In this special episode, former FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter and former U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai talk to Teddy and former Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter to discuss the recent upheaval at the FTC and its implications for market stability, antitrust enforcement, and the rule of law. Slaughter describes being abruptly fired from her FTC position, highlighting that this dismissal violates legal protections that prohibit FTC commissioners' removal without cause. She emphasizes that this unprecedented action introduces significant legal uncertainty, potentially undermining ongoing critical FTC cases, such as the lawsuit against pharmaceutical benefit managers accused of inflating insulin prices, and cases involving major corporations like Amazon. This instability challenges market predictability and may affect the enforcement of antitrust laws, consumer protection, and market fairness.Ambassador Tai reflects on the global perception of U.S. trade policy, particularly during the Trump administration, and stresses the importance of consistent policies for international trust and stability. Tai explains the complexity surrounding tariffs, underscoring the risks associated with unpredictability and disruptions in trade relationships with key partners like the EU, Canada, and Mexico. She points out that inconsistent U.S. actions erode its reputation as a reliable trading partner, thus pushing other nations to depend more heavily on China or each other.Both express concern over current policy chaos in Washington, implications for the rule of law, and democratic stability. They highlight that market actors like Wall Street typically prefer predictability and clear rules, now compromised by this governmental instability. We end with worries that politically driven decisions—such as Slaughter's firing—provide advantages to large corporations, including Big Tech, undermining fair competition and accountability.

Ever since Temu's viral marketing ad in the Superbowl, they've grown to become one of the biggest competitors to Amazon.  But how is Temu able to offer lower prices compared to sites like Amazon and even eBay? It has something to do with its business model and the fact that it lacks a few key features of other e-commerce sites. But is there more to it? In this episode, we'll talk about how Temu has disrupted the e-commerce space, how Temu keeps its products cheap, and how they cut costs.  The Big Takeaways of Today's Episode Temu has disrupted Amazon's dominance in the North American e-commerce market. Temu is able to offer fast shipping times because of their logistics model that mirrors Amazon's FBA. The Chinese government may be indirectly supporting Temu's growth by heavily supporting exports.

Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with distinguished guest Ambassador Peter Hoekstra. The conversation focuses on key issues affecting American families and communities as the country continues to experience persistent higher prices for food and gas. A published report by The Wall Street Journal said, "Yet since January 2021 electricity prices have soared 29.4%—about 50% more than overall inflation." The Wall Street Journal in a report on July 3, 2024 stated, "The Fed raised rates at the fastest pace in 40 years in 2022 and 2023 to combat inflation that also rose to a four-decade high. They have held their benchmark rate in a range between 5.25% and 5.5% since last July." This discussion on America's Roundtable also provides an update on foreign policy issues impacting America. The conflict in Europe triggered by Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Iran-backed terror group Hamas' invasion of Israel on October 7, 2023 and Iran's first-ever open attack on Israel on April 13, 2024, have shown cracks in America's leadership on the global stage.

During his tenure, The Hague hosted the Department of State Global Entrepreneurial Summit in June of 2019, which was attended by over 2000 entrepreneurs, investors, and other business leaders.
