The granting of the request for a special master
The granting of the request for a special master -- a step the DOJ vehemently opposed -- is a significant complication for prosecutors since it means they will be prevented from reviewing material taken from Trump's residence for now.

The comparatively mundane task of finding an official to fulfill the role will be difficult since filings in t...

Waymo, the self-driving subsidiary of Google's
Waymo, the self-driving subsidiary of Google's parent company, stopped using the term "self-driving" in 2021, saying that misuse by other automakers was giving the public a false impression of its capabilities. Waymo began referring to its robotaxis as "fully autonomous." Waymo, which operates robotaxis in the Phoenix area, does not need a human in the driver's seat to ensure safe operation. The California DMV's actions are officially limited to the state, but the impact could ...

When you think about a shrinking economy, what comes to mind?
When you think about a shrinking economy, what comes to mind? Factories shutting down. A wave of job losses and few open positions. Huge financial losses that batter most industries.
