U.S. added 130,000 jobs in January, but labor market growth stalled in 2025 The Bureau of Labor Statistics found that U.S. employers added 181,000 jobs last year, far fewer than the 1.46 million jobs that were added in 2024.

US had almost *no* job growth in 2025.

Hiring numbers were revised down by over a million jobs.

Largest annual revision in over 20 years.

"Just making s**t up" β€” David Roberts sounds off on the EPA "To say members of Congress didn’t anticipate a specific pollutant is just f**king comical."

"To allege that interpreting the Clean Air Act in an open-ended way is some sort of violation of law is ridiculous. I don’t think anybody involved here is confused about the legal merits. Everybody on the right knows that they’re playing Calvinball here and that this is all bullshit." β€” @volts.wtf

The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape.

After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.

And another institute director... She had only been in place for 1 5-year term but no renewal.

The dismantling of the NIH leadership is painful to watch especially with the lack of clear process for replacing them and the history of hiring cronies.

ICE plans to spend $38.3 billion turning warehouses into detention centers ICE plans to spend $38.3 billion converting warehouses into detention centers, according to planning documents, more than the annual budgets of 22 states.

Imagine if even a fraction of what this administration plans to spend on cages went toward housing people.

"Dow 50,000" Sound Nice. Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23.
What does β€œDow 50,000” actually tell youβ€”anything about the economy, or just that a number got bigger? Dow 50,000 is a milestone, not a measurement. The level of the Dow is basically arbitrary: it’s… "Dow 50,000" Sound Nice. Until Justin Wolfers Shows You That U.S. Markets Are Coming 21st Out of 23.

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000.

So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000.

OK. "Regents of the University of California Retirement Plan" should not be invested in the company that flies people to/through torture prison.

This is the real "data driven" corporate culture: as long as you have pie charts and make the right mouth noises, the actual data is just window dressing.

Non-New Yorkers probably see it, but it's very evident to people who live here how much Mamdani actually likes the city and its people, unlike Cuomo and Adams. Such a basic requirement for an elected official, not to have contempt for the people they serve.

As a former public defender who represented thousands of people, I can’t stop thinking about the contrast the Epstein files raise.

I watched 1000s face swift, devastating punishment for far less serious conduct β€” poor, marginalized, & presumed dangerous from the start.

Most of these people are NOT criminals.

Some of these people;
entered legally,
have committed zero crimes,
& have gone through EVERY legal step towards citizenship.

And this is how they’re being treated.

This is what the world sees us doing.
