Have a nice day and I hope you get the help you need.

The main consumer protection rule about so-called “junk fees” was just blocked by a federal court. DOJ blocking the Spirit-JetBlue merger may lead both companies to exit, reducing competition. It may turn out to be the single worst airline policy decision in decades and was strongly endorsed by DOT.

I strongly opposed Buttigieg’s abuse of DOT’s nebulous unfair and deceptive practices authority and have for years advocated legislation to align Sec. 41712 with the FTC’s UDAP standards of proof. It’s a good example of why attacking “the corporations” isn’t pro-consumer.

Best prepare for the inevitable security state overreaction these dopes are cheering on.

Thanks. It’s great to see they have those here too.
