President Donald Trump fired rhetorical warning shots at several governments across the globe this week. Nations from Scandinavia to the Middle East found themselves in Trump’s crosshairs, as he also doubled down on his desire to assert U.S. dominance across the Western Hemisphere.

RELATEDHours after Operation Absolute Resolve — a mission that saw U.S. forces capture Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, from their compound in Caracas…

This article was originally published by Joshua Mawhorter at The Mises Institute.  After the failures of socialism—economically, historically, and ethically—the Left-liberal intellectuals, not wanting to abandon socialism, employed several new strategies. It has been suggested that these several manifestations can be subsumed under one general category—postmodernism. After a review of postmodern philosophy and philosophical influences, Stephen Hicks explains his central argument in Explaining Postmodernism: “Postmodernism is the academic far Left’s epistemological strategy for responding to the crisis caused by the failures of socialism in theory and in practice.” In other words, once socialism was discredited theoretically, economically (in several ways), historically, and ethically, those who were still ideologically committed to…

The English and French had honored and laid to rest their unknown soldiers in 1920 — in Westminster Abbey and at the Arc de Triomphe, respectively. Then, in October 1921, it was the United States’ turn.The task of selecting a body to represent the thousands of still-unknown dead from the Great War was daunting. The United States still had not identified 1,237 dead soldiers, and, according to the U.S. Naval Institute, extraordinary care had to be taken to select a body that would not be identified later. Four bodies were exhumed from the U.S. cemeteries of Aisne-Marne, Meuse-Argonne, Somme and…

Sign up for the On The Gun Newsletter The latest for gun hunters and competitive shooters. One travesty in the world of shotguns today is that there hasn’t been an attainable over/under made in America. Berettas, Benellis, and Franchis are of course made in Italy. Browning Citoris are made in Japan. And then there’s the horde of Turkish-made O/Us, including those offered by Mossberg.  So I felt no small amount of excitement, and patriotism, when I snapped together the new Ruger Red Label III. This 20 gauge over/under has a history as an affordable, American made shotgun for the blue-collar…

What’s the probability ducks will be on the marsh? As with any speculative venture, we try to influence the outcome with preparation, routine, and a dose of magic. For some of us, maybe that’s a rabbit’s foot; for others, a special knife. Archaeologists have found bright beads and smooth stones with the excavated remains of ancient hunters. As long as we’ve hunted, it seems,…

This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at the End of the American Dream.  Things are getting very tense in the Middle East.  The Islamic radicals who are ruling Iran believe that the United States and Israel intend to use the mass protests that have been going on for nearly two weeks to try to overthrow their regime. If Ayatollah Khamenei and his top advisers reach a point where they are convinced that the Iranian government could actually fall, there is no telling what they might decide to do.  Meanwhile, President Trump has declared that the U.S. is ready…

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russia bombarded Ukraine with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles in a large-scale overnight attack, officials said Friday, killing at least four people. For only the second time, it used a new ballistic missile that it says flies at 10 times the speed of sound and is unstoppable.The intense barrage and the launching of the nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile came days after Ukraine and its allies reported major progress toward agreeing on how to defend the country from further Moscow aggression if a peace deal is struck to end Russia’s almost 4-year-old invasion.Months of U.S.-led peace…
