Elon Musk's social media platform X has sued a group of advertisers, alleging that a "massive advertiser boycott" deprived the company of billions of dollars in revenue and violated antitrust laws. The company formerly known as Twitter filed the lawsuit Tuesday in a federal court in Texas against the World Federation of Advertisers and member companies Unilever, Mars, CVS Health and Orsted. It accused the advertising group's initiative called the Global Alliance for Responsible Media of helping to coordinate a pause in advertising after Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion in late 2022 and overhauled its staff and policies.

A Democratic group is rolling out a new $140 million ad campaign that aims to chip away at Donald Trump's support among rural voters, one of his most loyal voting blocs. The ads from American Bridge 21st Century will begin airing Monday in the northern battleground states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. The group is targeting swing voters living in exurban and rural areas in smaller media markets that are less saturated with political advertising. They hope to reach voters, especially women, who may be on the fence and could decide the outcome of November's election.

President Joe Biden has laced into Donald Trump over a failed project that was supposed to bring thousands of new jobs into southeastern Wisconsin. Now on that site, construction will start on a new data center from Microsoft, whose president credits the Biden administration's economic policies. For Biden, it offers another point of contrast between him and Trump, who had promised a $10 billion investment by the Taiwan-based electronics giant Foxconn that never came. Biden said Wednesday that "Foxconn turned out to be just that — a con." Republicans respond that Wisconsin voters have been hurt by inflation under the Democratic president's watch. Foxconn says its current Wisconsin operation "greatly contributes" to the company.
