A Washington high school wrestler’s Supreme Court fight could help bring restrictions on transgender athletes in girls’ sports to 23 states, an attorney representing her told OutKick.Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) senior counsel Hal Frampton said the ultimate objective is a ruling establishing that Title IX requires a protected female sports category, with consequences beyond the immediate request to protect wrestler Kallie Keeler.”And the hope would be then that that would force all 23 of those states to enact policies protecting women and girls, protecting the female category, and simply getting back to the common sense notion that women’s sports are for women,” Frampton said.WASHINGTON FAMILY REQUESTS SCOTUS INJUNCTION AFTER DAUGHTER WAS ALLEGEDLY SEXUALLY ASSAULTED BY TRANS ATHLETEKeeler, identified in court as K.M.K., and her mother, Stephanie Lynne Brown, are seeking intervention after Keeler alleged she was sexually assaulted by a transgender opponent during a girls’ wrestling match in December 2025.”Ultimately, the goal is a ruling from the Supreme Court that says that Title IX requires fairness and safety for women and girls,” Frampton said.Asked whether that broader objective could be accomplished through the current Supreme Court application or would require further steps, Frampton called it “a huge step toward accomplishing…

The Pentagon inked a five-year contract with Raytheon for the steady production of ballistic missile interceptors that use force to destroy targets, rather than explosives. The $6.3 billion contract, which provides two additional option years, will see Raytheon provide the Defense Department with a continuous supply of Standard Missile-3 Block IB interceptors manufactured primarily in Tucson, Arizona and Huntsville, Alabama. “SM-3 Block IB has proven its relevance in combat and this contract helps ensure we can replenish inventories and keep pace with the evolving threats the U.S. Navy, MDA and their partners face around the world,” Raytheon President Phil Jasper said in a statement. The SM-3 Block IB interceptor belongs to a larger family of “hit-to-kill” SM-3 missile interceptors, which seek and destroy incoming ballistic missiles using sheer speed and momentum. The Block IB type can be used by land forces and ships and is frequently deployed on vessels due to its range and highly flexible steering. The interceptor tracks flying targets with a two-color infrared seeker and propels itself towards them in short bursts, giving it accuracy at high speed as it homes in on targets. It is designed to knock short- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles out of the…

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Friday that agents arrested another suspected co-conspirator linked to the ShinyHunters hacking group earlier this week, as the bureau investigates a cybersecurity incident involving its jobs website.The arrest is the latest in a series of FBI actions against the hacking network in recent days, according to Patel, who said investigators are pursuing additional leads and evidence.”Earlier this week, our agents in the field arrested another suspected co-conspirator of the ShinyHunters group – the group believed to be responsible for the recent FBIjobs.gov incident, which occurred on a platform managed by a third-party vendor,” Patel said in an Oct. 9 statement.FBI INVESTIGATES AFTER SHINYHUNTERS HACKERS CLAIM THEFT OF AGENTS’ PERSONAL DATA Patel said the FBI is working with its partners to dismantle the group and its associates.”This arrest demonstrates the strength and reach of our efforts to protect Americans from cybercrime.

The U.S. military plans to livestream the Dec. 3 execution by firing squad of Nidal Hasan, the former Army psychiatrist convicted of killing 13 people in the 2009 Fort Hood shooting.If carried out as planned, death penalty experts said it would mark the first known broadcast or livestream of a lawful execution.Executions are generally conducted behind prison walls, and internet platforms and governments have spent years trying to limit the circulation of violent execution footage.Has a lawful execution ever been livestreamed or broadcast to the public before? Death penalty experts consulted by Reuters said they were unaware of any previous lawful execution that had been livestreamed or broadcast to a public audience.Execution footage has occasionally emerged after the event. The hanging of former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein in 2006, for example, was seen around the world after official and unofficial recordings circulated online and through broadcasters, though it was not shown live.Broadcasts and livestreams today are common for court proceedings, parliamentary debates and other state functions, but not for judicial executions.How unusual is this compared with modern execution practices around the world? Public executions have become rare worldwide, with most countries that retain the death penalty carrying out executions away…

You heard that right, pardners: Blade Show West, the rootin’ tootin’ younger brother to venerable Atlanta’s Blade Show, is upon us. While not as big as its bigger brother, Blade Show West has been growing steadily and offers not only a Who’s Who of the knife industry on the exhibition floor, but some special events running today and tomorrow. Blade Show West is just a sprat, having first run in 2018 – although in point of fact it is actually the middle child of the Blade Show family, with Blade Show Texas the youngest, first running in 2022. It has taken place in different locations over its young life, including Portland, Oregon, which is widely considered to be the knife making capital of the United States. This year it is being held in Salt Lake City, Utah, a state that is no slouch when it comes to knife making history – nor are its geographical neighbors Colorado and Idaho. Of course, Blade Show West doesn’t just draw the locals. Among the 250+ exhibitors this year are companies from all over the world, including We Knife Co. and its associated brands from China, Italy’s Fox Knives, and Three Rivers MFG, located…

When they saw a car on its side, three soldiers — traveling independently — pulled over to help. But when one soldier approached the vehicle, the threat changed. Suddenly, treating any injuries from the car crash became secondary to disarming a knife-wielding woman attacking her two children at the scene. During his Monday morning commute to work at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington, Sgt. 1st Class Jeff Hytower spotted the crash on Interstate 5 and pulled over to assist. Then he saw the weapon. “I just jumped up, it was just instinct,” the practical nursing specialist instructor said in an Army release published Wednesday, adding “that’s when the training kicks in.”Another soldier, Sgt. Ricardo A. Nunez, a soldier in the 7th Infantry Division (Multi-Domain Command-Pacific), arrived at the crash and helped Hytower disarm and restrain the woman. Meanwhile, Sgt. Alex McKay, a Washington National Guard medic, got to work caring for one of the injured children, who she later described as “very afraid, but also very, very brave.” McKay said she did exactly what she trained for. “As a medic, my number one priority was pulling the child a safe distance away from the immediate threat, where she would be…
