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 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…

In the aftermath of the unsuccessful ceasefire, Hamas has expanded its terrorist operations beyond the Middle East. The group is exploiting a long-established network of weapons caches, criminal alliances, and covert infrastructure that has been quietly built across Europe for years. Earlier this month, West Point’s Combating Terrorism Center released a study detailing how Hamas leaders in Lebanon have directed operatives to establish “foreign operator” cells across Europe, collaborating with organized crime networks to acquire weapons and target Jewish communities abroad. “Hamas has never carried out a successful terrorist attack outside of Israel, the West Bank, or Gaza — but not for…
The wind cut across the valley, and snow hissed sideways as I clipped into my Nordic skis for one last lap. The temperature had dropped quickly, bringing a dry, biting cold that made breath freeze midair. When I stopped to refuel, the cold hit hard. That’s when the Patagonia R1 Thermal came out of the pack. Within seconds of pulling it on, the shivering stopped. The dense outer fabric blocked the wind, the inner grid fleece kept in warmth, and suddenly the world felt calm again. What started as a near call for retreat turned into one of those perfect…
Last June, when the Supreme Court denied cert to a lawsuit challenging Maryland’s ban on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines called Snope v. Brown, Justice Brett Kavanaugh predicted that the court would take up the issue “in a term or two.” There are pending decisions in the Third and Seventh Circuits addressing similar bans in Illinois and New Jersey, but by the time the opinions are released and cert petitions are filed, it’s almost impossible that SCOTUS could accept either case and issue a decision before their summer recess in June, 2026. There…
From Innovation to Inquisition Forbes’ coverage of the 3D-printed firearms community. Mainstream media has a habit of portraying it in a negative light. Everytown for Gun Safety’s recent “3D Printed Firearms Summit” in New York City wasn’t a forum on technology it was a panic session about freedom. The event aimed to “stem the tide of 3D-printed firearm violence,” yet the discussion sounded more like an inquisition against innovation than a serious safety meeting. This was the latest in a long line of anti-gun summits recycled from the Biden-Harris era, only now Everytown’s footing the bill instead of taxpayers. The…
All five service members aboard two U.S. Navy aircraft are safe after the helicopters went down Sunday in the South China Sea minutes apart.A U.S. Pacific Fleet spokesperson confirmed to Military.com that a MH-60R Sea Hawk helicopter assigned to the “Battle Cats” of Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 73 went down around 2:45 p.m. local time while operating from the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68).

An MH-60R Sea Hawk, attached to Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 70, takes off from the flight deck of the…
With two kids under 3 and a full-time job, my training windows are short and precious. Most of my runs are 5 to 6 miles from the house, linking into a network of dirt and crushed-gravel roads that twist and roll through the foothills. Those runs tend to be fast — tempo and threshold efforts more often than not — because that’s how I get the most bang for my time-constrained buck. It’s not exactly the ideal terrain for a carbon-plated shoe, but I’ve thrown the HOKA Rocket X 3 at just about everything: road, gravel, dirt, track, and even…
Gun storage is a good thing. Responsible gun owners tend to have a gun safe somewhere in their home, or at least a cable lock they can use to keep guns out of unauthorized hands. This is one thing that, to some degree, both sides of the gun debate can agree on.It’s just a when we get to the matter of how far things should go that we run into roadblocks.Brady, the notoriously anti-gun organization, just revamped one of their websites to push their own agenda on gun storage.Now, its latest update is endfamilyfire.org, a website…
President Trump says he underwent an MRI earlier this month and calls the results “perfect.” The White House will not say why.The president made the remarks to reporters aboard Air Force One as he left for Asia on a multi-nation trip focused on security and trade. After reporters noticed swelling on his hands and pressed him about his health, he did not explain what part of his body was scanned or what prompted the MRI. He told reporters they would “have to ask the doctors.”Military.com reached out to the White House Press Office, Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, the…

While the U.S. Supreme Court has granted cert to two cases dealing with Second Amendment issues this term, the Oregon State Supreme Court will also soon consider the constitutionality of a sweeping gun control measure narrowly approved by voters three years ago. Measure 114 has yet to be enforced, thanks in part to an injunction issued by a Harney County judge who found the law violated the state’s constitution (a federal judge, on the other hand, has declined to issue an injunction against the law). The state legislature has also extended the effective date of…
France’s ruler Emmanuel Macron “dreams” of a military intervention for Ukraine against Russia. Macron has reportedly ordered a contingent of 2,000 soldiers to prepare to help Kiev fight the war. Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has claimed that Macron is wholly preparing to go to war against them. The SVR suggested that the French ruler is concerned with leaving his stain on history, according to a report by RT. “Having failed as a politician and despaired of ever pulling the country out of the long social and economic crisis, he does not give up the hope to go down in…
