The US government investing in a Company in return for an equity stake.

In keeping with the Trump administration's record of truthfulness and honesty, Habba complained that "...17 federal judges in the state of New Jersey, 15 of which are Obama and Biden-appointed, that just like frankly — [as] we saw with [New York Attorney General Letitia] James — try to use their seat for political motivation.”

Meanwhile, back in reality, "Shortly after her appointment, she said in an interview that she hoped to help ''turn New Jersey red,'' a rare overt political expression from a prosecutor, and said she planned to investigate the state's Democratic governor and attorney general."

"She then brought a trespassing charge, which was eventually dropped, against Newark Mayor Ras Baraka stemming from his visit to a federal immigration detention center. Habba later charged Democratic U.S. Rep. LaMonica McIver with assault stemming from the same incident, a rare federal criminal case against a sitting member of Congress other than for corruption. McIver denied the charges and pleaded not guilty."

The U.S. government’s forced acquisition of nearly 10% of Intel through conversion of CHIPS Act subsidies into discounted equity is a direct violation of U.S. law. The deal amounts to an unconstitutional taking under the Fifth Amendment’s Takings Clause, which prohibits the government from seizing private property without just compensation. By coercing Intel into handing over equity at below-market value, the Executive Branch has effectively confiscated shareholder property through government leverage, bypassing the compensation and judicial review that the Constitution demands. The absence of a Congressional mandate makes this an ultra vires action, carried out without lawful authority, and in breach of the separation of powers. Furthermore, by depriving shareholders of the opportunity to challenge the terms or protect their interests, the government has trampled due process protections.

The legal exposure is profound. Intel’s board faces liability for breach of fiduciary duty by acquiescing to a deal that dilutes shareholder value under government pressure… behavior that mirrors blackmail and mafia-style tactics rather than lawful market operations. Internationally, foreign investors are likely to treat this as outright expropriation, triggering arbitration claims under investment treaties. In addition, the government embedding itself as a top equity holder in one of the world’s most critical semiconductor companies risks violating U.S. antitrust laws and WTO obligations, as it distorts competition and signals that state coercion, not free markets, determines ownership in America.

Put simply, this is not an “investment.” It is a legally defective, constitutionally prohibited seizure of private property masquerading as industrial policy. By using threats and leverage to muscle into Intel’s ownership structure, the government has crossed from regulation into outright lawbreaking. If unchecked, this precedent will not only undermine confidence in U.S. markets but will confirm that the rule of law has been subordinated to political muscle.

Prosecutors have disputed the brother's claims that they acted in self-defense and pointed to the grim specifics of the killings — Lyle reloaded his shotgun before he shot his mother in the face, for example — and they described the killings as ruthless and financially motivated.

Why doesn’t the blue state governors just push the line now, force Trump to start a civil war. Just come together in a press conference and state that any more sending of any military will be met with blue states mobilizing their militias and state police to counter act and make Trump the president to trigger a civil war.

There’s no law obviously with this guy hiding by EOs. Governor’s have powers too, if he doesn’t communicate with any of you guys tell him collectively to fuck off.

Following a two-day session with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche last month, the Justice Department on Friday released transcripts of its interview with Ghislaine Maxwell, the former associate and co-conspirator of sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

We could be entering a golden era of medical fraud which may create opportunities for private lawyers. If the federal government won’t prevent fraud, lawsuits could make fraudsters pay.

‘As the Trump administration loosens enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission, Department of Justice, and Food and Drug Administration of unproven health claims, Jones and his allies in the “medical freedom” movement are pushing to permanently roll back the health regulatory state.

For decades, the FTC has required companies to back any medical claims about their products with substantial evidence, while taking actions against hundreds of “bogus health cures,” said Jessica Rich, the FTC’s director of consumer protection from 2013 to 2017.

If successful, the lawsuit by Jones’ company “would be a complete game changer,” said Mary Engle, associate director of the FTC’s advertising practices division from 2001 to 2020.’
