You can present a bead on a centerpin outfit, spinning rod, or fly rod, but the method isn’t as cut and dry as it…

Bonta, the challenge to California’s ban on switchblades. The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) also filed a brief in that case. The NRA/NSSF brief stated: “The Supreme Court held that bans on common arms violate…

The White House has set a hard deadline for Hamas to accept the deal, threatening unprecedented military escalation if rejected. The plan includes a ceasefire, prisoner releases, and international oversight—but excludes Palestinian statehood.
