A Dark Road Ahead: The Constitutional Decay Continues
Plus mergers, space, and more…
Rule of Law: In The Bulwark, Corbin gives a riveting account of last weekend’s clash, over lawless renditions to El Salvador, between the Trump administration and the courts. His essay was covered in AlterNet.
Appearances: Corbin went on Broadband Breakfast Live to discuss whether independent agencies are constitutional, whether SCOTUS will overturn Humphrey’s Executor, and whether the Trump administration’s abuses of power will affect the Justices’ calculations.
Mergers: Bilal filed comments on the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission’s Draft Merger Assessment Guidelines. He recommended the final guidelines clarify identification of future competitors, recognize cumulative efficiencies, prioritize competitive areas of rivalry, and strengthen safe harbors.
Podcast: On the latest episode of our Rethinking Antitrust podcast, Bilal spoke with Andrea Coscelli, former CEO of the U.K.’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), about the Labor Government’s shift towards growth and what it means for competition enforcement.
Space: Going to Orlando this summer? Jim will be a keynote speaker at the first morning session of the International Space Development Conference on June 19, rolling out a new project aimed at deregulating “sandboxes” for space activities at the state level. Registration is now open!
