Getting my my tax records ready for the accountant. Clergy taxes are fun! Iโ€™m proud to do my part. After all, someone has to pay for the Trump-Musk administrationโ€™s shady deals and Trumpโ€™s excessive golf vacations!

Your Therapist Is a Trump Supporter โ€” Now What? Navigating relationship differences is tough. But what do you do when you find out that your therapist voted for Donald Trump? Women weigh in.

A therapist without empathy? Hard pass.

Trump's CFPB, now under the command of billionaire hedge fund manager Scott Bessent, has halted the Biden admin's rule to ban medical bills from credit reports.

It's been estimated that the rule would help improve the credit scores of 15 million people.

Some populist, huh?
