What happens when you eat cheese (your stomach does something most people aren't aware of)

โ€œCheese offers an impressive nutritional package. However, itโ€™s the combination of these nutrients working together in what we call the โ€˜dairy matrixโ€™ that creates effects we couldnโ€™t predict by looking at individual nutrients alone.โ€

Trump just shut down the DOJ's unit that investigates crypto fraud.

Remember: Trump and his inner circle stand to profit from their crypto investments and a proposed national crypto reserve โ€” while taxpayers could be left holding the bag.

It's a new Golden Age for corruption.
