📹: Drake spent $1mln in a Houston strip club a day after his performance with Travis Scott at the Astroworld festival resulted in a deadly stampede, claims musician DJ Akademiks.
He posted a video from Area 29, showing the club's floor covered with money and women, presumably strippers, counting money.
A man can be heard shouting "say thanks Drake". "Thanks Drake", the women reply.
DJ Akademiks' claims appear to have been corroborated by the club itself. In a since-deleted post, Area 29 thanked @champagnepappi (Drake's Instagram account) for the visit.

❗️📃 Five GOP senators have issued a warning that they will refuse to back any omnibus spending bill that does not include adequate funding for border security, and specifically for the construction of a wall on the border with Mexico.
Republican lawmakers Mike Braun, Marco Rubio, Mike Lee, Cynthia Lummis, and Ted Cruz argued in an open letter, obtained by Fox News ahead of its release, that such funding is crucial for curbing illegal immigration into the US, which has exceeded 1.7 million encounters in 2021.

Pop goes the BBB: Donald Trump's economic adviser, Stephen Moore, believes that the highest inflation rate in three decades will help to kill US President Joe Biden’s $1.75 trillion Build Back Better (BBB) act.
🗣 Moore proclaimed that “inflation is resonating with the people” and mused that there is a “50-50 chance” that the bill will be stopped.
Moore has also said that "our strategy has been delay, delay, delay," in trying to combat the passage of the bill, adding that measures such as the BBB's child tax credit could prompt the loss of anywhere between six and eight million workers.
