Yes, this imo is the right frame for thinking about this. What’s at stake in the conflict between Trump and the Fed is not the value of central bank independence, but the value of independent agencies in general.

It's a strange day to have published this EXCELLENT piece by Ava Ayers on how administrative fixes are sometimes more effective than political spectacle in protecting undocumented NYers. That said, it's no less urgent/relevant in light of today's tragedy

Big tech shouldn’t be able to weaponize your personal data to jack up consumer prices and low-ball worker pay for people who don’t have other options.
