Does the DOJ's opinion, binding or not, actually matter with respect to this though? Impeachment is solely the prerogative of the House, and more broadly Congress. I don't see how the DOJ as part of the executive branch can thus bind the House at all in this.

(Also worth noting that Impeachment technically isn't a legal matter -- it is a political process.)

But his support for riling the base up was of the Tea Party, not MAGA, flavour.

That seems like a distinction without a difference.

This used to be the only reason, however in the last couple years we're starting to see streaming services remove their original programming (owned and produced by themselves/their parent or affiliate studios). Seemingly just so they don't have to pay more in royalties.

Obviously it doesn't apply to .com or .xyz, but in addition to the concerns about being locked in to Cloud flare's name servers, they don't support some gTLDs right now.

It's not a huge deal. He's not really a flight risk -- the Secret Service protective detail is on him 24/7.

From what I've read this Marcel LUX III SARL company is also just a holding company under EQT. So nothing major has changed there.

I mean, Canonical is also privately held and not publicly listed. And it looks like this is the same private equity firm that owned SUSE fully before taking them public. (Marcel LUX III SARL is a holding company owned by EQT Private Equity.)
