Thomas Massie, the Republican Congressman representing Kentucky’s 4th District yet again in the headlines. In the latest round of political theater coming out of Washington, D.C., Massie has yet again become the target of President Donald Trump’s ire. Via his Truth Social post, President Trump pulled no punches, directing a post at Massie, which gave an endorsement for a political challenger who has not even declared for the 2026 midterm race. In his message, the President called Massie a “Weak and Pathetic RINO from the Great Commonwealth of Kentucky” and that he “must be thrown out of…

This article was originally published by John W. Whitehead and Nisha Whitehead at The Rutherford Institute “Kleptocracy: a society whose leaders make themselves rich and powerful by stealing from the rest of the people.”—Cambridge Dictionary America has been backsliding into kleptocratic territory for years now, but this may finally be it. A kleptocracy is literally “rule by thieves.” It is a form of government in which a network of ruling elites “steal public funds for their own private gain using public institutions.” As analyst Thomas Mayne explains, it’s “a system based on virtually unlimited grand corruption coupled with, in the…
A Marine recruit is recovering after getting shot during rifle training at Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island in South Carolina.The recruit was hit shortly after 12 p.m. on Nov. 5 during live-fire marksmanship training, a Marines spokesperson told Military.com. Emergency crews took him to Beaufort Memorial Hospital, where he is listed in stable condition. The hospital would not discuss his care and sent all questions back to Parris Island. The Marines are not releasing the recruit’s name or hometown until next of kin are notified.The service would not say whether the recruit shot himself or if another recruit fired…
A simple movie-night snack at Regal Theatres on Veterans Day, November 11, does more than support a blockbuster. For one day, every popcorn sold helps fund life-changing programs for veterans through the Gary Sinise Foundation. They’re turning a bucket of popcorn into real support for real heroes.On this coming Veterans Day, most people expect the tributes: the flags, the speeches, the free meals. But this year, one of the most meaningful ways to support veterans won’t happen at a parade or on a podium — it’ll happen in the dark of a movie theater, right at the concession stand. Regal…

A Washington lawmaker has sponsored legislation calling on the U.S. State Department to advance religious freedom and protect persecuted Christians in Nigeria, telling Military.com that the situation has “gotten significantly worse within the past year.”President Donald Trump threatened this week to “do things to Nigeria that Nigeria is not going to be happy about” and “go into that now-disgraced country guns-a-blazing” to counter what he and the administration have described as the targeting of Christians by Islamic militants in Africa’s most populous nation.Trump has called Nigeria a “disgraced country” with a government that “continues to allow the killing of Christians.” On…

One problem with many preemption laws is that they lack any real teeth. Any community can decide to pass local gun control, and then the whole thing has to go through court. People challenging the laws don’t have taxpayers to fund those lawsuits, which makes it more of a challenge to file a suit against these cities in the first place, and if they lose, the lawmakers who passed the measures in the first place are out nothing. But if they win, they overturn preemption.Now, a legislator in Ohio is trying to change that with…
By S&W: Developed in 1966 for the U.S. Navy SEALs, the Smith & Wesson Model 76 Submachine Gun was built to replace the M/45 Swedish K after U.S. supply was cut off during the Vietnam War. Production of the M76 continued until 1974, with a total of roughly 6,000 units built. Chambered in 9×19mm Parabellum, the Model 76 Submachine Gun featured a simple blowback operation and had a cyclic rate of around 600–700 rounds per minute. It fed from a 36-round box magazine and had an ambidextrous selector lever allowing either full or semi-auto fire, a folding stock, optional suppressor…
Building Homes for HeroesMooresville, North Carolina, a Charlotte suburb, is developing a plan to provide 14 free homes to veterans. The town has formed a partnership with home supply retail giant Lowe’s, along with Building Homes for Heroes, a nonprofit from Island Park, New York, to build a small village of houses, according to Mooresville Mayor Chris Carney. The homes will be built throughout 2026 on four and a half acres owned by Mooresville. Fittingly, the houses will pop up along North Maple Street, across from the War Memorial Recreation Center. Carney unveiled plans for the village to a group of about…
Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. has officially brought back a classic name with a modern twist. The Glenfield™ Firearms brand, acquired alongside Marlin back in 2020, returns to the hunting world with the debut of the Glenfield Model A, a new American-made bolt-action rifle designed to make hunting more accessible than ever.

“We would not eat.” That is how disabled U.S. Navy veteran Juan Saro described a life without the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP, which he and more than 40 millions of Americans—around 1-in-8 Americans—rely on for food assistance. That includes seniors, disabled individuals, and families with children.About 1.2 million veterans are enrolled now, according to the National Council on Aging. More than 20,000 military families, 213,000 National Guard and Reserve members, and more than 1 million veterans, rely on such benefits, according to Veteran.com.On Nov. 1, the distribution of SNAP benefits are expected to stop because of the shutdown…
Change, as they say, is in the works. A near-production-ready concept Corolla making its debut at the Tokyo Motor Show reveals a radical makeover is coming. Affordable and reliable. For millions of Toyota Corolla buyers, that’s been the right formula, one generation after another. But in a market where sedans continue to lose momentum, Toyota appears ready to rethink that formula, adding “stylish” to the equation. At least, that’s the conclusion one can’t avoid making after getting a look at the Corolla Concept making its debut at the Japan Mobility Show this week. While Toyota isn’t ready to reveal its…
I’m constantly amazed at how many people can read the text of the Second Amendment and still somehow believe it leaves the door open to extensive gun control measures. Much of the confusion stems from the introductory clause, which reads, “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of the free state,” and has been taken as opening the anti-gun door.From time to time, someone decides to weigh in on how we, in our time, are unique in the fact that we’ve completely misread what the Second Amendment says.This time, it comes from the…
The American Red Cross is among the organizations nationwide that are coming to military service members’ aid in light of the ongoing government shutdown and potential missed paychecks.Disagreements between Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have resulted in now the second-longest government shutdown in U.S. history, surpassing the 28-day mark on Wednesday with no end in sight as negotiations among legislators remain generally nonexistent.Concerns have escalated. After the Trump administration shifted $8 billion from military research and development funds to pay the nation’s approximate 1.3 million active-duty members, those same members could start missing pay this Friday. Vice President JD Vance said Tuesday…
United States ruler Donald Trump, who was heavily involved in brokering the ceasefire deal recently broken by Israel and Hamas, has approved of Jerusalem’s renewed strikes on Gaza. It’s just three weeks into the ceasefire agreement, and it’s already over. “As I understand it, they took out an Israeli soldier,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One on Wednesday en route from Japan to South Korea. “They killed an Israeli soldier. So the Israelis hit back – and they should hit back. When that happens, they should hit back,” he added of Israel’s decision to end the ceasefire. Ceasefire Collapses: Israel Orders Strikes On Gaza…
What’s Subaru without the iconic STI hot hatch? That’s a question that performance fans have been wondering about ever since the last model finished its run 3 years ago. Apparently, Subaru planners have been asking the same question — but they’ve come up with two very different answers. Two concept versions are making their debut at the Japan Mobility Show this week, one gas and one electric. (Photo/Paul Eisenstein) Subaru STI Three years after Subaru rolled out the last of its STI packages, the iconic performance model may be ready to make its return. But anyone visiting the automaker’s stand…
The WSJ has published one of the most slanted pieces of anti-2A journalism I’ve seen in years; an attack on Stand Your Ground laws entitled “Six Words Every Killer Should Know: ‘I Feared for My Life, Officer’. The piece is predicated on the idea that Stand Your Ground laws aren’t just leading to more justifiable homicides in recent years, but that the vast majority of those justifiable homicides weren’t really justified at all, but instead were legally sanctioned murders. It’s easier than ever to kill someone in America and get away with it. In 30 states, it…
I’ll be honest: I didn’t expect a road bike helmet to change much about how I feel when I ride. I’ve worn a number of helmets over the years, and they all do their job: keep my head intact. So when I clipped into the Giro Aries Spherical for the first time, I assumed it would check the same box. Safe? Sure. Lightweight? Probably. Ventilated? Maybe. Then I rode 25 miles on the Rio Grande Trail in Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley with 84-degree heat, blazing sun, and zero breeze. A few days later, I hit the Crystal River Trail in…
