Hot Take:

Well, folks, grab your popcorn because MGM Resorts is rolling the dice in a high-stakes game of 'Sue the Regulator.' You can't make this stuff up: The FTC's boss, Lina Khan, was chilling at MGM when cyber goons played their ransomware roulette with the casino's network. Now MGM is crying foul, claiming Khan's stay at their digital House of Horrors is a conflict of interest. It's like getting food poisoning at a restaurant and then being asked to write a Yelp review. Awkward!
