Your standard run of the mill organized crime syndicate engaged in human and/or drug trafficking are having a hay-day also given how DOJ's fully focused on retribution against political opponents instead of building cases to indict and convict under RICO. We're just not hearing as much about it.

The one piece of staffing advice Obama gave Trump in the 2017 transition was to watch out for Mike Flynn. He wasn't trustworthy anymore.

The contractor should have known better also. Any building constructed between the early 1900s and 1980 likely needs asbestos and lead based paint abatement PRIOR to demolition.

Not quite. Our world domination goal is to transition every human into genderless "neuters" who will be unable to determine the original sex of any partner mate with. They will be forced to mate and give birth to blood babies that we use for transfusions so we can live forever.

Additionally, U.S. returns are dominated by 7 companies and an absurd amount of irrational exuberance among fund managers over their AI investments. I feel like we're nearing the end of a Jenga game.
