"'This will be the end of New York City as we know it' is how his deep-pocketed clients are reacting to the prospect of Mamdani winning in November" bloomberg.com/news/articles/… @sridinats @nahmias

“a goal of autofiction, which often attends closely to small details, is to cultivate exquisite awareness in the reader. And it’s true that, while reading ‘Next to Heaven,’ I sometimes thought I could feel individual cells in my body trying to die.” newyorker.com/books/page-tur…

Under Trump, agencies are reconsidering not only Biden rules, but also older regulations that had been left intact during Trump's first term, like this one extending wage and overtime rules to home care workers: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

JJosh Eidelson@josheidelson · Jun 10

Scoop: Trump Labor Dept. “intends to reconsider” Obama-era rule meant to extend minimum wage and overtime to millions of home care workers. bloomberg.com/news/articles/… In a footnote in a court filing, DOL said it may "wish to pursue rulemaking... to take a different policy approach."
