MoreCharred lodgepoles scratching a gunmetal sky reflected my mood. This morning the elk had won. No plan in mind, I climbed beyond where they’d scattered. Probing the slope’s crest from the sit with my binocular, I saw it. Among ranks of black boles with low-arcing limbs, a branch curved up. The lenses of my 7×35 Bausch & Lomb resolved it. Antler! A 4 o’clock tangle became the bull’s hump — all but hidden by the bead on my .32 Special. After the carbine spoke I scaled the scarp and found blood on hoof-gashed snow. The elk lay 50 yards on. Stay low to glass, even briefly, to reduce your profile and steady the bino — preferably with two hands. To see better afield, you need a binocular. (Yes, binocular. Singular. Bi refers to its two barrels. A pair of binoculars serves no purpose unless you have four eyes.) Animals meet the hunter’s eye as patches of non-reflective earth-tones, bone and muscle melding texture with shadow. All pass as background unless they present something unusual: sun’s glint on eye or nose, motion in the flick of an ear. A binocular distinguishes what matters from what you’ll dismiss. A craving to see…
Iran has declared victory over the United States. The newly signed memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran is a diplomatic victory for Tehran and a “record of US failure.” Iran has also pointed out that the US ruling class has failed to accomplish any of its goals and military objectives, while regular Americans watched the price of fuel skyrocket as their bills became harder to pay. The 14-point document was signed remotely by President Donald Trump and his Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, late on Wednesday and immediately entered force, according to Pakistani mediators, according to a report by RT. Iran has emphatically stated that the Strait of Hormuz will not reopen “toll-free” as Trump has claimed. Trump Claims A Peace Deal Will Be Signed TODAY & Strait Of Hormuz Will Be Open To All “I emphasize again that the Strait of Hormuz will never return to the previous conditions,” Iran’s parliament speaker and chief negotiator in talks, Mohammad Ghalibaf, said. “Iran has the right to sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, and of course, we will receive a fee for services.” Giving Iran Permanent Control Of The Strait Of Hormuz Will Be A Disaster For The Global Economy Tehran…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The NFL is facing two major issues as the 2026 season approaches: how fans are watching the games, and the ongoing discussion of playing surfaces.The former has been the subject of controversy, so much so that there was a hearing earlier this month regarding the Sports Broadcasting Act of 1961, as fans are paying up the wazoo to watch games exclusively on streaming sites.Former NFL tight end-turned-FOX analyst Greg Olsen, however, understands that the league is a money-making business. “I get it. From a high-level, nonbiased perspective, I understand it. I understand the frustrations and why this conversation is out there. The amount of different streamers and subscriptions, and I need to have cable to go along with my cable. I get all of that — I’m also a realist,” Olsen said recently to Fox News Digital.”While I may not have designed it this way and may not always agree with it, I do believe that we just have to operate within the rules in which we’re all living. This is the modern era, and I think people are going to adjust. I think networks are going to pivot and adjust, I…
With any air left in lungs likely heaving from adrenaline, the crew members may have blown bubbles, feeling which way the small pockets of air traveled against their face. Submerged in darkness and feeling around a cockpit becoming a watery tomb, the direction of the bubbles may have told the disoriented helicopter crew the direction of the only thing that mattered: up. An attack helicopter went down off the coast of Oman this month after a Shahed drone engaged with the aircraft. Though the Pentagon said that its two crew members were rescued by an unnamed surface vessel hours later, public details surrounding the incident remain sparse. The military’s investigation may ultimately determine what happened between the Apache and drone, but for experts and analysts, the event is a snapshot into how warfare is changing: attack helicopters, once the apex predators of the battlefield, must learn to navigate an ecosystem crowded with unmanned systems that are smaller, cheaper and deadlier than ever before. The interaction itself seemed an anomaly. Iranian Shahed-136 drones are typically programmed to fly to set coordinates before launch, which makes them adept at striking targets that do not move, according to Kelly Campa, Middle East Team…

The Supreme Court unanimously struck down a law banning “habitual” marijuana users from owning firearms on Thursday.The court ruled the law, which was used to prosecute Hunter Biden, was overbroad and improperly deprived individuals of their right to have a weapon in their homes.

“Jesus, Mary, get me there. Get me there.” More than 50 years after then-Capt. John Ripley rhythmically chanted that prayer for three hours as he swung back and forth under a North Vietnamese bridge to rig 500 pounds of explosives, the Marine is set to posthumously be awarded the Medal of Honor. But for the Ripley family, June 18th is more than just the date of the White House ceremony. “June 18, that’s the day my father’s brother, Mike Ripley, was killed,” Tom Ripley told Military Times. After three 13-month tours in Vietnam Mike Ripley was back in the U.S. in 1971, when the new AV-8A Harrier jump jet he was test flying crashed into Chesapeake Bay, killing him instantly.“Service is something that’s been a long tradition in our family,” noted Ripley. “I was a Marine, my brother was a Marine, obviously, my father was a Marine, my uncles, two of my nephews, my son is going into the Navy — he just graduated just a couple weeks ago from the Naval Academy. We love our country. We’re proud and honored to serve our country. It means the world to us to have the opportunity to stand … with of…

It started as a routine transfer. Following an asset transfer from Korea, maintainers at Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, accepted and processed an A-10 Warthog. Soon, staff at the base recognized that they had an opportunity to link past and present. So began the process of transforming the A-10 into a piece of visual history, tracing its lineage to the famous Flying Tigers squadron of World War II.“If the original Flying Tigers hadn’t been successful, we wouldn’t be here today carrying that name and history,” Staff Sgt. Tucker Lee, 23d MXS noncommissioned officer in charge corrosion control, said in a release. “The shark teeth that people associate with the A-10 started back with the P-40s, and now they’ve become part of what makes the Warthog iconic. Keeping that heritage paint scheme and the nose art reminds us where we came from and pushes us to continue that legacy of success.”Formed in 1941 by Capt. Claire L. Chennault, the American Volunteer Group, popularly known as the Flying Tigers, was composed of former U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps pilots hired as mercenaries by China to fight against the Japanese. Though only in combat for less than seven months, the group became…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Newark Mayor Ras Baraka said Tuesday that he disagreed with the tactics New Jersey State Police used after they were ordered by Gov. Mikie Sherrill to secure the scene outside Delaney Hall, describing the agency as “a sword.” Clashes erupted outside outside the detention center in Newark on Friday after protesters defied an order from the State Police to relocate to a nearby “First Amendment zone.” The area has seen frequent demonstrations in recent days after illegal immigrant detainees penned an open letter alleging physical and psychological torture, claiming they were being denied medical care and adequate food. On Saturday, Sherrill said the New Jersey State Police Public Safety Response team was sent to the area in a move “absolutely necessary to protect public safety, and avoid escalation from ICE.” “I mean, clearly I agree that she was supposed to take action, 100 percent. She’s the governor. She’s the leader of this state. Our agencies are going to follow her, her attorney general, her staff. We’re going to defer to her, because she is the leader of this state. And she needed to make strong and aggressive decisions,” Baraka, a fellow Democrat, said Tuesday.LEFT-WING STREAMER BLASTS NEW JERSEY GOVERNOR OVER STATE POLICE RESPONSE AT ICE FACILITY PROTESTS “She made a decision to…
My passion has been collecting and acquiring representative United States Service rifles. That includes items like the 1898 Krag-Jorgensen, 1903 Springfield (and its variants), the M1 Garand and the M1 Carbine. However, one of my favorites in that collection is the Springfield Model 1884 Trapdoor Rifle. Why? Because it’s such a strange gun! It’s a rifle of two eras — muzzleloading and breechloading. It’s such an oddity in the development of military arms. According to the author, the manual of arms for the Trapdoor rifle is simpler than it may seem. Here, he is demonstrating how to reload it. While Europe was developing all-new weapon systems around the idea of a self-contained cartridge, the United States decided to mash the concept together. This was all in an effort to save money in a post-bellum world. And that’s what makes this bit of firearms history so interesting. Allin’s Alterations Before I begin, yes, both sides of the Civil War produced models of breech-loading rifles. Just not on a large scale. Civil War-era breech-loading carbines, like the Spencer and Sharps, were issued to some cavalry units but served mainly as a temporary solution and did little to arm the infantry. After the…
The United States ruler, Donald Trump, believes that peace talks with Iran are continuing at a “rapid pace”, while Iran says it has suspended talks after a violation of the ceasefire agreement. Trump oddly made the comments just hours after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) had made its statement about a suspension of peace talks. Israel, The United States, Iran, and Russia All Move Even Deeper Into World War III Trump also said “all shooting will stop” between Israel and Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militant group in Lebanon, after the president said he spoke with officials from both sides of the conflict. But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said later that his country’s military would “continue to operate as planned in southern Lebanon,” and there were clashes overnight between Israel and Hezbollah, according to a report by CBS News. Trump claimed that he’s in control of Israel’s troops as well, and Netanyahu obeys the US ruler’s commands. He posted on his Truth Social platform on Monday, writing that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “turned his troops around” in Lebanon following their earlier phone call. “I had a conversation with Bibi Netanyahu today, asking him not to go into a major raid…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A Chicago high school’s decision to eliminate its Arabic language program due to low enrollment and budget constraints has sparked backlash from community members who argue the course is vital for inclusion and diversity.Lincoln Park High School (LPHS) announced it will no longer offer Arabic to incoming freshmen. The decision comes as Chicago Public Schools (CPS) grapples with a projected $732.5 million deficit, forcing districtwide cuts to teaching and administrative staff, according to a new report by The Chicago Tribune.LPHS Principal Eric Steinmiller defended the decision during a May 21 local school council meeting. Steinmiller explained that beyond the district’s severe financial constraints, the Arabic program enrolled a total of just 20 students this year and ranked as the school’s “lowest-performing” International Baccalaureate (IB) language track based on test scores.However, the decision has upset local activists, parents, and students who are demanding the administration reverse course. An online petition protesting the cancellation has already garnered more than 1,500 signatures.

May the best Unmanned Surface Vessel win. The U.S. Navy announced Friday that it selected seven companies to compete for the service’s Medium Unmanned Surface Vessel contract.At-sea testing of the vessels is slated to begin next month, with companies whose MUSVs successfully complete the trials set to receive $15 million and be eligible for “follow-on production,” according to the Navy.Testing is set to wrap up by October of this year. The companies chosen to for the trials include Sea Machines, Leidos, Saronic Technologies, Galliano Marine Services, PacMar Technologies, Birdon and Huntington Ingalls Industries. This announcement comes as the Navy seeks to expand its unmanned service vessels fleet, with officials hoping to swell its numbers sevenfold, from four to 30 vessels by 2030 in the Indo-Pacific.The four USVs that were deployed in the Indo-Pacific for five months in 2024 were the Sea Hunter, Sea Hawk, Mariner and Ranger vessels, and all four are still being used to further develop the Navy’s USV program, according to previous Military Times reporting. The Navy is utilizing the MUSV marketplace to solicit bids from “smaller, non-traditional shipyards” in the hopes of creating new opportunities to build out the Navy’s unmanned fleet. The initiative, according to…

This article was originally published by Tyler Durden at ZeroHedge. The Trump administration appears to be trying to inject new optimism across the nation’s farm belt following the China meeting last month, during which Beijing committed to making billions of dollars of new purchases of U.S. agricultural goods. The White House’s latest move is to reduce tariffs on tractors and combines, a policy shift aimed at easing cost pressures on farmers already squeezed by diesel, fertilizer, and machinery costs. Late Monday, President Trump signed a proclamation slashing tariffs on imported agricultural equipment, including combines and harvesters, from 25% to 15% to lower costs for US farmers and manufacturers. More color from the White House: The Proclamation adjusts the tariffs on agricultural equipment, like combines and harvesters, as well as certain other equipment, from 25% to 15%. The Proclamation also expands the existing category of industrial equipment subject to a 15% tariff to include mobile industrial equipment, like bulldozers and forklifts, when imported from trade deal countries that are entitled to such treatment. The Proclamation encourages foreign companies to use more U.S. steel and aluminum by allowing them to qualify for a 10% duty rate, if their capital equipment include at least 85%…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: President Donald Trump’s Department of the Interior unveiled a new patriotic installation at Freedom Plaza in downtown Washington, D.C., placing Revolutionary War figures at a site long associated with protests and encampments. “This exhibition featuring Caesar Rodney and the 12 Soldiers of the Revolutionary War is a powerful tribute to the patriots whose service and sacrifice helped secure the freedoms we enjoy today,” Department of Interior (DOI) Secretary Doug Burgum told Fox News Digital.The installation pairs a statue of founding father Caesar Rodney with 12 bronze Revolutionary War soldiers, honoring patriots whose sacrifices helped found the nation. Freedom Plaza has frequently been the site of political protests, including when it was known as “tent city” during economic protests in 2011 and more recently as the staging area for protests during the violent summer of 2020, when riots broke out in cities nationwide following the death of George Floyd.”As we prepare to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, this exhibition is one of the many ways President Donald J. Trump is ensuring that the stories of the men and women who built this nation are preserved, honored and shared for generations to come,”…
