The Ballroom/No tax on tips, the Bohemian Grove, and aww, King Charles
These topics have no direct correlation, but each deserves its own measure of attention.

As a leader, nature lover, and conservationist, Charles remarked: “Even as we celebrate the beauty that surrounds us, our generation must decide how to address the collapse of critical natural systems, which threatens far more than the harmony and essential diversity of nature," he said. "We ignore at our peril the fact that these natural systems – in other words, nature’s own economy – provide the foundation for our prosperity and our national security.
