We’ve all been there. You’re running for federal office, the race is hot, the polls are tight, but you’re doing OK. Then, whammo: A porn star informs you that she’s about to tell the world you had an extramarital affair with her a few months after your wife gave birth to your youngest child . What do you do? You pay her off, of course. Well, let’s not be hasty. Maybe you should deny and ride it out—an especially appealing option if it was a lie or a dubious claim that the vast majority of people, including your wife, would not find credible. Joe Biden did this in 2020 and won. But you’re not Joe Biden. You’re a self-aggrandizing womanizer with a known history of extramarital affairs and allegations of sexual misconduct . Worse, one day before this porn star approached you, the world learned that—right around the time of this alleged affair—you’d also been caught on tape bragging that you’re so famous you can do “anything” you want to women, like, for … [Read more...] about How to Pay Off a Porn Star (If You Really Must)

White House Economic Plan Puts Migrants Ahead of American Families
President Joe Biden’s White House is prioritizing jobs for migrants above helping many millions of poor Americans get decent jobs, according to priorities in its annual “Economic Report of the President.” A growing share of men are not even trying to find jobs, the baby boom generation is retiring, and there are fewer young Americans, said the Biden-endorsed report , which listed several “Options to Boost the U.S. Labor Supply.” The report’s first option for raising the number of workers is “Increasing Immigration” — not helping Americans get decent jobs. It says: Overall, research also suggests that the effects of newly arrived immigrants on the wages and employment of the domestic population are quantitatively very small, and that the fiscal effects of immigration are generally positive. Vast evidence shows migration cuts family wages and spikes housing cost s, yet the report also urges an amnesty for at least 11 million “undocumented individuals” and the … [Read more...] about White House Economic Plan Puts Migrants Ahead of American Families

Judge John on Hodgman on What Really Counts as a Hobby
Matt writes: 15 years ago, I was playing Scattergories with some co-workers. I was close to winning. The category was “hobbies,” and the letter was T. I submitted “typing.” I was shut down, and my arguments were met with laughter. But surely if the letter had been W, “writing” would qualify! Can “typing” be considered a hobby? No. I personally do miss the deep haptic, tickety-tack pleasure of slamming those keys down on the manual typewriter I had (pretentiously) in high school. But the hobby was not “typing.” The hobby was “terrible poetry writing.” If there are any true, pure hobby typists out there, I’m sorry. Feel free to type me some angry letters. But unless they literally read “MDZSJFJFDS!” or whatever, you’re ALL frauds. I’m sorry your co-workers were mean, and yes, T for “hobbies” is a hard pull in Scattergories. But take the L (for the hobby of “letting it go after 15 years”). … [Read more...] about Judge John on Hodgman on What Really Counts as a Hobby
Who Fears a Free Mikhail Khodorkovsky?
Mikhail Khodorkovsky, once his country’s richest man, has resided in “gulag lite,” as he calls the Russian penal system under Vladimir Putin, for six years. Since the spring, on most working days he is roused at 6:45 in the morning, surrounded by guards and packed into an armored van for the drive to court. For two hours each way, the man who once supplied 2 percent of the world’s oil crouches in a steel cage measuring 47 by 31 by 20 inches. Convicted of tax evasion and fraud in 2005, Khodorkovsky now faces a fresh set of charges that add up to the supposed theft of $30 billion. In the dark of the van, Khodorkovsky tries to prepare for his trial, replaying in his mind his night reading, the daily stack of documents from his lawyers. But Russia’s most famous prisoner worries too about what would happen if a car slammed into the van. (Collisions are routine in Moscow’s clotted avenues.) “Your chances of making it out alive,” he wrote me one day this summer, “at any speed, are next to … [Read more...] about Who Fears a Free Mikhail Khodorkovsky?
