Disney did what Disney does in 2023 when it came time for a new “Little Mermaid” film.

(Reminder: Every episode is now in the Unwoke section of our new podcast page. I’ll still be doing teaser blurb posts in Columns as reminders that new episodes are up.)

The debt limit crisis came and went with much unnecessary fanfare. The ultra-wealthy donors with combined billions invested in the stock market—the ones who own the leadership of both parties—were never going to permit the payments servicing the debt to stop.
