteran receiving benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs said he pays nothing for his medical care, dental, vision or prescriptions. So when he got his Medicare Part B card in the mail, he had questions: Could he keep his VA benefits? Would Medicare cover prescriptions the VA doesn’t? What about dental?The roughly 300,000 veterans who turn 65 each year may share his confusion. With Medicare Part B premiums jumping to $202.90 per month in 2026, understanding what you actually need matters.Medicare and VA Don’t Work TogetherHere’s the most important thing to understand: Medicare and VA benefits…
I’ve long been a fan of the .22 Magnum round. I know some folks don’t see the point and are either just going to go .22 LR or jump up to a .223, but I like the middle ground that the .22 Magnum provides. It has more oomph and better bullet designs than a .22LR, a bit more range, and can be chambered in lightweight rimfire rifles. I’ve had an old Marlin 25m in .22 magnum for a couple of decades at least. It’s a good rifle, but pretty basic. I wanted the option to add a suppressor, and it…
We tend not to get too deep into the weeds on LGBT-based political stuff. I get annoyed by the politics of it, to be honest, and while I know people in all of those groups and count them as friends, the political entity that tends to try to speak for all of them tends to utter crap that I’d rather not hear. However, something I touched on earlier today was the trans gun ban that was proposed.In short, it was a terrible idea to even float, and I happen to think it did a lot…
Saying that gun rights are civil rights shouldn’t be controversial. After all, most of what we term as civil liberties are enshrined in the Bill of Rights, from freedom of speech and religion to protection against illegal search and seizure, and many others. The Second Amendment is smack dab in the middle of all of those. Saying the right to keep and bear arms is a civil right isn’t controversial; it’s obvious. But some people can’t seem to wrap their gray matter around that.Among them are some critics of the Department of Justice actually treating…
“We have more guns in this country than we have humans. So one of the things that is going to be important is to create a registry so we know where the guns are. We know when they go into the wrong hands when they’re stolen. And we can actually start a buyback program. I know that some of the Minnesota legislators have had that legislation and that’s something that we should be thinking about on a federal level.” — Rep. Ilhan Omar 🚨 Make no mistake: So-called “gun registries” are the first step to firearm confiscations. @IlhanMN’s agenda has…
If you need to build strength as you prepare for military training, you should add weightlifting, load-bearing exercises, weight-vest calisthenics and other resistance workouts to your routine. Maintaining or improving muscle stamina and endurance is difficult when you are focused primarily on gaining strength, but it can be done. One way is to set up training blocks that incorporate calisthenics, cardio and lifting to get stronger or gain weight. It requires balance, innovative programming, adequate sleep and good nutrition to achieve proper recovery and see the benefits in this work. Think of this type of tactical fitness training as putting…
The crisis in the United States banking sector is not over yet. Moody’s Investor Services, one of America’s premier credit rating and analysis corporations, has issued downgrades for 11 regional investors. This development suggests that the recent bank failures have ushered in greater instability in the banking industry. The failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature draw attention to regional lenders’ weaknesses. According to The Wall Street Journal, Moody’s said strains in how banks manage their assets and liabilities are becoming “increasingly evident,” and are pressuring profitability. Recent events “have called into question whether some banks’ assumed high stability of deposits and their…
In a recent Rutgers study, research shows that those conservative individuals who were more reluctant to take precautions against COVID-19 were more likely to buy firearms in the buying frenzy of 2020. Further, groups who took more COVID precautions had a higher percentage of first-time gun buyers compared to groups who took fewer measures against illness during the same period. Of these groups, over 60% of gun purchases were to first-time buyers. The objective of the Rutgers study was to examine “the extent to which political beliefs and public health behaviors cluster together and define distinct groups of individuals and…
Posted in Bolt Action, Daily News, Rifles by with No CommentsTags: bolt action, Model 783, RemArms, Remington Back in 2013, RemArms introduced the new Model 783, a bolt-action rifle that was eventually driven to the bottom of the price list for Remington after the discontinuation of the Remington 770. In addition to the perception of the Model 783 being a “cheap” rifle and with everyone focusing their money elsewhere in the market (specifically a clamor for AR-15 rifles), the Model 783 really just didn’t sell well – something that Remington is attempting to change today with the reintroduction of the…
Iranian hackers broke into to a system used by a U.S. municipal government to publish election results in 2020 but were discovered by cyber soldiers operating abroad and kicked out before an attack could be launched, according to U.S. military and cybersecurity officials. The system involved in the previously undisclosed breach was not for casting or counting ballots, but rather was used to report unofficial election results on a public website. The breach was revealed during a presentation this week at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, which is focused on cybersecurity. Officials did not identify the local government that…
From the CCRKBA . . . Washington Democrat Gov. Jay Inslee signed legislation yesterday requiring gun buyers to provide proof they have completed a firearms training course before being allowed to complete their transaction, but the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms is calling this the equivalence of a “literacy test” that was used to discourage voting by minorities in the South. “We’re talking about rights in both cases,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb. “For Jay Inslee or any other Democrat to contend ‘this is different’ suggests they’re either dishonest or delusional, and perhaps a little…
Florida resident Kristopher Ervin was arrested in early March 2021 as part of a joint operation by agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. (Yeah, that’s a thing.) Potential AR-15 auto-sears??? (Photo: Armslist) The ATF claimed Ervin sold auto sears — components used to convert semi-automatic AR-15s into rifles that are fully automatic and fully fun…but also illegal without the proper paperwork. So let’s take a look at this case. We’ll answer what an AutoKeyCard is, find out why the ATF is so upset over it, and break down similar cases.…

Debate in St. Paul lasted long into the night on Tuesday, and lawmakers will be back at it again today as the Democratic majority tries to get a “red flag” measure and a “universal” background check bill passed. Gov. Tim Walz publicly stumped for the legislation at a gun control rally on Tuesday, imploring lawmakers to adopt the measures in the name of public safety, while claiming the bills don’t infringe on anyone’s Second Amendment rights. ‘Every other industrialized nation in the world can find a way to keep their freedoms and not kill their children and their citizens,” Democratic Gov.…

Steven Spielberg participated in a master class at the Time 100 Summit and announced he regrets editing guns out of “E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial.” The film’s 1982 theatrical cut includes a scene of officers chasing young kids with firearms. Spielberg edited the guns out for the 20th anniversary release of the film and replaced the firearms with walkie talkies. “That was a mistake,” Spielberg said. “I never should have done that. ‘E.T.’ is a product of its era. No film should be revised based on the lenses we now are, either voluntarily, or being forced to peer through.” “‘E.T.’ was a film that I…
