RENO, NV — After missing out on Black Friday shopping, local man Chris Rogers was forced to purchase a new television for the exact same price but without a "BLACK FRIDAY SALE" tag.

The cultural stereotype of a Catholic nun is often very uptight—as in unmercifully swatting a child’s knuckles with a ruler—but sometimes it’s more violent. Nuns plot murders.

This happened on the CBS crime drama/dramedy “Elsbeth” on Nov. 20. The main character, Elsbeth Tascioni, is a Chicago lawyer sent to New York City to enforce a federal consent decree with the New York Police Department. But every week, she’s solving murders while she floats around in flamboyant outfits and a collection of large handbags.

In this implausible episode, the Archdiocese of New York decided to sell a 200-year-old convent to a scandalous pop star named Alaia Jade so she can transform it into a recording studio. At the beginning, the soon-to-be-displaced nuns about are watching one of her music videos, where she writhes and crawls around dressed in slutty-nun garb in a church setting, licking a crucifix and singing, “Crucify me / You can vilify me / I spit your gospel out / And fill you full of doubt.”

This might be inspired by the pop star Sabrina Carpenter, who flounced about in a tiny black dress and a cross necklace inside a Catholic church in Brooklyn for her music video “Feather” two years ago. In that case, Carpenter’s lyrics had nothing to do with religion. She was just dropping her love interest like a feather.

But in that real-life scenario, it became wildly controversial that the church allowed this filming. That’s what makes this CBS plot so ridiculous. Can anyone really imagine the archbishop of New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, selling a historic convent to a scandalous musician and dumping the nuns out on the street? The New York press would have a series of field days.

Convents are typically owned by the religious order that operates them, not by the church itself. But this plot helped explain why the convent’s Mother Superior decided to kill the pop star and save the convent. In a conversation with Alaia, the nun suggested she climb up into their decrepit bell tower and view the sunset for inspiration. Once there, a nun was tricked into ringing the bell early, causing the singer to be knocked out of a very big window by a very big bell. It was so cartoonish you’d expect a splat like a Wile E. Coyote cartoon.

Once Elsbeth started circling the bell tower and figuring out how Mother Superior conspired in the dirty deed, the nun entered the confessional and told a priest who aspired to be bishop that she encouraged the pop star’s climb and it could cause “irreparable harm to the church.” The priest banned Elsbeth and the cops from the premises unless they had a search warrant. This makes both priests and nuns look very shady.

To throw off the odor of anti-Catholic bias, the rest of the nuns were all presented as wonderful, like they’d marched in from the set of “Sister Act.” Elsbeth not only solved the murder but saved the convent by engineering a designation of historic preservation. Couldn’t the church have figured that out before someone was murdered?

“Elsbeth” was created by Robert and Michelle King, best known for the CBS drama “The Good Wife.” They also made a Catholic-centered drama called “Evil” about exorcisms for CBS and Paramount Plus.

This episode wasn’t vicious, like the “Law & Order: SVU” episode in 2016 where the auxiliary bishop of New York was running a large sex trafficking ring with Catholic school girls. But it still exploited sacred spaces of Catholic life for its juicy murder plot—like a slutty pop star.

Rahm Emanuel wants to take leadership of the Democratic Party and capture its nomination for president in 2028.

He shares his thoughts in a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed. It’s the first time a Democrat has made me smile since President Bill Clinton announced in his 1996 State of the Union address that “The era of big government is over.”

Emanuel has a stellar political resume that includes senior adviser in the White House to Clinton, chief of staff to President Barack Obama, member of Congress, mayor of Chicago and ambassador to Japan.

He has a reputation for political astuteness, being a tough fighter and being the father of the oft-quoted, “You never want a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it’s an opportunity to do things that you think you could not do before.”

These instincts are raising his finely honed political antennae that his party has badly, and destructively, lost direction.

And here he could not be more right.

Emanuel seeks a “politics based on values.” Not a politics of “identity, grievance, or victimhood,” of “oppressors” and “oppressed.”

He says he is talking about values that say, “government’s proper role is to clear a path so those who put in the elbow grease can earn success.”

Hey, he is sounding like a Republican.

Emanuel should take cues from his former boss Clinton who, in 1992, announced his intention to “change welfare as we know it.”

“For too long our welfare system has undermined the values of family and work, instead of supporting them,” Clinton said in his 1996 State of the Union. And then, working with a Republican Congress, he signed historic welfare reform into law, replacing the disastrous Aid to Families with Dependent Children with Temporary Assistance for Needy Families. Work requirements were introduced and welfare rolls were dramatically reduced.

Clinton also urged, in that 1996 State of the Union, that “permanent deficit spending must come to an end,” and he was the last president to leave office with a budget surplus.

However, one reform to which Clinton aspired that sunk in the political swamp of his impeachment in the wake of the Monica Lewinsky scandal was reform of Social Security.

In December 1998, Clinton convened the first-ever White House Conference on Social Security.

Clinton wanted genuine reform that would fix a broken and flawed system. Among options that captured his attention was the reform done in Chile, in which a system much like ours was transformed to one of ownership and personal retirement accounts. The White House invited José Pinera, the architect of the Chilean reform, to come speak at the conference and share the success they had in Chile with this reform.

In his 1999 State of the Union, Clinton proposed creation of personal retirement accounts that individuals could seed with funds with a tax credit and then qualify for additional matching funds.

Emanuel says his party “needs an economic agenda rooted in American values.”

“Everyone should feel they have skin in this game and all citizens should feel they can contribute to the nation’s renewal,” he says.

Our existing Social Security is not viable in its current form. Cash flow from the system will be insufficient to meet obligations by 2034, just nine years from now, per the latest Trustees report.

Nothing can give every American more “skin in the game” than participating in ownership and growth of our nation’s economy.

Let every American invest rather than pay taxes. Let every American become an owner and share in the experience of capitalism and growth.

Let’s not let the crisis of our broken Social Security system go to waste.

Emanuel should pick up the ball from his former boss, Clinton.

Nothing could be greater for the American people than Democrats and Republicans competing to make every American an owner and a capitalist.
