Breaking News: Trader Joe’s Is Suing Its Workers’ Union For An Incredibly Silly Reason

But it kept him under a contract, worth more than $15 million a year, that prohibited him from taking a job with a rival.Under the old rules of the legacy media, Mr. Carlson would have been off the air and out of sight through the end of the 2024 election, when his contract runs out.
