It actually wasn’t that bad, only double what is normal (-6%), rather than potentially triple. It also gives the Fed flexibility for a larger rate cut. The curious thing was the 30+ minute delay in releasing the number. I guess you had to balance the need to keep the number below an important psychological number (1M), and the need for a large enough number to justify a large rate cut, right before an election….
Well, this is clearly trolling, but it is pretty funny. I do long for the days when the media would put out stories saying, “Taylor Swift’s silence is deafening.” Journalists are pack animals, demanding intellectual conformity and validation of their own beliefs.

I have a theory that journalists are mostly failed lawyers and people who couldn’t hack the “rigors” of political science. They appeal to authority in a way that validates their points, or engage in and repeat mind reading, while ignoring actual evidence.
Granholm is Secretary of Energy, because she kept stock in green companies well past the divestment date (and the Free Beacon’s reporting saved her money when the company went under after she divested). I think she promoted EVs for the military and there was an incident where her advance team blocked off all the charging stations while trying to demonstrate the range of EVs.
Buttigieg is Transportation Secretary because he’s been a disaster on supply chain, train disasters, air travel, and went AWOL while promoting a documentary about himself and Chasten.
Lloyd Austin is Defense Secretary because there came a point where he had surgery and no one was in charge. Gen. Miley is head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, ’cause he wants to understand white rage and possibly sold us out to the Chinese.
Julie Su is Acting Secretary of Labor because the Boston guy left, and they wanted to promote someone who oversaw billions of dollars of EDD fraud in California.
Mayorkas is head of Homeland Security because he was impeached for not doing his job.
Haaland is the first Native American secretary of the Interior. No real complaints, other than she has the same last name as an Icelandic striker for Manchester City.
Alex Cardenas is, I believe, Secretary of Education. After running New York City’s public schools into the ground and ahead of a corruption scandal, they promoted him.
Merrick Garland is Attorney General. That’s a cabinet position, right?
Yellen is Treasury Secretary, because she abandoned all semblance of knowing how economics works when she told us inflation was transitory, and out of the blue started going all in on modern monetary theory. No idea why people are still willing to pay for government debt.
I don’t know Commerce or Veteran’s Affairs.

I agree in part. The media is in overdrive in a way that seems to be effective so far. Kamala herself, not her campaign staff, are not masterful in any sense. They don’t have to be, because the journalists and op-ed / “expert” cabal provide cover for her. Obama was a masterful politician, and could deliver a message like no other. He was also ruthless in his use of power.
Kamala hasn’t shown that ability. Heck, how did Biden get elected, except by using Obama’s machine? The legacy media is so enmeshed with the DNC that it is no longer news, but the propaganda wing of the DNC. Biden, Kamala, Katie Hobbs, etc. all know they can hide in the basement and coast to victory.

I had a saying about Jim Harbaugh. He’s kind of an @$$hole, but he’s our @$$hole. I kind of agree with this analysis. It’s a matter of what lens you view people. If you have ever hired (or gone up against) a “bulldog” lawyer, you understand this analogy.
Hey we agree on something! Trump attacking Kemp does nothing to move the needle.

The Minnesota Department of Health reported that 8 infants were born / survived abortion procedures and were basically left to die in 2019 and 2021.

Don’t forget this.
Kathy Tran, the bill sponsor, specifically stated that’s what the bill meant, but the media ran cover for Ralph Northam.
Then there’s whatever was happening at the DC clinic that has been covered up by the media. Quit justifying actual murder (even by your own standards, I suspect), and recognize that Democrats have gone way beyond safe, legal and rare.
I’ll remember this the next time you post anything surreptitiously recorded by one of the observers political campaigns routinely use to get audio or video they can then Rupar into a hit piece.
Please address his point, which is that Kamala Harris hasn’t had to answer a single unscripted question or submitted to a single interview since Pres. Biden withdrew.
You’re being information siloed a la Ben Rhodes’s Iran deal.

Sound familiar? It’s the drum up support for the Iran deal information silo strategy.
Doesn’t believe in Intellectual Property, apparently. Or maybe it belongs to the State.
