This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream. Massive explosions are being reported all over Iran as the U.S. conducts airstrikes in Iranian territory for a second night in a row. This isn’t exactly a surprise because just hours ago President Trump declared that the ceasefire is “over” and he openly warned that “we’re going to hit them hard again tonight”. Of course, the Iranians have absolutely no intention of backing down. They are reportedly preparing a very large response, and they are considering moves that would definitely take this conflict to the next level.…
There’s a profound difference between lawfare and just trying to correct wrongs. One is all about punishing the other side, regardless of the outcome. The other is about holding authorities accountable when they try to break the law. For example, there was a lawsuit in Bradford County, Florida. I covered the incident at the time. Basically, a sign at the county-owned fairground said that open carry was prohibited. As Florida has preemption, that’s not something they can do. They were asked about it and refused to follow the law, so they got sued.And that did…
Don’t worry, Land Rover Defender Octa fans. Despite what you may have heard, the monster SUV isn’t showing up for 2027 with 100 horsepower missing. At least not if you live in America. US shoppers will get the full-fat Defender Octa, along with other model year changes, including a six-cylinder instead of the old basic four, new colors, captain’s chairs, and more. Here’s what’s happening with the latest model. US Version Keeps Its V8, But Europe Gets Better Sound Credit: Land Rover In Europe and some other markets, the Defender Octa trades its 626-horsepower 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 for one that only…
These don’t fit like the REI snow pants I remember. For years, my experience with REI Co-op apparel has followed a familiar pattern: affordable, durable, and functional, but not exactly stylish. Think: loose, boxy silhouettes, sometimes bordering on sack-like. They worked, but they didn’t always look stylish. But that’s why the REI Co-op Powderbound Insulated Snow Pants caught me off guard. From the first try-on, they felt sleeker than expected (for snow pants, anyway). The silhouette was slimmer, the materials felt nicer, and overall, they looked like legitimate ski pants — not just a budget-friendly backup option. I tested the…
Pro-gun rights advocates fighting for the Kentucky government to recognize the Second Amendment-protected rights of young adults aged 18 to 20 have hit a roadblock. On April 2, Gov. Andy Beshear vetoed House Bill 312, which had been overwhelmingly in both the state House and the Senate. The measure would have created a provisional concealed carry permit for 18-, 19-, and 20-year-olds, granting them the same rights as other adults in the Bluegrass State. The Kentucky Senate approved the measure 30-7, and the House passed the measure by a 73-to-17 margin. To get a provisional license, young adults would have…
Dr. Anthony Douglas, a surgical resident in Chicago, is leading the push for lawmakers to adopt a bill called the RIFL (Responsibility in Firearm Legislation) Act, which would require firearms manufacturers to obtain a license from the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation before they can sell guns in the state of Illinois. As we’ve previously detailed, the cost of obtaining a license would vary from company to company, and would be based on two factors. First, the DFPR would determine the amount of all licensing fees based on an estimate that is “is equal to…
This article was originally published by William L. Anderson at The Mises Institute. If there is a mantra among progressive American political and media elites, it would be “our democracy,” usually preceded by what they believe to be a threat from the Right. For example, progressives deemed the recent reversal of Roe “a threat to our democracy” because it removed laws regulating abortion from Supreme Court jurisdiction and returned the issue to democratically elected legislatures. It would seem inconsistent to invoke the democratic electoral process to deal with a contentious issue like abortion, but progressives are nothing if not inconsistent. But even…
Jeanne Pirro is the US attorney for the District of Columbia. She’s…kind of been a trainwreck when it comes to gun rights. We all know it. Sure, she stopped enforcing a couple of laws in the early days, then pretty much keeps putting her foot in her mouth, even when she’s writing. Last week, while covering Pirro’s office’s request for an en banc review of a decision they’ve said they weren’t even fighting anymore–and it sure sounded like they were fighting it–Cam wondered if Trump could remove her while he’s shaking up the DOJ. Unfortunately,…
