OMG you all just can't let him go. We have a President right now whose administration is reneging on foreign policy agreements, threatening to nuke American citizens, being silent on the NSA spying on journalists, threatening to send government agents to the doors of unvaccinated Americans. Your podcast is allegedly about the power of the Executive Branch? Talk about those overreaches. Talk about the behind the scenes influences telling Biden what he can and cannot say, even though HE is the President. Talk about a President who can barely string a sentence together. Talk about a President who brings note cards to an ice cream shop because he can't be trusted to remember what to talk about. "I'm gonna get in trouble if I talk about this." "They told me not to answer questions." Who the F*** is "they", and why does our President think he's going to get in trouble for talking to people? Talk about THAT.

The answer is no. If people want to pursue unhealthy habits, that is their right. Nobody is forcing black Americans to smoke menthols. This is supposed to be the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. It has turned into the Land of the Regulated and the Home of the Soft.

ends with a statement that the Pelosi pushback is a brilliant move without giving any substantial support as to why it is brilliant... then fades to a commercial. i dig the pod cast just kinda hard to agree when little to no facts are used to support opinion.
