Get Progressive Politics Out of Foreign Policy, Says JD Vance
“Right now, you know that Joe Biden is not sending weapons to Taiwan, weapons that we promised the Taiwanese, because we’re sending those weapons to Ukraine or elsewhere,” Vance said.

A Bad Idea Resurfaces: Using the US Military Against Mexico’s Drug Cartels
There has been a recent flurry of proposals to have the U.S. military launch a full-scale war against Mexican drug cartels – primarily to stem the alleged fentanyl crisis. Former Attorney General William P. Barr initiated the latest campaign with an op-ed in the March 2, 2023, Wall Street Journal. “America can no longer tolerate narco-terrorist cartels,” Barr raged. “Operating from havens in Mexico, their production of deadly drugs on an industrial scale is flooding our country with this poison. The time is long past to deal with this outrage decisively.”

What is the outrage around Bud Light’s collaboration with a trans influencer
What is the outrage around Bud Light’s collaboration with a trans influencer
“From time to time, we produce unique commemorative cans for fans and for brand influencers, like Dylan Mulvaney,” the statement read. “This commemorative can was a gift to celebrate a personal milestone and is not for sale to the general public.”
All of these snowflakes boycotting Bud Light for one single can that’s not even available for sale to the public?! I just laugh! It’s all about marketing and sales! It’s not “wokeness”, it’s the “free market”! That’s capitalism! Besides, didn’t have a problem drinking Bud Light, before, and Bud Light was marketing to the LGBTQ+ community long before “wokeness” became a thing!
The Tragedy of US Diplomacy Pushing for War, But Never Peace

The title of Parsi’s article, “The U.S. Is Not an Indispensable Peacemaker,” refers to former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright’s use of the term “indispensable nation” to describe the U.S. role in the post-Cold War world.
