Oops! White House staffers received an email on Tuesday night with instructions on how to vacate the office. But according to Business Insider, aides were told to 'disregard' the message on Wednesday morning. The message also stated that staff 'will start departing' the week of January 4, and final paychecks will run through January 19, 2021. The confusion surrounding the departure process comes as President Donald Trump desperately tries to cling to power, despite losing the 2020 election. President-elect Joe Biden will be sworn in on Inauguration Day, which takes place on January 20th, 2021. In the unlikely event that Trump refuses to leave the White House, Secret Service agents could be asked to escort him out.
Financial consultant Alli Williams was just 29 when she took on $154,000 of her husband's debt when they got hitched. Since then, they've paid off $50,000 of the debt, including an auto loan, some student loans, and a credit card. Not only that, but they also paid for a wedding, college tuition, and have saved for a baby and a house. According to Business Insider, Williams believes in prioritizing expenses, such as bonding activities and savings goals, but not in harsh deprivation. On a practical level, every paycheck is divvied up between bills, savings, and debt repayment. As for windfalls such as gifts, bonuses, or tax refunds, Williams sets allocation percentages without knowing the amount. For example, 50% will usually go toward debt, another 20% towards savings, and so on. When the money hits the bank account, she doesn't have to dither!
Presidential campaigns today seem to be massive, well-oiled machines. But that doesn't mean American election history is without its oddities. For example, the Farmers Almanac says President Zachary Taylor never, ever voted. He kept his political beliefs a secret all the way up until his 1848 election. According to The Famer's Almanac, George Washington’s entire campaign budget for his 1758 election to the House of Burgesses was spent on liquor. Borrowing an English tradition, Washington spent 50 British pounds on 160 gallons of alcohol that was given to 390 voters. Originally, only white male American property owners could vote in US elections. But the 1920 Nineteenth Amendment gave women the right to vote, too. According to the Farmer's Almanac, since 1964, more women voters have gone to the polls than male voters during presidential election years.
President Donald Trump has changed his thinking, and now says he wants a big stimulus bill passed before the general election on November 3rd. Fed Chair Jay Powell also wants to see one passed and has warned that without one, the US economy's recovery will surely falter. But the Republican-led Senate hasn't passed a new coronavirus relief bill since April 21st, and shows little signs of doing so before the election. According to Business Insider, the GOP is far more concerned with getting the Supreme Court tilted to the right by having Amy Coney Barrett confirmed. For more than five months, Congress has held up a comprehensive stimulus package for tens of millions of Americans and left them in limbo. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell wants a so-called 'skinny' bill, while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is holding out for far more for the American worker.
