For years now, anti-gunners have been trying their best to push gun ownership into the fringes of society. More accurately, they tried to turn it into the dirty little secret that you might be free to take part in, but you shouldn’t talk to people about it. It’s kind of like being into freaky bedroom activities or liking the Twilight movies. You might do it, but no one can know, even if it’s legal. And, frankly, we’ve played into their hands on that. People are paranoid about even talking about owning guns out of fear…
The Department of Defense (DOD) has announced two framework agreements to expand the production capacity of missile-interceptor components. The agreements, with defense companies Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin, intend to triple the production of Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) components, and quadruple the production of Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) components. The frameworks come as part of the Arsenal of Freedom initiative, a defense initiative to modernize military technology. “Building the Arsenal of Freedom requires robust, dynamic supply chains at every level of the industrial base,” said Michael P. Duffey, Under Secretary of War for Acquisition and Sustainment, in a…
The 2000s was a critical time for the gaming industry. The monstrously successful PlayStation 2 arrived in 2000, with Microsoft’s first Xbox system and Nintendo’s iconic GameCube launching in North America the following year. This set the stage for a console generation marked by a fascinating three-way competition, and of course, some brilliant games. In particular, RPG fans had an embarrassment of riches to enjoy during the 2000s. Then as now, though, it’s just impossible to play all the games we’d like to. Even if you’ve been an RPG enthusiast for decades, there are some great games from this era…
I’ve written a lot about the Department of Justice’s schizophrenia on NFA registration of things like suppressors and short-barreled long guns. The registration was, originally, nothing more than a list of who paid the NFA tax. It was there so law enforcement could check and see if the suppressor they found was lawfully owned or not. Now that there’s no tax stamp on such devices, the registry has outlived its purpose.Easy enough, right?The problem is, though, that the DOJ that is going after everyone else over unconstitutional gun control laws is defending this travesty. Mark…
Complexity is the enemy of affordability, and cars have an affordability problem. An automobile has always been a big investment, but now, more than ever, the problems come once the car leaves the dealer’s lot. While an out-of-warranty repair or a minor collision was once somewhat affordable to fix, even the simplest-seeming parts of a car can cost thousands of dollars. A new bumper, for example, is no longer something simple and relatively inexpensive to replace. Cars Have Become Rolling Computers Credit:Â Mercedes-Benz Cars becoming rolling computers isn’t a new complaint, but we’re not talking about a fairly basic ECU chip…
The Department of Justice has launched its first litigation aimed at “sensitive places”, suing Montgomery County, Maryland for its ban on lawful concealed carry in parks, places of worship, libraries, recreational facilities, and multipurpose exhibition facilities, along with the 100-yard “buffer zone” surrounding those locations where lawful carry is also forbidden. The lawsuit follows on the heels of a similar complaint brought by a Montgomery County rabbi last week in a case supported by the New Civil Liberties Alliance. Like the DOJ’s other Second Amendment litigation, today’s lawsuit is a “pattern and practice” case brought…
Yosemite National Park is famous for iconic sights like Half Dome and El Capitan, but in recent years, it’s become almost equally famous for massive crowds. Images of swarms of people and long lines of cars have blown up on the internet, and the data backs it up. In 2026, the park is on track to receive more visitors than ever before. At the end of July, I became part of the problem, visiting the park during its peak summer tourist season. With a few key strategies, however, I managed to avoid most of the hordes of people and enjoy…
A lot of people see the rules the ATF proposes from time to time, recognize there’s a comment period, and then ignore it. Why bother? After all, the ATF is going to do what it’s going to do. The comment period is required by law, but there doesn’t seem to be any imperative to actually listen to those comments. If there were, there are a lot of anti-gun rules that would never have gone into effect if they had been.Right now, the ATF is considering a pile of new rules, and the comment period is…

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…
A man pleaded guilty Wednesday to strangling his active-duty military spouse on multiple occasions while they were both overseas, and then lying to federal authorities about his actions. Antonio Jabar Floyd Jr., 38, of Florida, strangled his wife once in 2025 and again in 2026 while he was living with her overseas in Misawa, Japan, according to a Justice Department press release issued Wednesday. The wife’s service information was not provided. He pleaded guilty to two counts of domestic violence (strangulation) and one count of making false statements to a federal agency. He will be sentenced on Oct. 15 and…

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…
