A highlight from XRP News: SEC Fight Continues!
"It's all going to zero. Sell everything. Alright, let's talk a little XRP. The main story here is the SEC appeal with XRP. There's a lot of moving parts. There's a lot of legal mumbo jumbo. We're going to try to sift through the noise and give you the real breakdown here. SEC seeks to file an appeal against XRP crypto case ruling. Here we have Gary Gensler looking at your tax records. The SEC has just announced plans to seek an interlocutory appeal against this July 13 court decision that Ripple Labs token is not a security when sold at crypto exchanges sold to retail. So we had one favorable ruling, one unfavorable ruling. They're obviously, they're appealing the one that they didn't like. So SEC said, hey, we don't like it when XRP isn't selling things as securities. They're fine. They didn't want to appeal, of course, anything working in their favor, but XRP is not looking good as far as the appeal goes. Well, let's talk about the grounds for appeal here. The SEC revealed that the appeal would be based on several grounds, including secret legal clarification on the evidence for differences of opinions. The attorney used judge Taurus or urge judge source to consider the impact an appeal will have on other lawsuits the commission is pursuing, especially in cases like SEC versus Coinbase, also probably SEC versus Binance US. The SEC wants the court to order a stay of proceedings during the upcoming appellate review. So they're saying, hey, you know how you ruled against us. Hey, we're, we're also like fighting all these other crypto companies. That's not a good look for us. I don't think the re the judge is really going to care about that though. The stance on cryptocurrency, the SEC views digital assets, such as cryptocurrencies as securities and has always claimed regulatory authority. The commission has seared over 100 enforcement actions against companies and ball crypto, where many culminated in alternative dispute resolution agreements, such as settling. They are known for settling. They're not known for taking something all the way to jury. If it does go to jury, this is my understanding, according to John Dean jury, if it goes to jury, we have second quarter of next year. Yes. Yeah. So we gearing up right around the having, I could see some bullish action if they do push it back that far. But the big takeaway here is ultimately that has a lot more to do with the SEC versus ripple, not the SEC versus XRP. There's not a lot they can do to suppress XRP at this time. They're not appealing. They can't appeal against the ruling by judge Torres that XRP is not a security. So anyone who's freaking out, wondering, Hey, is this, is this going to lead towards XRP getting overruled? That's not happening yet. I mean, that's obviously what Gary wants, but he has to stay within his legal framework. And that's not his option. We were saying this months ago, there's going to be a lot of back and forth with the football here. You know, we've started in 2020 in December and, you know, there's always like this huge decision landmark is going to be three months from now. And then it happens three months and it's like, Oh yeah, there's an appeal process. Yeah. And then there's like, Oh yeah, but now it's about to end and be like, Oh yeah, well now there's like an appellate court appeal process. Okay. So are there, are we done? No, no, no. There's one above that. And then it goes to Supreme court. There's always going to be a, you know, they're always going to kick the ball. All right. I just think the good news, I think the biggest takeaway here is this, what just happened should have no effect on stopping XRP from rallying this bull market. It might just delay Ripple's ability to go public and start getting all that stuff. They just got to clear all this stuff up first. That's the big takeaway here. XRP is safe. Yeah. Well, I think big institutions, they want more of a slam dunk win. And I don't think we have the slam dunk win yet. All right. Expressing here, we're going to talk about Deaton here, expressing his excitement about XRP being removed from the latest list of sec securities on coin gecko. Dean tweeted today, not on the list XRP. Deaton compared this development to how it began three years ago when the sec claimed that ripple sold over 14 .6 billion units of digital asset security. So there's the coin gecko list. We actually pulled it up early in the show. So it was no longer on there. There are still are some tokens on the list. BNB, Cardano, Solana, Tron, polygon, a ton coin, BUSD, Adam file coin, ICP, near algo sand, actually infinity mana or decentralized flow chilies. And it's not bit torrent. Is it? No, it is bit torn, not bit token bit torrent as well. So ripple CTO responded positively to this admission saying not on the list. Orange groves, live, live beavers, warehouse receipts for whiskey casks and XRP is a humorous reference to some of the other items sec has once tried to bring under its regulatory control, just like they want to stop Ethereum. They also try to stop live beavers and whiskey casks, man, and they always just go too far, don't they? Here we have Jeremy Hogan, breaking down Eleanor Terrence. She was on the show before. Yeah. ATB as well. Taurus says the court will seek to schedule a jury trial and the second calendar quarter of 2024. So April, May, June, 2024. They order both parties to submit blackout dates for trial by Wednesday, August 23rd. So Jeremy Hogan breaking it down. Individual defendants trial will begin around May 2024. That means final judgment in the case won't be entered until 2024. late summer At the earliest, any appeal would go well into 2025. The gloves on the other hand now delays are good for XRP and ripple. Would you agree that delays are good? Well, I mean, yeah, good. I don't know if I'd say good, but it's not detrimental. I think John Deaton made it really clear. They expected this. You said it. We expected this. No one's surprised by anything. And ultimately, again, this is more like a last ditch effort by SCC because they've lost and they know it. And they just don't like to wave the white flag because they want to try to still go after these other companies and coins. This is their only option. They had to do something in their eyes. Ripple prepares response as SCC asked for appeal permission. I think that's Deaton right there thinking of civil war battles. No, this is a chief legal officer. Stuart outer already, I think I'm saying it right, has responded to the recent announcement by the SCC regarding its intention to appeal judge towards his partial judgment that favored ripple. He asserts that SCC does not have the authority to launch an appeal to do so they're seeking the court's permission to proceed with what is known as this interlocutory appeal. Conversely, rebel plans to present its counter to the court filing in the coming week, a tweet from him elaborates on the matter saying SCC does not have the right to appeal just yet, which is why they're asking permission to file. Ripple will file his response within the court next week. Stay tuned. So it looks like this is not a normal thing that they filed this interlocutory appeal. And so they're asking for permission, and then they'll be granted permission or not and whether or not they can then file this appeal. And then ripple will have a their day in court as they get to appeal the appeal. And then here we go, you know, this topsy turvy thing for the next, I guess another six months, it looks like at this point, again, it's just a kick the can further down the road keep delaying because you don't want you want to waste taxpayer money and not admit defeat is what Gary's thinking right now. All right, stop spreading FUD. I don't think we don't know which part yet. Not yet. It's all going to zero sell everything. There you go. There you go. There's your fun. All right. I'm watching the chart. It's dropping the minute chart. It's down. All right, back to the SEC here. The SEC's pursuit of this appeal in the ripple case marks a pivotal juncture in the ongoing debate over XRP's classification. As regulatory continues, clarity continues to shape the crypto landscape. This case could potentially set a precedent for how other digital assets navigate their legal standing. That's why there's a lot riding on this. And that's why the SEC is fighting it so hard. They're saying, hey, this ruling is going to be used for other cryptocurrencies. So we can't have anything favorable for a crypto protocol has to be all negative. You got to be team SEC judge, come on. We got to fight these coins and prevent them from launching. That was Brad Garlinghouse. Thank you.

Fresh "Court Of Appeals" from Mark Levin
"Found judge enderon that it didn't but he just didn't like it anyway so he said quote you can't just do this because the zoning allows it I just can't believe this is the case alas for the judge it was the case so the higher court reversed him last year he held up a plan build to new housing on a parking lot near the South Street seaport because he claimed the developer had quote an impermissible relationship with the landmarks Preservation Commission in fact the judge just didn't like the plan that decision too was tossed in a unanimous decision by of the Court Appeals that Trump historically is widely overvalued is holding is hardly a secret he boasts his boasts were long and laughing stock among real estate pros but whether this gives Endergon the authority to strip him of his entire company will surely end up a in higher court if history's any guard Trump will soon be taking a victory lap now some people in the past have said you know what look to left the of you look to the right of you you think these people who are voting should be electing judges? So if you're in a Democrat city and you're Republican and they're voting for their judges you don't vote for judges? And then the judge does things that he knows his constituents will like like trying to screw over the Trump family? Judges should be term limited. All this talk about term limiting before that began was a debate in the Constitutional Convention they didn't call term limits on how to appoint judges how long they should serve and so forth and so on but it really began earnestly in modern times in my first book Men in Black where I proposed term limits for judges including Supreme Court justices and I still believe that I think I put the number 14 years it might have been 12 years I still believe that Now one of the problems with it however because none of these processes are or suggestions is what's happened to the Senate and the confirmation hearing process so that becomes a big issue but there's where you have an election on what kind of a Senate you want but if judges and justices are going to be legislators they're going to push political agendas then they ought to have lifetime appointments with respect to judgeships federal judgeships that are not related to the Supreme Court Congress has ubiquitous power to create judgeships to even remove jurisdictions from judges subject jurisdiction this is something I've been talking about I mean we really want to make effective change how come nobody talk mr. British tell Matt gates would you Matt Matt are you out there Matt how about how about taking a shot at political shot obviously taking a shot at rearranging some of these courts Matt matter you Matt you there I'm over here get away trying to get your attention something that I believe in and I've talked to you about this the DC district courts that busted should be up to cabal Republican and Democrat but all left except for a few poor souls there can't have all these cases federal involving politicians rules federal laws federal nations Congress and all going through this cabal they have too much power and they've demonstrated that they've abused it I mean you have this judge trunk in Israel I will not recuse myself and because the people need me desperately nobody needs you at all matter of but read her comic book style opinion in her own defense it's written like a pre -law wannabe lawsuit it's so stupid but she gets to rule on herself you know then we had the weird situation where the government itself said don't recuse yourself we need you we like you we want you that you're the perfect judge to help us try to try Trump I've seen that in my life I've told you where a party asks the judge to recuse then the other party comes in and files a reply now don't recuse you know you're the best we can get and they she's the best the government can get she's all in on getting Trump she's made that clear with just the that's the ruling about when the trial is going to begin the absurdity of that yes she's an absurd judge she's a radical left -wing judge she should have recused herself but look at this case everybody let me make a challenge to you you know on online there are all these real estate sites and you can see what properties are listed for you and can see what properties are listed for throughout Palm Beach even more specifically West Palm Beach on the ocean I think Mar -a -Lago's like 20 or 30 acres mr. producer acres 20 or 30 acres yes I told you it's public knowledge my friend Rush Limbaugh and they sold his his property was sold for over 150 million dollars beautiful different houses on it nothing ostentatious but there it is right on the Atlantic several acres he wanted his privacy needed his security several acres it's in North Palm Beach West Palm Beach is considered very hoity -toity you know it's the Palm Beach of the Palm Beaches and of course there's absolutely nothing there that compares to Mar -a -Lago's Zippo and all those acres and it's not only on the ocean it backs up to the waterway in the back and both ends they say it's worth around 300 million I would guess it's worth at least half a billion based on some of the prices out there but I would make a challenge to you go to realtor .com or whatever you like I don't know all the names of them and take a look at the price of homes for sale make sure they're on the Atlantic Ocean in West Palm Beach. The judge himself have could done this but he didn't he flaps a out number 18 million because he wants to screw Trump and then he goes further he bans them from doing any business in New York listen to this in since he wants some type of a conservator to take over most of the business. this this is Stalinist I would say wouldn't you mr. producer very Stalinist over there in mediocre right what did he say my god what it is doesn't he know what Stalin did oh my god very Stalinist and notice none of these left -wing sites or left -wing papers they never play it down in the middle they never tell you the truth they don't they're so excited about these these fascistic did he say fascistic does he know what fascistic means yes actually I do who issued these orders bring these charges make these ridiculously stupid rulings they never say wait minute a judge you know we don't like Trump but let's call this one straight okay that is ridiculous nope you won't read that that the slimes of the compost with a trial date judge Chunkin gonna come up with a name for Judge Chunkin comes up

A highlight from 1208. SEC Desperately Appeals XRP| Gemini Lists XRP
"All right, so let's jump into XRP today, and of course, the biggest news in the market right now is all about Gary Gensler and what he's trying to do to get revenge. We'll break it all down for you today. It's going to be a good one. My name is Paul Baron. Welcome back into Tech Path. I want to jump into a little bit about how all this has been architected by the SEC and how this flows into maybe crypto in general, especially what's going to happen with Ripple. Before I do that, I do want to thank our sponsor, and that is iTrust Capital. You guys are looking to get into long -term trading and holding of your assets, and you want to put it in an IRA, this is the way to do it. Check out iTrust Capital. You can actually invest into XRP. You can go into all sorts of different assets over there as well. So check out that, and of course, if you want to jump into gold and silver, you can do that as well. Click the link down below. So if you do that, you get a $100 funding reward, all you have to use is our link down below. So check it out. It does help the channel. All right. So I wanted to hit on a couple of things here. First up is this tweet from Eleanor Teret. This is the Fox Crypto reporter. New, Judge Torres says the court will seek to schedule jury trial for the SEC Ripple case in the second calendar quarter of 2024. This is jury trial on the second part of the ruling, not the part where Ripple was deemed not a security. Torres ordered both parties to submit blackout days for trial by the 23rd, see full deadline schedule. So that kind of was part of the process here that was going on with the courts and with the SEC. All right. So this tweet, just kind of hitting on a little bit more of the potential of what might happen. This is huge in the appeal context, so long as the SEC does not attempt an interlocutory appeal or does, and it is denied. So there's a couple of things that could play into this. But the key here is, is that would go all the way into as far out as 2025. That's what really what have been the scenario for most analysts right now has been saying that's going to take a long time. You know, it's a federal court. There's a process. All these things happen. All right. So here it is. The interlocutory appeal and the process. There's a couple of things in here I want to hit on. Obviously, this goes to Judge Torres, a couple of things we highlighted here. And I think it's interesting because of the urgency in which the SEC is trying to get this done. Timely appellate review is particularly warranted right now. SEC is seeking expedient and efficient ultimate resolution of this litigation. I was surprised that that didn't surprise me in the sense that they would say, hey, we want to hurry this along. The question was, is when they want to do it. And further in the documents, as Ripple itself has accordingly proclaimed that the conclusion of the suit could take years, and then they go as far as using a Cointelegraph article for that as their submission of here's facts. Waiting for a final judgment means that should the court appeal, reverse or remand, this court would need to redo remedies, phase discovery and litigation, any intervening trial. So this would affect a lot of what's happening with the SEC and many of their cases as well. Further into the document, they kind of go in here talking about the review as appropriate. Order involves control and question of law as to whether there is substantial ground for a difference of opinion, meaning, hey, you could change your mind of where this might play out. And then right here is interesting, the order's rulings are of particular consequence to an issue of programmatic concern to the SEC enforcement of the securities laws and potentially to a large number of pending litigation. So Coinbase is one of them. You also see Binance Holdings also referenced and many others that are in here. So this is really a bad position for the SEC because, first of all, they've got to get this through the judge to get it done. Whether or not the judge even would, maybe there's a possibility the judge might allow this, but the likelihood of doing this in the timeframe that the SEC wants it done is the big question mark. And I think as we go further in the document, you'll see what they're asking for. Other distributions, at least one court has already held that the crypto asset issuer used the assets to incentivize users. This is talking about the library case. And really, when you think about it, the library case, well known already, is that these were not investment contracts and they're already jumping to that conclusion on this. Further into this document, it says, the review would advance the termination of this litigation in an efficient manner by removing the possibility of two remedies, phases, and two trials. So meaning what they're trying to do is hyperspeed this thing into the courts so they can potentially get this underway. And then last up is what really surprised me, respectfully proposes a briefing schedule whereby the SEC files its opening brief on August 18th, that's next week, okay, which is two days after the defendant's response to this letter due. Defendant's opposition is 14 days, therefore, after all these rules, September 1st of this year and the SEC's reply is due seven days thereafter on September 8th. So they're trying to get all of this in within 30 days. And I have not seen any of these kinds of scenarios play into, especially around a federal law case, federal law issue, is that kind of speed. So even if there is a scenario where this plays out from the judge and they say, okay, maybe I should reconsider, the likelihood, I still think the judge would push this into next year. Of course, that changes everything in a big way. Here was Deaton kind of chiming in a little bit on certain conditions right here. This is Judge Rakoff. This is the judge that was in the library case, were gratuitous and unnecessary. He could have easily distinguished the Tara case from Ripple case, and that was something that we've talked about here on the channel. Maybe that's why he's been reversed over 50 times, ouch. But objectively speaking on paper, Rakoff ruling does give the SEC's request for in an interlocutory appeal a bit more teeth. So there are some scenarios that play into this. We'll probably try to get Deaton on to talk about this, but this is in reality a lot of FUD that has been put into the market. And interesting it's to where this FUD is coming from. I'll talk about that in a minute. But here was Judge Torres, this is crypto law coming in again. Judge Torres and the Second Circuit will both have to agree, zoom in on that for you a little bit, that the SEC's arguments for why an interlocutory appeal should be allowed. So that in itself would be a lot to get that approved and agreed. So that is another factor that is another kind of hurdle that you have to leap. The SEC argues that Torres' ruling could impact its other lawsuits, of course, we know. But in this particular case, John's simply saying this is the weakest of the SEC's arguments and saying, hey, well, you know, it's going to affect a bunch of other stuff we have going. That argument would apply every single time the SEC or any other governmental agency loses a decision. So it's kind of silly in essence. And I think that's the scenario is this puts up the SEC in a really bad position of going at it with this kind of case. Rather than going at it with case law and all these other things, it's basically saying, hey, we think this is all happening. We've got all these other things, irons in the fire. All that plays into it to try to push and in essence bully the job. Here's another attorney jumping in on this. Scott Chamberlain. My bet Judge Torres denies the request. She studiously avoided new law. And then, of course, the SEC failed because the undisputed facts didn't support the Howey prongs for two of the three chosen transaction buckets, not because Judge Torres shifted the legal goalposts on the definition of those prongs. So maybe that is going to be the case. And if it is, that would be a stake in the heart, because now this could be utilized by all these other cases that are out there pending, including what's happening with Binance, Coinbase, et cetera. And now we would have a very, very bad look on the SEC itself, because even then the scenario of trying to get this back into trial would not have been the case. Here's Stuart Alderadi. He comes in. Remember, Alderadi is the attorney for Ripple. SEC does not have the right to appeal just yet, which is why they are asking permission to file this appeal. Ripple will file its response with the court next week. Stay tuned. So again, this is all pending. This is not an appeal that has been filed. This is just getting the right to appeal, which I think is the FUD that has been out there. Further into this, let's look at where Ripple and what they're doing. Hong Kong is now a high concentration, and Ripple, and we already know this, we've talked about it many times here on the show, of developers around blockchain and a lot of new investments happening over in Hong Kong, obviously, but they're excited, Ripple being excited to work with some new businesses over there and financial institutions, which we've said many times here on the show is that Asia is really starting to put some pressure on the Western countries moving in the right direction. You also have movement in Europe. Right here is France preparing to implement MICA crypto regulations, and they're looking at hyperspeeding this. Look at the date here that they're trying to pull this off. The country's financial regulator, AMF, announced that it's improving registration requirements for crypto firms, which will come into effect from January 1st, 2024. So MICA all moving in the right direction, Hong Kong still moving in the right direction, and you see what's happening here in the U .S. with this craziness with the SEC. So very interesting for sure. One other thing to be aware of is this headline right here, Ripple Joins BIS, Cross -Border Payments Task Force. This is a big deal because when you think about the globe and you look at payments in general, cross -border payments especially, Ripple has been pretty much a leader out there. The fact that they're coming in on the BIS, look at the task force members here. I'll zoom in on this a little bit so you can kind of see some of this. But you've got Paynet, this gets into payments, Canada, Ripple, of course, Swift is in here, Clearinghouse is in here, the Pan -Africa payment system is in here. So you've got a fairly significant. And then when you look at just the amount of exposure here within the BIS members, there's 63 jurisdictions in here that are ahead of this. So again, primary goal of the BIS is basically the international monetary and financial cooperation, mainly all banks and central banks communicating and working with each other. So that, again, shows the power and the strength of what Ripple is doing, and they continue to fight right here on the home front of where all this now. Does it make sense or does it really get into a lot with where XRP is going? Maybe not. Maybe all of this right now is just political theater. And if we do get a stablecoin passing, or if we do get something going at least on regulatory clarity for crypto in general, all of this starts to look very, very interesting in the future. Just timing here from this post from Gemini, I thought, man, this either is just by coincidence or it is a masterstroke in trolling the SEC. And this is, of course, Gemini launching. XRP is now available for deposit on Gemini. So I don't know, sometimes I think the Winklevoss twins are, they just, they have that about them that kind of goes in that direction.

"Wars, Netflix and Warner Brothers Discovery reached a deal to start streaming some of HBO's classic series on Netflix's platform. Some experts say the move comes as Warner Brothers Discovery looks for more ways to save money. The Steven Spielberg, Tom Hanks produced miniseries Band of Brothers and the Pacific, The Ballers and the Six Feet Under Two, all streaming on as Netflix part of the deal. The titles are still available on max. For now though you can catch all seasons of the winning award Insecure on Netflix with more HBO shows reportedly set to come. Kimberly Adams, Bloomberg Radio. And I'm Dan Schwartzman in the Bloomberg Newsroom. Here are some of the stories we're watching. The European Union's merger enforcers Researchers will be investigating Pfizer's proposed $43 billion takeover of Seguin. The proposed merger was brought to attention the of the European Commission after Seguin disclosed the deal in a regulatory filing late Friday. While both companies are headquartered in the US, they have the right under EU merger laws to ask the Commission to examine the deal rather than each individual EU nation. The Federal Trade Commission in the US will also examine the proposed merger in an in -depth antitrust review. Good news for Microsoft and its planned $69 billion mega deal for Activision Blizzard. More from deal. It's court appealed to block the nearly $69 deal. A US court appeals court denied the Commission's bid and this does clear a path for the companies to close the the largest gaming deal ever in the world. That's right. Only now, unless there's an FTC internal action, only UK regulators stand between the companies closing the deal before July 18 deadline. Britain's antitrust appeals court is a scheduled hearing for Monday to discuss the company's request to pause the challenge to their deal. The UK Competition and Markets Authority has agreed to give Microsoft. Meantime, an unprecedented second chance to offer a remedy and Bloomberg has been reporting Microsoft has offered to sell off its cloud -based market rights for games in the UK. And if it make doesn't the Tuesday deadline for the deal, Microsoft could have to pay Activision a $3 billion breakup fee, Dan. Bank stocks will continue to be in focus in the coming week with Bank of America, Morgan, Stanley, Goldman Sachs and others reporting along with regional some banks. Other big names in the financial industry including Charles Schwab and Blackstone will be reporting as well. Tesla has started Cybertruck production two years behind schedule. The company shared the development on its Twitter account posting a photo of workers gathered around the vehicle. When Elon Musk first showed a prototype of the pickup truck back in November 2019, the plan was for production to start just two years later. Non -English language music just might be the future of the music business. Bloomberg's Amy Morris has the numbers. Luminate a source of music industry data found in their 2023 mid -year report, global music streams are up nearly 31 % from last year. The global music music industry surpassed a trillion streams in just three months in 2023, a full month faster than in 2022, and two out of five US music listeners enjoy music in a non -English language. The most popular are Spanish and Korean, followed by Italian, German, and Arabic. Thanks Amy. India's largest steel producer JSW Steel is considering a bit of as much as a 20 % stake in Vancouver -based tech resources steelmaking coal business. The Mumbai -based companies in talks with banks over possible financing of the billion dollars.

"Members of Congress are watching the legal process of a case involving a widely used abortion pill. Now that the U.S. Supreme Court allowed its use to continue, while court appeals play out.

"Legal challenges that could mean no one receives a dollar of debt relief. The White House insists it will ultimately prevail even though two federal courts blocked the program from taking effect, an estimated 20 million people were eligible to get their federal student loan debt canceled entirely by Biden's plan, it would cancel $10,000 in student loan debt for those making less than a $125,000 or households making less than $250,000. Those who receive pell grants typically given to those with lower incomes would get another $10,000 in forgiveness. I've been talking to Bloomberg intelligence senior litigation analyst, Eliot Stein. Elliot, let's talk about the lawsuit that went up to the 8th circuit. 6 Republican states brought the lawsuit, what was their argument? They were arguing a few things, but sort of broadly speaking, the overarching theory of their case was that servicers that were instrumentalities of those states would be injured because the loan balances were reduced. They would earn less income in terms of servicing those loans. What's interesting is a lot of those servicers primarily service commercially held loans privately held loans. And so in response to that lawsuit originally, the administration tweaked its plan and narrowed it so that it would only apply to federally held loans and not privately held loans, but one of their servicers in that case during the state of Missouri also serviced, et cetera, helped loans. And so there are trial court judge in that case said, well, actually, you know, Missouri can't Missouri and the state service are actually separate entities in Missouri. It shouldn't be able to sue on behalf of the service area, but the service there thinks it's injured. It should do on its own. So the trial court, dismissed that lawsuit, but the 8th circuit said, well, actually, the servicer could be an arm of the state. It looks like it likely is an arm of the state. So we're going to put the administration's plan on hold while this appeal plays out. So they didn't reach the merits. They didn't fully decide standing yet even. But it looks like they're leaning towards finding standard and then once they find standard, I'm quite sure they'll also reject the plan on the merits. The dominated by judges named by Republican presidents and on the panel were three judges appointed by Republican presidents. Dominated by judges appointed by Republican presidents, but you know, I always say, you know, judges appointed by Republicans are less likely to defer to agency action, but that's a generalization that doesn't always hold the trial courtyard in that case was a George W. Bush appointee and he dismissed the lawsuit and it turned out different on appeal. Is the Biden administration appealing this 8 circuit decision to the Supreme Court? So the 8th circuit decision, that appeal is still playing out, right? All the circuit said was that they're putting the plan on hold while the appeal plays out. Now the administration could ask the Supreme Court to undo the stay of the plan, I think that's highly unlikely to succeed because it makes sense to sort of keep the status quo while litigation plays out. But they have already appealed the Texas judges decision to the 5th circuit. So that one will proceed. And in the meantime, what's happening to the people who are applying or were applying for student loan forgiveness. So applications that were already made before these decisions are just held in limbo. And since these decisions have come out in the last couple of weeks, the administration has basically suspended the application process. So you can't even apply for forgiveness at this point. This helps servicers for privately owned loans? Yeah, so in that in the 8th circuit case, in the trial court, when those when that lawsuit was first filed, the administration's plan originally would have allowed forgiveness for both loans held by the Department of Education, but also federal loans that were held by private entities. Commercial entities, what the fear was that a lot of the servicers like maybe like Navient or discover companies that service commercially held loans would sue. They never did, but that's some of the servicers that were stayed instrumentalities or there are 6 GOP states that sued. Did service commercially held loans. So what the administration did to try to essentially undercut those lawsuits was that they narrowed the plan and they said only federally held loan loans will be eligible for forgiveness and not commercially held loans. And so that basically took away the possibility of lawsuits by servicers that service commercially held loans. Like I said, the Missouri servicer also services federally held loans. And so they are still in the case. But companies like Navient, salary may discover. They're essentially already helped by the administration narrowing the plan only to federally held loans, which they don't even service. So in your opinion, the merits of the case are weak for the administration because it based it on the heroes act. Yeah, I mean, the way I would say it is that judges who subscribe to the philosophy of the major questions often and who want to sort of curtail the administrative state certainly are going to find the administration's justification for using the heroes act as weak and we've already seen that with the judge in Texas with the 8th circuit to some extent and we've seen it previously with the administration trying to use COVID to get certain things done, like the eviction moratorium, they the court said that CDC couldn't use they didn't have statutory authority to enact an eviction moratorium staying with oyster trying to get an employee of vaccine mandate. So we're sort of in this state where conservatives certainly dominate the Supreme Court and the 5th circuit in the 8th circuit and some other circuit courts they subscribe to the major questions doctrine. And unless you have a statute that really specifically authorizes action that has national and economic importance, they're going to reject agency action. Unless you can really point the specific statutory authority. Thanks so much, Elliot. That's Bloomberg intelligence, senior litigation analyst Elliott Stein.

"This is Bloomberg law with June Grasso from Bloomberg radio I've been talking to professor Stephen blatt of the University of Texas law school about the shrinking docket of the Supreme Court So besides that congressional action or inaction what else is causing the court to take so many fewer cases We don't know I mean as part of the problem here is that because this is all discretionary into causes you know the court never tells us why It has taken her not taking cases We're left to speculate But I do think there are a couple of fairly obvious at least circumstantial explanations One is as we've discussed before the court is doing more and more stuff through these unsigned unemployment emergency orders on the shadow docket that that's ticking up more of the court's attention each term I think also since it takes four votes to grant certiorari Well since justice Kennedy retired in 2018 I think the conservatives now can be more confident about which cases they do and don't want to take Since justice Ginsburg died in 2020 the liberals now don't have enough vote to force a grant of their on their own And I think the sort of what I do as the negative implications of the court theorem fewer cases that there are fewer cases articulating a new legal principle that there are fewer cases establishing law that can then be used in damages suits or in habeas petitions Frankly I think the current majority probably isn't much bothered by So if you add all these things together I think just some of the pressures that used to lead the court to take more cases Have evaporated at the same time as there are more and more demands on the justices time from other parts of their caseload I found it very interesting when you pointed out that when justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg died there's no longer a fourth vote for cases that the liberal members might want to hear that might be important to them Does that mean it's making it easier for the conservative members to push any agenda they might have Oh I don't think there's any doubt about that And I think that's been true not just since 2020 but since 2018 When justice Kennedy was the median vote on the court from 2006 to 2018 there were any number of cases where the conservative justice or at least some of them would vote to deny search even though they disagreed with the lower courts a really famous example of this June is the marriage case before obergefell There were this trench of early marriage cases where federal courts appeals had struck down state marriage bans and chief justice Roberts refused to provide a force to vote to grant cert even though Alito Thomas and Scalia wanted.

Yeah, Every election is the biggest election lifetime overused cliche, but they're important. They take the temperature of the country. But the issue this time wasn't in the election.

What will the Amy Coney Barrett's confirmation mean for the 2020 election?
"We can talk about murder boards. Because Amy Cockney Barrett has just being doing them. I've never heard of murder balls before One of our guests was saying it's the American phrase for a Nintendo practice interrogations where you get people to take you through what you're about to go through. If you're about to go through, for example, the confirmation hearings for the Supreme Court because she is President Trump's pick to fill the vacancy of Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Her appointment would cement Conservative majority on the Supreme Court with enormous political implications. Eyes like nothing seen in U. S history, so close to a presidential election, his Barbara Plata Amy Cockney. Barrett is a dream nominee for those on the right, but it is my honor to nominate One of our nation's most brilliant And gifted legal minds to the Supreme Court Appeals court judge is a formidable intellect, a devout Catholic, a supermom with seven Children. While I am a judge, I'm better known back home as a room, parent, carpool driver and staunchly conservative, although at this White House ceremony, she distanced herself from partisan divides. If confirmed, I would not assume that role for the sake of those in my own circle. And certainly not for my own sake. I would assume this role to serve you. It's just weeks from the election, but nothing is getting in the way of the rush to confirm the new Supreme Court Justice, the third nominated by President Trump, the stakes are just too high. Processes nomination consistent with rules. And I look forward to coming days will be a lot of fun. It will be fun for them. See Graham, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and other Republicans because it's an unprecedented chance to secure a conservative majority on the court for a generation. And also to recharge the election campaign by energizing the base help Amy Barrett and President Trump Fight back stand up for conservative values Republicans But also Democrats have adjusted their campaign adverts to address the unexpected vacancy on the Supreme Court is rushing through a Supreme Court nominee to do just that step away care from millions of Americans and pre existing condition protections for Democrats. This is a nightmare, a job for life. A court that sets the nation's social and cultural direction on issues like gay rights, gun control, abortion and Obama care. Judge Barrett is very fair, but fans of Judge Conti Barrett are convinced she's the best candidate for the job. She's a popular law professor and Laura Walk was one of her students. Judge Barrett is not swayed by any type of personal preferences or things like that again. Witness that in the classroom no one ever knew what Judge Barrett thought about an issue. She never let her students he never Pressured them to think a certain way. Everything was hyper focused on the law. Democrats don't have the votes to stop this, and they're furious about the politics. Today I am nominating Chief Judge Merrick Brian Garland to join the Supreme Court. In 2016, Republicans blocked President Obama from filling a Supreme Court seat because it was an election year. But now that they're in power, they've changed their tune. And the conservative media is almost giddy with excitement. This is going to have a massive impact on the American judiciary, thus gonna have a massive impact. On American culture and society. If Donald Trump secures the Supreme Court seat, even if he doesn't win the election, his presidency will be deemed a success by the ideological right and by evangelical Christians. That's why they voted for him, and it will be remembered as a turning point for the nation on some of the issues that matter the most to Americans.

Uber gets 18-month London license after winning court appeal
"Quarter uber lost $1.8 billion because of the covert pandemic. I mean, think about it. How often have you called up an uber or a lift? To catch a ride since the pandemic hit. I mean, I know personally, we used these uber and our family quite a bit a couple times a month between the five of us now we probably haven't used it twice. In four or five months. The company is trying Teo, you know, survive and come back and part of that involves expanding and having rideshare all around the world, including London, where Uber was able to get their license back after winning the court challenge and join us on the phone Now to talk about this is Simon Oh, and Fox News correspondent Welcome to the Bobby Smith Show. My morning, Kevin. So sort of walk us through this. What is what has been the history of uber in London? And then where do we stand today? Why's this ruling so important? That is a troubled history. But this is certainly a crucial victory for uber the taxi service that, as you say, spread all over the world in in recent years, But that rapid expansion as bean bumpy at times on DH no less so than here in the British capital on who ended up being stripped of its license to operate here last year. There's bean a Serie of skirmishes with the transport authority before that, on DH Uber was then told last November that that was it. It was being banned for what transport for London said with a pattern of failings, including summit said that puts passengers at risk well. Uber appealed that ruling. Went across it apologize. It was contrite. It accepted there had bean flaws in the past, but it said it had changed, but it has put things right on DH. Now A judge has sided with the company and the magistrate who heard this case. 10 a crime, said that while Uber wass guilty of historic failings, he said, its record Was improving on that he was satisfied that it is now in the words they used fit and proper to hold a license. So whoever is back it is very happy. London today particularly lucrative market it count 3.5 million regular customers here, so those 3.5 million people can continue to use. That the service transport regulator says it will be watching you that very closely. Yes. So you know here in the states, uber had a bumpy start here is well, And the biggest concern, of course, was people safety and there would be a report here and then a report there and and all of a sudden people were very concerned about how safe they were getting in a car with a stranger. But uber seemed to put together quite a lengthy list of Of things that they that they go through to make sure that the rider's air safe the background checks and being able to identify that driver actually is a driver. The biggest problem after they started went through their their safety checks was, you know, making sure customers got in the right car that they were supposed to be getting in more than anything else? I have had They done that in London. Do they have the same safety procedures? Do they? They make sure that they do background checks on all of that on the drivers, and they do checks on the cars. You know, At first, there were there were not Checks on the actual fitness of the automobiles, But they changed that as well. The car's all have to go in and get checked out before somebody can become another driver. Well, I mean, it's certainly change from the kind of it's almost quite loose seeming ride, hailing service that it used to be way you accepted that it was just going to be a stranger, perhaps rolling up in their car, making a few dollars on the side and taking you around now it's very much much more like a taxi company on duty, said that it'd have increased its safety precautions that said that this verdict is a recognition of its commitment to safety and that it will continue to work constructively. With the regulator. But transport for London laid out a series of floors that it that I had identified last year and perhaps the most car racing complaint from the regulator. It's said that there was a florin uber systems that was allowing unauthorized drivers to upload their photos to another drivers accounts essentially borrow the accounts and make some money. For themselves, and so uber had Bean saying, You know, we've got this sorted. We're doing background checks on the drivers. They've overto have accounted their photos on. And then it turned out there was this huge loophole in the system that meant that wasn't really a promise that was worth more than the paper. It was. It was written in because transport for London said that those uninsured rides involving an unauthorized drivers It says that they carried out more than 14,000 rides before uber fixed this floor so pretty kind of damning indictment from the regulator now at the same time Stream, a half million regular customers. That's a lot. That's a significant proportion of London's population. And so I think this is probably quite helpful for the transport regulator and the mayor of London as well because they had officially kicked to browse and got rid of it. Then you would have some Customer to kind of got attached to ever much cheaper than traditional black cabs here. And so this perhaps works for both sides that the Duke said it has tightened up its safety precautions on for the regulator. It's able to keep you were operating and keep happy that the three million Londoners who use it

Uber spared from London ban despite 'historical failings'
"Uber can continue to operate in London for now last year regulators there decided not to renew the ride hailing giants licensed to operate but yesterday the company won its court appeal of that decision our reporter Sam Schechner has more. Regulator said that they had found instances in which unauthorized drivers swap their phones with others, allowing them to pick up writers themselves, which is obviously a a safety issue. Uber's been operating this whole time in London but under the threat that they could be shut down if their appeals don't win and so they court found that has implemented new safety protocols and while not perfect, it is fit to hold a license in the UK. For Uber London is one of the company's biggest global markets and the news comes as Uber is working to build trust with regulators there and around the world under former CEO, Travis Kalmyk. The company often pushed the regulatory and legal envelope to try and speed up growth and in doing. So they often clashed with lawmakers Kalmyk departed as CEO in two thousand seventeen and left the board the last year. And you may remember that Amazon had to postpone its annual Prime Day sales event earlier this summer at that point, the company was struggling to keep up with the crush of orders as the pandemic set in. Now, we've got a new date for prime day and actually it'll be two days October thirteenth and fourteenth while the event normally helps pull in sales during the lull of summer shopping this year, it could help the company break its fourth-quarter earnings record retail analysts are expecting a big showing because of the combination of Prime Day holiday shopping and the general consumer shift to ECOMMERCE.

The Cat and Mouse Game at the Mexico-U.S. Border
"Paso del Norte Bridge Pass of the North here people crossed from Horace to Al Paso or Paso to warez every day they crossed by car and foot to go to work to school to shop to visit family chaos and clutter hustle and bustle and adjacent train trestle called Black Bridge crosses nearby the scene of the tragic shooting. So many years ago. US border, patrol agent shot, and killed a fifteen year old Mexican boy after that. So what happened at the Rio Grande? Well, the facts are disputed. So we'll tell both sides of the story was talking about the circumstances that brought about the shooting the boy's parents say Sergio was playing a game with friends run across the border to the US side touch defense run back without getting. Caught kind of like a game of chicken. Yeah. I mean what kid hasn't played some version of that Game Kisha branch works for Barra Borderland Connections a nonprofit helping asylum seekers. She spends her days at shelters in El, Paso and shelters in Horace. She works closely with migrants and Border Patrol agents all that to say she's familiar with the area and the dichotomy of working with both sides. There are some kids that that play at the border, the border in New Mexico in an opera. There's a community right beside the border wall. There's a a lot of land and there's a trash pile, and so sometimes, the like moms will go out in like pick things out of the trash Powell for their homes like for household items. There are people that go into that space like where we go to visit the wall there some kids that come up to the wall and they talk to us and we'll just have conversations with them. So. Yeah. Are Kids that play in that area, but they play in the area because it's their backyard. But that's in an opera. What about downtown in the Rio Grande Canal by the bridge where the shooting happened according to my cabdriver it's not generally an area where kids play. Do kids play around the fence around the border. No. They don't let them get near. So that leads us to the other side of the story. Border Patrol says, Sergio was a coyote helping undocumented people illegally cross into the United States. coyotes often use coordinated distraction techniques. Draw the agents attention away from his surroundings victim. An Harrah's was the chief Border Patrol agent out of Paso when the shooting occurred he's now retired we used to call those still do they would call it a sacrificial room. Send someone a across or group appeal across to get the agent to react get the agent to start chasing a group and and what they do is soon as the agent leaves that that high. Position they say whatever they want to send. WHAT THE REAL INTENT It's almost like a diversion. So that happens all the time dangerous game, the game of cat-and-mouse. The boys ran back and forth across the border agent Mesa detained. One of Sergio's friends Sergio ran back to the Mexican side. He hid behind a pillar under the train trestle. That's when agent Mesa shot him in the face. Mesa says Sergio and his friends were throwing rocks, both men, Harrah's and George Gomez. The agent I talked with at the beginning of this episode, Say agents are trained for physical assaults cures, Gomez. Goh, there's different scenario that we run the training. Obviously, I think covered drive away from the air run seek cover and backup call for backup deescalate. Behavior. Here's the thing I don't want to downplay rock-throwing. David. With Iraq agent Mesa may very well have been endangered. Peres. Getting right and he's got a he's hunched over the guy that he was arresting. And you got your back towards man. You're you're you're really at risk even under the high pressure of split-second decision making the use of lethal force here has been criticized bystanders video captured the fatal shooting. In the video Sergio unarmed again, Kisha Branch who works at the border. The story that came out in the news is different from a story that we hear from the agents themselves. So I don't. I don't I have I have no answers Sergio's parents of course, do want answers and a legal remedy. Meaning an award of damages, the family believes the US. Constitution. Guarantees Sergio certain rights now the constitution of the United States setup the framework for the American government and the various rights people have with respect to the government right and the constitution applies to more than US citizens the preamble the very beginning of constitution says we the people of the United States so it doesn't specify Melvin Odi is a constitutional law professor at Faulkner University. which generally talking about in the way, the courts interpret these things into generally talking about the people who comprise the United States. We the people of the United States People Citizens Resident Aliens International Travelers in this country on holiday or for business when you're in the United States, those protections apply to you. But when you go back to wherever your home country is, those objections do not apply United States meaning of course, that's going to be. The Continental United States, but also include The US territories the special maritime jurisdiction of the United States which would be like on the seas. As far as the borders. The constitution applies within our borders and again sort of the territories that we control. Chris Galindo is one of the lawyers who represented the Hernandez family. Here's a clip from a video called Justice for Sergio Audio and Spanish here from a univision news investigation. Dominicano. Wasim Anthem Nisa. He says, can we sue the American government to be sure Hernandez was in Mexico and is Mexican the American government said we can't sue them because this is Mexico. Not The United States we're saying not bullet originated in the United States and they have to pay for the injustice. They did Moses Shindo is guy. I WITH MY NEIGHBORS GET TICKET WINDOW GOES ON WE are saying there are certain laws and certain ways. The Border Patrol agents need to treat human beings Mexican or American according to United States Laws Federal K. K. K. K.. You the Sergio's mom pleads God for help for justice this is going to haunt me until I leave this world. This acronym you can. Okay. Vido. Sergio's parents sued agent Mesa in Federal Court for excessive use of force. They claim Mesa violated Sergio's rights under the fourth and fifth amendments. Now here's a reminder of what those are faulkner professor Melvin Odi. Okay so The Fourth Amendment Fifth Amendment each sort of presents a bundle of rights but the fourth amendment in particular. Presents a list of restrictions on government agents were investigating crimes. Okay. So the prominent one is protection against. Searches and seizures. The court has interpreted seizure to include killing the taking of human. Life. Would have been saying. This was an unreasonable search and seizure the fifth amendment includes several closets. Relevant one, but there's a catch all. Near the end of the Fifth Amendment that says a person can't read deprived of life liberty or property without due process of law. So. In this case, the young man's life was taken. And the Fifth Amendment says, you can't do that without due process of without fundamentally fair legal proceedings. The first time this case worked its way through the court system the fifth US Circuit Court.
