It wasn't the game that the author expected to take with it, but his big .58-caliber flintlock still performed well in the woods. Let me begin this tale by reviewing some background and a few technicalities. The rifle that is the real centerpiece of this story is a .58-caliber flintlock, in the fullstock Hawken style. That was the last rifle made for me by the late Dave Dolliver. It was my second .58-caliber rifle, but compared to some of the other muzzleloading calibers, I had very little experience with the .58s. Getting more experience with the .58s was something I...

I'm smelling college admissions scandal: David Hogg managed to get into Harvard with a below average SAT score.

Last week, Bloomberg reported that the Trump administration is drawing up demands for Germany and Japan — and eventually other countries — to pay for the costs of hosting U.S. troops in their countries, plus an additional 50% or more. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), who sits on the Armed Services Committee and is the head of the House Republican Conference, criticized the Trump administration's move, calling it “absolutely devastating.” “We benefit tremendously” by stationing soldiers in South Korea, Japan, Germany and other countries, Cheney said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “The notion that we are now going to...

David Remnick, editor of the New Yorker, asked staff writer Lawrence Wright to “explain Texas.” Why would Wright choose to live there? “I hope this book,” says Wright, “answers the question.” But the book—God Save Texas: A Journey into the Soul of the Lone Star State—does not explain Texas. It does not even explain why Lawrence Wright of the New Yorker chooses to live in Texas, a question of limited interest. It is not, as it proposes to be, a meditation on the culture and politics of Texas and their influence on the wider American scene. It is an overflowing...

The Evening Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends) Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is an actress. – Everyone should watch this video. Trust me, just watch it. It’ll be the best 23 minutes you invest this week. I’m going to keep this pinned at the top of each piece I post for the next few days in order to maximize its – and her – exposure. This college admissions bribery scandal is just fascinating to me. Here you have a bunch of mainly-white, mainly-liberal wealthy people using their status and money to buy their kids’ way into some of the Ivy League...

Lisa Page testified - last summer- that Loretta Lynch (likely with the knowledge and advice of Obama)  blocked the prosecution of Hillary Clinton in 2016: Former FBI lawyer Lisa Page admitted under questioning from Texas Republican Rep.

Meghan McCain blasted Lori Loughlin's husband Mossimo Giannulli Tuesday as the designer was released on bail amid a massive college admissions scandal. The View panelist defended Arizona State University which, according to documents, was mentioned in an email from the father of two daughters to an alleged mastermind who helped get the stars' children into top schools around the country.

Reflections on the free market, at Chicago’s McCormick Place I like trade shows and conferences. I’ve attended a lot of them - and I’ve given speeches at a few - and I have always found them to be a wonderful microcosm of both society and the economy. No matter how troubled a city or state may be, the trade show is a place to be re-invigorated about the potential in our own American economy and even in the world at large. This week, for example, walking through the Housewares Show at Chicago’s McCormick Place, I was reminded of a number...
