Another day, another Starbucks fleeing San Francisco—the fourth closure in seven months while officials desperately try to spin 'declining crime rates.' Watch as we expose how corporate America is quietly voting with its feet, abandoning neighborhoods where bathroom-less coffee shops tell the real story officials don't want you to acknowledge. From unionization threats to sidewalk chaos featuring 'whacked-out homeless people with swords,' we break down why Starbucks is choosing to close decades-old locations despite community protests. When will San Francisco's leadership connect their failed policies with the emptying downtown storefronts that once generated their tax revenue? Is anyone surprised that businesses prefer locations where customers don't have to step over encampments to get their morning coffee? Subscribe and share this video to help expose the real consequences of public policies that politicians claim are working—while empty storefronts tell a different story.

Six Flags/Cedar Fair's first post-merger casualty is Six Flags America, erasing 70 full-time and 700 seasonal jobs and $3.5 million in local tax revenue—freeing capital for “marquee” investments elsewhere. At the same time, Marriott's Gaylord resorts are turning their glass atriums into mini-comic-cons with a DC-branded summer slate, headlined by a 17,500-sq-ft lantern trail of 24-ft heroes, to lure families who might skip a theme-park trip. Philip and Scott ask whether strategic portfolio pruning and shoulder-season IP pivots are the new survival play as rising rates have already killed Sacramento's planned $300 million Elk Grove zoo.

The General Services Administration has eliminated its 18F program, an internal team of tech consultants and engineers that develops open-source tools to improve digital services across the federal government. The announcement, which came over the weekend, is the latest in the Trump administration's ongoing efforts to slash the federal workforce. The move was foreshadowed weeks ago when Elon Musk, who's become become the figurehead for the Trump administration's slashing of government programs and the federal workforce, tweeted that the decade-old program had been “deleted.” Early Saturday morning, Thomas Shedd — a mechanical engineer and former Tesla employee recently appointed as the director of GSA's Technology Transformation Services, which houses 18F — announced the program had been eliminated as part of the ongoing reduction-in-force effort, according to an email viewed by FedScoop. A GSA spokesperson also confirmed the terminations to FedScoop on Saturday, writing in an email that members of the 18F office were notified that they had been identified as part of GSA's Reduction in Force and reorganization plan and were being separated from federal service. The top-10 highest-paid consulting firms contracting with the federal government are set to make “$65 billion in fees” in 2025 and beyond, the General Services Administration says. But according to the agency's acting leader, that “needs to, and must, change.” GSA acting Administrator Stephen Ehikian issued last week a memo, obtained by FedScoop, calling for the termination of contracts with those top-contracted consultants: Deloitte Consulting LLP, Accenture Federal Services LLC, General Dynamics IT, Booz Allen Hamilton, Leidos, Guidehouse, Hill Mission Technologies Corp., Science Applications International Corp., CGI Federal and IBM. Ehikian wrote in the memo dated Feb. 26 sent to senior procurement officers: “Consistent with the goals and directives of the Trump administration to eliminate waste, reduce spending, and increase efficiency, the U.S. General Services Administration has taken the first steps in a Government-wide initiative to eliminate non-essential consulting contracts.” By March 7, agencies are asked to provide a list of contracts with the 10 firms that they intend to terminate as well as those they will maintain.

On February 7, 2025, Swiss media outlet Bilanz reported that Rolex is shutting down the Carl F. Bucherer watch brand, which it acquired in 2023 as part of its purchase of Bucherer – the global watch retailer. The decision to shutter any watch brand, particularly one dating back to 1888 with significant in-house watchmaking is major news. And it's a story with broader implications for the watch industry at large. So with that in mind, on this special episode of Openwork we're delving into the details and taking a look at what it all means. Hosted by Asher Rapkin and Gabe Reilly, co-founders of Collective Horology, Openwork goes inside the watch industry. You can find us online at collectivehorology.com.

The U.S. Agency for International Development, known as USAID, has fallen in the crosshairs of the Trump administration and Elon Musk's government efficiency push, sending chills through the humanitarian world and drawing criticism from Democratic lawmakers and nonpartisan foreign service workers.

Yasmeen Altaji gives a round-up of today's trends
A beloved family-run Peruvian restaurant in Concord, California, is closing its doors after a lawsuit alleging gender discrimination over "Ladies Night" discounts drove the business into financial turmoil. The restaurant, which offered discounted drinks for women on Wednesdays, was targeted under California's Civil Rights Act, which prohibits gender-based promotions. Struggling with rising costs and razor-thin margins, the restaurant faced insurmountable legal fees and settled out of court. This incident highlights growing concerns about overregulation and the stifling impact of equity laws on small businesses. Critics argue such policies disproportionately harm entrepreneurs while failing to achieve meaningful progress. The case reflects broader dissatisfaction with California's progressive policies, prompting many to question their long-term economic and social viability. For some, this signals yet another reason to join the exodus to states with business-friendly environments like Texas and Florida.
Chicago is a city of pubs and taverns with a robust drinking culture. During the holiday season, that might mean sipping on some warm Swedish glögg, or, as we heard in our last episode, grabbing a Tom and Jerry at Miller's Pub. But what about a Chicago-specific cocktail? “People really want us to have a cocktail,” said Liz Garibay, executive director of the Beer Culture Center. “It's like, you go to New Orleans and there's a Sazerac. You go to New York, there's Manhattan.” So is there a quintessential Chicago cocktail? Curious City host Erin Allen talks to Garibay as well as Greg Shutters, owner of Cohassett Punch Liqueur to see what they think. Garibay says either way, the city's drinking culture is shaped by its immigrant and working class roots. We talk with Garibay and Shutters about Chicago's drinking scene, past and present.
In today's Daily Fix:Sony has closed Firewalk Studios, the developer behind the ill-fated live-service shooter Concord. The closure comes after the disastrous launch of the game which saw concurrent players fall to the single digits practically from Day 1. The game was pulled soon after. In other news, BioWare is assuring fans that Mass Effect will not undergo a visual style change like sister IP Dragon Age did. Speaking of assuring fans, Machinegames is saying Indiana Jones will not hurt dogs in the upcoming video game, The Great Circle. This is despite Machinegames' previous track record of dogs in first-person games (see their last few Wolfenstein games). And finally, Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone has finally earned all achievements in his game, Stardew Valley. So if you haven't 100%'d the game, don't worry, it took the creator about eight years to do so.

On this special episode of Openwork, we discuss Hodinkee's recent announcement that they're shutting down their retail business – with the exception of limited editions – to refocus on editorial. This is big news that touched off an immediate and widespread response within the watch community. It also has significant implications for the watch industry at large, reshaping Hodinkee's role within it and more broadly putting magnifying glass on the turbulent landscape of both watch media and retail.
