The Washington Post published an editorial today calling on the New England Patriots to change their team name due to its association with the United States of America. The article called for the Patriots to change their team name immediately to something that doesn't imply they are proud of their country. "The negative associations with the horrible country of America should be left in the past," the editorial board wrote. "This name is very offensive to austere religious scholars in other countries, liberals, and Canadians. We must call on the NFL to do better, to be better." "They must change...

BRANDENBURG, Ky. — It was a tense scene between protestors and a crowd of people, many carrying guns, surrounding the Confederate monument in Brandenburg, Ky. Brandenburg took the Confederate Veteran’s Monument from Louisville in 2016, after the city removed it from the front of the UofL campus, where it had been for 120 years.

What started as peaceful protests two weeks ago in Seattle, Washington quickly turned into a compilation of looting and rioting in the Emerald City and surrounding suburbs. Gov. Jay Inslee activated the National Guard but the Pentagon has told National Guardsmen deployed to the nation’s capital not to use firearms or ammunition, and has issued orders to send home active-duty troops that the Trump administration amassed outside the city in recent days, a sign of de-escalation in the federal response to protests in the city. Some residents in the Seattle suburb of Bellevue weren’t waiting for authorities to protect them....

Benjamin Ryan Teeter was at his home in Hampstead, N.C., when the call to action came. It was an alert from the heart of the raging protests in Minneapolis, posted on an online forum by a fellow member of the Boogaloo movement, a loosely knit group of heavily armed, anti-government extremists. The "alert" was from a man who had a run-in with the Minneapolis police while on the frontline of the police-brutality protests set off by the death of George Floyd. "He caught mace to the face," said Teeter, and "put out a national notice to our network." After Teeter...

Reports and rumors that groups bent on rioting and violence in Coeur d’Alene brought out men and women with guns on Monday determined to stop them if they arrive. Dan Carson was patrolling Sherman Avenue with an AR-12 automatic 12-gauge across his chest, an AR-15 strapped to his back, two 9mm handguns holstered and a .38 special, too. “I heard there are some people on the way who shouldn’t be here,” he said early Monday evening. Those people, he said, were Antifa and Proud Boys, militant far-left and far-right groups. Carson said he was in Spokane Sunday night helping protect...

The Michigan House adjourned Thursday afternoon without taking up an extension of the state’s coronavirus state of emergency, setting the stage for a legal fight between Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and the Republican-led legislature. Michigan’s state of emergency is due to expire at the end of the day April 30. The emergency declaration gives the governor additional powers to issue executive orders during an emergency situation. Whitmer contends she retains emergency authority during the COVID-19 pandemic regardless of what the Legislature does, but Republican lawmakers critical of the administration’s COVID-19 response maintain a 1976 law requiring the governor to seek legislative...

Some of my colleagues who own bullet proof vests are wearing them. I have never appreciated our Sergeants-at-Arms more than today,' Sen Dayna Polehanki tweeted Thursday afternoon. In Michigan, guns are permitted inside the state's Capitol as long...

Every year American patriots reflect on the long hard battle for our country’s freedom that began in earnest in Middlesex County, Province of Massachusetts Bay on this day in 1775. Most know and have heard about the Battles of Lexington and Concord, however there were skirmishes in Lincoln, Menotomy, known as Arlington today, and Cambridge – a path from Concord back to Boston.

Tom Brady to the 49ers. Jimmy Garoppolo back to the Patriots. Talk about a whopper. There’s been growing speculation this fantasy scenario could happen, with the buzz hitting a fever pitch on Tuesday thanks to all types of reporting and conjecture from multiple outlets. Tom Curran of NBC Sports Boston said during a SiriusXM NFL radio interview he thought the 49ers were “closing hard on the outside.” What do my sources say? Curran “might be onto something.” Translation? Forget good friend Mike Vrabel and the Titans for a minute. If the Niners’ interest is mutual and real, which appears the...
