One of my favorite stops on YouTube is Nelson Ford’s The Gunsmith series. As a collector of old Colts and Smith & Wessons, I never tire of his “inside baseball” education on the inner workings of classic handguns. He’s done videos where he talks about getting trigger pulls on 1911-style semiautomatics down into the three-pound […]Border wall construction in the Big Bend region can move forward again after the U.S. Supreme Court temporarily lifted a lower-court order that had halted the project while a lawsuit plays out.
In an 8-1 decision issued Monday, the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to resume border construction in the Big Bend region while the legal challenge continues.
The justices said the administration is likely to succeed in its argument that the lower court did not have the authority to hear the particular claim at issue.
Whatever legitimate environmental concerns might be the pretense for this suit, it should be apparent to all that this is rally a TDS symptom. For all the Democrat hollering, the new Congress is not going to stop the wall.
An investigation showed the incident began when a group of boys, including the victim, “ding-dong ditched” at the home of a person known to them. Evidence indicates that when the boys returned to the home, Darin Young, who lived at the residence, chased after them and fired a gun, striking the 15-year-old.
The other boys were not injured and drove the victim to the hospital. Residents of the home also called police.
But also, being an annoying kid is not without its very high risks. I hope these kids will not do this sort of prank again. Pranks involving phone calls are also annoying, but no one gets shot.
The man who killed six people and wounded 15 others in a suspected far-right terror attack in the Polish city of Kraków, has died, police said early Monday.
Michał Oksiński, passed away at 4:30 a.m. local time (10:30 p.m. ET), authorities said. He had been in critical condition since the attack and had undergone several operations.
The 24-year-old was shot by police during Saturday’s midday rampage in Main Market Square, the historic center and major tourist destination in Poland’s second-largest city.
Four women and two men were killed in the shooting. Three of the women and one of the men were Polish, authorities said. A British man and an Austrian woman were among the dead, they said....
The bodies of Oksiński’s sister, mother and father were found at the family home in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, about 90 miles northeast of Kraków, authorities said.
I would be very surprised if there is not some mental illness history there.
Long-term a lot. Short-term, the fascist wing appears to remain in charge of the Democratic Party. They will allow capitalism, in a regulated form, to keep generating wealth to keep the elite getting richer and distributing corrupt wealth to their less rich agents through AID and Medicare/Medicaid frauds. One of these days the kleptocrat gerontocracy will die and the DSA will end in charge. Then the fertilizer will really hit the fan. Or perhaps by then, the millionaires' children that are the DA will have learned that doing fascism: "We care for the people!" while feeding at the trough is safer, than following their present pretenses. Of course, both wings are dangerous to our liberties and our children.
This Week in History: On November 8, 1602, the Bodleian Library at Oxford University, founded by Thomas Bodley, formally opened. — November 8,1967: Silver hit a record $1.95 per Troy ounce in London. By then, nearly all of the 90% silver coins had been pulled out of circulation by the citizenry in the United States, but some 40% silver half dollars were still being minted and in circulation. But circulating alongside silver-flashed copper tokens, most of those 40% silver coins were snapped up, on sight, and tucked away at home. — November 9, 1799: Napoleon Bonaparte pulled off a coup …
The post Preparedness Notes — November 10, 2026 appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.
Editor’s Introductory Note: This article was based on research done for Episode 84 of the Stakeholder Prepping Podcast. In the prepper community, we spend an inordinate amount of time discussing calibers, water filtration, and the caloric density of freeze-dried beef. But there is a glaring hole in the standard survival curriculum: the psychology of the trade. When the grid goes dark and the global financial system becomes a historical footnote, the dollar doesn’t just lose value; it becomes fancy kindling. In The End Of The World As We Know It (TEOTWAWKI), your most valuable asset isn’t your stockpile; it’s your …

The Charter Arms Pathfinder II is a rugged, eight-shot revolver chambered in .22LR. It has a stainless steel barrel and an anodized aluminum frame. It runs reliably on inexpensive bulk .22LR ammo that many semi-autos find difficult to feed consistently, and is reasonably accurate. Like many handguns chambered in .22LR, it is also a lot of fun to shoot. The single action trigger is a delight, while the double action trigger is a little heavier than I could wish. The compact rubber grip feels just a little too small in my hands (I wear gloves sized large to extra large). …

By Dave Workman Amtrak’s announcement that it will expand its firearms transportation policy in January has sparked what one national gun rights organization labeled as “unnecessary hysteria” with a spokesman for the Transport Workers Union calling the policy shift “sheer lunacy.” The war of words broke out Monday with reports that John Feltz, director of […]

A preliminary investigation indicated the shooting was an isolated incident stemming from a localized dispute between co-workers, and police said there was no ongoing threat to the public.
A second person involved was located at the scene and identified as 26-year-old Elijah Young of Okaloosa County.
After detectives conducted what police described as a comprehensive investigation, they presented the facts of the case to a representative from the Florida State Attorney’s Office.
Police said that based on the evidence gathered, witness statements, and a detailed review of the incident, no criminal charges will be filed.
