They call it the body’s own betrayal.One moment, you’ve got what feels like a simple cut, an infection, or maybe a lingering fever — and the next, your own immune system is turning against you. That’s sepsis — the killer no one talks about until it’s already too late. Most people don’t even realize how fast it moves. The average person thinks sepsis is a hospital problem, something that happens to the elderly or those with “underlying conditions.”But the truth?Sepsis can kill a healthy adult in less than 24 hours. And when the grid goes down, when antibiotics are scarce…

The Russia-Ukraine war has been a drone operator’s dream and a quartermaster’s nightmare. Supply trucks and depots have been pounded by a nearly endless stream of drones and long-range munitions. Resupply of front-line units means running a gauntlet of fire.For the first time since World War II, U.S. Army logisticians must contemplate a grim future where supply units no longer have the luxury of assuming that the Air Force can shield them from aerial threats. Nor that being behind the front lines will keep them safe from enemy bombardment.“The assumption that logistics operates in the safety of a rear area…
This article was originally published by Andrew P. Napolitano at The Ron Paul Institute for Peace and Prosperity. President Donald Trump’s use of the US military to kill persons on speed boats in international waters, or in territorial waters claimed by other sovereign nations — all 1,500 miles from the US — has posed grave issues of due process. The Constitution’s guarantee of due process requires it for every person, not just Americans. The operative language of the Fifth Amendment is that “No person … shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.” The Trump…
Prepping websites are a great resource to help you learn how important survival skills are, such as how to store food long-term, filter water without electricity, or protect your home if the grid goes down. Yet, what happens if one day you wake up and all that content is gone? Unfortunately, we’re living in a time where censorship is no longer a theoretical concern. It’s real, it’s digital, and it’s creeping into every corner of the internet. Prepper websites, forums, and social media groups are often targeted for “Misinformation.” Despite offering life-saving advice. There’s a real risk that the knowledge…
It was a scene that played out countless times in homes across America during World War II: A young soldier, home on leave, making his tearful goodbyes to his family before shipping out to fight in some faraway land.On Feb. 28, 1943, a 20-year-old draftee, who was inducted into the U.S. Army at Fort Snelling in his hometown of St. Paul, Minnesota, said a particularly painful farewell. For the very last time, he addressed his mother, who was near death from cervical cancer.“Goodbye, Sparky,” said his bedridden mother, Dena, who was 48. “We’ll probably never see each other again.” She…
Since the early days of the Cold War, the early warning radars on Greenland have been a linchpin for defending North America against nuclear attack by intercontinental ballistic missiles.But the radars themselves are vulnerable to attack by hypersonic missiles, critics warn. U.S. bases in Greenland can neither detect those missiles, nor shoot them down.“The U.S. does not have a standing integrated air and missile defense shooter layer in Greenland today,” Troy Bouffard, director of the Center for Arctic Security and Resilience at the University of Alaska, told Defense News.“The new and future threat of hypersonic cruise missiles has changed everything,…

TriStar has just announced the APOC, a new compact 9mm handgun designed to be both affordable and reliable.Plenty of Americans are looking to arm themselves for as little money as possible, and they understand that having an affordable pistol that works reliably is far more important than having the latest-and-greatest tactical features.

This is corroborated by its 4-inch barrel and 15-round magazine capacity, two…
This article was originally published by Kevin Hughes at Natural News. Millions participated in the second wave of “No Kings” demonstrations, with over 2,700 events and an estimated seven million attendees, marking one of the largest coordinated civil actions in U.S. history. Investigative researchers claim the movement is heavily funded by left-wing billionaires (Soros, Ford Foundation, Rockefeller) funneling hundreds of millions through opaque dark-money networks, despite protesters insisting their motivations are grassroots and personal. Protesters included veterans, students and civil rights icons, with emotional appeals against Trump’s policies, while symbolic imagery (inflatable frogs, Revolutionary War attire, Epstein-linked signs) dominated rallies.…
