We know good and well that the Second Amendment says “shall not be infringed.” We all know what that means. Still, anti-gunners keep arguing that gun control is constitutional. They might bring up the militia clause, but they can’t illustrate how that overrides the last four words. They don’t even try, really. They simply proclaim it and we’re expected to accept it. Obviously, we don’t and won’t.But why do they seem to feel like they don’t have to? Why is it that they believe they can ignore the text of the Second Amendment?Howard Sachs, writing…
CAIRO (AP) — U.S. President Donald Trump threatened more strikes on Iran as the United States presses for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Hours later on Saturday, Kuwait said it responded to a new round of drone attacks from Iran while a tanker was struck in the strategic waterway. Meanwhile, Israel heavily struck the Gaza Strip after the Palestinian militant group Hamas agreed to disarm. Here are the most important developments in the Middle East today: US threatens new strikes in the conflict with Iran Speaking to reporters Friday during a meeting with members of his Cabinet at…

The Department of Veterans Affairs hit 2 million processed disability claims by June of this year — weeks ahead of any prior record — with average wait times cut nearly in half and the backlog under 75,000. Veterans advocates say speed matters, but accuracy matters more. The Department of Veterans Affairs announced June 10 that it had processed more than 2 million disability benefits claims in fiscal 2026 as of June 1, faster than at any point in the agency’s history. The prior record was set in fiscal year 2025, when VA hit the 2 million mark in late June.…
On May 18, 1917, six weeks after the United States declared war on Germany, Congress passed the Selective Service Act. It was the first national draft since the Civil War, and it changed the daily reality of nearly every young man in the country almost overnight. If you want to know whether you would have been called up, the honest answer depends on exactly how old you were, what you did for a living, and how the war’s demand for manpower shifted over its final 18 months. The First Registration: June 5, 1917 The government designated June 5, 1917 as…
After more than half a decade, Rossignol has cleaned up its nomenclature — and this ski writer couldn’t be happier. There’s now a simple cleavage down the middle of the French giant’s ski line. On one side, there’s the Sender — the twinned, center-mounted ski line that dominates from the cliffs of the Freeride World Tour to the rails of Hyland Hills. And on the right, there’s now Soul 7. So… the Soul 7 is back? Not exactly. For those looking for the grand return of the Soul 7, you can turn down the volume of your Phish album —…
Since the landmark ruling from the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals overturned New Jersey’s so-called “assault weapons” ban and magazine capacity limitations law, everyone’s been asking, “What’s next?” The case Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs v. Attorney General was decided by the Third Circuit Friday, July 17 and it sent shockwaves across the country. The case is part of a three-case consolidation including Cheeseman v. Attorney General and Ellman v. Attorney General. The cases answered whether or not the government could place categorical bans on arms such as the AR-15 and…
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is attending the dignified transfer Wednesday of four U.S. service members killed in the Middle East. Trump will be at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware when the remains of the troops killed in action are returned to their families, the White House said. The ritual is one of the most somber duties of a commander-in-chief. It will be the third that Trump has attended since he launched the war in Iran in February. Speaking to reporters on his way to Dover, Trump called it “one of the hardest things to do as a…
Just days after the Third Circuit Court of Appeals struck down New Jersey’s ban on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines, a three-judge panel on the First Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld an even broader ban in Massachusetts. The panel concluded that First Circuit precedent forecloses any challenge to the gun ban. Last year, in a case known as Capen, the First Circuit upheld an earlier version of the state’s semi-auto ban using some downright tortured logic. As the panel explained on Tuesday in Recchia v. Campbell:Specifically, we considered (1) how the predecessor law’s…

This article was originally published by Kevin Duffy at Natural News. Over the weekend, I traded notes with Marc Faber—global investor and editor of The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report. One snippet from our chat set the tone: At major market tops, it isn’t uncommon to see the formation of anti-bubbles alongside bubbles. And those anti-bubbles can bottom when the bubbles peak. In fact, some of the greatest buying opportunities can take place at major tops such as 2000. If you look at some of the Old Economy rejects, the cheapest many of them ever got over the past 30 years was…
There’s no doubt that The Trace was less than pleased about the Third Circuit ruling overturning New Jersey’s ban on so-called assault weapons. The opinion made it pretty clear that, under Bruen, there’s no judicial ground for such a thing. That’s the good news, even if some people aren’t interested in listening.Over at The Trace, they opted to tell us how they really feel, including where they think it’s going to go from here.For the first time, a federal appellate court has struck down a state assault weapons ban on Second Amendment grounds. On July…
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The United States on Wednesday carried out another wave of strikes on Iran, where air defenses opened fire over the capital, Tehran. Iran launched a missile attack on a Jordanian city on Israel’s doorstep, and alerts were issued in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The 11th night of American airstrikes on Iran came as diplomatic efforts have shown little public sign of progress. Officials on both sides have dug in on their dispute over the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway for global energy that remains largely closed because of Iranian attacks. Iran has avoided…

NEW YORK (AP) — A former U.S. Army soldier was charged with arson and jailed without bail on Tuesday after prosecutors say he confessed to carrying out a fiery attack on a Manhattan federal office building where immigration hearings are held. Andrew Arrabaca, 43, plotted the attack for months and considered striking other New York City targets before setting a fire, lighting fireworks and firing a pellet gun Monday morning outside 26 Federal Plaza, Assistant U.S. Attorney Samantha Fry said. Arrabaca told investigators that he understood people could’ve been hurt or killed and that he he was willing to accept…
