Heck yeah, @arindube.bsky.social helps monopsony* and labor market power breakthrough into informed layperson discourse!
* BSKY spell check wants to change the word monopsony to monopoly, and that just proves how needed Arin's book, which is pitched to a broad audience, is!

WARREN: That's not my question. Are you refusing to tell us if you have investments in vehicles set up by Jeffrey Epstein?

KEVIN WARSH: Those assets will be sold if I'm confirmed

ICE detained more than 70 Minnesota children, data reveals Immigration officials detained more than 70 Minnesota children between Dec. 1 and March 10, a Sahan analysis of court records and federal deportation data shows.

This was never about the worst of the worst.

We have continually demanded answers about how many of our children were taken into federal detention. Trump’s DHS has continually refused to give us information.

Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.

Trump administration begins refunding more than $166bn in tariffs Claims system launches months after supreme court ruled Trump had no legal authority to impose tariffs

So you and I and everyone else are in effect now refunding American corporations for import tariffs, although we paid for most of them in the form of higher prices — which they won’t now lower because they have monopoly power to keep prices high.

The Art of the Deal.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October.

Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year.

Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce.

Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

Changes to Virginia labor bill could gut worker rights, unions warn Amendments proposed by Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger could delay collective bargaining and impact the makeup of a labor oversight board, among other changes.

Unions lobby against VA governor’s changes to labor bill. "...Spanberger wants to delay collective-bargaining rights for local govt. employees... until 2030. ....[and] give governor-appointed members of the Public Employee Relations Board a much larger role..." www.courthousenews.com/changes-to-v...

Ok I absolutely recommend making yourself a bird bag. Excellent weekend project. Extremely funny if you add legs. The pattern is pretty well done, I wish some steps included more detailed diagrams or photos.
