New: It’s McHenry v. Johnson on passing limits on U.S.-China investment this Congress. “The best path forward is to let the incoming administration write policy,” a McHenry spox tells me. “It would be a missed opportunity for Congress,” Johnson tells me. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024...

Where have all the bankers in Congress gone? The upcoming retirement of Blaine Luetkemeyer leaves few senior Republicans with direct experience in the industry in high-profile positions on any banking-related committees in the House or Senate. www.americanbanker.com/news/where-h...

Well, so much for news links on Twitter! It's now no link at all, just the image and the url. Not a good day for media that have built their entire business around posting their links 1000 times a day on a collapsing site owned by a petulant rich creep. Gee, strange that didn't work out, huh?
