An enterprising reporter could make a living just covering lawsuits against Elon Musk. More than 80 new cases this year. Most look like appeals or random BS, but there are enough big, interesting cases in there to keep someone very busy.

Here, you can learn about why Magazuela supported Trump even as he promised to go after "undocumented" immigrants. People seriously thought that having TPS meant they were documented, that they were not in the firing line.

It reveals why the Democrats' ridiculous idea of only fighting the economic measures is misguided. What ever happened to "defend democracy"?
What it makes me think is that Trump will be left to do autocratic stuff as long as it is pro gro…
Listening to Kim Lane Chappelle on the Amicus podcast with Dahlia Lithwick. She is pulling Trump's recent actions into perspective very well.
Shows the real threat. It's not about cancelling the next election or putting thanks on the stre…
Trump: "Today I'm also signing an executive order to instruct the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security to begin preparing the 30,000 person migrant facility at Guantanamo Bay. Most people don't even know about it."

About
US-based investigative financial reporter. I write about corporate and sovereign debt in Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and Chile at REDD Latin America.
Expect posts about Latin American finance, energy, climate.
I complain about New York City and post bad jokes at @stevenbodzin
Posts are mine, and while I try not to embarrass my employer, REDD has nothing to do with anything I write here.
