Patience and Jarod Blocker are rare for their age. The Gillette couple has a passion for classic pre-64 Winchester Model 70 rifles. Planning for next year's Winchester Arms Collectors Association show in Cody, Patience says, "It's going to be bad-ass."

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has announced that the execution of convicted Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan will be "PUBLIC," with American soldiers carrying out the firing squad at the very military installation where Hasan murdered 13 people and wounded 32 others in 2009. The Trump administration has scheduled the execution for December 3, 2026, at 1 p.m. Central Time, returning the convicted mass murderer to Fort Hood, Texas, at approximately the same time of day he launched his deadly rampage nearly 17 years ago. Hegseth revealed the plans during an exclusive interview with conservative commentator Jack Posobiec...

You may know King Harold II for one thing: losing the Battle of Hastings in 1066. But is this Harold's whole story? In 2023 a remarkable coin hoard was discovered in Yorkshire, England, that shows Harold in a different light. This is the first recorded hoard of coins which can definitely be dated to the year 1066. Containing only coins struck during Harold’s brief reign of 282 days, the hoard reveals a king whose authority was recognised across England, and whose government could produce new coins with great speed. Join Elina Screen, Curator of Medieval and Modern Coin Collections at...

A scheduled military execution is set for December 3rd. We examine the procedures for the first such event in 65 years. The U.S. military justice system has scheduled the execution of former Army Major Nidal Hassan at Fort Hood. This event marks a significant procedural milestone, as it would be the first time in over six decades that the armed forces have carried out a capital sentence. Understanding how a firing squad operates requires looking at the specific regulations governing capital punishment. We break down the historical context and the legal framework that leads to this rare application of the...

Another NFL star is raising questions about the U.S. moon landing. In a recent interview, New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye shared he’s unsure if the United States really landed on the moon in 1969. Maye made his comments during a recent radio interview where he stated, “I’m not really sure 200% if we went there or not.” Boston 25 News was the first to report on Maye’s comments on the moon landing: New England Patriots QB Drake Maye has revealed he isn’t quite sure a famous touchdown really happened. During an appearance on WEEI on Monday, the topic of...

The Democrats’ latest anti-Trump hoax is their most nonsensical, and yet of course, their media handmaidens pretend to swallow it hook, line and sinker. The claim is that President Trump stood up at his rally in Nebraska on Monday and invited Iran to bomb LA and San Diego. He actually said the opposite, as anyone honest with ears and a functioning brain knows. He was talking about how a temporary rise in gas prices was “a small price to pay” for stopping Iran from developing nuclear missiles that could annihilate the cities of our allies in Europe and the Middle...

Ancient Greek papyri show that people used diagrams to solve and understand practical math problems nearly 2,000 years ago. A study led by Thomas Kelly finds that the drawings helped readers organize numbers, follow calculations, and check results. The research examines Greek mathematical papyri from Greco-Roman Egypt, mainly dating from the first four centuries A.D. The texts contain practical geometry problems involving land, buildings, and three-dimensional objects. Unlike formal proofs, these problems usually provide measurements followed by steps for calculating an answer. They offer another view of mathematics in ancient Greece, showing how geometry could be applied to practical calculations....

Mayor Zohran Mamdani was berated and booed at an Oct. 7 candlelight vigil in Union Square on Wednesday night by anti-Israel protesters who believe he turned his back on Palestinian causes. Hizzoner, with a candle in hand, was heckled by the angry mob, including some waving Hamas flags, who marched from City Hall to crash the event meant to honor Jewish victims killed by Hamas terrorists — and Palestinians in the subsequent war. “You coward!” some of the keffiyeh-clad agitators shouted at Hizzoner. “How do you let this happen?” “Zohran you can’t hide, we charge you with genocide,” the protesters...

The FBI arrested a 30-year-old Bellingham, Washington resident on Tuesday and charged him with conspiracy to murder persons in a foreign country for allegedly coaching, funding, and agreeing to broadcast the February 10 slaughter at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia, the attack that left 8 people dead, including 5 children. James Cody Bryant was taken into custody in Bellingham and appeared in federal court in Seattle. The charge carries a maximum sentence of life in federal prison. According to the Department of Justice announcement and the accompanying 41-page FBI criminal complaint, Bryant allegedly maintained extensive communications with 18-year-old...

The SS United States is facing one final hurdle before the historic ocean liner can be sunk and turned into an artificial reef off Florida. Officials in Okaloosa County, who own the vessel, say they are still waiting for sign-off from the US Army Corps of Engineers, with the federal delay keeping the ship in Mobile, Alabama, for now. County commissioners have approved another $1.2m for the project, including $944,000 to keep the vessel docked in Mobile if necessary. The remaining funding covers towing, deployment and regulatory costs. The 990ft liner, once the fastest passenger ship in the world, arrived...

GOP gubernatorial hopeful Bruce Blakeman vowed Tuesday to end New York’s sanctuary state policies on his first day in office — as Rep. Mike Lawler unleashed a profanity-laced attack on Gov. Kathy Hochul. The Republicans gathered in Chappaqua alongside the family of Sheridan Gorman — the 18-year-old Loyola University student gunned down by an illegal migrant — to demand law enforcement cooperation with ICE after two previously deported men were arrested in separate Hudson Valley cases. “The insanity is over, we’re putting New Yorkers first,” Blakeman declared. “On January 1st, as governor, I will sign an executive order, New York...

Will we risk our future for some cheaper gas, communism, emptying out the prisons, and cutting our children’s genitals? Is this the midterm from hell, or is this midterm election for hell? Looking at the names, the backgrounds, and the platforms of all those running in this midterm election, it seems as if hell is actively involved. Many in my discipline are saying this is the most demonically inspired election ever seen, based on the kind of people running and their obviously antichrist and anti-human platforms. These are the people who can’t and won’t even try to explain the demonic,...

Augustus, ancient Rome's first emperor, placed a gilded monument called the Milliarium Aureum, or Golden Milestone, in the Roman Forum in 20 BC to mark the symbolic starting point for all roads in the sprawling empire. These roads indeed were the backbone of the world's first continental-scale transportation system. Now, researchers ‌have conducted a detailed structural analysis of the empire's road network, spanning roughly 190,000 miles (300,000 km) of routes crisscrossing Europe, the Middle East and North Africa... The researchers also documented a correlation in many regions between the old Roman roads and modern highways... Some roads were very ⁠durable,...

I was -1. I wonder what it was like to see live. It likely cost him the Election and led to President Reagan.

A whistleblower who exposed U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's links to Jeffrey Epstein has died by suicide. Yes, Simon Andriesz has died by suicide. Here is Simon on X back in August: I am the British whistleblower who reported evidence concerning Howard Lutnick, his links to Jeffrey Epstein, and Cantor Fitzgerald and BGC to the FBI in 2020-21.

Apple News allegedly failed to promote a single story about the Democratic National Committee’s financial woes among its top 20 stories over nearly nine months, according to a new analysis by the Media Research Center. The watchdog group found that none of the 78 stories it identified about the DNC’s mounting debt were promoted by Apple News from Jan. 1 through Sept. 28 — just weeks before the 2026 midterm elections. “Apple isn’t curating the news,” David Bozell, president of the MRC, said. “It’s running a high-tech protection racket for the political left.” The findings come as Democrats grapple with...
