Recent security footage reveals that the suspected pipe bomber from the January 6 Capitol riot made an unreported stop at the Congressional Black Caucus building prior to planting explosive devices outside the DNC and RNC headquarters. Chairman Barry Loudermilk of the House Judiciary subcommittee, which is investigating security lapses around the Capitol that day, confirmed this finding and noted that no explosive device was located at the Black Caucus site, sparking inquiries about the suspect’s motives. This new evidence complicates the timeline established by the FBI, which previously stated the bomber did not stop at the Black Caucus building. The…
Linseed oil may be the oldest wood finish known to man, with evidence of linseed oil finishes being applied to wood as far back as ancient Egypt. It’s been a favorite treatment for firearm stocks since the invention of gunpowder and has been used by the Springfield Armory on just about every wood-stocked U.S. military arm. An annual application of linseed oil to your antique military stocks will not only keep them looking good but will also help prevent damage like dry rot and shrinkage cracks during storage. Applying a linseed oil finish is surprisingly easy, if done correctly. However,…
As the end of the calendar year approaches, and new firearms and related products continue to become available, we’re reminded that, while gear is important, training safely with it while developing familiarity is just as vital.

He writes, “Despite the fact that many good self-loading shotguns are available on the market, there are still those who prefer the…
As a Minnesota-based writer, I spent quite a few years covering news related to wolves. In fact, two topics that I really can’t stand to discuss anymore are wolves and CWD. It’s not that I’m not interested or concerned about either, but at some point, it’s like eating the same meal over and over. You just lose your appetite for it.That only gets exacerbated by the feeling that, as an individual, you can’t really do anything about either topic except fight with strangers online about it, which is about as healthy as eating gravel for breakfast. Neither issue is going…

The bewildering truth behind human technological enslavement is that it is impossible without the voluntary participation of the intended slaves. People must welcome technocracy into their lives in order for it to succeed. The populace has to believe, blindly, that they cannot live without it, or that authoritarianism by algorithmic consensus is “inevitable.” For example, the average person living in a first world economy voluntarily carries a cell phone everywhere they go at all times without fail. To be without it, in their minds, is to be naked, at risk, unprepared and disconnected from civilization. I grew up in the…
