One thing I’ve learned so far in quarantine is that my husband refuses to microwave anything for 45 seconds, he always does 44. When I asked him why, he said, “For Obama.”

A Witch Window. Placed in the gable-end wall of a house & rotated 45 degrees. Found mainly in Vermont's 19th century farmhouses, witches cannot fly their broomsticks through tilted windows. #FolkloreThursday @FolkloreThurs pic.twitter.com/WPHihE41Fm

Obama "continues to be an influential voice in a party torn between celebrating and vilifying corporate power"

BB:

Last month, just before her book “What Happened” was published, Barack Obama spoke in New York to clients of Northern Trust Corp. for about $400,000, a person familiar with his appearance said. Last week, he reminisced about the White House for Carlyle Group LP, one of the world’s biggest private equity firms, according to two people who were there. Next week, he’ll give a keynote speech at investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald LP’s health-care conference.

...

“Not everyone’s going to be a Jimmy Carter, who does purely good works after he gets out,”

"President Obama and his family escaped a room at Breakout Waikiki during their winter vacation to Hawaii"

RE:

We recently interviewed MacGregor Greenlee, General Manager of Hawaiian Operations at Breakout Waikiki about his experience hosting the Obamas.

...

It wasn’t clear which room President Obama was going to do because they had a party of about 30 people who split into four different rooms. His daughters chose our Mission Manoa room which is based on a room at our original location (Breakout Kansas City) and features a hand cuffing component. As you can imagine, the Secret Service was not going to allow anyone in the room to be handcuffed, especially the President!

Some of those scripted lines, he says were provided by recent UCLA graduate Adam Swart, CEO of a company called Crowds on Demand, which will stage rallies and demonstrations for any almost candidate or cause.

Swart says he has employed actors to sway city officials in meetings across the country.

"So then what happened last night?"

The Awl:

Now American politics has an entrenched coalition of religious or religious-seeming largely white people, with a small pocket of well-off funders and bundlers who actually benefit from Republican financial ideas, as oppose to the poor whites who imagine they will benefit from those ideas—and there's mostly the rest of us.
