Will Meta Pay the Price for 'Buy or Bury' Strategy at Antitrust Trial? | Pivot

Meta is facing a landmark antitrust trial that could force the company to spin off Instagram and WhatsApp. Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway dig into the case’s origins, what’s at stake for Big Tech, and whether Meta’s empire might finally face real consequences. They also unpack Trump’s erratic tariff policy and its ripple effects on retailers, and why China seems to be winning the trade war, so far. Plus, the White House's defiance of the Supreme Court, Blue Origin’s all-female flight, and Bill Maher’s dinner with Trump.
