What are your favorite guns for someone who is not a big gun enthusiast but is passionate about self defense?

Like, you aren't optimizing for a zombie apocalypse but you want your wife to be able to pick up the gun and defend the house from intruders if need be, and the gun's maintenance levels have been maybe questionable but it's reliable enough to still probably work reliably and she can wield it.

🚨🇺🇸HISTORIC: US FREEZES MOST FOREIGN AID FOR FIRST TIME EVER

For the first time in U.S. history, nearly all foreign aid has been frozen following an executive order from Trump.

Only military aid to Israel and Egypt and select humanitarian food programs remain exempt.

The U.S. is the largest global aid donor, spending over $50 billion annually on programs ranging from health and education to disaster relief.

This freeze impacts thousands of initiatives worldwide, leaving aid groups scrambling as they face immediate funding cuts.

The move aligns with Trump’s directive to review all foreign aid spending, ensuring it fits his foreign policy priorities.
