A 30-acre wooded property on a lake in western New York opened up as a free retreat where disabled veterans could rest and heal.

Despite the fact that its a project of anti-gun zealot Mike Bloomberg, The Trace likes to bill itself as a straightforward news operation, albeit one that focuses on “gun violence.” And all too often, mainstream media outlets are happy to play along with that fiction.

The Trace’s Jennifer Mascia raised some eyebrows over the weekend with a post on…

United States President Donald Trump has warned Iran that the clock is ticking. He added that “there won’t be anything left” of Iran if the country fails to make a deal with the US ruling class. Trump took to his Truth Social platform on Sunday to warn that “for Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!” Indirect talks between the two warring sides have remained stalled since a fragile ceasefire was established in early April after a month of hostilities initiated by the US…
The 2026 legislative session in Minnesota has been gaveled to a close, and Democrats were unsuccessful in their attempt to pass a sweeping gun control bill that would have banned the sale and transfer of many semi-automatic firearms and commonly owned ammunition magazines. The bun and magazine ban was a top priority for Gov. Tim Walz, who demanded the restrictions on popular firearms after the shooting last August at Annunciation Church in Minneapolis, where two children were killed and two dozen were injured when a 23-year-old former student at the Catholic school opened fire on…

As part of the state’s discovery process, Davenport has sent subpoenas to FFLs in the Garden State demanding they produce records related to every Glock handgun that’s been purchased in their stores over the past decade. In an alert on the NRA-ILA website, the 2A group points out that Davenport already has access to this information, since New Jersey’s pistol permitting system operates…
