New Zealand to pass law stating anyone born after 2008 will not be allowed to buy cigarettes, ever. A sort of grandfather clause it will raise the minimum age by one year every year.

I used to want to visit down under & see what Australia & NZ are all about.
Then Covid happened, they locked up all their citizens and their governments went on a power trip.
Both of these countries & their citizens have made it clear they stand for authoritarian socialism.
I'll be rooting against the Aussies & the Kiwis at every opportunity and hope they fail at everything.

Former Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows turned over to the House select committee investigating the 6 January Capitol attack a PowerPoint recommending Donald Trump to declare a national security emergency in order to return himself to the presidency.

The fact that Meadows was in possession of a PowerPoint the day before the Capitol attack that detailed ways to stage a coup suggests he was at least aware of efforts by Trump and his allies to stop Joe Biden’s certification from taking place on 6 January.

Yesssssssss

California governor says he will use legal tactics of Texas abortion ban to implement gun control

Quote:
In light of the Supreme Court's decision, Newsom said he directed his staff to draft a bill that would allow private citizens to seek injunctive relief "against anyone who manufactures, distributes, or sells an assault weapon or ghost gun kit or parts in the State of California."

The bill would also provide for statutory damages of at least $10,000 in addition to attorney's fees, the governor's statement said.


Saw this coming from a mile away…

I'll visit any place interesting
Politics is no factor
I'm in conservative TX
I hate the conservative government
But
That has nothing to do with what areas I visit

I'm literally just a few steps from the beach

That worthless liberal hack Chris Wallace has finally quit Fox News. He announced today would be his last day hosting the Sunday show. Thank God. He's moving to the new CNN streaming service that's launching next year. In other words he's going from the most watched News Network in cable to the least-watched streaming service because nobody's going to watch CNN Plus. Nobody's watching CNN. I'm sure Fox News let him go and made it look like it was his idea. He's going to be 75 this year nobody cares what the old Jackass has to say.

Cool, so now Fox has no actual journalists working at their news network.
