Fox News: Federal judge blocks Biden labor protections for foreign farmworkers
A federal judge in Kentucky has blocked new protections for H-2A visa foreign farmworkers, siding with local farmers and Republican attorneys general. The judge ruled that the Biden administration overstepped by attempting to grant collective bargaining rights without Congressional approval.
The new rules aimed to prevent employer retaliation against H-2A workers but were deemed an unauthorized expansion of rights. This decision follows a previous injunction in Georgia, which already halted the rules in 17 states.
The Federalist: Trump 'Wrecking' The Government Is A Good Thing
Jonathan Capehart criticized President-elect Trump’s cabinet selections, suggesting they aim to disrupt Washington's status quo. However, polls reveal that a significant majority of Americans feel the country is on the wrong path and desire substantial change, indicating a disconnect between D.C. and the public.
The economic divide between Washington and the rest of the U.S. is stark, with federal employees earning significantly more than the average American household. This disparity, coupled with federal agencies' inefficiency and lack of accountability, has led many to call for a complete overhaul of the bureaucratic system.
Fox News: Stop funding the woke and the stupid
The new Trump administration and Republican leaders have an opportunity to shift away from identity politics and restore merit-based systems in government and education. The decline of meritocracy began in the late 1970s due to legal rulings against standardized testing, leading to less qualified hires.
As the Supreme Court has recently reversed rulings on affirmative action, states like Florida are taking steps to combat "woke" ideologies in public institutions. The call to action is for leaders to defund radical programs and implement merit-based accountability to ensure a prosperous future.
The Federalist: SCOTUS Should Nuke Mexico's Lawsuit Against U.S. Gun Makers
Former Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's policies continue to affect the U.S., particularly through ongoing drug and human trafficking. His government's lawsuit against American gun manufacturers seeks $10 billion for alleged complicity in cartel violence, challenging U.S. tort law.
López Obrador's administration has been criticized for its inaction against cartels and for suggesting that the U.S. should address its own opioid crisis. The lawsuit appears to be a diversion from his record on public safety, as Mexico grapples with escalating cartel violence. The Supreme Court should dismiss the case under the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act.

The Federalist: How To Protect Inventors From Big Companies Stealing Their Ideas
Over 120 corporations have signed a letter supporting the Litigation Transparency Act, which would impose strict disclosure requirements on patent litigation funding. This legislation could disadvantage small inventors by increasing legal costs and prolonging court proceedings, benefiting larger companies.
The proposed changes are seen as a way for wealthy corporations to maintain their advantage in patent disputes, often resorting to tactics of "efficient infringement." Existing court rules already provide adequate mechanisms for addressing conflicts of interest without imposing burdensome disclosure requirements that could jeopardize the ability of small businesses to defend their patents.
