Retiring Rep. @PatrickMcHenry said that the $174,000 Congressmen make isn't enough, saying "Most of us live on the salary. Most of us don't have wealth.".The average income in the U.S. in 2023 was $57,406. Maybe he should try living on that instead.

Court opens at 8:30 am Monday morning. Donald Trump has three options at that time: 1) pay the full amount of the bond due, which is unlikely; 2) declare personal bankruptcy, which is a possibility; or 3) have his assets seized by Letitia James, which is likely. Happy Monday!
