Emory University Economics professor Caroline Fohlin's arrest video was bad in a vacuum but seeing what precedes it makes it even worse.

Dark times.

Sen. Sanders’ family was killed in the Holocaust. He dedicates his every moment to realizing tikkun olam.

His commitment to protecting innocents in Gaza stems FROM his Jewish values.

He and many other Jewish leaders deserve better than to be treated this way. This is shameful.

The FTC rule banning non-competes is expected to result in:
- $400B in wage increases

Republican Commissioners voted against it. The Chamber of Commerce is suing to block it.

The IBEW let us use their union hall for our organizing committee. And I love this video with the IBEW flag behind me, as I got my start in the IBEW as an apprentice, 35 years ago!! Union Solidarity!!

The entire “antisemitism on campus” discourse is absolute libel against these wonderful young people committed to Palestinian liberation.

We - with good reason - spend hours trashing Elon Musk for destroying Twitter. But I'd say that Sundar Pichai and Prabhakar Raghavan deserve a hundred times more bile for destroying Google Search, and have casually harmed society so that they can make Google over $100bn a year.

Horrific that Google will hide California news stories from some of its users to put pressure on state lawmakers not to pass a bill that would require it to pay journalists whose content it’s been profiting from for free for decades. latimes.com/entertainment-… via Wendy Lee
