It has been a little while since the last THB Insider. The world has certainly been generous with material for THB. Today I share a wide range of interesting stuff that has recently crossed my desk.

But first, a quick note — Earlier today I was pleased to see THB and AEI referenced on X/Twitter by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Specifically, the Secretary shared my recent discussion here at THB of the retraction of Kotz et al. by Nature. As a policy scholar, it is always rewarding to see good work cited in policy discussions, regardless of party or politician. Secretary Bessent joins with Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), and other politicos of both parties, in favorably citing THB.

With that, let’s get to it . . .

THB paid subscribers have access to all THB Insider posts and other good stuff.
