“Very hard” and “won’t last much longer” is the same thing every administration says right before a war grinds on for years. Blowing up radar and mine-laying equipment near Hormuz sounds decisive on paper, but Iran doesn’t need a functioning military to keep this going indefinitely, it needs the will…

Aero Precision was a big enough name in the gun manufacturing space that it’s going away made some news. For a lot of people, that was bad news. They liked the company for low-cost AR-15 components. While they weren’t the only source for these, more sources mean more competition,…

The Pentagon has temporarily rescinded the mandatory testosterone-screening guidance it issued just a day earlier, removing the document from its website while saying interim guidance remains in effect.

On Oct. 3, 1993—three decades ago—what began as a short raid by Task Force Ranger in Mogadishu became an all-night fight for survival after two Black Hawks were shot down. As U.S. soldiers dug in around the crash sites, the rescue that finally broke through was a combined UN column…

Having a weapon gives you a clear advantage in an altercation. It’s why we view introducing a weapon into an argument or fight as something pretty serious. The thing is, not all weapons are created equal. There are less lethal weapons, obviously, and lethal ones. Even among lethal weapons,…

Authorities have arrested a U.S. Air Force member and his aunt, claiming they participated in an immigration fraud scheme. The two are accused of cooking up a scheme wherein they posed as mother and son in order for the Airman, John Paul Rivera, 30, to fraudulently obtain a green card,…

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has either fired myriad senior officers, or blocked the promotions of more than 80 generals and admirals during his tenure, reimagining the Pentagon at a rapid pace. This turnover is not a single event but three overlapping ones. Hegseth is cutting the number of senior positions…

The District of Columbia is, ironically, the seat of power for the freest nation on Earth, but is one of the least free cities in the country. I’d ask for someone to make it make sense, but I doubt that’s possible. Some of those laws…

When a study says static stretching does not prevent injuries and makes you weaker when lifting, it is usually referring to all injuries, such as fractures, scrapes, or contusions. Stretching does not help prevent these, and measuring injury prevention is another science unto itself. The science that documents temporarily losing…

If the stores and restaurants shut down, where would you go for food? In a world where modern conveniences vanish, your survival may hinge on your ability to grow your own food. While hunting and foraging can supplement your diet, having a garden full of high-calorie, nutrient-dense crops ensures a…

A U.S. Air Force base has ceased extending religious greetings at its gates to uniformed members following the reported intervention of an anti-discrimination organization. The Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF), which has more than 100,000 members including both active-duty and veteran service members from different services and myriad ranks, said…

The Bruen decision may have made some things too muddy for some anti-gun activists — and by that, I mean they now have to actually show why a law is constitutional rather than just coast — but one thing was perfectly clear. Everyone was entitled to due process, meaning…

There is outrage in the Hopkinsville, Ky., community after the grave markers of more than two dozen veterans were desecrated and stolen for their expensive bronze design.

The U.S. and Iran have intensified tit-for-tat military strikes in recent days, remaining locked between ceasefire and all-out war as the White House struggles to end the six-month conflict. “Very clearly militarily, we are stalled,” Republican Representative Pat Harrigan of North Carolina, who sits on the House Armed Services Committee,…

I won’t call this a mass shooting, even if the media is, but it’s still a horrific enough scene in Minneapolis this morning. Two people are dead, and six others were injured, including three police officers, in an incident that had the police showing up to something that was…

KUOPIO, Finland (AP) — In a civil defense shelter hewn into rock, behind doors designed to withstand a nuclear or biological attack, two Finnish conscripts wearing hazmat suits and breathing masks are measuring radiation levels as they take part in an exercise to turn a cave into a place of…
