    Title is wrong, both here and on the site. It’s 250 million not billion.

    Million/billion, the interesting fact is the scale of corporate graft. Paying shareholder’s money to suck up to Trump is really disgusting and any system that allows it is deeply broken.

      Do you mean the shareholders are being paid or that the money belonging to them is being paid in order to suck up to the president
