Online gambling in the United States is very popular these days and, frankly, is a huge part of the entertainment culture all over the USA. More and more states have legalized gambling, so you won’t have to pick between Las Vegas and Atlantic City anymore.

By Lisa McCormick What we are witnessing today at the Department of Government Efficiency is a terrifying tale of bureaucratic malfeasance, unfettered billionaire greed, and the brutal dismantling of the institutions that protect the most vulnerable in our society. The foundation of our government, once tasked with safeguarding the lives of ordinary Americans, is being systematically gutted under the guise of efficiency by Elon Musk’s new agency: the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Under this administration, the people who need Social Security’s support the most — the elderly, the disabled, and the most vulnerable — are being treated as expendable in a fiscal game. This saga began in February, when 82-year-old Ned Johnson of Seattle received a letter from his bank offering “condolences” for his death. The problem? He’s very much alive. The letter informed him that the Social Security Administration (SSA), under Musk’s newly hired team at DOGE, had... Read more →

Delta 8 THC has quickly become one of the most sought-after cannabinoids, offering an experience somewhere between CBD and Delta 9 THC in terms of mildness. For those hesitant to experience cannabis' more powerful effects, Delta 8 vapes could offer a practical yet gentle option to explore. This guide will cover everything about Delta 8 vapes, including what they are, how they operate, and whether or not they may be right for you. What Is Delta 8 THC?
