For the record, trillions were lost, panic gripped Wall Street., Main Street and the globe and all we got were phone calls. And we’re left with high tariffs that are still forecast to reduce growth and boost inflation. Doesn’t seem much like victory to me.

that sound you hear is DraftKings and FanDuel sending as many signup promo codes as they can to the Department of Justice’s lawyers
DOJ just argued in the MSPB/NLRB case that they have a strong likelihood of success because 'if we have a 40% chance of success on two separate issues, that combines to a 65% chance of success on the merits.' What an absurd argument.
