It was as if I were dreaming. A soft, surreal haze enveloped me as I opened my eyes, only to find myself surrounded by a group of alien Grays. Their large, unblinking eyes hovered above me like something out of a nightmare. Before I could process what was happening, I felt a sharp pinch at…

It was hard to imagine anything worse than starting high school in a town with a population smaller than the cheerleading squad back in Reno. But that was Janie Wilson’s life now–Virginia City. A town so small and quiet it might as well have been the afterlife, except the dead were probably better company than…

Data analysts with the Election Truth Alliance (ETA), a non-partisan non-profit organization focused on election analysis, have completed an independent investigation into ballot-level voting data in Clark County for the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. Their findings suggest patterns consistent with vote manipulation, similar to those in countries with confirmed election interference, such as Georgia and…

Marshal Elijah Turner was riding through the scrubland, his horse, Samson, kicking dust behind him. The sun was high, and the heat was relentless, but his mind was elsewhere. He heard the voices before he saw the scene: two men, their voices harsh and cruel, laughing over some dark jest. Rounding a bend, he saw…

The door swung open, and in walked Jackson, a figure from his past, rugged and relentless. “You know, Tuff,” Jackson began, his voice a gravelly…

A reddish moon hung low and lazy in the western Nevada sky, casting long shadows over the scrubland of Five Mile Canyon, south of Virginia City. Cole Anders and Jesse “Buck” Tanner moved with a quiet purpose, their eyes fixed on the cabin where the three killers holed up. Suddenly, a figure darted from the…

“Whiskey is for drinking, water is for fighting.” They say Mark Twain said that, though I reckon it might’ve been some fellow who’d had too much of the first and not enough of the second. Either way, it stuck in my head as I prepared for a fate worse than fighting over water—waiting for a…
