I like even less how they use slander lawsuit settlements to achieve bribes. I imagine it would be hard for anyone else who would have to counter evidence that they raped their ex-wife to sue people because more recent sex crimes were not rapes.
I can't imagine someone as rich as Bezos doesn't have expensive advisors who have told him the patterns suggest that his best move for his businesses is to at least fake that he can get in a testosterone war with Trump through his paper.. So the likely explanations for why he hasn't that I can think of are not kind.

Sounds like airline bills.. I don't really see how that has worked out for them.

#6It's wild - tariffs meant to shield U.S. interests end up giving Apple and Foxconn headaches, shifting their entire strategy. Reminds me of closing one door only to notice everyone's sneaking in through the window. Protectionism might feel good, but tech always finds another route around.

I’m skeptical the tariffs were mean to shield US interests rather than just being intended to do exactly what they’re achieving: isolating the US by driving investment and allies away, while contributing to a recession where oligarchs can further consolidate power and wealth.
If you look at them as an attack on the US, everything makes a lot more sense.
