Here's something you can show to those who resist $15/hr minimum wage

There's been such an unacceptable erosion of wages and benefits for the average American over many decades, particularly for low-income citizens. It's well past time to right that wrong.

Mike Pence offers to provide transition guidance to Kamala Harris

If you're Kamala, do you meet with Mike to see if there's anything of value to be gleaned, or do you tell him to go pound sand?


WASHINGTON/WILMINGTON, Del. (Reuters) - Vice President Mike Pence reached out to Vice President-elect Kamala Harris on Thursday, sources familiar with the situation said, marking the first contact at that level between the outgoing and incoming administrations.

Pence has increasingly taken on the public roles involved in government transition. President Donald Trump, despite pledging to work toward a smooth transfer of power, has not contacted President-elect Joe Biden or explicitly acknowledged that Biden won the November election. Trump spent the weeks since the Nov. 3 election questioning its integrity and claiming falsely that he won.

Pence certified Biden and Harris’s electoral win in Congress last week after Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in attempt to stop the process. Pence faced strong pressure from the president to intervene in an attempt to throw the election Trump’s way.

The vice president has trips scheduled this weekend to say goodbye to troops.

Name a better album than Fleetwood Mac's Rumours

I've been listening again lately and I can't get over how great Rumours is from top to bottom:

"I Don't Want to Know"
"Dreams"
"Never Going Back Again"
"Don't Stop"
"Go Your Own Way"
"Songbird"
"The Chain"
"You Make Loving Fun"
"Second Hand News"
"Oh Daddy"
"Gold Dust Woman"

Not only that but "Silver Springs" was recorded for Rumours but wound up as a B-side to "Go Your Own Way."

"Silver Springs" does appear on the 35th anniversary edition of Rumours, however.

Just a fantastic album that also, of course, spawned this iconic cover:
