401ks are stupid. "Wow, I can't wait to finally have 600 thousand dollars at age 65 to last me the next 20 years. I'm glad I spent 40 years as a slave."

If you read this carefully, I am not defending the Newsoms. Nor am I defending the majority of GOP politicians & influencers, who are also hypocrites preaching traditional values they do not follow in their own lives. Cons: Practice what you preach Libs: Preach what you practice

What I find interesting about the Newsoms is that they both relentlessly promote liberal/left ideologies that are corrosive to family formation and undermine traditional values. However, at the same time, they've been in a heterosexual marriage for 20+ years and have 4 children together. By those measures, they are more "trad" in terms of their own lifestyle than most Americans are, even a lot of conservatives aren't married with 4 kids. So what that tells me is the Newsoms KNOW that the traditional family model is the best; that's why they chose it when they both could've chosen anything else. But as elites they still promote insidious ideologies that end up harming the ordinary people who listen to them. It's a perfect illustration of "luxury beliefs."

Crowds as far as the eye can see for Bernie Sanders in Minnesota.



The City of Champaign is enacting an emergency order restricting the sale of alcohol on the U of I’s campus ahead of tomorrow’s Elite Eight matchup against Iowa. The mayor says it’s, “…to reduce the possibility of public safety hazards…” Hear about it tonight at 5 on WCIA 3.
