Seems pretty clear that, rather than marking a turn away from neoliberalism, Trump’s “tariffs” were more like sanctions, used to bludgeon countries into accepting trade deals that are even more predatory. A point @ddayen.bsky.social made here.

I know there's a lot going on but I've been working on this one for a bit. It's about an atrocious and widespread practice in the construction industry that cruelly burdens workers and shields bosses from accountability.

A construction boss told a worker to start an LLC. That worker didn't realize the boss was claiming him as a subcontractor. Now that worker is on the hook for $18k in employer taxes to the IRS, even though he was functionally a WORKER. These schemes are common. My latest prospect.org/labor/2025-0...

The construction industry has developed elaborate schemes that shield bosses who deny workers their rightful pay and benefits. These schemes involve shell companies, labor brokers, and sometimes outright fraud. And workers end up paying a terrible price. My latest. prospect.org/labor/2025-0...

When asked about the Yemeni people killed in the bombing that was discussed in the Signal group chat, Jeffrey Goldberg was dismissive, and eager to change the subject. I argue this orientation to US killings is why he was in the group chat to begin with.

Jeffrey Goldberg dismissing Yemeni deaths is why he was in the group chat to begin with. I wrote about Goldberg's callous disregard for the people killed by the bombings at the center of his blockbuster story, and what this says about US media.

Awesome to see this kind of action. Clerical, technical, healthcare, and grad student workers rallying to tell UMN don’t comply with the Trump admin, don't engage in political repression, and don’t allow ICE to round up students.

Thinking about all the US-made bombs that have hit schools, factories, warehouses, wedding parties and homes in Yemen since March 2015 and how there was never any US media fixation—in fact, hardly any press attention at all. Which is to say, unjust US war is the primary scandal, or ought to be.

My biggest takeaway from the leaked signal thread is that the people who helm the biggest military the world has ever seen are incredibly glib and disrespectful about the people they kill, and talk about green-lighting bombings like they're ordering takeout at McDonald's.
