It's #EqualPayDay!

There is a lot of work to be done to eradicate the gender and race pay gap. So, let's start moving toward equality today.
Spoiler: There is a lot of work to be done to reach parity.
And... it's going to take some time to get there.
But, as you can see, society has made some big strides.
However, there are some places in the U.S. that need more help than others...
And when you look at the bigger picture, the issue is quite glaring.
The gender pay gay is just one piece of the puzzle. It's time to eradicate the race and ethnicity pay gap, as well.
What a wonderful equal world it could be.
All we have to do is work together to raise the minimum wage, make work environments safer and provide more employee protections. Let's get to it.

George Santos’ campaign reports are such a mess that he can’t find anyone to help him untangle them. bit.ly/3wxLZPR
Chaos followed a blitz of amended Federal Election Commission filings on Tuesday, which among other things included a change in the source of Santos’ loans, which the campaign previously attributed to his “personal funds.” bit.ly/3wxLZPR
Of course, these revelations could carry profound implications for Santos’ “self-funded” political run writes @SollenbergerRC. bit.ly/3wxLZPR

A power struggle has begun playing out among George Santos’s staff, Puck reporter @tina_nguyen tells Fever Dreams podcast co-hosts @WillSommer and @KELLYWEILL. bit.ly/4010Oba
The struggle is “between [new hire, far-right “fixer” and longtime Steve Bannon ally, Vish Burra,] and other staffers whose entire deal was like, ‘All right, we’re just gonna put our heads down and hope this passes over,’” Nguyen said. bit.ly/4010Oba
And despite Santos’ repeated attempts to ingratiate himself with the chamber’s far-right caucus, the effort doesn’t even appear to be working.

“One person who’s really familiar with the inner organs of that group told me they consider him a ‘try hard.’” bit.ly/4010Oba
