Ezra Klein had a hilariously bad 2025: started with that embarrassing Abundance book, declared Marie Concentrationcamp Perez the future of the Dem party, wrote that Charlie Kirk was doing the politics the right way, and argued that Epstein kept his pedophilia separate from his business life.

My pay as a TX teacher with a masters was $50k. I was in one of the highest paying districts in the state. I couldn't afford to rent my own place.

The highest I could ever make was $70k.

After 30 years of teaching + multiple certifications, of course.
