Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Master Sgt. Ran Gvili, the final hostage that was kept in Gaza, is buried today. Last night, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a wide-ranging press conference, during which he raised unusual allegations against the Biden administration. We hear from Berman about the mood in the room and the premier's two remaining foci -- dismantling Hamas’s weapons and demilitarizing Gaza of arms and tunnels. During the press conference, Berman asked Netanyahu about the changing rhetoric out of Saudi Arabia, which is increasingly aligning itself with actors such as Pakistan and Turkey. We learn what the premier had to say. Yesterday, International Holocaust Remembrance Day was observed across the world. January 27 marks the anniversary of the liberation by Soviet forces of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the most notorious of the Nazi German death camps. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky marked the day at the Babyn Yar ravine outside of Kyiv, where Nazis and their collaborators murdered more than 33,000 Jews in a two-day rampage in 1941. Berman weighs in. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

2026-01-28 | UPDATES #115 | Penguin Camo, Toilet Tents, Turtle Tanks — Russia's War of Improvisation. Is this resourcefulness, or a war that at time descends into absurdity reminiscent of Monty Pyton? There's a line from the Ukrainian front this week that sounds like dark comedy — until you remember it's a war zone, and Ukrainians are being injured, maimed, killed and terrorised. On the other hand, Russia cannot help but being absurd, in a dark and brutal way. “We've got penguins walking around here — no more penguin. Shyakaboom.” That's not just an invented meme. That's a Ukrainian brigade captioning drone footage of a Russian soldier in bizarre winter camouflage. (armyinform.com.ua)Today's news flash is about the aesthetics of desperation: the absurd costumes, the “Mad Max” mobility, and the welded-on metal nonsense Russia is throwing at Ukraine's drone-saturated battlefield — because the old rules of concealment and armoured manoeuvre are getting shredded in real time. Let's start with the viral image: a “penguin” waddling across open snow. The sober version is worse — and more revealing.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: Euromaidan Press (Jan 27, 2026) — “A Russian soldier dressed as a penguin was doing a pretty good job avoiding thermal drones” https://euromaidanpress.com/2026/01/27/penguin-camo/ArmyInform (Jan 27, 2026) — “Penguins Walking Around Here” — An Unusual Camouflage Did Not Save an Occupier https://armyinform.com.ua/en/2026/01/27/penguins-walking-around-here-an-unusual-camouflage-did-not-save-an-occupier/Defense Express / Defence-UA (Jan 25, 2026) — Ukrainian drones hunt down Russia's “turtle tanks” (Video) https://en.defence-ua.com/news/ukrainian_drones_hunt_down_russias_turtle_tanks_on_the_front_line_video-17274.htmlUkrinform (Jan 26, 2026) — Unmanned systems forces demonstrate neutralization of Russian “turtle tank” https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/4084248-unmanned-systems-forces-demonstrate-neutralization-of-russian-turtle-tank.htmlUA.NEWS (Jan 26, 2026) — Air Assault Forces fighters deliver significant damage to Russian equipment - https://ua.news/en/war-vs-rf/biitsi-dshv-zavdali-vidchutnikh-udariv-po-rosiiskii-tekhnitsiMezha (Jan 26, 2026) — Ukrainian 46th Air Assault Brigade Destroys Russian Armor Using Droneshttps://mezha.net/eng/bukvy/ukrainian-46th-air-assault-brigade-destroys-russian-armor-using-drones/amp/Euromaidan Press (Jan 22, 2026) — Russia's tanks can finally shoot through their drone armor.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: First up—a major shakeup inside Beijing, as Xi Jinping purges China's top general amid allegations he leaked nuclear weapons secrets to the United States. We'll break down what this stunning move reveals about growing paranoia, internal power struggles, and instability at the very top of the Chinese Communist Party. Later in the show—even as Ukrainian and Russian officials met to discuss peace, Moscow pressed its campaign against civilians, launching air attacks that knocked out power for more than one million Ukrainians.

Global conflict areas are growing.One of the world's largest airline groups has told Business Daily that airspace closures, due to war zones, are now forcing substantial rerouting of flights. Lufthansa says the ban on using Russian and Ukrainian airspace is having a measurable cost impact on its long haul network, with typical detours of one to two hours.A recent Conflict Intensity index report shows that areas affected by armed fighting have grown by 89% over the past five years, that's one and a half times the size of the European Union.We examine the cost to consumers, and the environmental impacts of these changes.

2026-01-26 | UPDATES #113 | “Treason” in the PLA? Xi's unprecedented purge — corruption, loyalty, and coup rumours. Today's story is not “just another corruption scandal” in China. This is the Chinese Communist Party reaching up into the absolute top of the People's Liberation Army — right into the room where war plans live — and yanking out two senior figures in one move. Top figures in fact. Beijing's official language is clipped. The implications are not. China's defence ministry says it has opened investigations into General Zhang Youxia — a vice chairman of the Central Military Commission, effectively the uniformed number two under Xi Jinping — and General Liu Zhenli, a CMC member and chief of the Joint Staff Department.

Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff is back with a special bonus pod featuring Paul's full appearance on MSNBC's Nightcap with Stephanie Ruhle's 11th Hour, bringing an independent, patriotic, candid, action-focused perspective into the cable news crossfire. Drawing on his experience as founder of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America and host of this show, Paul explains why “we are no longer the good guys” in the eyes of many around the world and how Trump's behavior is shredding decades of trust with allies who fought and bled alongside us in places like Afghanistan and Iraq, including furious NATO partners such as Denmark and Norway. He breaks down how the scheme to “take” Greenland could have triggered NATO's Article 5 against the United States and why veterans across the globe are speaking out.​ Paul warns that Trump is “all gas, no brakes,” charting a plan to dominate America in 2025 and the Western Hemisphere in 2026 while Congress and traditional guardrails fail to stop him. He details the real risk of abusing the Insurrection Act, deploying federal forces against Americans at home, and turning law enforcement into a political weapon against citizens, veterans, cops, and kids—arguing that if it can happen to them, it can happen to you. He also dives into Trump's war on the media and the truth itself, drawing a direct line from attacks on NPR, the Washington Post, CNN, and Stars and Stripes to efforts to twist TikTok and X into the most powerful propaganda machines on the planet, with TikTok's ownership split between Trump allies and Chinese interests creating both a national security crisis and an information warfare nightmare.​ Amid looming snowstorms at home, Paul contrasts Trump's dishonorable conduct with the courage of President Zelensky and the resilience of the Ukrainian people, who endure a daily storm of drones, missiles, and freezing conditions in the name of freedom. He argues that Zelensky is showing the kind of leadership America once modeled—and that we can and must learn from that example right now. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.

Ukraine is heavily reliant on its nuclear power plants, which are also being targeted. There are concerns that without proper maintenance, it could trigger another nuclear disaster. Wyre Davies spoke to the head of Ukraine's nuclear authority.President Trump has claimed the threat posed by Russia and China is one of the reasons the US must acquire Greenland - but rather than antagonise the Kremlin, the pro-Kremlin Russian news service has been full of praise for the US president. Steve Rosenberg reports from Moscow.From South Korea to Western Europe, there's deep concern over falling birth rates – and it was one of the reasons behind France's decision a few years ago to amend its policy regarding egg-freezing for non-medical purposes, bringing it in line with other European countries. Carolyn Lamboley recounts her personal experience.1986 was the year Diego Maradona lifted the World Cup - and when Uganda's president Yoweri Museveni first came to power. Last week, the 81-year-old won his seventh consecutive term in office, Sammy Awami was in Kampala where he heard from young people about how they voted.The 2026 Africa Cup of Nations came to a close in Morocco last weekend and aside from missing the chance to lift the trophy for the first time in fifty years, the tournament proved controversial in Morocco due to the vast sums spent on it.

2026-01-24 | UPDATES #112 | Davos: The Heckle-Fest—and the Cost of America's New Posture. Trump's Gangster Shakedown in Europe. Davos is usually a place where elites congratulate each other for “dialogue,” then fly home in private jets to continue not doing not enough, or to vigorously pursue inaction. This week, though, Davos did something rare: it heckled. And it heckled America — specifically the Trump administration's new habit of treating allies like adversaries, of turning geopolitics into ritual humiliation, and turning diplomacy into a reality show elimination round. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: Reuters — Lutnick heckled at Davos dinner hosted by BlackRock's Fink (Jan 21, 2026).

Anna Danylchuk has been creating a war diary since the early days of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022. Anna Danylchuk aims to tell the truth about Ukraine and Russia's war and cut through the noise and propaganda. Anna is passionate about the beauty and independence of her country, and communicates this powerfully in her videos, in a clear and honest way.----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------LINKS: @AnnafromUkraine https://www.buymeacoffee.com/annafromukraineMy interview with Anna in Lviv - hosted on her excellent channel- https://youtu.be/daHcnsNQ1S0?si=yHbZ2kJZ3CTVRd8Z----------The Steel Porcupine https://www.thesteelporcupine.com/I'm proud to say that this series of ‘Ukrainian advent' interviews is supported by The Steel Porcupine – a unique and powerful film about a country that refuses to lie down, a people who turned themselves into a fortress of needles when Russian tanks rolled in. The Steel Porcupine is an unforgettable cinematic experience that exposes Russia's campaign of extermination in Ukraine, and the Ukrainian people's spirit to resist and prevail. It follows soldiers, volunteers and people who decided that survival meant resistance, not submission.Created by the makers of the acclaimed To the Zero Line, this is another film about humanity, that clearly states there is no such thing as neutrality when war crimes are being committed systematically by Russia, and on a scale in Europe only comparable to World War Two. Set to a haunting soundtrack featuring music by Philip Glass, and blending rare archival footage with original material, it is an impactful work of art and storytelling, as well as being informative.----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

On this episode of The Mark White Show, I'm joined by Alex Fourie, a PGA professional and founder of Single Hand Golf, whose journey began in a Ukrainian orphanage and led to breaking barriers in the world of golf. Born with one arm and facing early life challenges, Alex found purpose and belonging through the game of golf after being adopted and brought to the United States. Today, he is one of the top adaptive golfers in the country, a PGA instructor, and a passionate advocate for children with adaptive needs. In this conversation, Alex shares how golf became more than a sport, how resilience shaped his path, and why giving others the opportunity to belong is at the heart of his mission. From mentoring young golfers to supporting Ukrainian orphans, Alex reminds us that true success is measured by the difference we make in the lives of others.

The people of Iran are in the midst of one of the country's biggest uprisings — and harshest government crackdowns — since the Iranian Revolution. It started with shopkeepers in bazaars closing their doors at the end of December in protest of the plummeting Iranian rial and economic distress. But demonstrations soon spread to universities and across the country to every single province. Working-class Iranians wanted relief — both from the inflation crisis and U.S sanctions.This week on The Intercept Briefing, host Akela Lacy speaks with Hooman Majd, an Iranian American writer and journalist, who explains what sparked the protests and the government's brutal response. “I don't think in the history of Iran, even during the Islamic Revolution, have we seen this number of fatalities.” says Majd. “The death toll is staggering. Really, because that death toll is staggering, what's happened is there are no more protests. And that's where we are right now. No more protest, heavy security on the streets. Massive security on the streets, on every corner. It isn't martial law. But it feels like martial law to people living there.”The path forward is unclear, Majd says. But a few things are certain. “The idea is no to shah, no to an ayatollah, no to theocracy. Let's just, finally, after 120 years of demonstrating — which is what the Iranians have been doing since 1906 — after 120 years of looking for democracy, can we just do that? Can we just get a democracy? That is probably the biggest sentiment in Iran: wanting a democratic rule, wanting the repression to end, wanting better relations with the rest of the world so these sanctions can be lifted.”Some people inside and outside Iran have called on President Donald Trump to intervene. The idea that the U.S. should — or could — impose regime change militarily is folly, Majd says. “Sure, we were able to impose a regime change in Iraq militarily. They can do that again in Iran, possibly with the help of Israel or even without the help of Israel. But then what do you have? Do you have another basically authoritarian, autocratic government?'” Meanwhile, Trump has threatened to intervene in another international arena. He has set his sights on taking over Greenland. Despite walking back his statements pledging to do so by force, Trump has now said he's forming a plan with the secretary general of NATO for Greenland's future. We're joined by independent investigative journalist Lois Parshley, who explains the financial interests behind Trump's obsession with the Arctic island, the billionaires and tech moguls plotting to exploit Greenland's natural resources, and how the people of Greenland have responded to the president's pledge to violate their sovereignty.Shortly before Trump first expressed an interest in Greenland during his first term, his ambassador to Denmark and Greenland visited a major rare earth mining project on the island, Parshley reported last year. “More recently, The Guardian reported that it was Ronald Lauder, heir to the global cosmetics brand [Estée Lauder] who was also a longtime friend of Trump's, who first suggested buying Greenland. He has acquired commercial holdings there and is also part of a consortium who want to access Ukrainian minerals.”Fresh off the invasion of Venezuela, the idea that Trump wants to take over Greenland is even more alarming, Parshley says. “I'm not the first person to report on these kinds of major tech interests in things like crypto states or special economic zones. People have been pointing this stuff out for a long time, but it's not until President Trump started saying the quiet part out loud that people have really been registering some of these absurd concepts that seem to now be creeping toward reality.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.

2026-01-23 | UPDATES #111 | Zelensky blasts Europe's inaction, in a fiery speech at Davos, as Russia “weaponizes winter” cutting power, light and heat to millions of Ukrainians, in the depth of the worst winter the country has seen in decades. Has the enemy's “energy genocide” broken his diplomatic posture? Is he justified in calling out the hubris, complacency and lack of urgency amongst Ukraine's allies – inaction that is contributing to Ukraine ‘bleeding out' on the home front and the front lines, in a way that is entirely preventable? In this episode, we ask if there is any difference in terms of substance between Vance who screamed to Zelenskyy's face, in the Oval Office, about not showing gratitude and being disrespectful, and between the European diplomats, analysts and journalists, that say the same, but in muted tones and behind Ukraine's back. How are the discrete murmurings of disapproval from certain quarters in Europe, hinting at Zelenskys's inappropriate tone, and unseemly directness, really difference from what Vance said, in terms of substance? Those same diplomats and politicians will say there is all the difference in the world – but it's rank hypocrisy and hubris, revealing a lack of imagination and leadership. Because these are the same sentiments, that same self-righteous wounded pride on display, the same manipulations of narratives and sentiments, designed to reinforce the idea that Ukraine is a second-tier ally, and how dare they speak out at our generosity that enables them to bleed on, but not win, stay in the fight to keep the Russian horde from our doorstep, but not to achieve victory. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: Reuters — Davos: Quotes from Zelensky's speech criticising Europe (Jan 22, 2026).

President Donald Trump is laying out his plans for the future of Greenland, as he cancels threatened tariffs on European nations over its acquisition. The president also launched the “Board of Peace” in Davos amid tensions with Western allies—a new international organization aimed at overseeing the peace process between Israel and the Hamas terrorist group, while also addressing other global conflicts.Trump says he had a good meeting Thursday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The Ukrainian leader is now touting plans for the first trilateral meeting between the United States, Ukraine, and Russia since the start of the war.Former special counsel Jack Smith testified before Congress in a public setting for the first time. Lawmakers grilled the attorney who investigated Trump and whose work extended to probing members of Congress. Trump responded by saying he wants the Justice Department to act.

Today, Morgan, Les, Matthew, and Jess discuss the latest diplomatic push around Ukraine, following a flurry of high-level meetings at Davos and beyond. President Trump and President Zelensky met for more than an hour as the World Economic Forum wrapped up, while Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff traveled to Russia to meet with Vladimir Putin. For the first time since the war began, American, Ukrainian, and Russian officials are now slated to meet face-to-face in Abu Dhabi to discuss military and security issues, raising questions about whether momentum toward a negotiated settlement is finally building.But are we actually any closer to peace? What would it take for Putin to seriously engage, given his repeated rejection of past proposals and the political risks he faces at home? Is Trump's increasingly tough rhetoric a signal of leverage, hinting at greater military support for Ukraine if diplomacy fails, or a strategy to give Putin a face-saving off-ramp? @morganlroach@lestermunson@WMattHayden@NotTVJessJonesLike what we're doing here?

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports on talks betwen U.S., Russian and Ukrainian negotiators today.

On today's podcast:1) New York City is poised to get pummeled with more than a foot of snow this weekend, a test for new Mayor Zohran Mamdani, as a massive weather system lands on the region threatening power outages, airline delays and transit system problems. New York’s Central Park may get dumped with as much as 16 inches (41 centimeters) of snow starting Sunday morning, the heaviest of the season. That comes as the storm that will hit Southern states with ice moves into the Northeast, said Brian Hurley, a senior branch forecaster with the US Weather Prediction Center. Washington, Philadelphia and Boston are also expected to see snowfall. If the forecast holds, it would be the biggest snowstorm to hit Manhattan since 2021, based on snowfall records at Central Park.2) The US wants to rewrite its defense agreement with Denmark to remove any limits on its military presence in Greenland, people familiar with the matter said, in what’s become a focal point for negotiators looking to meet President Trump’s demand for control over the territory. The original agreement, signed in 1951 and amended in 2004, says the US must “consult with and inform” Denmark and Greenland before it makes “any significant changes to United States military operations or facilities in Greenland.” The people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified discussing private deliberations, said American negotiators want to rework that language to make sure the US faces no restrictions at all as it makes its plans.3) The Kremlin said the “territorial issue” remains unresolved after President Vladimir Putin held late-night talks with US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner on the latest peace plan for ending Russia’s war on Ukraine. There’s “no hope of achieving a long-term settlement” to the war until Russia’s demands for territory in Ukraine are accepted, Putin’s foreign policy aide, Yuri Ushakov, said in an audio recording on Telegram early Friday. That’s even as he characterized the almost four hours of negotiations in the Kremlin as “exceptionally substantive, constructive.” Talks will continue between US, Russian and Ukrainian representatives in the United Arab Emirates on Friday and Saturday. Separately, Witkoff and Putin’s envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, will discuss bilateral Russia-US economic matters in Abu Dhabi.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Russia's war in Ukraine has orphaned some 2000 Ukrainian children, leaving them with physical and psychological wounds and adult responsibilities beyond their years. Journalist Anna Nemtsova interviewed orphaned children across Ukraine, many of whom witnessed a parent being killed by Russian forces.

On today's podcast:1) President Trump said he would refrain from imposing tariffs on goods from European nations opposing his effort to take possession of Greenland, citing a “framework of a future deal” he said was reached regarding the island. The decision, which Trump announced Wednesday on social media, marks a stark reversal for a president who has repeatedly attempted to coerce Europe over Greenland. It came after a meeting with North Atlantic Treaty Organization Secretary General Mark Rutte at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Still, Trump did not detail the parameters of the so-called “framework” and it was unclear what the agreement entails, especially since Denmark earlier Wednesday ruled out negotiations over ceding the semi-autonomous island to the US.2) Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said he is ready to commit Russian assets that remain frozen in the US to rebuild Ukrainian regions damaged during the war after a peace treaty is concluded. Putin also said he could give $1 billion from the US-based assets - frozen to punish Putin for his 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine - to President Trump’s proposed Board of Peace. The offer has been discussed with the US, Putin said, and he plans to talk about it more Thursday during a meeting with Trump envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner in Moscow.3) US Supreme Court justices suggested they are wary of President Trump’s effort to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over unproven mortgage-fraud allegations, saying the move could upend the Fed’s independence and rattle markets. Hearing arguments in Washington Wednesday, conservative and liberal justices alike sharply questioned US Solicitor General D. John Sauer, who urged the court to let Trump oust Cook for the time being while her lawsuit goes forward. Trump’s own appointees were among the skeptics. Justice Brett Kavanaugh said the president’s position would “weaken if not shatter the independence of the Federal Reserve.” Justice Amy Coney Barrett asked whether the risk to financial markets was reason for “caution on our part,” though she also suggested she wasn’t ready to fully embrace Cook’s position.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

President Trump tells CNBC's Joe Kernen he has ‘the concept of a deal' over Greenland and has stood down his threat of tariffs as a result. The reversal sends U.S. equities back into the green with the S&P 500 posting its best session since November and European futures point to a rebound as well. President Trump prepares for a signing ceremony for his Board of Peace in Davos but some leaders have so far declined to join. Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof tells CNBC his government still has reservations about the agreement. And there are hopes of a bilateral meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy. Polish President Karol Nawrocki warns this channel that Russia will plan to attack Europe in the future irrespective of a Ukrainian peace deal.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Day 1,427.Today, as Donald Trump heads to Davos with what he calls “good news” about Greenland, we examine prime minister of Canada Mark Carney's extraordinary speech at Davos where he warned that we cannot “live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination”. We also report on Moscow's representative to the IAEA dismissing global concern over Russia's strikes on Ukraine's nuclear power plants as overblown.

2026-01-21 | UPDATES #110 | Russia is burning through its gold — is this a sign that Putin's war economy is getting desperate? The easy money is running out – from hydrocarbons, minerals, from the sovereign wealth fund and from strategic reserves. Now Putin must dig deeper to fuel his war mania and lust for conquest – appropriation of businesses, default on financial commitments to the poor and marginalised, and sell off Russia's strategic assets – such as its gold reserves. The Kremlin has started to pawn the crown jewels of its economy, and that signal not only desperation, but the beginning of the end for Putin's vicious regime. ----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------SOURCES: Reuters — oil & gas budget revenue expected to drop 46% y/y in January (Jan 19, 2026).

In this highly charged monologue, Michael Savage rants about the leftist siege of Minneapolis. He criticizes political leaders and discusses the necessity for a stronger military presence. He covers the Somali fraud scandal and the protests sweeping Iran. He then touches on Ukrainian corruption, U.S. military deployments, and media bias. Savage concludes by sharing his views on generational cultural shifts and the decline of once great cities.

The Agency Brief Note ♻️ THE NATIONAL FIREARMS ACT (1934) (Cold Open) "In 1934, Congress looked at a few gangsters with Tommy guns and decided to put every future gun owner on probation… forever… without ever proving we did anything wrong." (The Brief) THE ORIGIN STORY: PANIC AND OPPORTUNISM The Setup: Prohibition ends in 1933. Federal agencies face budget cuts. They need a new war. They choose "The War on Crime." The Hook: DOJ uses the St. Valentine's Day Massacre to sell a "gangster gun" crisis. The Bait & Switch: The NFA was pitched as a tax on "criminal weapons," but the original bill attempted to register all handguns. The NRA (back when they were Fudds) helped kill the handgun portion but let the rest slide. Crucial Detail: SBR/SBS restrictions were only in the bill to prevent people from hiding pistols. When pistols were removed, Congress left the SBR rules in. We are regulating barrel length today because of a 1934 legislative error. THE MECHANISM: A BAN DISGUISED AS A TAX The "Poll Tax": They couldn't ban guns (2A exists), so they used the Taxing Power. The Cost: $200 in 1934. Inflation Adjustment: That is roughly $4,500 today. Intent: It was an economic ban designed to ensure only the wealthy could own modern firepower. The Registry: The true goal was the NFRTR (National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record). Registration is always the prerequisite for confiscation. THE LEGAL COVER-UP: U.S. V. MILLER (1939) The Supreme Court case that upheld the NFA was a setup. The Fix: The defendant, Jack Miller, was dead before the decision was handed down. His court-appointed attorney did not show up to argue the case. The Ruling: The Government argued unopposed that a sawed-off shotgun had no "militia utility." The Court agreed, solely because no one was there to tell them otherwise. THE MODERN IMPACT & REGULATORY CREEP 1986 Hughes Amendment: Proved the danger of registries. Congress used the NFA list to ban all new machine guns for civilians. Note: The Hughes Amendment passed on a fraudulent voice vote where the "Nays" clearly had it, but the Speaker pushed it through. ATF Power Grabs: The NFA definitions are vague. This allows the ATF to write law without Congress (e.g., Pistol Braces, Bump Stocks, Triggers). Culture War: It normalized the "Two-Tier" system. The wealthy buy what they want; the poor get what they are given. CONSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS (POST-BRUEN) The Vulnerability: Under the Bruen test (Text, History, Tradition), the NFA is on death's door. The History: There is zero historical tradition of the Founding Fathers taxing the ownership of standard arms or creating a federal list of owners. The Argument: The government claims these weapons are "dangerous and unusual." We argue they are only unusual because the government has spent 90 years threatening to put us in prison for owning them. WLS is Lifestyle Cold Weather and Medical Prep for Vehicles Amid Michigan Pile-Up ♻️ Article or segment discussing vehicle preparation for cold weather, including medical supplies, in light of a major pile-up incident in Michigan. Submitted by Shawn. Availability: Focuses on practical advice for winter driving safety and emergency preparedness following the Michigan multi-vehicle collision.

New York Targets Polymer80 Seller, Life Sentence ♻️ New York authorities are pursuing severe legal action against a seller of Polymer80 ghost gun kits, seeking a life sentence, highlighting aggressive enforcement against unserialized firearm components.

Some Anti-ICE Protesters in Minnesota Are Openly Carrying: What Does the Law Say? ♻️ Article discusses anti-ICE protesters in Minnesota openly carrying firearms and examines the relevant state laws on open carry. Everytown Is Lying About Impact of National Reciprocity, Again ♻️ Article accuses Everytown for Gun Safety of misrepresenting the effects of national concealed carry reciprocity legislation, claiming their arguments exaggerate risks and ignore benefits for law-abiding gun owners. ATF/DEA Merger Appears DOA ♻️ Reports indicate that plans to merge the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) are effectively dead on arrival (DOA), halting a proposed consolidation of federal law enforcement agencies. NC Lawmakers Dragging Their Feet on Constitutional Carry ♻️ North Carolina lawmakers are delaying progress on constitutional carry legislation, frustrating gun rights advocates amid ongoing debates over permitless carry.
