Opinion
Trump Was Right to Block a Merger
The attempted Broadcom-Qualcomm deal would have hurt competition.I am more strongly in favor of less patent and copyright protection.
If the phone business is to be competitive it should be open.
If it is not open it must be a regulated monopoly.
Chips which are not commodities must be open and understood.

Was the 2016 Election a Game of ‘Russian Roulette’?
Michael Isikoff and David Corn tell the story of how Russia and its meddling came to dominate a presidential election.I do not want Trump or the Republican party defended.
I also do not want dubious attacks on them.
There is plenty of solidly damning evidence.
Present it without speculation.
Hearsay should not go into court.
It can go into politics.
