The federal old-age programs, Social Security and Medicare, are going bust. The latest trustees reports show the Social Security trust fund running out of money in 10 years and the Medicare hospital insurance trust fund running out in 11. With federal debt growing even as a share of GDP, and interest on that debt rising, Congress has shown every indication of being willing to drive us off the cliff.

After much anticipation and after becoming one of Netflix’s most-watched series ever, Season two of “The Night Agent” is finally here. Despite its popularity, season one left more to be desired. With its mediocre plot and lackluster performances, the series emulated the popcorn flicks of recent days, an entertaining show lacking any specific artistic merit. Thankfully, Season two is a severe upgrade. Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso), who, after saving the President of the United States in season one, is finally a Night Agent. He and his new partner, Alice (Brittany Snow), trek through the streets of Thailand before it quickly…

Good morning! The Oscar nominations are officially in the books, and thanks to a very game Bowen Yang and Rachel Sennott doing the announcements, it seems the nominees even had their names pronounced correctly. As always, there were surprises both good and bad; that’s the way it goes when ten thousand people collectively vote based on their taste (or based on who they sipped champagne with at a campaign event). Some of the unfortunate omissions were known long in advance, as when Jon Batiste’s kinetic original score for “Saturday Night” didn’t even make the Shortlist last month. (Also pour one…
