Angry Mom: Oh, Honey — If Anybody’s ‘Out of Touch’, It’s You

I wasn’t going to waste my time on the over-privileged, excessively- pampered trophy wife Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin stupidly took with him on a recent taxpayer- funded business trip . Linton was on a government-funded jet, and cited her husband's service as part of her punch-down of a critic https://t.co/DfJ1GOMvlf — Maggie Haberman (@maggieNYT) August 22, 2017 But after thinking about her rude, snotty, and insanely ill-informed reply to someone who took issue with her gross display of wealth, I think I should expend a few words. Mrs. Mnuchin believes she and her spouse contribute more to the country than whomever it was who critiqued her behavior. No. They and their kind are leeches. Bloodsuckers. Literally part of the great vampire squid empire Matt Taibbi described. They do not add value to this country. They chew at its foundations in great, monster-sized bites. And they believe they are entitled to do so. But they’re wealthy! Look at all the money they have , one mig...

Whether you’re grabbing an apartment near campus or relocating to a new city for your dream job, moving can be an exciting but stressful time . Consult this guide to get prepared and get the most out of your upcoming move. Clear Out Clutter Purging your closet, cupboards, basement storage and any other place in your current space that holds clutter is the first thing you should do before you even consider packing. It’s a good idea to have three bins, one marked “Keep,” one marked “Donate” and one marked “Sell.” Ultimately, it would be great if you could have a yard sale or sell stuff you no longer want or need online to defray some of your moving expenses. Make A Moving Budget Speaking of reducing expenses, it’s helpful to have a clear understanding of what it’s going to cost you to move. Compile a list of movi...

Firefighters responded to a fire call Thursday evening and spent more than five hours on the scene. Much of the time, police and fire personnel were going in and out of the building and a garage wearing gas masks . Peopl...
