According to Business Insider, nearly 140 million votes have already been counted, exceeding 2016's record-breaking 137.1 million votes.

  • Report: Trump Is Making DC's Swamp Wider And Deeper

    When then-candidate Donald Trump was stumping for office, he repeatedly promised to 'drain the swamp' inside the DC beltway. But according to Business Insider, a New York Times investigative report reveals the Trump administration is decidedly boggy. Individuals, foreign governments, and lobbyists are spending big at President Donald Trump's resorts and hotels, and, in turn, are benefitting from his administration. 60 individuals had spent $12 million in Trump's businesses and, in some form, saw their interests advanced by his administration.

To give yourself the rest and peace you need to deal with a demanding job, start by decluttering your calendar, your obligations, and your environment. Cease unnecessary activities that sap your physical or emotional strength. Declutter your home so it's easy to find things, and fix or replace what's broken. Set up automatic habits that support you in health and reduce decision fatigue. Finally, eliminate everything in your environment that tempts you in ways you don't want to be tempted!
