Discovery (WBD) making it abundantly clear that the venture’s reported four-year budget of $1 billion was not worth the cost. So… Source link

President Biden and the Democratic Party face no shortage of challenges heading into the 2022 midterm elections. But inflation is by far the most formidable — and now, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll, Americans say that Republicans (31%) rather than Democrats (26%) can do a better job of “fixing” it.
