It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

30 years after arriving in the US, I just resigned from Northwestern and we sold our house.

We are an American family, I became a citizen in 2014, and until recently did not expect to ever leave. But now, this no longer feels like the right place to raise a family and pursue a research career.

Tomorrow marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp and we will gather at the @ecb to honour the memory of Holocaust victims, particularly those deported from the Großmarkthalle in Frankfurt, which forms part of our main building. 1/3

I did a NYT video interview—along with voices from Hungary, Nicaragua, and Russia— about how repression works in authoritarian states.
