Can anything be read into the SCOTUS taking up the case on Trump's tax returns? My gut is that they just want to rule on an important case, but I'm no expert.

After we get atmospheric CO2 levels reasonably down, and maybe hire some unicorns to finally find the arc during a two hour History channel special, it might be nice if we could figure out a way to unchain the 80% or whatever of retail sales that HAS to happen during a single holiday. Trump hat sales ain't cutting it.

Yeah, I guess if they had not taken the case it would've just been... the end? Would that just mean the immediate release of all documents?

If SCOTUS actually rules against Trump here does he have any more cards to play to delay the game even further?

Cool, keep or spend it in June or July. Put on a new roof. Buy a bus pass. Pay the bills. Invest in your teeth when you can. Pay the rent. Whatever.

Down 1.2% since 2017 is kinda big for a small retailer with expanding overheads that maybe wants to insure and even pay employees. Enough even to lead to more WalMart razor-thin employee cost cutting too. The constant wild dips and valleys are always fun for long-term planning too.
