Slate announced the price of its back-to-basics electric pickup truck in June, but not the destination charge. That fee is a mandatory, non-negotiable price that every automaker adds to the sticker, and it can vary from company to company. Much attention has been given to destination fees in the last several years, as they’ve steadily increased across the board. So when Slate said its barebones truck started at $24,950, it fell squarely into Slate’s mid-$20,000 range the company promised. But we also knew the destination charge would change that – possibly by a significant margin. So, is this still a…

In a statement on Tuesday, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) accused Washington of acting like “pirates” by restricting energy flows in the region. The IRGC further warned that regional oil and gas exports could be blocked completely in response to the United States’ attempts to control the Strait of Hormuz. “Regional oil and gas exports are either for everyone or for no one,” the statement said. This warning came as the IRGC claimed a new strike on US military infrastructure in Bahrain, which hosts the US Navy’s Fifth Fleet and serves as one of Washington’s main naval hubs in…

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has found another city in the Sunshine State that appears to be non-compliant with the state’s carry laws. Uthmeier has sent a letter to officials in Winter Garden, Florida warning that the prohibition on “weapons” and “firearms” at the city’s Tucker Ranch Recreation and Nature Complex is illegal and the “no guns allowed” signs must be removed.  Uthmeier’s missive notes that Florida’s firearm preemption law prohibits political subdivisions like the Orlando suburb of Winter Garden from setting their own policies on firearms, and calls out another locality that impermissibly crossed…

Everyone in the Second Amendment community is rightly overjoyed that at long last, the Supreme Court will be deciding whether so-called “assault weapon” bans are constitutional. These bans on some of the most common guns in the country exist in about 10 or so states and prevent millions of Americans from owning AR-15s and similar rifles.  SAF is particularly ecstatic given that both cases granted review – Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins – are cases in which the organization is a plaintiff.The question presented, which the Court will answer, is: “Whether the Second and…

100 strangers recently attended a ceremony to honor two dead veterans in Tallahasee, Fla., after no family members came forward to claim their remains. The ceremony took place on Monday in appreciation of the veterans—Glenn Dorsey, a U.S. Marine Corps Vietnam veteran, and Mark Roy, a U.S. Army veteran—who had been considered “unclaimed” after no relatives, friends or legal representatives had said they were linked to the deceased men, according to the Tallahassee Democrat. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) uses the term “unclaimed veterans” to refer to situations where a next of kin or family member is known but…

This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News.  We Are Sleepwalking into a Global Collapse The mainstream media obsesses over oil prices. Every time a barrel jumps a few dollars, the pundits wring their hands. But they are missing the real story — the one that will crash civilization long before a gas pump runs dry. What I see, from my years tracking global supply chains, is a nightmare hidden beneath the headlines: the war with Iran is severing the arteries that carry downstream commodities — aluminum, fertilizer, diesel, plastics, helium — the very things that make…

Washington state used to be fairly pro-gun, then all the Silicon Valley types moved in, started voting for the same kind of policies that made staying in California untenable, and will learn nothing when they run somewhere else. One of the policies these kinds of folks supported was gun control. They were convinced they had to have it, and nothing would do until they got it, so a ballot initiative started the ball rolling. Since then, they’ve continued to pass anti-gun laws.Luckily for them, the efficacy of those gun laws appears strong because homicide rates…

It’s not every day that the U.S. Navy christens a new missile destroyer ship, with plans to name it after a Korean War hero. But it happened last week in Pascagoula, Miss., the USS George M. Neal had an official champagne commissioning on its bow with the family of the late prisoner of war, George M. Neal, on hand to witness the honor. “It was a very proud time for myself, my brother and my entire family,” Kelley Neal Gray, the daughter of the ship’s namesake, told Military.com. “I’m so happy my dad is being recognized in this way.” He…

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — The United States intensified its strikes on Iran early Thursday, hitting targets further north as American forces also fired into a ship the U.S. accused of trying to break its naval blockade on the Islamic Republic. Iran retaliated with missile and drone fire targeting U.S. allies in the region before dawn and warned its attacks may escalate. Days of back-and-forth strikes by the U.S. and Iran across the Middle East — and renewed threats to the Strait of Hormuz — have shredded the interim deal to end the Iran war and could tip the…

Veterans have unveiled an artwork to raise awareness about the mental health issues veterans face. The artwork, a sculpture called “Silent Battle” created by the artist Anita Miller in 2018, will be housed in Casper, Wy., to destigmatize mental health issues and encourage veterans to talk about their experiences. The bronze sculpture depicts Brian Zimmerman—a U.S. Army Gulf War veteran who lost friends to suicide—sitting on the floor with his head tipped down. In his hand, he holds a dog tag of a friend. Dean Welch, a committee member for Silent Battle Casper who served four years in the Navy…
