U.S. Officials Confirm Beef Packers Are Under Investigation U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins confirmed that the Justice Department is investigating U.S. beef packers for antitrust issues. In posts to X (formerly Twitter), both Trump administration cabinet members seconded the president's Friday TruthSocial post, which alleged beef packers are “driving up the price of Beef through Illicit Collusion, Price Fixing, and Price Manipulation.” Trump further alleged that “Majority Foreign Owned Meat Packers” were inflating food prices and jeopardizing “the security of our Nation's food supply.” The meat institute issued their statement on the beef processing sector DOJ investigation by saying despite high consumer prices for beef, beef packers have been losing money because the price of cattle is at record highs.  For more than a year, beef packers have been operating at a loss due to a tight cattle supply and strong demand.  The meat institute said the beef industry is heavily regulated, and market transactions are transparent. The government's own data from USDA confirms that the beef packing sector is experiencing catastrophic losses and experts predict this will continue into 2026. U.S. beef processors welcome a fact-based discussion about beef affordability and how best to meet the needs of American consumers, who are the industry's most important stakeholders.

This Day in Legal History: GDR EstablishedOn October 7, 1949, the German Democratic Republic (GDR), commonly known as East Germany, was officially established. This marked the formal division of Germany into two separate states after World War II. The creation of East Germany came in response to the formation of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) earlier that year, in May 1949. Backed by the Soviet Union, the GDR was a socialist state governed by the Socialist Unity Party (SED), and its formation signaled the deepening divide between the Eastern and Western blocs during the Cold War.East Germany's legal and political structure was heavily influenced by Soviet-style socialism, with a focus on state control over the economy and a one-party system that suppressed political opposition. The GDR also became notorious for its secret police, the Stasi, which played a significant role in monitoring and controlling the population. Over time, East Germany built the Berlin Wall in 1961, a physical symbol of the broader ideological and geopolitical divisions of the Cold War.The existence of two Germanys, one capitalist and the other socialist, persisted for 41 years until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, leading to German reunification in 1990. The legal creation of East Germany on this day stands as a key moment in the Cold War era, illustrating the legal and ideological rift that shaped post-war Europe.The U.S. Supreme Court begins its new term with a docket of significant cases, including disputes over guns, transgender rights, workplace discrimination, and online pornography. After a busy summer of emergency decisions, the Court's first case focuses on the Biden administration's appeal regarding "ghost guns," which can be purchased online and assembled without traceable serial numbers. Another key case involves Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who seeks a new trial amid questions about his conviction. Additional cases involve Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, workplace discrimination claims brought by "majority background" workers, and the authority of federal agencies like the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and FDA. The Court also faces potential involvement in election disputes surrounding the 2024 presidential race. Despite its heavy docket, the shadow of ethical controversies and a proposal for Supreme Court reforms loom over the term.Trump's Election Bid Is a Wild Card as Supreme Court Term OpensUS Supreme Court kicks off new term with important cases ahead | ReutersThe U.S. legal services sector added 1,600 jobs in September 2024, ending a four-month decline, according to the Labor Department. The legal job market's rebound mirrors broader U.S. job growth, with unemployment falling to 4.1%. Recruitment firms report steady demand for legal personnel, especially at large law firms, across various regions and practice areas. Legal sector employment had peaked at 1,190,300 jobs in February 2024.

The fast-food chain alleges that the suppliers colluded to fix and raise beef prices by reducing the supply of slaughter-ready cattle, which artificially elevated prices. The alleged conspiracy, which began in 2015, was aimed at recovering profit margins impacted by years of drought. McDonald's claims that the suppliers limited production by closing plants and restraining market supply. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment, damages three times the amount of losses sustained, and a permanent injunction to prevent future collusion. The U.S. Department of Justice had already investigated price-fixing in 2020, and testimonies from cattle ranchers have reportedly confirmed the conspiracy. During this period, the suppliers saw record profits, with JBS reporting a significant revenue increase between 2014 and 2021.McDonald's Says Tyson and Other Suppliers Fixed Beef Prices This is a public episode.

Bid rigging and price fixing are two insidious corporate crimes where companies conspire to manipulate competition and inflate prices, robbing governments, businesses, and consumers of billions. In bid rigging, conspirators secretly agree on who will win contracts, using tactics like cover bidding, bid rotation, and subcontracting to maintain the illusion of competition. Price fixing involves competitors agreeing to set artificially high prices for products or services, removing natural market forces. These practices are difficult to detect and prove, often uncovered by whistleblowers who risk their careers to expose the schemes. Despite legal battles and harsh penalties, bid rigging and price fixing remain prevalent, evolving with globalization and modern technology, leaving the public to pay the hidden costs.(commercial at 9:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The streets of San Francisco may be known for Dirty Harry, movie car chases, and the birth of the hippie movement, but they will no longer be associated with rental price-setting software. That's because the Golden Gate City is in line to be the first in the U.S. to ban the tech tools allegedly associated with landlord price fixing. The San Francisco Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an ordinance introduced by its supervisor and mayoral hopeful Aaron Peskin that bans landlords from using specific software and algorithms to set rents. The measure will still need to be approved by the mayor next month before it can be enforced.

On this edition of Parallax Views, we delve into the explosive story of a software company and corporate landlords accused of engaging in a criminal conspiracy to artificially jack-up prices in the U.S. rental housing market. Lee Hepner of the American Economic Liberties Project joins the show to discuss the scandal-plagued software company RealPage and algorithmic price-fixing in the U.S. rental housing market as well as what was recently described in The Atlantic as the emerging "AI Price Fixing Dystopia". We'll talk about how the relationship between vacancies and rental prices has changed since the introduction of software of the kind RealPage is selling, the significance of the RealPage antitrust case, and how scandals like this tie into the issue of evictions and homelessness. We'll also delve into broader issues related to cartels and the threat monopoly capital poses to U.S. consumers, the Google antitrust lawsuit and Judge Amit Mehta ruling that Google is a monopolist in violation of antitrust laws, the significance of the Google antitrust lawsuit and what could come of it, the Federal Trade Commision's Lina Khan and Department of Justice Jonathan Kanter & the antirust project, how price fixing also ties into food and airline prices, countering anti-antitrust propaganda, the concept of "greedflation" as the cause of inflation, and much, much more.
