As part of the Democrats’ failed efforts to pass a gun and magazine ban in Minnesota this year, a number of communities in the state adopted local ordinances of their own prohibiting commonly-owned arms like AR-15s. Though the ordinances were written so that they would only take effect if Minnesota’s firearm preemption law is ever repealed, the MN Gun Owners Caucus has launched several lawsuits against the measures, arguing that the preemption statute applies to these types of anticipatory ordinances too.  On Thursday, a Ramsey County judge sided with the Caucus and denied a request…

As recently announced by Bungie, Destiny 2 is unfortunately meeting its untimely end on June 9, with a final update that marks a new era for the game with no new content, live-service patches, expansions, or anything of the sort.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Uncertainty swirled Friday around what the U.S. called a tentative deal to extend the ceasefire in its war with Iran. It wasn’t clear whether U.S. President Donald Trump supports it, and a top Iranian official said his country wins concessions “through missiles,” not talks. U.S. Vice President JD Vance said Thursday the adversaries had reached a tentative agreement. But he said they continued to debate “a couple of language points” and he couldn’t say whether Trump would approve the proposal.

I’d say the chances are pretty good. As we reported yesterday, Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger has declared that “universal” background checks are once again the law of the Commonwealth, even though a Lynchburg judge’s injunction on the practice is still in effect.
