I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

For likely the first time in modern history, the Supreme Court decided more cases in fast-tracked, secretive proceedings than in open court. These “shadow docket” decisions have let the Trump admin. bypass lower courts on deportations, ICE stops and more — often with little to no explanation.

Hey elders, Jim Caron of Morgan Stanley is out there using a "hamburger analogy" to say a pre-covid $14 "diner hamburger" that costs $20 today won't come down at all, the answer is more jobs that pay more. Sounds like just work forever and upskill forever to buy a hamburger. What could go wrong?
