Government?
AUSA Emily Johnson: The freak-offs were elaborate. They began in 2009 and extended into this year. These freak-offs were arranged with his entourage. The defendant used narcotics so that the victims would continue: ketamine, GHB and others

OK - now at antitrust hearing on FTC lawsuit to try to stop merger of Tapestry ( Coach, Kate Spade) and Capri (Michael Kors) in "accessible luxury" handbag market. Why is US not (also) challenging Capital One - Discover proposal? Inner City Press will live X below Image
FTC lawyer: There is an accessible luxurt market, according to Tapestry own internal documents. The 2023 DOJ Merger Guidelines uses HHI or the Philadelphia National Bank. This proposal violates both, and would have violated the 2010 Merger Guidelines.
FTC lawyer: The court will hear from Mr Kors himself. Michael Kors is not a failing brand. Tapestry wants its data - it would scramble the eggs. This merger would harm working class and middle class women

Trump's lawyer: The Access Hollywood tape should never had come in -
Judge: In some cases, propensity evidence is allowed.
Trump's lawyer: But not here.

Trump's lawyer: Look at Rogers case
