President Trump kicked off his Wednesday morning tweets with a nod to Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, who Trump said "sounds like a really great guy;" called Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones "a winner" for seeing that his players stand for the flag; and said he thinks health care will eventually pass, just not this week.
The Justice Department announced charges of fraud and corruption this afternoon against ten people in connection with two wide-ranging but connected bribery schemes at top college basketball programs.
What happened: The first scheme included coaches at USC, Oklahoma State, Auburn, and Arizona allegedly taking bribes from financial advisors and managers to then direct their athletes to use the services of those consultants. The second involved Adidas executives funneling money — often hundreds of thousands of dollars — to basketball recruits and their families to play at two Adidas-sponsored schools, the University of Louisville and the University of Miami.
