One of the ironic tales to emerge retrospectively from World War I concerns a young Adolf Hitler, a regimental trench-runner in the 16th Bavarian Reserve Infantry Regiment. Allegedly, his commanding officer, Hugo Gutmann, while recommending him for the Iron Cross First Class for courage under fire, denied him a promotion on the grounds that he lacked the leadership qualities. That story, true or not, makes for an interesting comparison to a trench runner in the American Expeditionary Forces, a private whose initiative — and leadership under fire — far exceeded expectations. Sterling Lewis Morelock was born on June 5, 1890,…

The nation’s most advanced aircraft carrier arrived in the Caribbean Sea on Sunday in a display of U.S. military power, raising questions about what the new influx of troops and weaponry could signal for the Trump administration’s intentions in South America as it conducts military strikes against vessels suspected of transporting drugs.The arrival of the USS Gerald R. Ford and other warships, announced by the Navy in a statement, marks a major moment in what the administration insists is a counterdrug operation but has been seen as an escalating pressure tactic against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. Since early September, U.S.…

Iran has formally requested that the United Nations hold the United States accountable for Israel’s bombing campaign. This request came after a November 6th comment by ruler Donald Trump, in which he admitted he was “very much in charge” of Israel’s attack, which was not retaliatory in nature. Trump openly acknowledged directing Israel’s initial attack on Iran. “Israel attacked first. That attack was very, very powerful. I was very much in charge of that,” Trump told reporters on November 6th. The attack Trump was referring to killed over 1,000 people, including civilians. Since the president admitted that he was “very…

THE FIRST DEER I ever killed came to me, but I was in a good place, walking a few steps at a time and making frequent stops, and looking more than moving. Otherwise I wouldn’t have seen him. That’s a method I still like. I was with another hunter on Michigan’s Drummond Island at the north end of Lake Huron. That’s good whitetail country…

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge.  At the moment, the Zelensky government is suffering embarrassment and under a global spotlight for a wide-ranging corruption case related to the country’s struggling state energy sector. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has issued some unusually strong words directed at Ukrainian leadership. In televised remarks Thursday, he revealed that he personally urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to get serious about curbing the flow of young Ukrainian men to Germany, as they need to serve in the defense of their own homeland. Merz disclosed some of the contents of his latest call.…

The Supreme Court’s new term has been dominated by high-profile battles over presidential authority. But beneath those headline cases sits another trend that TTAG readers will care about a lot more: the justices are lining up a series of gun-rights fights that could reshape how lower courts handle the Second Amendment after Bruen. We’re only a few months into the 2025–26 session, and the court has already taken two major gun cases. Several more are waiting in the wings. If the justices keep granting petitions at this pace, this term may become one of the most significant for gun rights…

This article was originally published by Vincent Cook at The Mises Institute.  Back in late June when the Senate signed off on President Trump’s legislation to alter federal spending priorities while keeping deficits stuck in the multi-trillion dollar (teradollar) range—The One Bloated Brobdingnian Bill (BBB)—the heroic Rand Paul was the only budget hawk to vote against it in opposition to deficit spending (in contrast to Democrats and a few centrist Republicans, who rejected the BBB’s shift in spending priorities away from Medicaid). Four other Senatorial budget hawks—Ron Johnson, Mike Lee, Rick Scott, and Cynthia Lummis—flipped their votes to “yes” after slightly greater Medicaid cuts…
