This is updated. Keep up. Better yet go to the economy thread and I’ll meet you there.

Claudia Sahm, chief economist at New Century Advisors and a former Federal Reserve economist. “It’s hanging out in a place of very, very slow growth, and that makes the economy vulnerable to a recession.”

The News.

There is already a Epstein thread.

Please stay on topic.

The report comes as both elevated interest rates and Trump’s sweeping tariffs weigh on an economy that depends on consumer spending. For the first time since 2021, there are now more unemployed Americans than there are open jobs — even as the president’s immigration crackdown reduces the supply of workers.

And in a further blow to President Donald Trump, manufacturers continued to shed jobs, with employment down by 78,000 this year despite the administration’s drive to promote investment and growth in that corner of the economy.

U.S. job growth has almost entirely ground to a standstill, according to government data released Friday. The numbers added to growing concerns that President Donald Trump’s policies have pushed the economy toward a problematic mix of low growth and stubborn inflation. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that the U.S. added 22,000 jobs in August, well below expectations for 75,000. Employment data for June was revised to show a net loss for that month, the BLS said, though July’s figures were revised slightly higher. Yep, economy is doing just fine. The BLS said Friday that the unemployment rate ticked higher to 4.3%, a level not seen since Sept. 2017 outside of the Covid-19 pandemic. More than one-quarter of all unemployed workers have now gone without a job for more than six months, the highest level since June 2016.

Rising power prices are becoming a political liability for Republicans as electricity costs outpace inflation. A recent Consumer Price Index report found that electricity prices were rising at double the rate of inflation, having increased 5.5 percent over the last year. And the general public may be starting to take notice. The Trump administration is already seeing it as one — and trying to put the blame on Democrats and renewable energy. I know but, but Biden and more misinformation. President Trump has taken a similar tack, blaming renewables even though a greater supply of renewable power would actually be expected to bring costs down ([Hidden Content]). On Truth Social this week, he decried “ridiculous, corrupt politician approved ‘’windmills.’

The Department of Justice acting deputy chief was caught on a hidden camera saying that the government will "redact every Republican" from an Epstein client list Why it matters: The O'Keefe Media Group, a far-right media organization, secretly recorded acting deputy Joseph Schnitt's comments and published them on Wednesday, in a move that represents just how large a rift the Epstein case has created between President Trump administration and his MAGA base. They'll redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people," he told the reporter, who was undercover during the encounter, according to the video. In the video, he also called Attorney General Pam Bondi a yes person," adding that she "wants whatever Trump wants." What they're saying: In a statement addressed to the DOJ's acting director, Schnitt said that he had no idea he was being recorded and that he met the O'Keefe reporter — who he said was pretending to be an au pair — on Hinge. Driving the news: Schnitt also made comments in the video about the DOJ's relationship with Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who was recently moved to a lower-security prison following her interview with a Justice Department official. Maxwell's transfer "is against BOP policy because she's a convicted sex offender," Schnitt said in the video. "The DOJ's offering her something to keep her mouth shut." Maxwell's transfer was controversial and potentially against Bureau of Prisons policy sex offenders must be in at least a low-level security prison unless they receive a waiver, and she was moved to a minimum-security one. In the video, O'Keefe questions the Justice Department's level of transparency, pointing out that the DOJ and FBI claim their investigation into Epstein revealed "no incriminating 'client list'" despite top FBI officials' previous assertions to the contrary

New Orleans is dangerous city. Has he said anything about the national guard going there? He is not enforcing laws it’s authoritarianism.

Nothing to doge. I don’t agree with the things you post and they are lies but that is my opinion and I see nothing wrong with you opinions. I’m not going out of my way to prove what is available.
