Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.

Another in a seemingly endless series of very busy weeks but we've got you covered. First up: The Oracle himself, Governor Haley Barbour. He's got a perspective of 50 years in politics, so we thought we have him on to see what he thinks of the last few months. Prepared to get schooled. Then, as freedom of speech on digital platforms --like the one you're reading right now-- is now one of the most important issues facing society, we thought we have on someone who is on the front lines of the debate. Meet Venture Capitalist and fierce 1st Amendment advocate David Sacks (and be sure to watch the extended cut David's segment in our new members only feature, Rob Long's Six Dumb Questions which can be found here). Also, impeachment, Pelosi, and yes, Rob Long predicts the coming re-unification of the Republican Party. You heard it here first.

    Single-use litter boxes, delivered to your door?

    Wow. The whole country REALLY IS being turned into a gigantic assisted-living facility.

    I also note that that sponsor does not appear above. ^

    I thought the litter boxes were intended for the domesticated animals(ie: cats and dogs).

    Has this become a Vegan thing …. who knew?

    Yes, but it's still becoming an assisted-living facility in that more and more, nobody has to leave their home for anything: food, tools, electronics... and now pre-filled, disposable litter boxes! Yes, for their pets. But people have been able to get their own "litter" - toilet paper - delivered for quite some time. This is another step.
