When I was a book reviews editor for a journal, I would get dozens of early MA students sending me their review assignments.

Absolutely normal. Entrepreneurial even. We used to use pillow cases because they could hold a lot of weight and then run home, empty, and go again. I did it 3 or 4 times every year back in the 70s. Good times

So 3 of those requests are reducing costs by 100%, 200%, and 300%. What is the 4th one? Sigh. The layers of corruption across the board are so hard to keep up with.

Any thoughts on how the PO of TUS is being propagandized by his handlers? This maybe gives a hint. Because if you think he is doing this by himself, there is no way.

Not sure, but I think Canada should thank those journalists for taking heat off of Carney. Carney is clearly uncomfortable sitting there, likely because he knows what the answer ought to be without having to ask Democrats. Sigh.
