Trump canceling GDP report comes under scrutiny The canceled release of the third-quarter GDP advance estimate has fueled speculation about the state of the economy.

Trump has canceled the GDP Report for the first time in history. He has also cancelled the Jobs Report. He is trying to conceal the weak economic performance his policies have caused .

MAGA is seeing Trump do what Trump does -- represent his self-interest.

On election night, he thought they maybe still had a chance to prevent Mamdani's win. He used "tough man words".

It's now apparent to him that Mamdani will be mayor and he has big property there. Time to be nice!

My teenagers can’t get a ticket to the Running Man remake on their own, but sure, they’re consenting adults when it comes to sex.

Glad someone is finally talking about this. The hemp industry in America is a $70B industry that employs over 300k people. The whole industry just got nuked overnight

In 2018, Archbishop Coakley β€œpublicly supported an ardent critic of Pope Francis, Italian Archbishop Carlo Maria ViganΓ², who was later excommunicated for stances that were deemed divisive.” (From the AP article) Not mentioned in the AP article are Vigano’s ties to Steve Bannon & Mike Flynn.

Good fucking morning to everyone except Donald Trump's lawyers, who filed an emergency appeal to the Supreme Court to block a ruling requiring the government to fully fund food assistance for 40 million Americans. Meanwhile, the president’s out golfing this weekendβ€”doing nothing to end the shutdown.

Halloween is such a perfect holiday to reground yourself in your community. Just throngs of different people wandering the neighborhood with their kids appreciating strangers for helping create something magical. This is what most of us crave.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Arizona announces they are suing Mike Johnson for refusing to swear in Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva.

She is the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

EMERGENCY MEDICAID REIMBURSES HOSPITALS FOR CARE TO UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE BY LAW HOSPITALS CANNOT TURN AWAY ANYONE IN AN EMERGENCY.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

I don’t know who needs to be reminded of this, but the US military is meant to be apolitical, loyal to the US Constitution and independent of any party or political movement. It’s not a President’s personal militia, campaign prop, or loyalty test.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/
