Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

I have worked in reality TV for over 26 years. Over the past 3.75 years, I have produced 61 episodes of BELLE COLLECTIVE, 41 as showrunner. And with this reunion, I have my first solo credit card as Executive Producer. I am so proud of this cast, this crew, this show and of me! #bellecollective

I’m flying internationally next week so I’m prepping for it thusly: 1) Getting flu and COVID vaccines 2) Downloaded “Yakety Sax” to my phone to play loudly in case someone tries to preach during my plane ride.

I don’t think the Dr. Fauci diary “scandal” is going to lower the price of gasoline or ground beef. I think voters care more about the economy than an 85-year-old doctor who got star struck by Barbra Streisand. 🎶The Way We Were🎶 is iconic so I get it.
