WASHINGTON, D.C. (August 20, 2026)–During a Senate hearing held on August 20, 2026, Senator John Kennedy asks Nancy Pelosi how she was able to gain $250 million during her 37 years as a Congresswoman.
Kennedy said, “I counted money for the state of Louisiana. Every bond issue, every disbursement, every dollar that moved through that office had to add up at the end of the day. And when a number did not add up, it was my job to find out why. He looked at her. Ma’am, this number does not add up.”
” Let us be generous,” Kennedy said.
“Using the average salary for a congressmember, $174,000 a year times 37 years. That is about $6.4 million before taxes. Ma’am, you are worth more than $200 million,” he said.
“If a person saved every dollar of salary, ma’am, never ate, never paid rent, never put gas in the car, never turned on a light, that person would need to work for over 1,400 years to reach your net worth.”

Time and time again, we see corruption in our federal, state, and local governments, but nobody ever goes to jail. According to Spotlight PA, out of 100 Senators, 77 members are millionaires. Out of the 435 members of the House of Represenatives 60 percent are millionaires.
This financial disparity raises serious concerns about how connected elected officials are to average citizens, and it sheds light on why there is so little legislative support for term limits. We need greater transparency and reform to address these systemic issues in our government.

Downsizing a family home is one of life’s more significant transitions, and one of its more emotionally complex. A family home is not just a house; it is the repository of decades of life, holding not only belongings but memories, milestones, and the accumulated evidence of years lived together. When the time comes to move to something smaller, whether prompted by an empty nest, retirement, or a change in circumstances, the family faces the daunting task of deciding what to do with it all. Approaching this thoughtfully, with a clear way to sort what to keep, sell, and store, turns an overwhelming undertaking into a manageable and even meaningful process.
Living in a community governed by a homeowners association comes with benefits, well-maintained common areas, protected property values, shared amenities, but it also comes with rules, and sometimes with confusion about who has the authority to do what. Many homeowners are unclear about what their HOA board can and cannot do, and about their own rights as members of the association. This uncertainty can lead to conflict, frustration, and disputes that better understanding would prevent. A clear grasp of the scope and limits of HOA board authority, and of homeowner rights, helps everyone in a community coexist more smoothly. Here is a primer on what HOA boards can and cannot do.
