The reason to require government approval of big mergers is to prevent market-distorting concentrations of corporate power that harm competition and consumers, not so the president can distort the market in favor of ideological allies and/or solicit a bribe for himself.

Of course criminal slumlord Jared Kushner is behind Paramount’s hostile $108B bid to acquire Warner Bros.
Faking a Middle East peace mission and illegally accepting $2B from Saudi Arabia in exchange for US intel wasn’t enough for this crook. They should’ve jailed him long ago.

New Home Office impact assessment finds that cutting skilled and social care visas will cost the UK up to £10 billion with a central estimate of -£5.4 billion.
It would be good if this got even a fraction of the coverage devoted to the endless debate about boats, flags and Turkish barber shops

The government says that billions in covid fraud is unretrievable, but never seem to say the same about benefit fraud. Instead they make people who sometimes have made an innocent mistake pay back every penny despite the hardship it causes. Could it be because big fraud is perpetrated by the rich?

The Palestine hunger strikers in jail are moving into the period where irreversible damage can be done and death becomes a real danger.
I had not understood how serious the situation is.
None of them are convicted, and there is no need to keep them in jail at all.

Trumpiggy admitted he wanted a political payoff after a pardon of a Texas Democrat. That's a felony quid pro quo whether he actually received it or not. He should be impeached for it.

russia attacks ukraine every day with drones and missiles mostly at civilians. They're burning medical supplies, stealing food, cutting off electricity heating and water. Abducting children to turn them on their country.
Their genocide couldn't be more obvious.

ICE is out of control. They're operating with impunity. They're doing things and getting away with stuff that regular cops, even your typical federal agents, can't do.
And we're just sitting back and taking it all in why?
