Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadTalking about civil war preparedness isn’t something I enjoy. However, with tensions as high as they are—and nearly half the country believing it’s likely—it’s something we need to consider. A 2024 Marist poll found that 47% of Americans believe a second civil war could happen in their lifetime. When you consider the political anger, the cultural divide, and the daily signs of growing hostility, it’s not hard to see why. Add to that the foreign governments and domestic agitators who benefit from keeping us angry and divided. Then factor in how fast information—true or…

Native American veterans who want to buy, build, or improve a home on federal trust land have access to a unique benefit: the Native American Direct Loan (NADL) program. It offers eligible military families a path to homeownership that’s specifically designed for buying homes on tribal land, where traditional mortgage financing has historically been out of reach. Since Congress established the program in 1992 under Public Law 102-547, the VA has signed Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with 118 tribal governments, and the program continues to expand. In February 2026, the VA signed an MOU with the Squaxin Island Tribe in…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadThis episode and article were inspired by a great listener question from E. Hunter, who asked: “As an 18-year-old living with my parents, how would I go about getting my parents onboard with prepping?” That question’s probably not one a lot of you are wondering—especially because, let’s face it, most preppers are old enough to be the parents or grandparents in this situation. That’s what makes this topic so interesting — it flips the usual dynamic. So, Hunter, you’re ready to take preparedness seriously, but your parents? Not so much. Maybe they brush it…

If you follow watch culture at all, you’ll quickly realize that “watch people” take their stuff pretty seriously. Maybe that’s why Christopher Ward is such a breath of fresh air. With the release of the C60 Pool Diver ($1,475 with a steel Bader bracelet, and $1,250 with an Aquaflex rubber strap), Christopher Ward offers a super-functional watch with a sense of humor. It’s self-deprecating in ways few brands try to be. And realistically, it’s much more in tune with how most people actually use a dive watch. The Pool Diver is a follow-up to the wildly popular Desk Diver watch,…

Throughout most of our nation’s history, gun control was a relatively rare thing. It existed, but it was an oppressive system designed to disarm groups that were viewed unfavorably by the public at large. Those included black men and women, Native Americans, and Catholics. Because “Catholic” was a race or something. I don’t understand it, either. Still, those laws were there specifically to keep certain groups from exercising their civil liberties. This is well known and well documented.Also well documented, though not as well known, was that the so-called Wild West was one of the…

Some interviews are controversial because the guest says something outrageous. Others are controversial because the guest says something many people don’t want to hear. Heather Mac Donald’s recent interview with John Stossel falls firmly into the second category. The Manhattan Institute scholar touched on several third-rail topics, including race, policing, gun violence, media coverage, and what she sees as the unintended consequences of anti-police rhetoric. Whether you agree with her conclusions or not, the interview stands out because it challenges several narratives that have become conventional wisdom in much of the legacy media. Mac Donald’s central argument is simple: America…

Under Hawaii’s “sensitive places” law, all government buildings are “gun-free zones,” at least in theory. Like most supposedly sensitive places, though, many of those locations feature no special security measures; no magnetometers, no armed guards, and no secured entrances. They’re sensitive in name only, and their “gun-free” status essentially depends on an honor code.  The inability of these Sensitive In Name Only locations to keep people safe and secure was on full display recently in Maui, where a man stands accused of brandishing a pistol at county employees in a planning office in Wailuku a…

Forced to dig his own grave in Iraq, Fabrizio Quattrocchi answered his killers with one final act of raw defiance. This is a hard look at death, faith, courage, and the Italian who refused to die quietly. Death, Faith, and the Question Fabrizio Quattrocchi Forces Us to Face Today, we are going to talk about some pretty dark stuff. Death rightfully makes people uncomfortable. It is the innately unknowable nature of the thing that leaves folks so predictably discomfited. We all have theories. However, by definition, if somebody is talking about it, they’ve not yet actually given it a whirl…
