Sci-fi, gaming, coding, some science (particularly marine/climate and remote sensing). Also random things that my cats or kids have done or grumping about politics, probably.
Depends if he's going to enforce it. He gets to decide it if he wants to use the US military to enforce it, though you would imagine destroying Venezuela's air defences would require congressional authorisation for use of force.

If he's not going to enforce it, it's just bluster.

You aren't breaking the law. You've got no obligation to chase down their customer support email and send them your driver's license details. They're breaking the law, they're supposed to ask, but you aren't.

Oh. That's disappointing. Sorry then!

But it isn't political to say the sky is blue. Where something is obviously true it should be ok to say that (with evidence) even if you are contradicting a senior politician. The broadcasting rules need to change to make that clear.

Also "Climate change isn't real."

The problem arises when one (or more) major parties attaches itself to a fantasy claim. Broadcast media doesn't dare contradict them because they will claim the broadcaster is taking a political position.

Because the important word in "wellness industry" is "industry". They're there because they're making money out of it, they largely don't give a damn about your wellness.

There has never in history been a shortage of snake oil salesmen or desperate people willing to buy quack cures.
