I mean, he's done a good enough job and I'd take him over literally anyone trump wants to appoint.

I'd argue he is. Politics and law aren't deterministic, the rules are flexible and determined by how people interpret them. If it was actually a non issue he wouldn't bother saying anything. He's posturing and trying to make a case so that the admin is less likely to start that fight. Everyone has limited time and resources so making it seem like fucking with the Fed would take a lot of both lowers the odds they try.
No, 9/11 security theatre
Let's not forget that the Concord failed in 2003. I wonder what started happening around then that made that actual flying part a smaller fraction of the overall time spent traveling.....
Even if you can step through a portal and instantaneously get to London from NY, if you still have to go through the rest of the airline process the time savings just isn't that huge.
RIP Kobuleti Airport Runway
No, the people who make DCS world.
I guess we can fuck GD too though, I almost accepted an offer there until I got warned off by a friend. The primes are never fun places to work.
Obligatory fuck eagle dynamics
The western world has a very black and white view of the conflict. The Taiwanese/Chinese view it in a much more complicated way that's a bit hard to grasp as a westerner.
Or not subsidize oil and gas to the tune of ~$20 billion/yr and corn at $2.2 billion/yr and redirect that towards EVs.
Is this loss?

Law is a human construct, it is essentially a consensus structure. You can hold up a piece of paper that says "I can do what I want" and maybe it's even legitimate, but you still need to convince other people of that and our legal structure/precedent puts more emphasis on process than being efficient or fast.
In effect, the law has stopped trump from doing just about everything he wants to sans a few items. Every time he tries to do something he has to fight a bunch of people and that takes up some of his finite time and resources.
Just because he has friends in all the high places doesn't mean everyone else will just jump into line and do exactly what he wants, the more people obstruct the less damage he can do.
