It may not seem like it but this is an advertisement. Dave is selling you a lie. The average family making $79k a year cannot afford to plunk away $1k a month much less get a 13% ROI on that money. He's telling you you're bad with money and your answer is to follow him and do what he does.

The thing of it with these "I work all week" chumps is that even in a world where she is a stay at home mom and he's the only source of income, that still doesn't mean you get to check out on the weekend and leave it all to her. And chances are damn good you're not the only source of income.

If you need any reminder that people who use slurs to describe our political opponents are not actually on our side, look here. In particular, using that slur for an autistic man. These posters et al. don't look at minorities or the disabled as equally human. They're not our friends, nor allies.

In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago. These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer. This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.

I *definitely* expect him to croak, but I'm not marrying myself to a timeline. Even with as piss poor of a job as he's doing, even with as much passing off decisions to his courtiers as he's done, and even with as little pushback as he's getting from so much of America, it's still too much for him.

A perverse charisma and a media that's eager to lie on his behalf is the magic that keeps Trump afloat. Vance has neither. Near as I can tell, no one wants to be in the room with him longer than they have to while folks are STILL scraping and pleading for the approval of Weekend at Bernie's POTUS.

He is, and there's no part of any of this that should be taken as 'good' but I'll still take him in a heartbeat over Trump. Even ignoring the fact that it's really bad for a guy who's losing his mind as he gets closer to death has nuclear launch codes, Vance is fundamentally weaker than Trump.

Not surprising given that they've been demanding to have their own Trump installed since the moment they saw it work for him and are frothing mad that the Dems haven't rolled over for their imagined candidate like Rs did for Trump.
