Prediction What #Trump will try to do:

  • Declare #National #Emergency
  • Limit accessible voting tools
  • Create a narrative of fraud (to contest unfavorable results in advance)

Even if the measures are blocked, litigations will last months. Even if the #Courts block Trump orders, a phase of chaos and controversy remain. Some Trump order will be temporarily in effect, awaiting legal courses and appeals. Trump will use the 'emergency' to contest or not recognize election results.

9News | 'Far better off': Aussie bosses warn of mass exodus to NZ and USA by 9News AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Australian business leaders warn that the federal government’s decision to scrap the 50 percent capital‑gains‑tax discount will trigger a “mass exodus” of entrepreneurs and investors to New Zealand and the United States, where the tax environment is friendlier. Allan Blood has already shifted his proposed $3 billion coal‑to‑fertiliser plant from Victoria to Southland, NZ, praising the government’s support and even considering listing his company on the NZX. Similarly, Bill Ovenden of The Lad Collective says the change will stifle Australia’s start‑up culture, which has produced firms like Atlassian and Canva, and predicts many founders will relocate to avoid up to 47 percent CGT. Other founders, such as Melbourne’s Matthew Elsey now based in the US, echo the sentiment, noting that the new tax regime makes success in Australia far harder to achieve and could divert billions of dollars offshore.

9News | Bargain bust-up: Court to rule on Coles' alleged 'fake' discounts by 9News AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. In a landmark Federal Court case, Justice Michael O'Bryan will decide today whether Coles deliberately misled shoppers with its “Down Down” price campaign, which the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission alleges involved briefly raising prices before discounting them to a level still higher than the original. The ACCC identified hundreds of such products, including a Nature’s Gift dog food that was promoted at $4.50 after a short‑term increase to $6. Coles argues the discounts were genuine and reflect normal inflation‑driven price rises, while the watchdog claims the retailer disguised price hikes as promotions. Consumer‑law experts say a ruling against Coles could bring massive fines and force a change in how Australian supermarkets market discounts, and will also influence a similar pending case against Woolworths.

9News | Banks were quick to pass on rate hikes – just not for savers by 9News AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. After the Reserve Bank of Australia lifted the cash‑rate target to 4.35 %, the four major banks quickly announced higher borrowing costs but have been slower to pass the increase on to savers. So far only Westpac has confirmed a rise, offering a 5.75 % ongoing rate on its Spend & Save account for customers aged 18‑34 who meet monthly bonus conditions, while its base rate remains unchanged for others. AMP already provides a “no‑strings‑attached” rate of 5.10 %, and Macquarie will raise its condition‑free account to 5.00 % from 22 May. The Commonwealth Bank, NAB and ANZ say their savings rates are under review and, based on past behaviour, are likely to pass on only part of the hike or impose strict eligibility criteria. Analysts note that after the March increase, bonus‑linked rates rose modestly (about 0.28 pp) while base rates barely moved, and that delaying or limiting pass‑throughs helps the banks protect profit margins—profits that recently hit a collective $43 billion pre‑tax, placing them among Australia’s most lucrative companies.
