The Supreme Court is gearing up for one of its most consequential cases involving Donald Trump, and the timeline is moving at breakneck speed. Just over a month ago, on September 4th, Trump's legal team filed a petition asking the nation's highest court to review a decision from the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. The case, officially titled Donald J. Trump, President of the United States versus V.O.S. Selections, Incorporated, represents a fascinating legal battleground that's captured national attention.What makes this case particularly striking is how quickly the Supreme Court acted. Within days of the petition being filed, Trump's attorneys submitted a motion asking the Court to expedite everything - the review process, briefing schedules, and oral arguments. This wasn't just any routine request; it was a clear signal that the stakes were extraordinarily high.The Court's response was swift and decisive. On September 9th, the justices granted both the motion to expedite and the petition for review. But here's where things get really interesting - they also consolidated this case with another Trump-related matter, case number 24-1287, creating a legal showdown that would receive a full hour of oral argument time.The briefing schedule reads like a legal sprint. Opening briefs were due by September 19th, with amicus briefs following by September 23rd. Response briefs had to be filed by October 20th, and reply briefs are due by October 30th. That's an incredibly compressed timeline for a Supreme Court case, especially one involving a sitting president.Mark your calendars, because oral arguments are scheduled for Wednesday, November 5th - Election Day 2025. The timing couldn't be more dramatic or consequential. While the specific details of what V.O.S. Selections does or what the underlying dispute involves remain somewhat opaque from the public docket, the urgency suggests this case touches on fundamental questions of presidential power and authority.The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals issued its decision on August 29th, and within a week, Trump's team was at the Supreme Court's doorstep. That kind of rapid-fire legal maneuvering typically indicates that constitutional principles or significant government powers are at stake.What's particularly noteworthy is how the Court handled the consolidation. They've essentially created a single, comprehensive review of related Trump administration legal challenges, streamlining what could have been separate, drawn-out proceedings into one decisive moment.The Supreme Court has been dealing with Trump-related cases throughout the Roberts Court era, but this particular combination of expedited review, consolidated proceedings, and Election Day oral arguments creates a perfect storm of legal and political significance.As we watch this unfold over the coming weeks, the implications will likely extend far beyond just this one case, potentially shaping presidential powers for future administrations.Thank you for tuning in to today's legal update. Make sure to come back next week for more developments as this historic case moves toward oral arguments. This has been a Quiet Please production.

Strategic licensing has been a major growth unlock for MyProtein, but hints of an upcoming partnership could take “the world's largest online sports nutrition brand” to a whole other level! THG (aka the company formerly known as The Hut Group) recently updated the public markets by releasing its 2025 H1 interim results. I'll be utilizing that financial information, along with notes I took listening to the earnings conference call, and any relevant publicly disclosed information to obviously update you on the recent performance of THG Nutrition division, which includes the world's largest online sports nutrition brand MyProtein, but also utilize everything as the contextual backdrop for my expanded strategic commentary around global sports nutrition market dynamics and trends. Additionally, for those unfamiliar with the up-to-date THG portfolio configuration…due to the THG Ingenuity demerger action occurring at the end of 2024, it now would be described as a global, cash generative, health and wellness consumer brands group. During the first half of 2025, THG Nutrition revenue was approximately $409 million, which increased 3.1% YoY. And while those aren't necessarily blowout caliber results…THG leadership noted the second quarter had the strongest growth since the first quarter of 2022. Moreover, momentum was said to be broad-based across categories outside of the core protein range, especially in activewear, vitamins, bars, and snacks. But I'll dive into several strategic decisions impacting MyProtein including its global digital sales channel strategy, offline retail expansion efforts, product licensing strategy, and let's just say A LOT is riding on the success of the MyProtein global rebrand. But basically two years after the start of its initial staggered market rollout, the transitionary impacts from the rebrand are now behind Myprotein. THG leadership reaffirmed that customer feedback continues to be promising, with unaided brand recognition for MyProtein now at its highest level to date. More importantly though…THG Nutrition leadership needs to continue paying close attention to key commercial metrics, as it seeks to continue moving upstream in positioning, thus unlocking sales channel diversification opportunities. THG must ensure the rebrand decision is well received by (and generates) brand affinity with those less price-sensitive customers. Additionally, THG leadership hinted at a two-way product partnership with a currently unnamed global confectionery leader launching in the fourth quarter (holiday period). Could it be Ferrero Group or even Mondelez International (after the licensing breakup with GHOST Lifestyle)? But I honestly think the biggest potential win-win partnership would be with Mars, Incorporated. Finally, after the first half of 2025 period ended, THG announced the sale of Claremont Ingredients to Nactarome Group. The flavor company has been a long-standing supplier to Europe's leading nutrition brands, and the deal represents a significant ROI for THG…selling Claremont Ingredients for more than double its initial acquisition price (less than five years later).

KISSEL, RUBIO, BATCHELOR The conversation between John Batchelor and colleague Mary Kissel, executive vice president of Stephens Incorporated and former senior advisor at the State Department, focuses on the quiet success of Marco Rubio as Secretary of State. Rubio is highly regarded and is very well liked across the aisle for several reasons. During his distinguished career in the Senate, he was viewed as a reasonable person who was very grounded and possessed clear principles, but who was still able to cooperate with Democrats to find common ground. In the current administration, he is seen as relatively more of a realist and a foreign policy hawk than others in powerful roles. Kissel highlights that Rubio has comported himself successfully at the State Department, establishing a stable and extremely careful administration. Notably, the administration has not seen the typical leaks of memos or complaints that the State Department bureaucracy often uses to undermine the executive floor (the seventh floor at Foggy Bottom). A specific success highlighted is the recovery of one of the hostages held by the Kabul government, the Taliban. The success of the Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs (SPEHA), who reports up to Rubio and the President, is emphasized, as protecting U.S. citizenry is considered the greatest role for the government. Finally, the President has shown significant confidence in Rubio by naming him National Security Advisorconcurrently with his role as Secretary of State.
