Around 2010, Scott Stump realized his own children did not know what Desert Storm was. Stump had been there. A Marine, he deployed to Saudi Arabia on the last day of 1990, part of the largest American combat force assembled since Vietnam. Almost two decades later, he found that the war he fought had almost all but vanished from the country’s memory. He noticed a vague understanding of the Middle East or outright confusion with the invasion of Iraq that came later. To a generation of young Americans, and even to his own kids, it had become something closer to…
A congressional candidate charged with felony vandalism after allegedly shooting a Flock camera has received almost $12,500 from hundreds of donations towards his legal defense. Adam Lee Heimerman, 37, of Lenoir City, Tenn., is an independent candidate for Tennessee’s 2nd Congressional District. Blount County authorities arrested him July 30 and charged him with four counts of felony vandalism, claiming that Heimerman admitted to using a gun to shoot four automated license plate reader systems over the course of eight days in July. Donations began funneling when a GoFundMe was started for Heimerman on July 31, receiving $12,435 from 350 donations…
Steam users can now purchase Baldur’s Gate 3 for the lowest price that Larian Studios’ acclaimed RPG has been since the game’s launch. However, Steam users only have a few more days as of this writing to take advantage of the offer. Originally released on August 3, 2023, after an extensive early access period, Baldur’s Gate 3 quickly became a fan-favorite entry in the series. Set in the land of Faerûn, BG3 offers players different ways to play and explore all that the campaign has to offer. BG3 utilizes a custom rule set that blends Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition…
The German automaker wants to give its forthcoming RS 6 Avant and Allroad models a few more station wagon siblings. Credit: Audi Originally published by CarBuzz Despite their stodgy reputation with most American consumers, luxury-badged station wagons are actually surprisingly popular. Buyers for the long-roof Mercedes-Benz E-Class are among the company’s most fiercely loyal (and high-net-worth), while BMW saw such strong demand for the M5 Touring that it’s considering bringing the next-generation M3 wagon to America. Audi is reportedly doing the same introspection, and it’s possible that the RS 6 Avant and allroad wagons will get more siblings before the end…
When I write about something out of USA Today, it’s rarely complimentary. The same people who brought us the chainsaw bayonet freakout haven’t really improved all that much since then. So, if they decided to do something different, I feel obligated to applaud them for it. While it’s an op-ed, it’s still a piece that does what ABC News did on Monday and celebrates an act of armed citizen heroism, rather than some of the other options. In fact, the op-ed in question says we need more of what we saw over the weekend, not…
One of the more interesting elements of Silent Hill: Townfall is its departure from series convention. It’s the first full Silent Hill in first-person, yes, but it also takes place in Scotland, being the second game in the franchise to go beyond US shores after Silent Hill f. I played Silent Hill: Townfall for about three hours during a press event in LA this July, and even had some time to chat with Jon McKellan, lead writer and director of Townfall, and Motoi Okamoto, lead Silent Hill producer since 2019. Both of these men play critical roles in not just…
You’ve heard of Yellowstone. You’ve seen the Grand Teton postcards. Now it’s time to find the Wyoming that most visitors never do — where the trails are empty and the peaks are all yours. Wyoming is the least-visited state in the contiguous U.S. — which, when you consider what’s here, makes it the country’s best-kept secret. And those who do visit go to the same predictable places. But, aside from that tiny northwestern corner, Wyoming is wide open, a place where you’ll be all alone in pristine wilderness, surrounded by cirques carved by glaciers, alpine lakes the color of the…
If you’re a regular reader here, you’re probably aware of just how insufferable I find the entire line of nonsense about how the Wolford decision upended property rights. Any reading of the decision makes it clear that the justices absolutely believe businesses have a right to prohibit the exercise of gun rights on their property. It just says the state can’t make that the default position. Which has been the norm for decades, just about everywhere in the country, until very, very recently, when the vampire rule was concocted in response to Bruen. The goal of…
A U.S. Army National Guard pilot has sued United Airlines for allegedly violating his federal rights as a service member after he was denied legally protected family leave and disenfranchised from promotional opportunities and accrued retirement benefits. The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in the Southern District of Illinois, claims that United violated the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994 (USERRA) and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) as it pertains to Nathan Rogers, a warrant officer in the Army National Guard and a United Airlines employee since 2022. He remains a United employee, working…
US ruler Donald Trump is hypocritically demanding that Israeli ruler Benjamin Netanyahu pull his military forces from Lebanon and Syria, as the US increases its strikes on Iran. “They don’t want you there. You should redeploy,” Trump reportedly told the Israeli leader. Perhaps the warmongerer should take his own advice. Netanyahu insists on continuing the occupation of both Lebanon and Syria, while the US presses forward in its own war with Iran, which Israel assisted in starting. Iran, Israel, And The United States All Say That They Are Ready For War The reported push to end the occupation follows a meeting…
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump wants Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to keep pulling over vehicles, signaling his opposition Wednesday to plans announced just a day earlier to suspend most traffic stops following another string of fatal shootings. It’s not clear whether ICE will quickly reverse course and resume most stops, which have been a key tool in Trump’s immigration crackdown. Ending those stops, Trump wrote, would be “playing right into the criminal’s hands.” “We CANNOT give up one of ICE’s most important and effective Crime Fighting tools, THE TRAFFIC STOP!” Trump wrote Wednesday on his social media site.…
When the Supreme Court issues a ruling, there are ramifications. That includes cases still in the pipeline. After all, the decision might include something that the attorneys in another case can use to their advantage. Such as how Bruen killed interest balancing, which meant that other attorneys needed to adjust their arguments to exclude interest-balancing and instead provide historical analogs.Well, the Second Amendment Foundation is having to file a brief to adjust its own arguments in a challenge to the National Firearms Act.From a press release:The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed…
If you think shotgun ranges top out at 40 or 50 yards, think again. Benelli and exhibition shooter Steve Gould have officially rewritten the record books by breaking a clay target at a certified 201 yards. The first time anyone has ever accomplished the feat with a shotgun. To put that into perspective, that’s more than two football fields away. The record-setting shot came with a Benelli ETHOS SuperSport A.I. equipped with the company’s Advanced Impact (A.I.) barrel technology and loaded with Federal Heavyweight TSS No. 7 ammunition. Independent surveyors verified every distance using professional-grade equipment, making the accomplishment official.…
Perhaps one of the most commonly asked questions in automotive maintenance, as well as one of the most frequently misunderstood, is “What engine oil is best for my car?” Set foot in any auto parts store, and you’re likely to be met with immediate information overload – rows of bottles, a confusing array of viscosity grades, and various types of oil that all claim to be the right choice – the selection can be intimidating. Thankfully, the difference between the three main types of oil – conventional oil, synthetic blend, and full synthetic oil – extends well beyond just the…
Anglers in the know have heard of Colorado’s epic annual salmon run. Every autumn, nearly 20,000 kokanee salmon charge up the East and Gunnison rivers to spawn. This is when the state’s best anglers head to the high country of the Southern Rockies, setting up camp along cold mountain streams and casting into waters boiling with vibrant fish. It’s a fly fisher’s dream, and one you don’t need to go all the way to Alaska to realize. Kokanee salmon — a rare, non-native variety of landlocked sockeye — thrive in several places in the Lower 48. However, few are more…
Numerous great movies have been released in 2026 already, from the immensely successful original horror films Obsession and Backrooms to franchise heavyweights like The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. More is still to come, with highly-anticipated releases like The Odyssey, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and Dune: Part III yet to hit theaters. However, despite the year’s film success and hyped projects, not every film can meet these expectations. Not every disappointing movie is a bad movie, but they can feel like massive letdowns when audiences have been looking forward to a franchise’s return or an ambitious passion project. Some of the…
United States President Donald Trump has vowed to increase strikes on civilian infrastructure in Iran. Unless Tehran gives up and bows to US demands, Trump will initiate a ground campaign, taking the war to a whole new level. In an interview with Fox News on Tuesday, Trump commented that he would consider a ground operation “if I thought it was appropriate.” He said that while he increased the bombing campaign against Iran, other allied forces (he didn’t say which ones) could take over key strategic sites like Kharg Island. This would happen without the involvement of US troops, according to Trump.…
The U.S. Coast Guard is conducting a search and rescue mission after a boat capsized in San Francisco, leaving one person dead and another three missing. The capsizing incident was initially reported at around 4 p.m. local time on Tuesday. Emergency services rescued 13 people to shore and took three others to a local hospital, where their conditions stabilized.

A dog on board also died. U.S. Coast Guard Station New York response boats…
