At the 2025 TRACE Forum, Charles Cain emphasized that enforcement is “back to basics.” While it appears the SEC no longer has a dedicated FCPA unit and the number of cases may be limited, a meaningful enforcement program is anticipated, with foreign governments stepping in.

White House comms staffer Alex Pfeiffer is crowing that border crossings are down 95% on the *northern* and southern borders. Those northern border crossings were Canadian tourists and shoppers ready to spend money in the US. Check with the US Travel Association to see if they consider this a win.

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

Honestly , who can blame the foreign tourists? I mean, I am a passport-carrying citizen and I am reluctant to leave the US for fear that my phone/social media history will create hassles (or worse!) when I come home. I have never before had reason to fear that...now, I do.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not. An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.
