It's Friday and the weekend, starts here. We've been talking about this for awhile, but it looks like the president will be looking to "bailout" the farmers, again. This time, he has a sure fire way to fund this plan, just like the last time. We recommend this book if you're looking for insight into the relationship between The GOP and The Heartland. Oh and apparently we're giving $20 billion to another country, because the president likes them. We wish he liked us. If you want to get a bathroom remodel done, better hurry up, because of new tariffs, you have less than a week to afford it. We wrap things up with the story of an escalator, a Jesse and a whole heapin' helpin' of double standards.
