AI in recruitment has already moved past the “emerging trend” phase. It is embedded in how we source, screen, rank, and engage talent. The conversation now is less about adoption and more about control: who governs it, how it is audited, and what risks businesses are actually taking on.

Slaughter that the U.S. President can dismiss members of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at will, rather than only for cause, overruling existing precedent regarding independent agencies. This decision of domestic constitutional law could also change the rules governing transfer of personal data from the European Economic Area (EEA, which includes the 27 European Union countries plus Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway) to the U.S.

Plaintiffs in V.O.S. Selections, Inc. v. Trump moved to certify a mandatory class under Rule 23(b)(2) covering all importers whose IEEPA tariff refund claims remain ineligible for processing through the government’s CAPE program.
The U.S. Supreme Court held in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump that IEEPA does not authorize the president to impose tariffs, requiring the government to process and pay refunds with interest on all affected entries.
The government has limited CAPE to entries liquidated within the preceding 90 days,...

About 250 years after the original 13 colonies declared their independence from England, their commercial real estate markets are facing a very different battle: CMBS office delinquencies.
Office distress is not evenly distributed across our nation's first 13 states. Only four states with CMBS office exposure posted delinquency rates below the national average of 16.75%.
Connecticut recorded the highest CMBS office delinquency rate among the states at 52.63%, with 13 properties carrying delinquent loans that have a balance of $730 million....

In this week’s Roar: The end of the USMCA, ocean carriers are increasing capacity, updates to the tariff refund portal, top supply chain technology trends, and amending the Direct Air Waybill Framework.
The U.S. has declared that it won’t extend the USMCA, which will trigger a 10-year countdown for the North American Trade Pact to expire in 2036. The move launches a six-year review at a time when U.S. officials are pushing for tougher regional content rules and new trade protections....

While no tea has been thrown into any harbors just yet, local communities throughout the country have been increasingly pushing back on data-center developments.
In fact, a panelist at Trepp Connect (in NYC) in May noted that community pushback is the greatest challenge that data-center developers are facing today.
Last year, at least 25 data-center projects throughout the country were canceled because of local resistance, a quadrupling of the number of projects that were canceled in 2024, according to Newmark.
Communities oppose...
