‘Watershed’ $1 trillion defense budget on the horizon

Lindsey Graham on the encounter between a US drone and Russian planes: "What would Ronald Reagan do right now? He would start shooting Russian planes down if they were threatening our assets."

In reality, much like Trump, Reagan always offered a lot of bluster in situations like this, but provided very little in the way of meaningful action.

Trump’s foreign policy was incredibly week whenever anything more than a tweet or a PR stunt was required of him.

Absolute freak show.

DC is the gayest place on Earth.

DOJ charges Chinese businessman Guo Wengui, associate of Steve Bannon, in $1 billion fraud

I’ve warned you all about this Chinese dirtbag for years.

Will China propose a spy swap for Guo Wengui? (AKA Miles Kwok)

Look very closely at who has NOT mentioned the arrest of Miles Kwok today. It may be fair to assume that they have been on his payroll.

This really says it all.

When the heat is on, some people stand strong. Others have “no comment.”

I've never worn glasses or contacts in my life. But I got LASIK this morning. Wow. I am speechless.

Isn’t there a risk of blindness with that surgical procedure?

There are no documented case reports of blindness from the procedure.

Of course, there are certain people who suffer very rare complications, usually related to operator error on the part of the ophthalmologist or some unforeseeable genetic issue. Thankfully however, the vast majority of these complications are curable.

There was a big negative PR campaign against LASIK in the media a few years ago. My guess—and it's only a guess—is that this negative PR campaign was funded by a major player in the prescription lens business. Kind of like the great vaping scare of 2019, which was funded by big tobacco companies.

This podcast spent an episode defaming me. Meanwhile, they were getting paid off to encourage their audience of lemmings to pile their money into Silicon Valley Bank.

Did you know that synthetic testosterone is usually derived from soy?

Does that mean that bodybuilders are the greatest soyboys of all?

This is an unbelievably dishonest and elaborate example of a native ad.

Of course the “random guy from TikTok” is a prolific commercial actor.

There’s little to no evidence that QE causes inflation. Reckless fiscal policy certainly does.
