President Donald Trump unveiled an $11 billion bailout earlier this week. The aid package might not be enough to make up for farming losses.

I can't be the only one who gets annoyed when people say "verbal" when they mean "oral."

Why are so many people so afraid to say "oral"?

We're all okay saying "oral surgeon" or the brand "oral B"?

1. Paramount's hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros. Discovery exposes Jared Kushner's game

Kushner is not running a private equity fund. He's running an influence peddling operation.

It's spelled out on page 42 of Paramount's new SEC filing

New research found that Instacart is charging shoppers different prices — despite ordering the same items from the same store at the same time.

The price differences could amount to an extra $1,200 a year for the average household of four.

Corporate greed is out of control.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.

Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

Corruption on display.

A review of court records shows the alleged fraud uncovered to date is closer to $152 million, though that number is expected to grow as ongoing state and federal investigations into the state programs continue.
Trump claims Minnesota lost billions to fraud. The evidence to date isn’t close.
The fraud allegations have been used as a justification for federal immigration enforcement against Minnesota’s Somali population.
