Former President Trump, currently a private citizen, has now chosen to tell TikTok and the other companies affected to just ignore the law because he has the concept of a plan. Ug. That is really not how law works and is absolutely no way to run a country.

Saw Bob Dylan at the Royal Albert Hall last night! It was a great show with many highlights (and a few lows).
I highly recommend seeing him when he is next on tour.

Executive Orders take a lot of work, consensus building, political capital accruing, team assembling, process pushing, diverse expertise collecting, bureaucracy hacking, cooperation, listening, and a ton of Microsoft Word redline versions to get out the door.
