Another step, and two deer scooted from a foggy clearing. But their dash into the alders suggested they’d not go far. Circling downwind, I drifted onto a deer trail, pausing at each step, glassing not yards ahead but feet. Then: a glint from the shadows. Stay still! Presently, beside the eye, an antler came clear. My bullet struck below the burr. Almost any rifle and load could have claimed that blacktail. But hunters don’t bet their fortunes on arms that suffice only for brain shots at 20 feet. New game bullets with polymer noses and high ballistic coefficients help the .308 extend its reach. So it was that a .308 also joined me in the Uintas. The elk were winning when, the last morning, a distant bellow sifted through the aspens. Dodging deadfall, I closed at a run. There! A long tine winked. A short dash ahead, a tree steadied the rifle. My Nosler drove from flank to scapula. The bull crashed away, then faltered. A second shot felled him. Professional hunters in Africa like rifles in .308 caliber because of their good performance and easy shooting: “Instead of flinching and missing, clients kill game.” After six decades afield, I’ve found no…

China has emerged as a “winner” with regard to oil sales. The country has been “aggressively” selling its reserve oil to a world experiencing a shortage and sky-high prices thanks to the United States and Israel’s war with Iran. China had accumulated a cool 1.5 billion barrels in its strategic petroleum reserve with a goal to become the world’s largest strategic petroleum reserve when the time arises. That time looks like it could be now. U.S. Begins Blockade of Strait of Hormuz Iranian Official Warns of $200 Oil Prices Amid Escalating Strait of Hormuz Tensions “What has been happening in the last two or three weeks is actually they have been aggressively selling crude oil,” Mercuria CEO Marco Dunand said at the FT Commodities Global Summit in Lausanne on Tuesday. “They’ve taken out a lot of demand from various countries and offered aggressively in tenders.” China has been capitalizing on this energy crisis as it releases its reserve barrels of oil to its mainland, and it continues the sale of Iranian oil. But the most important thing Dunand said was his response to the question of how long this lasts: “How long can they do this for? I think the guess would be probably…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! One of Anthropic’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) philosophy architects argued that intentional discrimination could be a way to combat stigmas on topics of race and gender.In a 2023 paper authored alongside a number of other AI researchers, Amanda Askell, a philosopher hired by Anthropic to develop their AI’s moral compass, argued companies might benefit from a kind of overcorrection toward stereotypes.But, the paper explained, that would require human input on how to modify its answers.”Larger models can over-correct, especially as the amount of [human input] training increases. This may be desirable in certain contexts, such as those in which decisions attempt to correct for historical injustices against marginalized groups, if doing so is in accordance with local laws,” Askell wrote.PALANTIR’S SHYAM SANKAR: AMERICANS ARE ‘BEING LIED TO’ ABOUT AI JOB DISPLACEMENT FEARS The comment referred to an experiment on how Anthropic’s models dealt with the race of students.”In the discrimination experiment, the 175B parameter model discriminates against Black versus White students by 3% in the Q condition and discriminates in favor of Black students by 7% in the Q+IF+CoT condition,” the paper notes, referring to one AI trained without human corrections and a…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., wants to extend protections for Haitian migrants, and Republicans say it’s a perfect example of him putting the interests of illegal immigrants over Americans. Schumer fast-tracked a House-passed bill that would extend the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) of Haitian migrants for three years earlier this week onto the Senate schedule. Whether it actually makes it to the floor is ultimately up to Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D.The top Senate Democrat’s desire to pass the legislation in the Senate comes at an inflection point for both the protected status of Haitian migrants and a funding battle started, in part, over immigration operations in the country.  HOUSE REPUBLICANS DEFY TRUMP TO SHIELD HAITIANS FROM DEPORTATIONSen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., who led negotiations for Senate Republicans to try to strike a compromise deal to end the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown, told Fox News Digital, “I’m so glad that he is prioritizing people who are not American consistently.””What about the countless Americans that have died at the hands of illegal aliens? I mean, the fact that you’re literally trying to defund the organization that is tasked with keeping our…

This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream.  This is the worst of times for U.S. farmers. Coming into 2026, we were already in the midst of the worst farming crisis in at least 50 years. Now the war in the Middle East has caused fertilizer prices to go absolutely haywire, and a historic drought has created nightmare conditions for farmers from coast to coast. What we are witnessing is truly unprecedented. One recent survey discovered that 70 percent of U.S. farmers won’t be able to afford all of the fertilizer that they need this year. When have we ever seen that happen before? And some farmers are telling us that they may not plant anything at all this year due to extreme drought. If the information in this article shocks you, that is good, because we all need a major league wake-up call right now. The Strait of Hormuz is the most important chokepoint on the entire planet, and as I write this article, there are hundreds of commercial vessels on both sides of the Strait that are unable to travel through it… Hundreds of commercial tankers are stranded on both sides of…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A second person was arrested Wednesday in connection with last week’s chaotic snowball fight in Washington Square Park, during which multiple police officers were struck and injured by flying snowballs, police reportedly said.Eric Wilson Jr., 18, was charged with misdemeanor obstructing government administration and harassment, the New York Police Department (NYPD) said, Fox 5 New York reported. Wilson turned himself in Wednesday morning, according to the New York Post.”This second arrest sends an important message,” Hendry, president of the Police Benevolent Association (PBA), said. “These shameful attacks on our police officers last week were serious. It wasn’t a game. It didn’t end when the snow melted. This was a vicious attack on our police officers and, our police officers, it had consequences on them.”The snowball fight erupted last Monday as an organized event promoted on social media. When NYPD officers reportedly arrived to contain the crowd, they were pelted with snowballs that allegedly contained rocks. Two officers went to the hospital for treatment of head and facial injuries, the PBA said. Following the incident, authorities released images of four individuals and made their first arrest three days later. Gusmane Coulibaly, 27, was the…

The Pentagon has identified one deceased soldier and listed another as a “believed to be casualty,” the fifth and sixth soldiers killed by Iran in a March 1 drone strike that hit Port Shuaiba, Kuwait.Maj.

The History Channel has dropped the first look at its upcoming World War II documentary starring America’s favorite actor-turned-Second World War documentary voiceover extraordinaire: Tom Hanks. Premiering on May 25, the whopping 20-part series is set to uncover “new dimensions of the conflict,” according to the History Channel. From “the decisions that shaped the battlefield, the unseen networks that sustained the war effort, and the aftershocks that still shape our world today,” the documentary entitled “World War II with Tom Hanks” offers a definitive retelling of the most destructive war in human history. “For six dark years,” comes Hanks’ voice in the teaser trailer, “the world was on fire.”It was a war that toppled empires and reshaped the modern world, but it didn’t just begin as German tanks rolled into Poland, nor did it just escalate with Operation Barbarossa or the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It was a war that was fomented in the 1920s and 1930s throughout beer halls in Germany and in Manchuria, China, Abyssinia (Ethiopia), Spain and beyond. With over 20 hours of footage, this is a fact that “World War II with Tom Hanks” does not appear to gloss over. “World War II changed everything…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Tensions boiled over in a second-round Sun Belt Conference women’s basketball tournament game between South Alabama and Coastal Carolina.A fight erupted with just over five minutes left in the fourth quarter, and a referee was inadvertently knocked to the floor. The official remained on the court in visible discomfort for several moments as medical personnel provided aid.The game’s other referee assessed a double technical foul, leading to eight ejections, most of them from South Alabama’s roster. South Alabama’s Amyah Sutton, Daniela Gonzalez, Saneea Bevley, Terren Coffil, Princess Okafor Nweze and Jeriyah Baines were reportedly among the Jaguars ejected, while Coastal Carolina’s Tracey Hueston was also tossed.The altercation began after Coastal Carolina’s Hueston and South Alabama’s Cordasia Harris exchanged words in the paint. The situation escalated when Hueston appeared to throw a punch toward Harris, prompting coaches and players from both teams to rush onto the court.”Well, first of all, our program, we never want to be put in that situation. And we never want to act out like that. So, we don’t condone that, what happened today. It’s a very unfortunate situation for two talented basketball teams that have played in Pensacola…

A U.S. Special Operations Command major who saved a comrade from being dragged away by enemy fighters in Afghanistan in 2012 has been authorized by the U.S. House and Senate to receive the nation’s highest combat valor award. A bill that would authorize the president to award the Medal of Honor to Maj. Nicholas Dockery received unanimous approval in the Senate Tuesday night after Sen Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, brought it up for a vote along with bills to award two other Medals of Honor. Dockery, 41, who works at U.S. Special Operations Command’s office in the Pentagon, was recognized as Military Times’ Soldier of the Year in 2022. At the time, he was the only Army officer to have been awarded two Silver Stars for valor in the post-9/11 era, and the only living military officer to have done so. This congressional authorization, first introduced in the House, would upgrade one of those Silver Stars by two awards. Dockery, then a lieutenant, had been deployed to Afghanistan’s Kapisa province as a platoon leader with 2nd Battalion, 12th Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team (Light). While working closely with an Afghan platoon to provide security for the provincial governor’s compound on…

The good folks at RoseCraft are prepping their second 14C28N steel model for release. The Hatchie River Jack will make good use of the work-ready steel with its time-tested jack knife characteristics. We imagine that RoseCraft’s crew loves all traditional patterns, but there’s clearly a special place in their collective heart for the timeless, the classic, always-popular single-blade jack knife. And we get it: if any folding knife design can lay claim to being the Platonic Ideal of the everyday carry, it would probably be the jack knife. A single adequately-sized blade and a super simple, no-frills handle will never go out of style. The bomb shield sits on the show side cover The Hatchie River Jack’s clip point has the low-slung proportions of the clips seen on the Muskrat-pattern traditionals – although it’s a bit larger, at 3 inches in length, and wider, than the usual blade on a Muskrat. There won’t be all that much in the usual gamut of everyday carry chores this thing can’t handle, and that performance is underwritten by 14C28N steel – still a new face over at RoseCraft, as they only implemented it for the first time last month. What can we say…

This article was originally published by Mike Adams at Natural News.  A Reactionary Edict from a Panicked President The order came via a social media post from a commander-in-chief who has just set the Middle East ablaze. On March 3, 2026, President Donald Trump announced he had directed the U.S. Navy to begin escorting commercial oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz and ordered a federal agency to provide political risk insurance for all Gulf maritime trade [1][2]. I believe this is not a strategic masterstroke but the frantic thrashing of an administration that started a war it cannot finish. It is a desperate, deadly gambit that will not reopen the world’s most critical energy chokepoint; it will instead risk sinking American ships, shattering American credibility, and risking global economic catastrophe. Here’s why this matters: the Strait of Hormuz is not just another waterway. It is a 21-mile-wide arterial choke point through which flows 20-30% of the world’s seaborne crude oil and a significant portion of its liquefied natural gas [3][4]. After the U.S. and Israel launched ‘Operation Epic Fury’ — a campaign that has already killed Iran’s Supreme Leader and dozens of top officials — Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) declared…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The House Oversight Committee voted along bipartisan lines to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday, a motion spearheaded by Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., amid continued frustrations with the Department of Justice’s efforts to release the Epstein Files.Mace said she had introduced the motion to hear from Bondi on “the department’s handling of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and his associates and compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act.”The vote succeeded in a 24-19 vote, with five Republicans joining Democrats to advance the subpoena.Besides Mace, the Republicans who voted with Democrats included: Reps. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., and Scott Perry, R-Pa. Lawmakers like Mace have raised questions about whether Bondi is doing all she can to release its documentation on Epstein in accordance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act. That bill, which became law in Nov. 2025, required the department to release any documents and files related to its investigation on the disgraced financier — so long as it didn’t reveal the identities of Epstein’s victims.EPSTEIN VICTIMS USE SUPER BOWL COMMERCIAL TO PRESSURE PAM BONDI OVER WITHHELD FILES But after the deadline came and went, lawmakers like Mace and Rep.…
