Editors Note: This article first appeared on The War Horse, an award-winning nonprofit news organization educating the public on military service, under the headline “They’ve Never Been Arrested. Why Does the FBI List Thousands of Service Members as Potential Criminals?” Subscribe to their newsletter.Denise Rosales has never been arrested.She’s never been handcuffed.She’s never spent a night behind bars, never stood before a judge to profess her innocence.And yet, if you perform a background check, a criminal database maintained by the FBI will say that she was “arrested or received” into custody and charged with three crimes in January 2021.While deployed…
Since the early days of the Cold War, the early warning radars on Greenland have been a linchpin for defending North America against nuclear attack by intercontinental ballistic missiles.But the radars themselves are vulnerable to attack by hypersonic missiles, critics warn. U.S. bases in Greenland can neither detect those missiles, nor shoot them down.“The U.S. does not have a standing integrated air and missile defense shooter layer in Greenland today,” Troy Bouffard, director of the Center for Arctic Security and Resilience at the University of Alaska, told Defense News.“The new and future threat of hypersonic cruise missiles has changed everything,…
It was a scene that played out countless times in homes across America during World War II: A young soldier, home on leave, making his tearful goodbyes to his family before shipping out to fight in some faraway land.On Feb. 28, 1943, a 20-year-old draftee, who was inducted into the U.S. Army at Fort Snelling in his hometown of St. Paul, Minnesota, said a particularly painful farewell. For the very last time, he addressed his mother, who was near death from cervical cancer.“Goodbye, Sparky,” said his bedridden mother, Dena, who was 48. “We’ll probably never see each other again.” She…
This article was originally published by Kevin Hughes at Natural News. Millions participated in the second wave of “No Kings” demonstrations, with over 2,700 events and an estimated seven million attendees, marking one of the largest coordinated civil actions in U.S. history. Investigative researchers claim the movement is heavily funded by left-wing billionaires (Soros, Ford Foundation, Rockefeller) funneling hundreds of millions through opaque dark-money networks, despite protesters insisting their motivations are grassroots and personal. Protesters included veterans, students and civil rights icons, with emotional appeals against Trump’s policies, while symbolic imagery (inflatable frogs, Revolutionary War attire, Epstein-linked signs) dominated rallies.…
Two weeks ago, the end of the war on terror — the war I fought in — drew one step closer when the Senate approved an amendment withdrawing the 2002 authorization for the use of military force that approved American military action in Iraq. The United States recently entered the final stages of planning a memorial to it, to be placed next to the Lincoln and Vietnam Veterans Memorials. While laudable, if the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) Memorial is to have lasting meaning, it cannot be built as a static shrine. The war on terror is unlike any conflict…
‘AI Told Me Duck Season Was Open,’ and Other Reasons Officials Are Warning Hunters Not to Rely on AI
Sign up for the Outdoor Life Newsletter Get the hottest outdoor news—plus a free month of onX Hunt Elite. It’s hard to argue with the convenience of AI-generated searches and chatbots, which spit out immediate answers to almost any question we can think of. But when it comes to hunting and fishing regulations, those results are often plain wrong. That’s according to officials in multiple states who are seeing a growing problem as more outdoorsmen rely on AI to check hunting regs. In the last week alone, both Idaho Fish & Game and the Wyoming Game & Fish Department have…
California lawmakers are demanding answers after a live fire demonstration over Camp Pendleton Saturday led to a misfire that rained shrapnel on Interstate 5, striking two California Highway Patrol vehicles.An artillery shell exploded over the freeway during a celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Marine Corps, attended by Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Pieces of shrapnel scattered on the closed roadway and struck a patrol vehicle and motorcycle.“I was very disappointed, because I hoped we could celebrate the Marine Corps without undue risk,” Rep. Mike Levin, a Democrat from San Clemente and Carlsbad who…

This story, “Gambling for Gambel’s,” is republished as it appeared in the December 1946 issue, and therefore reflects the language and stereotypes of the times. PERHAPS it’s simply luck. Perhaps it’s some sort of obscure instinct which guides a hunter. Or possibly it is as the Indians believe — if you live right and observe the proper rituals, the spirits of the woods and prairies will take you by the hand and lead you to good hunting. I know that for…
The United States military is currently operating in the Caribbean with about 10,000 troops under orders to take care of “drug boats”. On September 30th, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro declared a state of external emergency, which fundamentally changed what the U.S. is facing in the region. Venezuela’s military is on full wartime alert, and equipped with Russian air defenses and anti-ship missiles, backed by what Maduro claims is a militia of over 8 million members. This is in response to the U.S.’s obvious war crimes, after bombing and destroying civilian boats under the guise of “drug trafficking.” U.S. Strikes A…

Bird flu is once again making its way into headlines. Cambodia is currently tracking the H5N1 bird flu in a human girl, while China has seen an uptick in cases of the H9N2 strain of the virus.
