"The Two U.S. Constitutions"
*"The Two U.S. Constitutions"* by Brian Maher "Tomorrow the nation celebrates Constitution Day. Rather, tomorrow the calendar acknowledges Constitution Day. Few Americans realize the high day exists. Fewer yet will hoist a cheering toast in honor of the nation’s founding charter - the first written constitution in Earth’s history. Nor will your seditious editor celebrate Constitution Day. That is not because he scorns or abominates the United States Constitution… but because he reveres it. It has been distorted beyond semblance. The original constitutional text remains, it is true.... read more

PRO-CORPORATE DEMOCRATS WANT FELLOW DEMOCRATS TO LOSEYesterday, a HuffPost story dispelled a myth about many of the corporatist Democrats who are blocking the Biden agenda: From prescription drug prices to higher taxes on the rich, many of the Democrats in the House standing in the way of more progressive legislation hail from safe Democratic seats. An example: Reps. Scott Peters (Calif.), Kurt Schrader (Ore.), and Kathleen Rice (N.Y.), members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, joined Republicans to block the prescription drug price negotiation bill from advancing out of committee. ... In addition to Rice, Peters and Sch... read more

Long Live Britain's Revolutionary Queen Elizabeth Battleships*Robert Farley* *Royal Navy, Great Britain* HMS Queen Elizabeth entered service in 1915 and played an important role in both world wars. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* *Queen Elizabeth* and its sisters were remarkably important battleships, staying relevant for a much longer period than most of its contemporaries. The Queen Elizabeths represented a leap forward in battleship design almost equivalent in degree to that of HMS *Dreadnought*. After the construction of *Iron Duke*, the British Admiralty decided to pursue a class of ships that would be larger, more heavily armed ... read more

Here's Why Nazi Germany Loved its Panzer II Tanks*Peter Suciu* *World War II, Europe* While it was intended to be a stopgap, the Panzerkampfwagen II became Nazi Germany's most popular tank. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *What it lacked in firepower, it made up for in numbers and speed, where groups of Panzer IIs could encircle enemy units. As Nazi Germany began to openly rearm its military in the late 1930s, it introduced the Panzerkampfwagen II—more commonly known as the Panzer II—largely as a stopgap while more powerful tanks such as the Panzer III and Panzer IV were being developed. However, the Panzer II went on to ... read more

Did Milley’s China Call Cause Lasting Damage to U.S. National Security?*John Rossomando* *China, United States* Milley needs to step aside and face discipline because his continued presence as the nation’s top military officer is a clear and present danger to national security on multiple levels. General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, reportedly told Chinese General Li Zuocheng that he would notify the Chinese beforehand if then-President Donald Trump planned to launch a nuclear strike on China. Milley must address these claims and the damage the call may have done to national security when he testifies before the Senate Ar... read more

NATO Should be Worried About Russia's New Hypersonic Missiles*Peter Suciu* *Hypersonic Missiles, Eurasia* NATO cannot ignore Russia's tests of Tsirkon missiles. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *The 3M22 Tsirkon isn’t the only new missile that could soon be employed on Russia's submarines. In the final months of 2020, Russia tested its 3M22 Tsirkon anti-ship hypersonic cruise missile multiple times, including a mid-December test in the White Sea. Now it seems that the state trials for the missile platform—also known as the Zircon—could be concluded this year.

A Training Rifle for Kids? Meet the Smith & Wesson M&P 15-22*Richard Douglas* *Guns, * Whether you want to train without burning through cash or introduce your kids to the AR platform, you’ll find exactly what you need out of this rifle. Everyone loves a good .22 shooting session. There’s nothing quite like casually sending rounds down range after a long day. What’s better is that shooting a .22 won’t break the bank. This tiny caliber isn’t just for fun either (although that’s what I use it for). It can also be used as a training caliber, usually to mitigate the costs of more expensive calibers like 556. The M&P 15-22 certainly fits the ... read more
