Since before its founding, the United States of America has depended upon its militias to defend and maintain its freedom from incursion by foreign adversaries on American soil. Although frequently the subjects of scorn or ridicule, there are over 500 militias in existence within the country's borders today.

7 August, 2017 It was at the height of a mid-Winter storm in the South Atlantic.

Ever since 1993 when President Bill Clinton first spent his Summer vacation on Martha's Vineyard, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been fascinated by the United States' willingness to have such a concentration of the nation's power elite, both governmental and otherwise, concentrated on this one-hundred square mile island in the Atlantic Ocean.

The One Road was the maritime route to Western Europe by way of the ...

These men and women made up the shadow government. There were those in the print and broadcast media who reveled in...
