NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Elephants are widely adored by many people today — but a recent study suggests early humans were butchering them for survival nearly 2 million years ago.A group of international researchers found what they describe as “the earliest direct evidence of proboscidean butchery,” including a newly identified elephant butchery site, according to an article published in the spring in the journal eLife.Modern elephants are the only living proboscideans today — a group that once included woolly mammoths and mastodons. The animal bones belonged to Elephas recki, an extinct elephant species.ANCIENT HUMANS WERE HUNTING AND EATING SHARKS 7,000 YEARS AGO, BURIAL SITE DISCOVERY SHOWSThe research centers on Olduvai Gorge, a site in northern Tanzania’s Serengeti Plains known for major discoveries of early human fossils and tools.At the site, excavators found stone tools alongside bones of ancient elephants — and the recent paper, written by archaeologists and paleoanthropologists, suggests the remains were likely deliberately butchered by early human ancestors. The bones date back some 1.8 million years, during the early Pleistocene epoch.Though researchers have observed evidence of humans hunting large megafauna in later periods, the discovery suggests that early humans processed elephant carcasses more systematically.”The…
White House deputy national security adviser Andy Baker will leave the Trump administration in the coming weeks, marking the latest change to a national security team that has undergone a shake-up in recent months.National security officials in Washington widely view Baker, who also served as a national security adviser to Vice President JD Vance, as a low-key but influential figure inside the White House.A former State Department official, academic and Vance adviser when the vice president was in the Senate, Baker had historically advocated for a more restrained American foreign policy that questioned the wisdom of long-term foreign conflicts.He was also among the figures who helped craft Vance’s speech to the Munich Security Conference last year, during which the vice president warned European leaders that alleged censorship and democratic backsliding posed risks as severe to the continent as external threats, like those posed by China and Russia.“I’m proud of everything we’ve achieved and, of course, am incredibly grateful to the President, Vice President and Secretary Rubio,” Baker wrote in a statement provided to Reuters. “I’ll never be far away.”In separate statements, Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised the outgoing deputy national security adviser, whose departure was first reported…

U.S. Central Command will stand up the inaugural task force focused on multi-domain, multinational attack drones.Task Force Falcon Strike will utilize one-way attack drones composed of unmanned systems from above, on and below the sea, managed by U.S. military support staff and regional partners, according to a Thursday release.The move to launch this unit follows CENTCOM’s establishment of Task Force Scorpion Strike in December 2025, a Middle East-based task force equipped with one-way attack drones as the military strived to integrate drone technology across the services. “Task Force Falcon Strike will expand on Scorpion Strike’s success given the tremendous innovation happening among our regional allies and partners,” Adm. Brad Cooper, CENTCOM commander, said in the release. “Integrating and deploying our new capabilities together will help us rapidly realize the new possibilities that are on the horizon.”Scorpion Strike was the first to launch an aerial attack drone from a U.S. Navy warship last December, the month of its announcement. The unit also deployed one-way unmanned aerial systems during Operation Epic Fury and during strikes on Iranian port facilities in July with unmanned attack vessels at sea, the statement highlights.CENTCOM began consulting with and officially inviting regional partners to join Falcon Strike,…
Editor’s Note: This CORD Pandora PB-K review is based on hands-on testing of the red dot sight that was provided to the author by the company. All impressions regarding durability, glass clarity, reticle performance, and mounting are based on the author’s own range time and daily carry use of the optic paired with a Springfield Armory Hellcat Pro Comp. The compact optic space has evolved quickly — and become extremely crowded. Every year, new designs hit the market, claiming to address the same issues: durability, size, clarity, and reliability in real-world use. That’s where the Central Ohio Regional Department (CORD) PB-K Optic stood out to me. The PB-K’s enclosed design helps shield the emitter from dirt, dust and weather while providing added peace of mind for daily carry. Shown on Hellcat Pro pistol. A smaller sibling to the company’s PB-3 optic, it brings a lot to the table. It’s an enclosed emitter design, has an ACRO footprint and offers multiple reticle options. But specs only tell part of the story. [Note: For additional context, be sure to read our CORD Pandora PB-3 optic review.] There are optics that sound great on paper, and then there are optics that genuinely impress…

Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., is no Nancy Pelosi.The 85-year-old former House speaker from California is retiring, and the Democratic Party is baffled about its future. “Expand the tent” is its current trajectory, but at what cost? Turn it over to some who are not even registered Democrats?Democrats lack message discipline. DNC fundraising is anemic.
