I'm an employment lawyer, representing employees, usually executives and professionals. Contracts, whistleblowers, retaliation, discrimination, compensation.

@BillAckman @realDonaldTrump It's not that Trump isn't an economist. It's that he's a know-nothing demagogogue and grifter who cares nothing about this country. You helped bring this on, and history will not be kind to you and the other enablers.

@VigilantFox @VivekGRamaswamy Because you're a crazy demagogue.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@VivekGRamaswamy You are such a disturbed person.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@RonDeSantis Don't forget self-glorifying MAGA pharma bros with wacky ideas, who would take us back to the 19th Century.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@VivekGRamaswamy Welcome to the 19th Century.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@VivekGRamaswamy What a silly thing to say, but no sillier than all your other hare-brained, naive demagoguery.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@VivekGRamaswamy Of all the inane, childish things you've said, this may be the most ridiculous.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@VivekGRamaswamy Vivek, more mental health treatment would be great, but you Republicans aren't going to vote to fund it. How about an assault weapons ban? Or do you not think guns are involved when people use guns to commit murders? Soft on crime, methinks.

I’m honored to be speaking this weekend about Artificial Intelligence in the Workplace, at the NY State Bar Association’s Labor and Employment Section’s Fall Meeting in Toronto, with my great co-panelists EEOC Commissioner Keith Sonderling, Angelina Evans and George Washington.

@bariweiss @VivekGRamaswamy @Olivia_Reingold He's just another phony demagogue, though he tries to mask it with a big smile. He knows nothing about government and his opinions are ridiculous. On Ukraine, he would deliver Zelensky to Putin.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@RepRaskin I agree completely. He was strong, passionate, caring and very specific about proposals to make life better for working people. Jamie, thank you for your extraordinary work fighting for democracy. I hope you're in good medical hands.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

What a brilliant, refreshing speech that revives true American populism—progressive democratic populism, not right-wing authoritarian fake-populism. Biden sounds Rooseveltian and is taking American politics by storm.

@GOPLeader Kevin, you and the many other craven Congressional enablers and supporters of this delusional, incompetent would-be Mussolini will not be treated kindly by history.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@KensRea Perfectly put.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@DonaldJTrumpJr Spam also accounts for 100% of what was ever said by the former President and demagogue extraordinaire 2016-20.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

@jonathanchait The only difference between DeSantis and Trump is that DeSantis is a smoother demagogue.

[Jonathan Ben-Asher @jonbenasher]

This piece echoes the theme of the book Bullshit Work, by London School of Economics scholar David Graeber, who wrote that many of the jobs people have are pointless, and documented the psychological toll of doing them:
