All of their troubles started just weeks after I left. Clearly I was the only thing keeping them together.
UNH is "complying with formal criminal and civil requests" from DOJ after media reports of investigations related to the company's Medicare program. Nothing revelatory but wow do the hits ever keep coming for the managed care industry.

So just to recap, the Transportation Secretary is scared shitless of public transport. The Education Secretary is being sued for enabling child sex abuse. The Health Secretary is bringing back measles. And the Defense Secretary is texting classified war plans to the editor in chief of the Atlantic
That would be Secretary of Education Linda McMahon who's being sued for aiding and abetting systemic child molestation, just to be clear
Amended complaint has been filed in the ring boys sexual abuse lawsuit against WWE, TKO, Vince McMahon, and Linda McMahon. Three new plaintiffs have joined the original five, one of which accuses Pat Patterson of also participating in the abuse.

Or less because the whole watch market crashes?
