While the connection between oral health and general health is well documented, it’s not generally discussed at well or dental visits. It should be: An April 2022 report from The National Institutes of Health found that 90% of adults ages 20 to 64 experience tooth decay, while almost 50% of adults 45 to 64 have gum disease. Dr. Michael Roizen, chief wellness officer at Cleveland Clinic, says oral diseases have a large association with overall health. Research has shown that there’s an association between your dental health habits and whether or not you develop diabetes, Alzheimer’s, stroke, or heart disease.…

The jury found former CEO Wayne LaPierre cost the guns group $5.4m through lavish spending on himself.
The liberal journal The Atlantic is reporting that unless they receive “guidance” from the U.S. Supreme Court, House Democrats might not certify the 2024 election if Trump wins. Isn’t this the entire basis for the Democrat/Media freakout over January 6th? Isn’t this why so many Trump supporters are currently suffering in prison? Aren’t these the same Democrats who have been shrieking about the importance of ‘our democracy’ for years now? It really looks as though their whole political philosophy boils down to nothing mattering unless they win. Democrats: The worst thing in the history of the world — punishable…

The New York Jets have a ton of areas of weakness heading into the 2024 offseason, but one of their more under-appreciated needs coming up is a backup quarterback. The lack of a competent reserve signal-caller in 2023 doomed the Jets to their 13th straight year without a playoff appearance. With 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers returning from an Achilles injury and a third straight year of nothing from Zach Wilson, the Jets need to prioritize a designated survivor if Rodgers does go down again. Jets owner Woody Johnson said as much during the NFL Honors. “[We] need a backup quarterback,”…

In an UpFront special, we discuss where the war in Ukraine currently stands and where it is heading. It’s been two years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, causing mass destruction and a mounting civilian death toll. Even with support from the West, Ukraine is facing increased weapons and infantry shortages as its fight against Russian forces carries on, seemingly with no end in sight. So what future lays ahead for Ukraine and could the war spill over into neighbouring countries? Are peace negotiations even possible or does it run the risk of becoming an endless war? In…
Politics House Republicans are attempting to impeach Joe Biden. Why? They believe there is enough evidence to suggest the president and his son Hunter Biden were accepting bribes or at least engaged in pay-to-play schemes with various countries, and in particular Ukrainian energy company Burisma. An impeachment inquiry source, Alexander Smirnov, was recently charged with making false statements to the FBI on the matter. Republicans had previously called Smirnov “highly credible” and said that his claims were “direct evidence of naked corruption and bribery.” This caused CNN host Abby Phillip to grill Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz over Smirnov and…
