The Biden Administration has outed itself again. It is now abundantly clear that Joe Biden’s mandate mayhem is arbitrary, out of control, and…all about control! Just who is calling the shots on the shots? Is it the unions? Is it the World Health Organization? The drug companies? It’s certainly not the SCIENCE. And by the way, how much more will ‘they’ do to make us comply? From masking kids to vaxxing adults who don’t need it or want it…Mike and his guests look for answers and discuss ways for us to protect our individual liberty and that of our kids.
