Judge Aileen Cannon has ordered the Justice Department to temporarily halt its investigation of materials seized by the FBI during its search of Mar-a-Lago until a special master can review them. A special master is an independent third party, typically an attorney, appointed by the judge to review evidence seized in order to determine if anything […]
I’d like to start this post with a list of problems that I’ve encountered with sunglasses in the past. These include: Weak plastic joints Unsupported lenses Lenses that scratch easily Flaking and peeling rubber pieces Fragile plastic frames And having a bad fit (both with hearing protection and without) Gatorz Eyewear sunglasses don’t suffer from […]
Guns have a lot of features and details to their design, but if one feature stands alone in getting the best—or worst—press, it’s probably capacity. Stacking as many rounds of ammo as possible in your carry gun is seen as a necessity, understandably. After all, you can’t predict or control how a fight for your […]
The United States Armed Forces is falling dangerously short of its recruitment goals. One of the biggest problems for each branch is the smaller and smaller pool of eligible recruits.
