GPS has become a foundational technology for modern navigation. Commercial aircraft use it, ships rely on it at sea, drivers depend on it for direction, and military forces use it across nearly every domain. Autonomous systems have only increased that dependence, using GPS not just to determine position but to navigate, coordinate, and complete missions. The challenge is that GPS is not invulnerable. Electronic warfare systems can jam GPS signals, preventing receivers from obtaining a usable position. More sophisticated systems can spoof GPS, transmitting false signals that cause a receiver to calculate an incorrect location. In other environments, GPS may…

An undisclosed financial settlement has been awarded to a Washington, D.C., resident who was handcuffed and detained for playing the “Imperial March” from the movie ‘Star Wars’ on a loudspeaker while following a group of marching National Guard troops. In announcing the settlement, the government of the District of Columbia upheld Sam O’Hara’s right to free speech, which was the basis of a First Amendment lawsuit brought on his behalf by the American Civil Liberties Union of D.C. “This is definitely a step toward feeling vindicated, but I won’t feel completely vindicated until my case against the National Guard is…

It wasn’t all that long ago when the left went around trying to tear down any statue that had anything at all to do with slavery. While I’m not going to pretend slavery was remotely good for anyone besides, maybe, the people who owned them–and I’m not sold that it was good for them, either–I also don’t think that tearing down our history is a good idea. Especially when you start trying to tear down statues of our Founding Fathers who weren’t honored for their stances on owning other people. Now, celebrating racism is not…
Gun Owners Foundation says New York lawmakers didn’t just pass another gun control measure, they buried it inside the state’s 2026 budget. In the latest installment of Bullet Points, GOF’s Dan Wos argues that Gov. Kathy Hochul and Democratic lawmakers quietly slipped new restrictions targeting 3D-printed firearms and digital design files into the massive budget package instead of advancing the proposal through the normal legislative process. According to Wos, that’s no accident. The big problem gun control advocates have is the fact that all gun restrictions are unconstitutional,” he says at the start of the video, arguing that New York…

It’s been another frustrating session for Tennessee gun owners. Yes, the Republican majorities in the statehouse blocked Democrats’ gun control bills, but they failed to produce much of anything for Second Amendment advocates to celebrate other than a bill protecting the rights of tenants to keep and bear arms. Even that was watered down to allow landlords to disarm any guests of the tenant, but more importantly, several pieces of legislation protecting the right to keep and bear arms were left to die in committee without ever getting a vote at all. One of those bills…
Entering the up-there realm requires not only a sound mindset but also a good change of clothing. Waterproof, burly, and breathable, the best hardshell jackets provide it all for your next foray into mountaineering, backcountry skiing, alpine climbing, or just downright miserable weather. After many seasons spent above treeline, I winnowed my closet down to the most capable shells on the market in 2026. Included are jackets for every alpine mission, from burly alpine armor like my top pick, the Arc’teryx Beta AR, to budget-minded shells like the Patagonia M10 Storm that will get you in and out in one…
We know the DOJ said they’re going to stand up the process for gun rights restoration for non-violent felons. This has been a long time coming, and my hope is that a lot of good people take advantage of it. But the problem is that no one has an inkling of what that will look like.David Codrea has tried to look into it. In particular, he wanted to know about the criteria that would be used, and about the 10 individuals who have already had their rights restored. So, with that in mind, the next…
This article was originally published by Carlos Boix at The Mises Institute. People in high office and their friends are at the receiving end of anger and frustration due to their misbehavior of late. The release of the Epstein files have only fueled this. The internet is ablaze with anger against the “elites.” Is this an opportunity, as some claim, to advance ideas of individual liberty? To convince people of the evils of coercive state action? With such idiots at the top, surely we can fuel mistrust for the system. I disagree. In Spain, we have had plenty of “political corruption.” From…

A jury in Albuquerque, New Mexico has acquitted a former Uber driver of involuntary manslaughter, almost seven years after shooting took place, while police in the city say a much more recent shooting was also an act of self-defense. In the first case, jurors deliberated for about five hours before returning the not guilty verdict for Clayton Benedict, who had testified during his trial that he shot passenger James Porter in self-defense.Attorneys said in closing arguments Friday that the fatal series of events began when Benedict picked up two intoxicated men at the Salt Yard,…

It’s imperative that we police our own as best we can. That means calling out bad behavior, condemning the worst, and making it clear that it’s not acceptable.We normally don’t have to do much of that because while some people get stupid with guns, they’re usually casual gun owners, we all call them out, and then we go about our business. It’s often over something tragic, though sometimes it’s just hilarious; it’s often not intentional. But what this guy was convicted of is completely unacceptable.A former DuPage County prosecutor was sentenced earlier this month to…
