The Biden administration’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA) took a significant new step on Wednesday that would effectively ban cigarettes currently on the market in favor of those with lower levels of nicotine. Kiss those traditional Marlboros and Winstons good bye… the he-man’s cigarette of choice is gonna […]
Wednesday follow-ups. Red dots, destroyers, Sabotage, Mangione, Kavanaugh

Anthony Blinken, our Secretary of State, defended the Biden administration’s action in Afghanistan…the Washington Times says it “didn’t go too bad.” Yep, that’s the bar we all aspire to – “Joe Biden: The Inferiorily Mediocre Administration.” “I firmly believe the president’s decision to withdraw from Afghanistan was the right one,” he told […]
