America is becoming a giant nursing home. And MAGA is hell-bent on reversing our primary source of population growth—immigration. What happens to an aging nation with a declining population?
For years, the U.S. labor market has been undergoing a structural transformation. As jobs in manufacturing have receded, slowly but steadily, the health care industry has more than replaced them, representing a third of all employment growth over the past year.
How Health Care Remade the U.S. Economy
Medicine is now the nation’s largest employer, but its growth may be slowing.

The @newyorker.com has a great new profile of fascist ideologue Curtis Yarvin / Mencius Moldbug, who's been praised by JD Vance.
Yarvin insisted on wearing a bike helmet in college classes, and was dubbed "helmet-head" by his classmates. And it gets crazier! www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Trump’s doctors will tell you that the hardest part of giving him a colonoscopy is working around Ted Cruz.
So when Lyin’ Ted has “concerns” about something Trump does, you can be sure there is trouble in MAGA-land and the magic is wearing off.

This is interesting. If bonds sold off after the tariff retreat, you’d just assume it was all the people who fled to bonds when the market tanked, running back when the market rose.

“The penguins have treated us very badly…”
The Australian territory of Heard Island in the Southern Ocean is unoccupied by humans and had zero trade with the United States last year, according to the latest available U.S. figures.
That makes the 10 percent tariff imposed Wednesday moot.

Trump’s tariffs hit even remote islands. One is mainly home to penguins.
Heard Island and McDonald Islands, an Antarctic territory of Australia, is on the list of reciprocal tariffs — as is a remote isle near Greenland.

Let’s be clear, the reason Trump is so keen on Greenland is that he’s pulling out of NATO in order to ally with Russia. Which in his mind means Greenland is in ‘enemy’ hands with Denmark.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

It would be amazing if the 10,000 CF affiliates could form a co-op and buy the company. A CrossFit by and for the community is what it really always should have been.
Could you facilitate such an effort, perhaps in coordination with some of the top CrossFit athletes?
