China restricting exports of rare earths is the thing that’s going to cause Trump to cave on China while declaring victory.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Plaintiffs, who have easily established their standing to bring this case and irreparable harm, have shown they are likely to prove the Termination and Enforcement Threat Provisions are unconstitutionally vague on their face.
But it is not just the vagueness of the Challenged Provisions that renders them
unconstitutional. There is a label for government action that seeks to "deter ... principles," J21 Order Β§ 4(b)(iii), that the government disagrees with: "restrictlion]" of
"expression because of its message, its ideas, its subject matter, or its content." Reed v.
Town of Gilbert, 576 U.S. 155, 163 (2015). And the most "blatant" and "egregious form of content discrimination" is viewpoint discrimination. Id. at 168-69. The Certification and Enforcement Threat Provisions squarely, unconstitutionally, "abridgel] the freedom of speech." U.S. Const. amend. I.

Pulling out the same type of device on a traffic stop that was used to beat police officers on Jan 6 is probably not the best plan.

Extract from WSJ story.
A lawyer at advertising conglomerate Interpublic Group fielded a phone call in December from a lawyer at X. The message was clear, according to several people with knowledge of the conversation: Get your clients to spend more on Elon Musk's social-media platform, or else.
X CEO Linda Yaccarino has made comments that seemed like similar warnings in conversations with Interpublic executives, according to people with knowledge of those talks.
Interpublic leaders interpreted the communications from X as reminders that the recently announced $13 billion deal to merge Interpublic with rival Omnicom Group OMC -0.53% could be torpedoed, or at least slowed down, by the Trump administration, given Musk's powerful role in the federal government, some of the people said. They also had a front-row seat to Musk's continued criticism of advertisers that ditched X since he bought it in 2022, when it was known as Twitter.

Extraordinary story the Wall Street Journal.

X is threatening advertisers that if they don’t spend more, Elon Musk will use his influence in government to block company mergers.

That’s extortion.
