Chicago Sues Grubhub and DoorDash for Allegedly Scamming Basically Everyone: Restaurants, Drivers, and Customers

I would be willing to bet that Chicago is suing Grubhub and DoorDash for scamming not for “allegedly scamming”. The use of the extra adjective is a strategy for avoiding libel suits but I don’t see the vulnerability here. Chicago is either suing them or not and if they are suing they’re are suing them for doing something.

    We have at least two generations of functionally illiterate and innumerate public school teachers. Illiteracy and innumeracy have even spread into the junior faculty ranks of our colleges.

    And STEM is not far behind. The biological, medical, and environmental sciences are already politicized, woke, and unreliable. In part, this is because they are feminized. We are practically a matriarchy.
