Read previewAll couples, whether they're thinking of marriage or already wed, want a union that lasts. But based on his experience, Sexton shared some of the things he recommends couples try before diving into an expensive divorce process. One person might feel like their partner isn't doing enough to make them feel loved, so they refuse to do anything to make their partner feel loved, either. In his experience with couples who divorce over infidelity, he's noticed a pattern with some couples: "The deception is happening because every time that there's an honest sharing, it results in attacking." AdvertisementOn the other side of the coin, couples might have overly negative views of marriage based on old stereotypes.

Rep.

Gaetz, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, made the statement in an angry letter to the Ethics Committee that declared he will "no longer voluntarily participate" in the panel's probe. Gaetz said he understands that a subpoena has been "issued, but not served" — but did not say whether he would comply with the subpoena. An Ethics Committee spokesman declined to comment on the letter. Gaetz reportedly helped Trump prepare for his Sept. 10 presidential debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday again confirmed that she once worked at McDonald's, pushing back against former President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly claimed she never worked there. "Part of the reason I even talk about having worked at McDonald's is because there are people who work at McDonald's in our country who are trying to raise a family," she said. A spokesperson for the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Harris' remarks. Trump has also insisted that Harris' anecdote about having worked at the fast-food chain is a "fake story." During Wednesday's interview, Harris said: "My mother raised my sister and me.
