Episode 310 opens with Steve Dennis reporting back from an invitation-only Amazon analyst day in Seattle, two days focused on Prime and grocery. Steve unpacks the breadth of the Prime flywheel, Amazon's push into sub-one-day delivery, the drone facility he toured just before the company announced an expansion to roughly 500 markets, and why Amazon's rise to the number two grocer in North America should have rivals looking over their shoulders. Then, the numbers. US retail sales grew about 5% excluding fuel. Walmart delivered a lackluster 2.6% US comp, its weakest in six years, offset by a 46% jump in global advertising and nearly $3 billion in tariff refunds the company says it will reinvest in price. Target posted a nearly 4% comp with traffic up 3.6%; real progress, though Steve cautions the invitation can be better than the party. In off-price, TJX comped 4% while Ross Stores turned in a second straight double-digit quarter. And Simon Property Group made the case that great physical retail is alive and well. The interview, recorded live at the CommerceNext Growth Show in New York, features Scott Friend, Partner at Bain Capital Ventures, and Indy Guha, General Partner at VMG Partners. Scott co-founded price optimization pioneer ProfitLogic before joining BCV twenty years ago; Indy co-leads VMG's commerce infrastructure fund after scaling Signifyd. Together they tackle a hard question: when AI makes everything easier to build, how do you tell a real company from a pitch formula? Their answer centers on founder clarity and earned domain expertise, because a couple of quarters' head start has never mattered more. The conversation ranges across whether personalization and merchandising optimization are now table stakes, the surveillance pricing debate, AI-driven homogeneity versus the promise of the "N of one" customer journey, and Indy's memorable "Claude-proof" test for anyone building in commerce. Both push back on agentic commerce hype, arguing agents will own low-interest replenishment missions while people keep the treasure hunt. Scott points to the revenue ramp of AI-native companies as evidence this cycle is real, not overhyped. Both land in the same place: brand, community, and authenticity are the last durable moats, and retail teams must become architects rather than assembly-line workers. Back in studio, on the radar: Steve tracks the bond market, with 30-year Treasuries at a 19-year high and the 10-year at 4.75%, squeezing discretionary income and retailer expansion plans alike. Michael watches Canadian icon Roots, newly sold to New York's Marquee Brands with Joe Mimran advising on merchandising, and asks whether the brand can reclaim its former glory. Registration is open for a special webinar featuring Steve in conversation with Placer AI's Head of Analytical Research RJ Hottovy.

Inside Politics Live is coming to Cork on September 30th. Get your tickets here. Harry McGee and Jack Horgan-Jones join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:Today the Government announced that it will stall the planned increase to fuel excise duty that was due to come into effect at the start of September. The increases for September and October 1st will no longer go ahead. A recall of the Dáil next Friday to pass this measure is looking likely. The decision comes after the Government faced pressure from Coalition backbenchers as well as members of the Opposition. On Thursday night Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald wrote to Taoiseach Micheál Martin demanding the Dáil be recalled for a vote to delay the planned reversal of excise duty cuts.Sunday's tragic collision on the M9 motorway left five teenagers dead and three sisters and a 7-year-old child in serious condition. The tragedy raises questions about Garda pursuit capabilities and training and the responsibility of social media platforms like TikTok to respond to footage of dangerous driving and joyriding shared on the platform.An aide for Tánaiste Simon Harris has come into the spotlight after The Irish Times reported on social media posts where he mocked teachers for being work-shy and deemed the public “racist”. John Kelly is Harris' constituency director who deleted his X account after he was questioned about numerous posts. Comments that are now deleted refer to Britain's Prince Harry as a “snowflake” and call US president Donald Trump a “moron”.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week, including the decline in number of Catholic baptisms in Ireland, the Alternative for Germany (AfD) candidate leading the polls in Saxony-Anhalt election and the ridiculousness of “Woke 1.0”.Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?

They unpack the late amendments that finally got the Big Ten and SEC on board with new guardrails against private equity and superconference consolidation, plus a proposed retention cap that could more than double the current revenue-share ceiling. Dan and Mike question whether the bill has real momentum or is mostly political noise without practical consensus behind it.From there, the conversation turns to the eligibility litigation wave sparked by the NCAA's five-for-five model and its exclusion of the 2022 recruiting class. Sam walks through how courts are broadly willing to enjoin NCAA bylaws across a growing patchwork of state and federal cases, with a detailed look at the Cole Hutson matter - the Texas offensive lineman who went through NFL rookie minicamps before winning a TRO against the NCAA and folding into the Wisne class action to rejoin the Longhorns. The group also flags a likely issue to arise: what happens to an athlete's eligibility after going through a professional draft and summer league, using RJ Lewis's LSU-to-NBA-draft-to-Celtics-summer-league situation as the live example.They close on one of the week's most talked-about stories: Jayden Daniels' cease-and-desist letter to LSU over the reissue of his No. 5 jersey. Sam contextualizes it against similar NIL-after-graduation suits from Jameson Williams and Ezekiel Elliott, and the group questions where the legal line actually sits between a school honoring a player's legacy versus commercially exploiting it, even as they agree the timing hasn't done Daniels any favors.Let us know your thoughts!***Have a topic you want to write about?

Jace and Rocky break down all 11 DC releases for the week of August 12, 2026. In Green Lantern Corps #19, Guy Gardner brings the Lanterns bonded to the emotional entities together around a new idea: their individual emotions remain distinct, but they may now be able to draw on the entire emotional spectrum when they need it. In Barbara Gordon: Breakout #4, Barbara finally meets one of the innocent people she entered prison to find—a cop locked up for refusing to play along with Vandal Savage—while Sparrow's murder gives the story some badly needed forward momentum. In Clayface: Celebrity Dirt #2, someone is impersonating Clayface, and his attempt to uncover who is behind it becomes much more personal when a friend he confides in is murdered. In Fury of Firestorm #5, Firehawk briefly reaches the Ronnie Raymond trapped inside the Firestorm Matrix, but Professor Stein's reaction when the sentient Matrix calls him "father" raises new questions about whether his supposed remorse was ever genuine. In Emperor Aquaman #20, Arthur moves his fight with Poseidon away from Earth so he can finally cut loose, and the God of the Sea gets a firsthand demonstration of just how terrifyingly powerful Aquaman has become. In Absolute Batman #23, Bruce's obsession with Jack Grimm has reached the point where he believes virtually every defining moment in his life was deliberately engineered, leaving his oldest friends wondering whether Batman has gone too far. The Nice House by the Sea #11, the penultimate issue of the second arc, finally delivers major answers and forward momentum for the larger mystery while still making the revelation involving Oliver land through the character drama that has defined the series. In Supergirl #16, still believing Superman is missing, Kara takes responsibility for the House of El as Zod's larger plan begins coming into focus and a female Eradicator unexpectedly enters the conflict. In Bleeding Hearts #7, Poke's growing bond with Rabbit and her mother shows him becoming increasingly human, but that fragile connection is threatened when Rabbit is grievously injured by one of the undead. In Batman and Robin: Year One — Dynamic Duos #1, a young Bruce nearly loses control when a group of kids mug him and his date, while an encounter with the Wolfpack gives him another early lesson in becoming the Batman he will eventually be. In Action Comics #1101, Lois Lane proves why she is a Pulitzer-winning reporter by getting under General Zod's skin, probing for his real agenda and deliberately keeping him talking because she knows he may be planning to kill her. Meanwhile, Superman has returned, but will it be just to face defeat at the hands of Zod? Jace and Rocky also cover the week's collected editions, reprints and facsimiles before ranking all 11 books and revealing their Books of the Week.   Chapter 00:00 — DC Week Overview, Legion Reactions & Comic-Con Follow-Up 16:42 — Green Lantern Corps #19 33:40 — Barbara Gordon: Breakout #4 37:55 — Clayface: Celebrity Dirt #2 41:23 — Fury of Firestorm #5 53:34 — Emperor Aquaman #20 1:11:15 — Absolute Batman #23 1:36:53 — The Nice House by the Sea #11 1:47:58 — Action Comics #1101 1:48:07 — Supergirl #16 1:57:33 — Bleeding Hearts #7 2:01:05 — Batman and Robin: Year One — Dynamic Duos #1 2:09:47 — Collected Editions, Reprints & Facsimiles 2:13:29 — Rankings & Books of the Week

National Potato Council CEO and Specialty Crop Farm Bill Alliance Co-Chair Kam Quarles joined the podcast to provide an update on the Senate Agriculture Committee's recent 10-11 vote on the Agriculture Act of 2026 -- also known as the Farm Bill. Disagreements over the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program stalled the bill's progress, pushing negotiations until after the Senate returns from a month-long Labor Day recess. Quarles explains why this pause offers lawmakers a crucial window to draft bipartisan solutions rather than shutting down the process for the year.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 4 (8.6) We start with the Runyon Canyon restroom that won't quit: a two-stall prefab unit craned in near the Fuller Avenue entrance back in February at a price tag pushing $1 million, and six months later hikers still can't get through the fence. Stalls, sinks, sidewalks, lighting — all installed, all off-limits. Then a story that actually feels good: Lewis Kalb dropped roughly $22,000 in a Phillies charity auction to call the third inning against the Nationals, sat in with Scott Franzke and Larry Andersen, and turned in a broadcast so clean it went viral. From there it gets strange — investigators pulled 251 dogs from an unlicensed L.A. County kennel connected to "Exorcist" actor Linda Blair. Do the math on that cleanup. We close with a fast round: promising research for dog allergy sufferers, a new TikTok deal opening Disney brands to creators, and a former California State Parks superintendent in court on accusations he secretly recorded lifeguards.

This last installment picks up with the 2014 election of Joko Widodo, or Jokowi, to the presidency.

This Day in Legal History: America's First Representative AssemblyOn July 30, 1619, in a wooden church at Jamestown, twenty-two elected representatives took their seats alongside the governor and his council, and the first representative legislative assembly in what would become the United States came to order. This was the Virginia General Assembly—soon known through its elected chamber as the House of Burgesses—and it marks the beginning of self-government by elected representatives in America.The mechanics were modest and the setting brutal: two burgesses were elected from each of the colony's eleven settlements, and they met in sweltering heat so severe that one burgess died during the six-day session. But the principle was revolutionary. Under instructions from the Virginia Company, Governor George Yeardley had called forth a body in which colonists—not just a distant crown or company—would have a hand in making the laws that governed them. It became the oldest continuous law-making body in the New World, and it planted an idea that would grow over the next century and a half into a full-blown theory of government by consent.The significance of July 30, 1619 is that so much of American constitutional order traces back to this cramped, miserable first session. The House of Burgesses trained generations of colonial leaders in the practice of legislative self-government; it was the venue where figures like Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson cut their political teeth; and its example fed directly into the revolutionary conviction that legitimate power flows from the consent of the governed and is exercised through elected representatives. It's a fitting anniversary for a day when one of our stories turns on that very principle—the Senate's constitutional duty to advise and consent on who leads the Justice Department.President Trump and the Justice Department have asked the Supreme Court to throw out the $83 million defamation verdict that writer E. Jean Carroll won against him, arguing that he can't be sued for statements he made while he was president. Some quick context: a Manhattan jury awarded Carroll roughly $83 million in early 2024 over defamatory comments Trump made in 2019 denying her sexual-assault allegation. This is now Trump's second trip to the Supreme Court in the Carroll saga—recall that back in June the justices declined to hear his appeal of a separate $5 million verdict, which we covered here. The new appeal leans heavily on the Court's 2024 presidential-immunity decision, which gave presidents broad immunity for official acts. Trump's lawyers argue that because he made the disputed statements in 2019 while in office, that immunity should shield him, and they accuse the appeals court of “procedural contortions” to avoid the question. The significance is about how far the 2024 immunity ruling stretches. That decision arose in the context of criminal prosecution for official acts; here it's being deployed to wipe out a civil defamation judgment for things a sitting president said to reporters. Whether “official act” immunity reaches a president's public denials about a private, decades-old personal matter is a genuinely consequential question—and the fact that the Justice Department has joined Trump's personal civil appeal is itself a notable signal about how the government is deploying its weight. Trump asks Supreme Court to throw out E. Jean Carroll's $83 million verdict | ReutersWashington Post · CNNTodd Blanche's bid to become attorney general has hit a serious snag: the Senate Judiciary Committee scrapped a planned vote after Republican Senator John Cornyn said he is “not prepared to vote yes.” We've tracked Blanche's nomination through his confirmation hearing, and the math has always been tight—with the recent death of Senator Lindsey Graham, committee Republicans have just one vote to spare, so Cornyn alone could sink it. What's notable is the substance of his objection, because it ties together several threads we've followed all month. Cornyn's concerns center on the administration's roughly $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization fund” and the settlement of Trump's lawsuit against the IRS—the very deal a federal judge voided weeks ago as a collusive arrangement, and which would have handed Trump and his associates protections from tax audits unavailable to ordinary taxpayers. In other words, the sticking point isn't Blanche's résumé; it's the integrity of the tax system and whether the Justice Department has been used to engineer special treatment. The committee said the vote is postponed while it works “to secure sufficient support.” The significance is a real-time illustration of advice and consent functioning as a check—not a rubber stamp. A president's nominee for the nation's top law-enforcement job is stalled because a member of his own party wants answers about a tax settlement that courts have already called unlawful. It's the Senate's constitutional role doing exactly what it's designed to do: forcing accountability before handing over power.Trump's attorney general nominee hits snag as senator withholds support | ReutersNPR · Washington PostAnd finally, a story close to home for anyone in this profession: the debut of the new national bar exam has gone badly wrong. This week marked the first-ever administration of the NextGen Uniform Bar Examination—a major overhaul of how aspiring lawyers are licensed—across ten jurisdictions. And in Washington State, it collapsed. Officials canceled the entire first day of testing after network bandwidth and Wi-Fi problems left hundreds of examinees unable to even access the exam; somewhere between 645 and 700 standard-time test-takers were affected. Missouri saw delayed start times, and a Maryland site had a shorter delay. The National Conference of Bar Examiners, which runs the exam, insists the NextGen platform itself performed as intended and pinned the failures on local network and site infrastructure rather than the software. That's cold comfort to the test-takers. Think about what's actually at stake for them: months of full-time study, bar-prep costs, and in many cases a job offer contingent on passing—all thrown into limbo. Washington is offering a make-up exam on September 1, or the option to transfer to the February 2027 sitting or get a refund, and there are already calls for a class action and even for “diploma privilege”—admitting these graduates without an exam. The significance is both practical and symbolic. Practically, hundreds of careers are on hold through no fault of the examinees. Symbolically, the gateway to the legal profession—the gatekeeping ritual that's supposed to certify competence—failed a basic test of its own on its most important day, and it's going to intensify the already-heated debate over whether the bar exam, in any form, is the right way to license lawyers.Tech problems, cancellation mar new US bar exam for some test-takers | ReutersBloomberg Law · Above the Law This is a public episode.

One of the biggest compensation frustrations for junior partners is how to move your comp meaningfully as you are still working to grow your practice and especially to originate work and land new clients. At the same time, compensation is no longer driven primarily by hours worked, responsibility assumed, or even the importance of the matters you manage. Instead, compensation increasingly reflects where you sit within the firm's economic structure, particularly your connection to origination, revenue attribution, and client ownership. Many junior partners are carrying enormous responsibility, leading major client matters, and serving as the day-to-day face of important relationships, only to discover that those contributions do not automatically translate into significant compensation increases. In this episode, I explain why firms distinguish between creating revenue and executing revenue, and why compensation committees place greater value on the lawyers who influence client origination, relationship expansion, and long-term profitability. I walk through the important difference between execution and attribution, explain why being indispensable to a matter is not the same as receiving economic credit for it, and share practical ways junior partners can begin positioning themselves closer to origination. Using real-world examples involving client retention, matter profitability, and identifying new business opportunities, I explain how to frame your contributions in ways that compensation committees recognize as commercially meaningful and directly tied to firm economics. At a Glance 01:20 Why junior partners are surprised by their compensation despite carrying significantly more responsibility 02:37 The associate mindset that equates hours, responsibility, and client work with higher compensation 03:35 How compensation committees focus on revenue attribution instead of execution 04:28 What origination really means beyond simply bringing in a new client 05:25 Howrunning major matters is often viewed as execution rather than economic ownership 05:51 Whyrelationship partners receive credit even when junior partners do the work 06:55 Why compensation follows where revenue originates and expands instead of following legal work performance 07:46 The distinction between creating value through client ownership and delivering value through execution 08:13 How junior partners begin connecting execution to origination without already holding origination credit 09:02 Why comp committees prioritize long-term client ownership and attribution over annual workload increases 10:21 Commercially meaningful ways junior partners can strengthen future compensation discussions 10:47 How stabilizing an at-risk client relationship can become a powerful compensation narrative 12:44 Why improving realization, profitability, and matter scope - even without origination creates economic value 15:02 How identifying adjacent client problems can generate entirely new revenue streams 17:00 Why "revenue-relevant execution" is the framework that changes compensation conversations For Apple Podcasts, click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select "Write a Review."

If you are the only person who can close deals, your company cannot scale beyond your personal capacity. Founder-led sales may build the business in the beginning. But eventually, it becomes the bottleneck. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why relying on the founder to close every high-ticket deal creates a revenue ceiling—and how to build a sales system that performs without you. Your charisma is not a scalable process. If the pipeline stops when you take a vacation, get sick, or focus on another part of the company, you do not have a true sales department. You have a job that depends entirely on you. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why founder-led sales becomes a liability as the company grows• How to document your pitch, objections, and closing process• Why repeatable systems are more valuable than individual charisma• How training a sales team allows the founder to focus on bigger opportunities The truth is simple: You cannot build exponential growth while sitting on discovery calls all day. Record the pitch. Document the process. Build the playbook. Train your team to prospect, present, and close without your involvement. True leverage is making money when you are not in the room.

Craig sees a mixed and largely directionless crypto market, with Bitcoin repeatedly struggling to move decisively above $65,000. After roughly three weeks of minimal progress, the weekly chart raises the possibility that Bitcoin is forming a lower high before another move down. Craig is staying cautious and would rather wait for a confirmed breakout or a clean rollover than force trades in a market with weak momentum and declining volume. He also points to exchange shutdowns as further evidence that trading activity has dried up and says a fast drop toward $50,000 could create a healthier reset and better buying opportunities. For now, he is completely flat, with NEAR presenting the clearest potential short setup.

The eighth and final episode in a series on the history of Indonesia: a hinge in the world system where colonialism and revolution have decisively shaped the trajectory of global history. This last installment picks up with the 2014 election of Joko Widodo, or Jokowi, to the presidency. That promise was soon betrayed, laying the groundwork for the rise of Prabowo Subianto, a scion of Suharto who represents nearly everything repugnant about the New Order regime. And yet Prabowo's rule remains beset by contradiction and controversy—and the Indonesia's political future remains uncertain.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic reporter Nava Freiberg joins host Gabriella Jacobs for today's episode. Following an 11th consecutive night of US strikes on Iran and Iranian strikes on its Gulf and Arab neighbors, Freiberg offers possible paths forward in the war. Freiberg analyzes US President Donald Trump's claim Tuesday that the US will be striking Iran’s Pickaxe Mountain “probably pretty soon,” amid reports that Tehran has moved nuclear centrifuges, and possibly even enriched uranium, to the secretive underground enrichment site. Is this bombastic threat just part of Trump's strategy to keep Iran guessing or could the US be prepping a ground invasion? Lebanese President Joseph Aoun met with US President Donald Trump in Washington on Tuesday, where Aoun declared that his country will permanently end hostilities with Israel. Freiberg comments on Trump's remark at the meeting that he is open to speaking directly with the Iran-backed terror group -- if Beirut asked -- after Aoun requested backing in his efforts to disarm Hezbollah. In the second half, we move on to discuss Trump’s Gaza peace plan, which nine months ago was hailed as an end to the war in the Strip and the beginning of Gaza's reconstruction. Freiberg explains why the framework is only moving forward in “baby steps.” The episode closes with a special visitor, Sarah Tuttle-Singer, curator of the Peoples of Israel project, who introduces us to her work and the project's goals.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Haven’t heard about Seattle’s comprehensive plan recently? Well, the city council is supposed to be working on it, but the process is on hold because of appeals. Just to catch you up: The comprehensive plan is a set of zoning changes that are supposed to be a blueprint for future growth. It’s required by state law. It usually means allowing more housing density. One thing this iteration of the plan would do is change zoning laws to allow for six story buildings in neighborhood centers across the city. The appeals that are currently putting the plan on hold are based on the State Environmental Policy Act or SEPA. City Councilmember Eddie Lin, who chairs the Land Use and Sustainability Committee, said that the current phase of the Comprehensive Plan will be delayed into late 2026 or possibly next year. He’s proposing a change that’s working its way through city council. It would limit these types of appeals.

This episode comes to you live from our pop-up studio at the CommerceNext Growth Show in New York City. Our guest: Jason LaRose, CEO of Bombas — the brand that turned socks, underwear, and tees into a mission-powered growth machine, with more than 200 million essential clothing items donated to people experiencing homelessness. But first, the news — and in our summer biweekly format, there's plenty. Steve breaks down Nike's unimpressive quarter: revenues down, China off 12%, and an operating profit boost driven almost entirely by a nearly billion-dollar one-time tariff refund. The contrast with Levi's couldn't be sharper — under Michelle Gass, the brand posted 8% sales growth, expanding margins, and momentum across women's and tops. The winners keep winning elsewhere too. Aritzia's remarkable run continues with comps up an eye-popping 35% and digital up nearly 60%. Uniqlo parent Fast Retailing delivers 22% revenue growth from its 2,500-store global fleet. And Costco's monthly numbers offer fresh evidence of retail's Great Concentration. Then there's Kroger, acquiring regional grocery powerhouse Giant Eagle — a $9 billion revenue business bought at a strikingly low multiple. Michael and Steve debate the real question: does acquiring-to-compete solve Kroger's relevance problem, or just buy cost leverage against Walmart, Costco, and Amazon? Then it's on to Jason LaRose, who joined Bombas after leadership roles at Under Armour and Equinox. What drew him in: a genuine mission wrapped around outstanding economics — profitable essentially since day one. He traces the brand's arc from Indiegogo campaign and Shark Tank's most successful company ever to nearly $2 billion in cumulative sales, now expanding into underwear, tees, footwear, and slippers — the very items most requested in homeless shelters. LaRose also delivers a masterclass in disciplined distribution: highly curated wholesale partnerships with Target, Dick's, Nordstrom, and Scheels, each with distinct assortments for distinct customers, alongside the brand's first stores and expansion into Canada. His mantra — quality, comfort, mission, in that order — explains why repeat rates keep the funnel from leaking where so many DTC peers sprang holes. Wrapping up, on Steve's radar: a Dallas-area tour of the newly merged Container Store and Bed Bath & Beyond format (who exactly is this store for?), plus his provocative new Substack essay, "Convenience is Boring." On Michael's radar: the soon-to-open Gordie Howe Bridge, his conversation with U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra, and why USMCA review limbo keeps piling uncertainty — and cost — onto businesses and consumers across North America.

In this episode, we kick things off with an exclusive look inside the massive rail merger that could reshape the U.S. economy. During the July Fourth weekend celebration in Philadelphia, FreightWaves spoke with Union Pacific CEO Jim Vena and Norfolk Southern CEO Mark George about their pending merger alongside the iconic Big Boy No. 4014 steam locomotive. As the Surface Transportation Board begins its formal review, the executives remain highly optimistic about approval despite extensive regulatory hurdles ahead. Meanwhile, a potentially groundbreaking New York City law targeting Amazon and its Direct Service Providers has gone quiet for the summer, but sources say significant changes may be brewing. The proposed Delivery Protection Act shows no action since an April public hearing as amendment season unfolds behind closed doors. The legislation would prohibit subcontracting deliveries and require all last-mile workers to be directly employed by facility operators, though backers appear open to changes including a possible joint employer structure. Finally, we explore Mexico's trucking industry as it faces a brutal driver shortage that's threatening cross-border trade and domestic freight movement. A new survey by the International Road Transport Union reveals that fourteen percent of commercial driver positions in Mexico are sitting vacant, the second highest rate among eighteen markets surveyed. With roughly ninety thousand trucks currently sitting idle due to the shortage, and that figure potentially climbing above one hundred eight thousand by 2028, the crisis poses a critical threat to manufacturers and exporters that depend on road transportation.
