In tactical professions (military, police, firefighter, EMT), athletic specialization is a liability. Being too good at one athletic event often has an equal and opposite weakness. For instance, a 600-pound deadlift won’t help you on Mile 12 of a heavy ruck march, and a sub-5-minute mile won’t help you drag…

The conversation around veteran suicide prevention has grown considerably in recent years: more funding, more programs, more technology, more public awareness. What has not grown at the same pace is the understanding of one of the most significant risk factors driving that suicide rate: traumatic brain injury. Veterans diagnosed with…

The Department of Veterans Affairs began enrolling veterans in its first-ever clinical trial of therapy assisted by MDMA, or Ecstasy, in May 2026.

Despite the Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA) home loan being available to millions of eligible veterans, the program continues to be misconstrued and underutilized.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered a sweeping review of the military justice and legal system, describing the effort as a push to eliminate bureaucracy and refocus military lawyers on combat effectiveness and operational readiness. The Pentagon announced in recent weeks that Hegseth directed a department-wide evaluation of military legal…

When our Founding Fathers crafted the Bill of Rights, it was with the understanding that these weren’t rights being created by the state, but being expressly preserved in order to keep the fledgling nation from potentially falling into tyranny. They saw natural rights as something innate in people that…

FEMA is a somewhat controversial government agency. Some people love FEMA because they bring food and supplies after a disaster. Other people hate them because they don’t bring enough food and supplies after a disaster (or not quickly enough). Some people say FEMA is inefficient and a waste of tax…

You know an HOA has gone too far when even people who normally ignore HOA drama suddenly start paying attention. This week, Colion Noir unloaded on a Florida homeowners association after residents in the Tradition community of Port St. Lucie received a letter announcing firearms were no longer allowed in…
