I know I'm in a bubble, and I know we're still losing jobs (it takes a while to turn things around, but I did expect the bleeding to slow faster), but in my fields I cannot see it at all. What jobs are we losing? My company is hiring guys for the first time since 2021 and they're all Americans for the first time since I started. And people are leaving for other places left and right, so they're hiring at other companies in my industry too..
Who, exactly is losing jobs? Tech? Service?

The issue is who else they implicate and why Trump is hiding it for them. Covering for pedos is a bad thing. Dems are hard set on linking him but the base wants to know what elites raped kids and to remove them from society.

I get that but trust me that is NOT what they're running with. They are running around like they just proved without a doubt Trump was fucking kids

Despite the unredacted document being in this slew of several thousand pages of emails. It's so fucking scummy how oversightdems released THREE EMAILS out of hundres talking about Trump and censored a name that would have completely changed the ENTIRE NARRATIVE regarding the emails. I seriously hate these people so fucking much.

That apparently this was all for show and the democrats are now concerned about the trove of documents already leaked.

Amusing if true.

Just like the last times they voted on it that totally weren't political theater and porkfests.

Yeah, I'm not against it from what I read so far, but I understand why a lot of people don't like it, as it doesn't help first time home buyers at all.

It actually does help new buyers because it frees up inventory. Very fucking few people who bought at 3% are looking to upgrade, because no matter their means their rate is going to more than double. Unless you are moving for work, a divorce or are getting a new place without a loan, no one is selling. But if I can take my 3% and apply it to a new 5-bedroom, now my 3 bedroom is available for a 35 year old couple with 2 kids.

There are a couple different schemes for portable rates, and what I describe may not be what is pitched, but they absolutely do benefit the lower end of the market.

Rumors are that he is running cover for Israel as a deal: he sweeps it under the rug as long as they comply with the cease fire.

Some very large employers. These three roundups came up in the first couple of results.

Last night the plaintiffs (the unions) filed a short supplementary update:
1762612462280.png

Confessing that they're talking with the defense (the Trump admin) and will update further as needed by Monday. (Not apologizing for their bullshit nonsense of contacting defense after business hours in a different time zone and flipping out the court about it, though.)

The Clinton-appointed elderly lady judge who is doing the bidding of the unions without question -- seriously click through my previous posts, she literally just accepts everything the union lawyer says in filings and hearings and orders it -- received this update, but unwilling to have her fun spoiled, issued an order anyway:
1762612657753.png
1762612689349.png

It is to be expected that the unions will continue to accuse the various government agencies of perfidy and mendacity and lying and hiding shit and being meanies as they have been this whole time. The judge already is clearly of a mind to believe whatever accusations they put forth. Currently we have a Zoom hearing scheduled for this coming Friday, but I'm predicting it will be pushed up to earlier in the week by some sort of bullshit emergency motion by the unions.

For reasons that are unclear to me, the government does not appear to have filed any appeal in this case to a higher court for a stay of the lunatic judge's TRO or preliminary injunction. 🤷‍♂️

Meanwhile, the RIFs case out in California continues to drag on (reductions in force, firings of government employees during/because of the shutdown, with the extremely-well-funded unions suing the Trump administration). Today, both sides filed a joint status update as ordered...

1762993814384.png
And while it is not a lengthy document, it still manages to cram plenty of the same union bitching into the relatively-brief filing. "The agencies are lying, they are hiding RIFs, they are misconstruing the court's orders," yadda yadda. Evidently the defendants (the numerous government agencies) have promised to file a buttload of additional declarations today (so far, they have not) to assuage some of the unions' concerns. Regardless of what they will file or have already filed, the unions remain adamant that the defendant agencies are continuing to hide RIFs information that they have supposedly been planning, discussing, thinking about, and/or fantasizing about in their hot tubs in violation of the Clinton-appointed lady judge's orders. The defendants blithely insist that whatever they're going to file today, November 12, should clear up any concerns. They're supposed to have yet another hearing on Friday.

As far as I've been able to determine, there has still been no movement to request a stay of any of the orders or the injunction in this case to a higher court. I don't know why. Are they just dragging their heels hoping the government will re-open making this whole discussion moot? Or are they afraid because of the massive influence of the unions, they won't get a desirable result?

All I get is that the Shutdown was effectively both sides doing a trial run. @Potentially Criminal mentioned that the Democrats used it to energize their base, but otherwise beyond the interview where Trump makes a gaffe nothing really happened. The Democrats won races they were likely to win. The Virginia one was odd, but the Virginia GOP ran a retard.

@Jace on ice did make a good note that shit is bad. I expected that. It’s the end of a fiscal year. Gas is cheaper and some goods are cheaper (get a frozen turkey, shit is cheap). Cost of living is the big thing. Really the mortgage and car loan things were unenforced errors, but Trump seems to have scape goated the faggot.

yeah exactly. its worth exactly zero. actually negative since the plan seems to be to send us in there to "keep the peace" demand disarmament that wont happen, cant be verified as having happened, and that wasnt even specified so that we can be attacked and we have to do yidsreals dirty work. the only way trump should get praise or a peace prize out of that is jammed up his ass.

"but why do you care melty" why do i care that jews try and make it impossible to not be raped by browns here whilst we pay trillions to vaporize brown children preemptively there? because its a blatant undermining of all the narratives we are enslaved by and a bleeding dry of the american people for a cause we were told was immoral by the vampires who simultaneously bemoan supposed mistreatment of minorities to have us give everything even our lives to worthless nigger rapists while they also get to kill any brown that looks at them wrong on our fucking dime.

total. kike. death. every last fucking yid back to palestine to be raped to death.

It will be funny if the government reopens and then Trump fires them anyway and their whole court case is for nothing. Would Trump be able to force the case to keep going if this happens? Settle the matter once and for all so we have have a billion RIF ready to go as a threat should the democrats try to do another shutdown.

I lol sometimes thinking about how Donald Trump achieved a peace agreement between Israel and Palestine and it bought him less than a week of good press.

I mean, a peace agreement between those two isn't worth wiping your ass with, but basically no one cared even a little bit. Hostages saved? *crickets* Genocide stopped? *tumble weed blows past*
Really goes to show how fake all the outrage was.

Maybe the real genocide was the friends and enemies we made along the way
