Last week, it appeared the US Department of Justice was off to a strong start in its antitrust case against Live Nation Ticketmaster. Then, this week, the two sides surprised everyone by settling. The Verge's Lauren Feiner joins the show to explain the stakes of the case, the facts of the settlement, and why things aren't entirely over just yet. Then, The Verge's Hayden Field catches us up on what's happening between Anthropic, OpenAI, and the Department of Defense. OpenAI got the contract, but it looks like Anthropic might be the real winner here. If the company's business can survive, that is. Finally, David answers a question on the Vergecast Hotline (call 866-VERGE11 or email vergecast@theverge.com!) about whether you should get a foldable phone. And why foldable phones even exist.

DOCKET ALERTS:War Powers Resolution fails in both Houses of Congress.DHS is ramping up for an immigration surge in Maryland and has purchased an 825,000-square-foot warehouse in Hagerstown. The state is suing to block the facility on environmental grounds. In Baltimore, Judge Julie Rubin joins judges in New York and Los Angeles in holding that ICE is systematically violating the Fifth Amendment rights of immigrants in “temporary” detention by holding them for days on end without hygiene, medical care, or access to counsel.Kalshi customers have filed a class action suit over the company's refusal to pay out on bets — oops, we mean CONTRACT SWAPS — that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would leave office as Supreme Leader of Iran before March 1.Trump continues to defy the Constitution's requirement that he get Senate approval for principal officers. We discussed it in our post on Judge Lamberth holding that Kari Lake was never legally serving as head of the US Agency for Global Media, and thus her directives are null and void. And Judge Matthew Brann has ruled once again that Attorney General Pam Bondi can't evade senate confirmation for the US Attorney in New Jersey — no, not even if she spreads the appointment out among three lawyers, not just one. And we'll talk about the Trump administration's humiliating U-turn as it tries to un-dismiss the appeal in the case of the executive orders targeting law firms, as well as Anthropic's complaint against the government. Turns out, defying Trump can be good for business!Subscriber Bonus: The Trump administration just dismissed the antitrust suit against Live Nation mid-trial for, uh, reasons.

The U.S. is a global leader in technology and innovation. That didn't happen by chance. It happened because our economic institutions have historically emphasized decentralized decision-making, strong property rights, capital formation, and competition on the merits.In recent years, antitrust enforcement has drifted away from economics and toward structural and precautionary theories that treat scale, integration, and market success as presumptive harms. Some of this shift mirrors Europe's regulatory approach, and troublingly, the impulse to move in this direction is becoming bipartisan. The danger is that we abandon evidence-based competition policy, raise error costs, chill investment, and weaken long-run growth—at the very moment American firms are competing most intensely with China.In This Week's Economy, I explain how we got here, what's at stake for America's leading tech firms, and what policymakers should do to ensure we defend competition without undermining the innovation that keeps America ahead.

【聊了什么】 特朗普是MAGA，但MAGA远不只是特朗普。过去几个月，美国右翼内部裂痕频现：Marjorie Taylor Greene首次把"忠于特朗普"和"忠于America First"公开对立，Charlie Kirk被刺杀后右翼围绕以色列和反犹问题爆发内战，移民执法和关税政策上共和党内部也出现了罕见的倒戈。这些裂痕不是偶然的——它们背后是不同的知识分子网络、不同的意识形态框架、不同的对"美国应该是什么"的根本想象之间的深层冲突。 本期节目，我们从里根时代"三角凳"联盟的瓦解讲起，系统梳理MAGA新右翼的思想源流与内部派系：从法国新右翼到美国另类右翼，从克莱蒙特学派的民选问责主义到后自由主义者的共同善宪法主义，从Curtis Yarvin的"大教堂"理论到硅谷科技右翼的技术君主制野心。这些派别在"拆掉旧制度"上高度一致，但在拆完之后要建什么，却有着根本性的分歧。 我们也聊了特朗普在这个思想版图中的独特位置：一个几乎没有意识形态的交易型政治动物，却被一群有深厚理论野心的知识分子当作进入权力的特洛伊木马。以及万斯——这个最被看好的后特朗普时代旗手，他的后自由主义信仰、科技右翼资金网络、对美国身份认同的重新定义，和他致命的克里斯玛赤字。当特朗普离开舞台中心，这些还没完全搭好的脚手架还能撑多久？ 【支持我们】 如果喜欢这期节目并希望支持我们将节目继续做下去： 也欢迎加入我们的会员计划： https://theamericanroulette.com/paid-membership/ 会员可以收到每周2-5封newsletter，可以加入会员社群，参加会员活动，并享受更多福利。 合作投稿邮箱：american.roulette.pod@gmail.com 【时间轴】 01:03 开场介绍与嘉宾定义"新右翼" 04:26 欧洲源流：法国新右翼五大主张与"大置换"理论 07:41 MAGA内战近况：MTG叛旗、Charlie Kirk之死、关税倒戈 09:57 里根"三角凳"：旧保守主义联盟的搭建与崩塌 14:53 共和党南方化与文化战争的全面溃败感 17:56 The Flight 93 Election：生死危机叙事的诞生 22:59 右翼葛兰西主义与Curtis Yarvin的"大教堂"理论 30:51 特朗普本人没有意识形态——他只是新右翼的特洛伊木马 34:11 Barstool Conservative：虎扑老哥式MAGA选民与激进化管道 37:38 新右翼门派总览：克莱蒙特学派 vs 后自由主义者 41:15 JD万斯：后自由主义旗手与2028接班人难题 45:15 行政国家之争：拆掉还是接管？右翼内部的路线分歧 52:22 美国人到底是谁？独立宣言主义 vs 血统民族主义 60:38 反垄断翻车与交易型政治：意识形态败给利益交换 66:38 新右翼有思想没魅力，找不到第二个特朗普 【我们是谁】 美轮美换是一档深入探讨当今美国政治的中文播客。 我们的主播和嘉宾： Talich：美国政治和文化历史爱好者 王浩岚：美国政治爱好者，岚目公众号主笔兼消息二道贩子 小华：媒体人 小肖：纽约律师 王朝：《日新说》国际新闻主编，右翼思潮观察者 【 What We Talked About】 Trump is MAGA, but MAGA is far more than Trump. In recent months, fractures within the American right have burst into the open: Marjorie Taylor Greene publicly split loyalty to Trump from loyalty to America First for the first time; the assassination of Charlie Kirk triggered an internal war over Israel and antisemitism; and rare Republican defections emerged on immigration enforcement and tariff policy. These fractures are not accidental — they reflect deep conflicts between rival intellectual networks, competing ideological frameworks, and fundamentally different visions of what America should be. In this episode, we start with the collapse of the Reagan-era "three-legged stool" coalition and systematically trace the intellectual origins and internal factions of the MAGA New Right: from the French Nouvelle Droite to the American alt-right, from the Claremont school's democratic accountability doctrine to the post-liberals' Common Good Constitutionalism, from Curtis Yarvin's "Cathedral" theory to Silicon Valley's techno-monarchist ambitions. These factions are remarkably united on tearing down the old order — but deeply divided over what to build in its place. We also explore Trump's peculiar position in this intellectual landscape: a transactional political animal with virtually no ideology, yet embraced by theoretically ambitious intellectuals as a Trojan horse into power. And then there's Vance — the most credible standard-bearer for the post-Trump era, with his post-liberal convictions, tech-right funding network, redefinition of American identity, and his fatal charisma deficit. When Trump exits center stage, how long can this half-built scaffolding hold? 【Support Us】 If you like our show and want to support us, please consider the following: Join our membership program: https://theamericanroulette.com/paid-membership/ Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/americanroulette Business Inquiries and fan mail: american.roulette.pod@gmail.com 【Timeline】 01:03 Introduction & defining the "New Right" 04:26 European origins: the French Nouvelle Droite's five pillars and the "Great Replacement" theory 07:41 MAGA civil war update: MTG's break, Charlie Kirk's death, and tariff defections 09:57 Reagan's "three-legged stool": how the old conservative coalition was built — and why it collapsed 14:53 The GOP's Southernization and the sense of total defeat in the culture war 17:56 The Flight 93 Election: the birth of existential crisis politics 22:59 Right-wing Gramscianism and Curtis Yarvin's "Cathedral" theory 30:51 Trump has no ideology — he's the New Right's Trojan horse 34:11 Barstool Conservatives: the low-ideology MAGA base and the radicalization pipeline 37:38 New Right faction overview: the Claremont school vs. the post-liberals 41:15 JD Vance: post-liberal standard-bearer and the 2028 succession problem 45:15 The administrative state debate: dismantle or capture?

Kenneth Leon and David Clement discuss Live Nation (LYV) after the company posted earnings and said they're eyeing a record year. However, it still faces antitrust lawsuits from the U.S. government. Kenneth notes that it works in live events, which is seeing strength, but it is also a seasonal company, which puts scrutiny on its deferred revenue stream. David sees suggestions of post-pandemic normalization, but is concerned about the lawsuits.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

DOJ's first antitrust whistleblower reward signals a more aggressive approach to rooting out market‑allocation and procurement‑related fraud, especially in digital marketplaces. With employees now financially incentivized to report before companies self‑disclose, the competitive landscape for leniency has shifted.

If we want to understand why capitalism feels broken, do we need to stop looking at the economy and start looking at the legal code that underpins it? In our system, capital is often described as money, machinery, or raw materials. But Columbia Law School professor Katharina Pistor argues that capital is actually a legal invention. An asset, whether it's a plot of land, an idea, or a promise of future pay, only becomes capital when it is given the right legal coding.  Pistor suggests that lawyers are the true coders of capitalism. They use the law to "enclose" assets, from land to user data, giving owners the power to exclude others and monetize that value. She argues for injecting principles of "fairness and reciprocity" back into private law, ensuring that contracts aren't just tools for the powerful to extract value from the weak. Luigi Zingales suggests that large corporations have become so powerful we may need a new branch of "quasi-public law" to govern the asymmetry between an individual consumer and a corporate giant. This episode explores the deep, often invisible architecture of our economic system and asks whether we can ever truly tame corporate power without rewriting the rules of the game.

Chuck Eesley, a professor of management science and engineering, studies entrepreneurship across diverse contexts – from refugee entrepreneurs in Uganda to semiconductor startups navigating U.S.-China economic policy. His research on recent export controls revealed a counterintuitive outcome: Rather than solely strengthening U.S. semiconductor innovation, these policies accelerated Chinese investment in its own domestic chip industry, boosting startups there as much as – or more than – here. This finding underscores how global technology markets are deeply interconnected: Barriers can produce unintended consequences that accelerate innovation abroad rather than protecting it at home. Open technology trade and investment create larger markets for American innovations, strengthen collaborative partnerships, and demonstrate that interconnected markets drive progress for all participants. “Entrepreneurial talent exists everywhere,” Eesley tells host Russ Altman on this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.Have a question for Russ?

In this episode, host Jeremy M. Evans explains how antitrust law has moved from the margins of sports law to the center of power—reshaping athlete leverage, league governance, and the business of sports. Jeremy examines how recent legal developments, including NIL reform and athlete-driven litigation, are challenging long-standing assumptions about competitive balance and economic control in both professional and collegiate sports. The episode breaks down why antitrust law has increasingly filled gaps left by fragmented labor and governance systems, and how athletes are emerging as meaningful market participants rather than passive stakeholders. Looking ahead, Jeremy discusses what these legal shifts mean for the future of league structure, media rights, and athlete organization—and why antitrust principles will continue to shape the next era of sports. This episode is essential listening for lawyers, executives, athletes, and anyone interested in the evolving intersection of sports, media, and labor law. (Season 8, Episode 5). Copyright 2026.

Tuesday February 3, 2026 First Ever Whistleblower Reward for Reporting Antitrust Crimes

This Day in Legal History: BlockburgerOn February 4, 1932, the United States Supreme Court decided Blockburger v. United States, 284 U.S. 299 (1932), a case that established an enduring rule in American criminal law known as the Blockburger test. This test is used to determine whether two offenses are sufficiently distinct to permit multiple punishments or prosecutions under the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment.In the case, the defendant was charged with multiple violations of the Harrison Narcotics Act for selling morphine on different occasions. The legal question was whether he could be prosecuted separately for each sale and for selling without proper prescription and for selling not in the original stamped package, even if these occurred during the same transaction.The Court held that each offense requires proof of a fact the other does not. If that's the case, then they are distinct for double jeopardy purposes. This became the “same elements” test, sometimes called the Blockburger test, and it remains a key tool for analyzing double jeopardy claims today.Notably, the test doesn't focus on whether the charges arise from the same conduct or transaction, but on whether each statutory provision requires proof of a fact which the other does not.This legal principle has been cited in thousands of cases, and it continues to shape how prosecutors and courts evaluate overlapping criminal charges.Ryan W. Routh, convicted of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump weeks before the 2024 presidential election, is scheduled for sentencing on Wednesday. Prosecutors are seeking a life sentence, citing months of planning, the use of disguises and multiple cellphones, and Routh's readiness to kill others to carry out the plot. He was arrested near Trump's West Palm Beach golf course in September 2024 after fleeing the scene and leaving behind a rifle and gear resembling body armor. At trial, Routh represented himself, making erratic statements and offering little in the way of a legal defense. He was convicted of five charges, including attempted assassination and illegal firearm possession. Routh claims he did not intend to kill Trump and has requested a 27-year sentence along with psychological treatment. The incident was the second assassination attempt on Trump during the campaign season. Prosecutors emphasized that Routh's actions could have succeeded had it not been for Secret Service intervention. Following the verdict, Routh attempted to stab himself with a pen in court and had to be restrained. Trump praised the conviction, calling Routh “an evil man with an evil intention.”Man convicted of attempting to assassinate Trump to be sentenced | ReutersNetflix Co-CEO Ted Sarandos faced sharp questioning from U.S. senators over the company's proposed $82.7 billion acquisition of Warner Bros Discovery, a deal that could reshape the streaming and entertainment landscape. At a Senate antitrust hearing led by Republican Mike Lee, lawmakers from both parties expressed concern that the merger could reduce competition, limit job opportunities for entertainment workers, and reduce content diversity. Lee warned the deal might let Netflix dominate streaming and steer major Warner Bros franchises away from theaters or rivals. Sarandos defended Netflix's position, citing competition from platforms like YouTube, though senators noted YouTube's ad-based model differs from subscription services.The Department of Justice is currently reviewing the merger alongside a competing bid from Paramount Skydance. Paramount's proposal faces financing challenges, and its CEO, David Ellison, has ties to Donald Trump, raising political questions. Democratic Senator Cory Booker questioned Sarandos on whether Trump would influence the deal's approval, a notion Sarandos said he couldn't confirm. Sarandos argued that all viewing time on television is in direct competition, but senators remained skeptical of Netflix's claims that its competition includes ad-supported platforms. The hearing reflects broader unease about consolidation in streaming, and the DOJ's decision will ultimately shape the industry's direction.Netflix co-CEO faces grilling by US Senate panel over Warner Bros deal | ReutersThe U.S. Department of Justice and a majority of state attorneys general are appealing a major antitrust ruling in the case against Google over its dominance in the online search market. Although a federal judge previously determined that Google held a monopoly, he declined to impose significant structural remedies, such as requiring Google to sell its Chrome browser or stop paying Apple to make Google the default search engine on Apple devices. The government's appeal is expected to target this leniency.Google is also appealing the ruling and has requested a delay in compliance with the judge's order to share certain data with competitors while the appeals process is ongoing. The case, originally filed in 2020, marks one of the most significant antitrust challenges against a tech company in decades. The court noted that newer players like OpenAI have recently emerged, potentially altering the competitive landscape.The ruling was widely viewed as a partial win for Google, frustrating regulators who had hoped for broader changes to curb the company's influence in digital advertising and search. The appeal signals continued government efforts to pursue more aggressive antitrust enforcement in the tech sector.US files appeal in Google search antitrust case | Reuters This is a public episode.

In 2006, various parties came together to form Brazil's Amazon Soy Moratorium in an effort to curb illegal deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest. Today, challenges regarding Brazil's Soy Moratorium continue to mount, with passionate advocacy from farmers, environmentalists, government agencies, and international organizations. What might seem a cut-and-dry conflict between free enterprise and environmental conservation becomes more complicated when we delve deeper. With an antitrust cartel investigation in limbo, a pseudo-private agreement to arguably higher deforestation standards than those instituted by the government, and international observers on the scene, including customers and climate activists, the facts surrounding Brazil's Soy Moratorium are ripe for unpacking. Our guest today is antitrust attorney Eduardo Frade, who joins Barry Nigro and Anora Wang to discuss Brazil's Soy Moratorium and the various antitrust and competition questions it raises.
