Good morning. Here’s an interesting stat: Trading volumes at major cryptocurrency exchanges fell more than 40% in June. Maybe buying dogecoin isn’t as fun as buying Yankee Candles in person. |

1 big thing: Trump unloads on Kavanaugh | |||
|
|||
Cover: Henry Holt |
|||
Former President Donald Trump, in a book out today by Michael Wolff, says he is "very disappointed" in votes by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, his own hard-won nominee, and that he "hasn’t had the courage you need to be a great justice."
Between the lines: After the election, as Axios' Jonathan Swan reported in his "Off the rails" series, Trump saved his worst venom for people who he believed owed him because he got them their jobs.
Wolff writes that Trump feels betrayed by all three justices he put on the court, including Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, but "reserved particular bile for Kavanaugh."
"I don’t want anything ... but I am very disappointed in him, in his rulings," Trump said.
Wolff gives an entertaining account of what it was like for the book authors who were given Trump interviews at Mar-a-Lago: It's
called the Living Room, but it's in fact the Mar-a-Lago lobby, a
vaulted-ceiling rococo grand entrance, part hunting lodge, part
Renaissance palazzo. But it is really the throne room. ... He sits, in
regulation dark suit and shiny baby-blue or fire-red tie, on a low chair
in the center of the room, his legs almost daintily curled to the side,
seeing a lineup of supplicants or chatting on the phone, all public
conversations. And why would Trump talk to Wolff, who wrote two earlier bestsellers with devastating accounts of Trump dysfunction?

2. Rising tech hubs: Where the talent pool is growing | |||
Emerging hubs all over the U.S. and Canada are pulling tech talent away from the superstar cities, Erica Pandey writes in our new Axios What's Next newsletter, from an analysis by commercial real estate firm CBRE.

Data: CBRE. Chart: Will Chase/Axios 🇨🇦 Note the brain drain from the U.S. to Canada, as Axios has reported, as Canada took advantage of America's hardline immigration policies in the Trump years to pull away talent. |

Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos are thrusting space into a new era of marketing for mass appeal, Axios Space author Miriam Kramer writes.
Virgin Galactic's webcast Sunday of Richard Branson's flight to the edge of space — instead of highlighting technical details, like NASA launches from Cape Canaveral — was a form of entertainment and advertising.
What to watch: Officials in other nations are taking note of the influence billionaires have on U.S. efforts in space.

The internet has changed a lot since 1996 - internet regulations should too | |||
|
|||
It's been 25 years since comprehensive internet regulations passed. See why we support updated regulations on key issues, including:

On Thursday, the Treasury Department begins monthly payments to families with children, a program created by the COVID stimulus in March, the N.Y. Times' Jason DeParle reports (subscription).
The Treasury Department said 39 million households — covering 88% of U.S. children — will automatically begin receiving monthly payments through the expanded Child Tax Credit. The program is scheduled to expire in a year. Between the lines: "The unconditional payments ... break with a quarter century of policy. Since President Bill Clinton signed a 1996 bill to 'end welfare,' aid has gone almost entirely to parents who work," The Times reports.

5. Internet charges get new scrutiny | |||

With medical bills increasingly under the microscope, Consumer Reports today will begin collecting price data from tens of thousands of customers who share monthly bills for home internet.
"We know anecdotally that where there's competition, in general prices are lower," Jonathan Schwantes, senior policy counsel for Consumer Reports, told Axios.

At least 51 Democrats in the Texas House fled Austin yesterday to try to block Republicans from passing a restrictive new voting law — and set up camp in D.C. until the 30-day special legislative session ends on Aug. 6.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) told KVUE, Austin: "As soon as they come back in the state of Texas, they will be arrested. They will be cabined inside the Texas Capitol until they get their job done." |

Conservative radio talk show host Larry Elder entered California's Sept. 14 recall election, bringing a well-known voice on the political right to a muddled Republican field trying to oust first-term Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom, AP's Mike Blood writes.
Elder said he decided to enter his first campaign after witnessing California's out-of-control homeless crisis, spiking crime rates, looming water and power shortages, and whipsaw coronavirus lockdowns.
Elder brings celebrity to a large GOP field that has no front-runner — former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer; businessman John Cox, who was defeated by Newsom in 2018; state Assemblyman Kevin Kiley; former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner; and former U.S. Rep. Doug Ose. |
