The nation’s Air National Guard adjutants general are making their most unified push yet to recapitalize the U.S. Air Force’s fighter fleet, with 22 generals signing a letter to Congress this month calling for multiyear funding to buy between 72 and 100 new fighters annually. The letter, sent April 1 to the chairs and ranking members of the House and Senate Appropriations committees and their defense subcommittees, calls on Congress to legislate multiyear procurement of F-35A Lightning IIs and F-15EX Eagle IIs at a baseline of 48 F-35As and 24 F-15EXs per year, with a desired end state of 72 F-35As and 36 F-15EXs, totaling 108 aircraft annually.“The United States Air Force is the oldest, the smallest and the least ready in its 78-year history,” the letter states. “We must build a fighting force that will win.”The letter marks the first time the Adjutants General Association of the United States has collected signatures from all 22 adjutants general commanding states with Guard fighter units. Even at 100 new fighters per year, full recapitalization of the total force could still take 10 to 15 years given the existing backlog of legacy aircraft.“When all 22 adjutants general with fighter missions speak with…

Springfield Armory has just announced the Saint Victor PDW, a compact 9mm AR with a 5.5-inch barrel.The concept of a personal defense weapon, or PDW, originates with militaries looking to arm second-line troops with something small, handy, and easier to shoot than a traditional handgun. Springfield’s new take on the concept is the Saint Victor PDW, and it looks like it will be able to fill its namesake role very well.Chambered for 9mm, the Saint Victor PDW features a 5.5-inch barrel, a retractable SB Tactical HBPDW pistol brace and a simple but reliable direct-blowback action. It feeds from Colt-pattern magazines and has a standard capacity of 32 rounds.For mounting accessories, the Saint Victor PDW has a full-length top Picatinny rail for optics, an aluminum free-float M-LOK handguard and a 1/2×28 threaded muzzle. It comes with a hand stop pre-installed on the handguard and an SA Muzzle Drum blast diverter on the barrel, but that could be replaced with a suppressor as long as it has a diameter small enough to fit inside the handguard. Other features of the PDW include an ambidextrous 45-degree short-throw safety, a B5 Systems Type 23 P-Grip, a nickel boron coated flat trigger and a Tungsten…

Franklin Graham is defending President Donald Trump in a statement shared Thursday on Truth Social after backlash over an image critics said depicted him as Jesus Christ.The statement was released Thursday by Graham and shared by the president as a signed letter.”I do not believe President Trump would knowingly depict himself as Jesus Christ — that would certainly be inappropriate,” Graham wrote.He added that Trump believed the image showed “a doctor helping someone,” and said the president “immediately removed the post” after concerns were raised.STEFANIK CLASHES WITH CNN HOSTS OVER TRUMP’S POPE COMMENTS, WHILE ACCUSING SWALWELL OF ‘CRIMINAL’ CONDUCT “There were no spiritual references — no halo, there were no crosses, no angels,” Graham wrote. “It was a flag, soldiers, a nurse, fighter planes, eagles… I think this is a lot to do about nothing.”Graham also referenced a separate image Trump shared on Truth Social that appeared to show Jesus standing beside him with a hand on his shoulder, suggesting it represented guidance rather than self-depiction, and said critics were attempting to “spin this into something that it isn’t.””And the illustration from someone else he reposted on Truth Social today, I…

Rainwater harvesting is one of the best ways to save money on water and become more self-sufficient. But if you’ve looked into rain barrel systems, you know how expensive they can be. A single rain barrel costs $80 to $120. Fortunately, you can build a simple rainwater collection system using materials you can find at your local hardware store—all for less than $100. The key? Using a 32-gallon trash can as the main reservoir. I found this setup on the Youtube channel, Vibrant Deals. Want to save this post for later? Click Here to Pin It On Pinterest! Here’s how you can build your own rain barrel system on a budget: What You’ll Need Step-by-Step Setup Build the Base: Create a stable, elevated platform using the six cinder blocks arranged in two layers, topped with the cement paver. This helps with water flow and makes it easy to use the spigot. Install the Spigot: Drill a hole near the bottom of the trash can and insert the brass spigot. Tighten it from the inside to ensure no leaks. This placement ensures you can drain as much water as possible. Cut the Lid: Use a utility knife to cut a 3″x2″…
