And the most recent jobs report has many hints that ICE is indeed having that desired effect: in an otherwise stagnant or contracting labor market, there was job group in leisure and hospitality, private health care, and (somewhat less) construction — all job markets with a concentration of immigrant labor.
I am not an economist and this is not a proper analysis — grain of salt, please! — but a quick skim of these stats is at least superficially consistent with a good chunk of current job growth coming from decreased immigrant participation in the labor force.

Weekend #Plankton Factoid 🦠🦐
The new Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite is crazy accurate. It can measure ocean altimetry to a mm, imaging internal waves and small sub eddies (rotating mixing zones). Tiny changes in height happen when water swirls (try it in a sink) with greater height at the edges due to centripetal force. These may be even more important for temperature &a…
