Would be nice if there was a non firewall link for this.

Trump understands that their is no chance whatsoever of an actual conviction and no competent ethical lawyers would have been involved with this, and therefore the 'perp walk' was the top thing Treason Trump was hoping to get out of doing this.

The government shutdown is not the actual reason why the BLS is not releasing the already compiled job loss numbers. Trump said before the shutdown that wasn't going to release the numbers. And the reason why is obvious. Trump's incompetence caused job losses starting in August and increasing 10 fold in September. Everything Traitorapist Trump touches turns into shit. Nobody in his government is remotely qualified for their jobs starting at the top.

 

Companies shed a seasonally adjusted 32,000 jobs during the month, the biggest slide since March 2023, payrolls processing firm ADP reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for an increase of 45,000.

In addition to the drop in September, the August payrolls number was revised to a loss of 3,000 from an initially reported increase of 54,000.

The report comes as the funding impasse in Washington, D.C., has led to the first government closure since late 2018 into early 2019. Failing a deal over the next two days, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ nonfarm payrolls report for September will not be released, nor will the Labor Department put out the weekly jobless claims count on Thursday. The last time the BLS payrolls report was delayed was in 2013.

Federal Reserve officials count on the payrolls releases as they make decisions on interest rates. The Fed next meets Oct. 28-29, meaning there won’t be another payrolls report before then.

The general would face a court martial or whatever that process is that could lead to a death sentence

Nope and nope.

The general can still fight on the correct side when it comes to civil war.

How. He's going to get out his little Glock and shoot at policemen?

ut now he can no longer be coerced into giving orders to murder innocent people and it’s unlikely his family is deported or murdered as retaliation for him sabotaging or refusing an order.

Would you stop with the nonsense? Trump doesn't have any powers to deport Americans especially family members of the military.

I’m talking about generals, people currently being surveilled for any disloyalty.

Did you not know that most American generals in the Revolutionary War including George Washington had prices on their heads for their disloyalty to the king?

GTFO with your shameful defeatist rhetoric.

Anyone who actually disobeys orders may or may not find their family deported to South America, Africa, whereever

Not. Trump literally has no such power to do anything like this to Americans.

I suspect some of these generals are currently more afraid for their families than you are.

I suspect you are way more afraid of Loserapist Trump than normal Americans who know their rights and can think clearly are. Trump wants you do be afraid. His power depends primarily on you being a spineless coward instead of a proud American who inherited the oldest democracy in the world. You are playing right into his hands.

You know it’s infinitely more likely that those that stick around are going to just take part in atrocities and not actually resist them right?

No, we certainly do not "know" that. People with ethics who would consider resigning are not going to take part in atrocities. The people who would take part in atrocities would be the gung ho Treason Trump supporters. We want as few of them as possible replacing normal people.

That is not the way it works at all.

If you stay in a position where you support fascist regime that makes you a fascist.

Being in the military doesn't make you a "supporter of a fascist regime". It puts you in a position to stop fascism some day. The Romanian dictator was executed in 1989 by his own military.

If you stay on “to prevent things from getting even worse” that will not fly at your eventual court hearing.

Those people aren't going to have an "eventual court hearing". They are going to have a court hearing for every officer in the US military? Don't be ridiculous.

Also, if they replace all the competent people with sycophantic morons, eventually the whole thing will collapse.

This is so naive. The Bolsheviks in Russia lasted from 1917 to 1991. China's dictatorship started in 1949 and is still going strong. More likely than not a dictatorship will last for the rest of your lifetime.

 

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon are all named in copies of Jeffrey Epstein's daily schedules released Friday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.

Why it matters: The schedules make reference to Musk possibly flying to an "island" in 2014, and Thiel and Bannon apparently dining with Epstein as recently as 2017 and 2019, respectively.

I'm going to draw a big X across his face on every bill.

Randomness is part of AI algorithms. So this is in part similar to rolling a dice to decide if people get denied medical care. Thanks for this Republican voters.

 

“Shared savings arrangements mean that vendors financially benefit when less care is delivered,” a structure that can create a powerful incentive for companies to deny medically necessary care, said Jennifer Brackeen, senior director of government affairs for the Washington State Hospital Association.

And doctors and policy experts say that’s only one concern.

Rathi said the plan “is not fully fleshed out” and relies on “messy and subjective” measures. The model, he said, ultimately depends on contractors to assess their own results, a choice that makes the results potentially suspect.

Treason Trump wants to turn the US into a corrupt fascist rogue state.

 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday postponed the release of a key annual report central to future inflation data.

Why it matters: The BLS — charged with collecting critical data on employment, prices and more — did not explain the reasoning for the delay or when it might ultimately be released. There is heightened concern about the future of U.S. statistics, including the politicization and accuracy of crucial data that affects the stock market and interest rates.

 

SHAPIRO: So let's reveal the number. When you add it all up, what's the total that you reached?

KIRKPATRICK: I came up with $3.4 billion.

SHAPIRO: You really do show your work. When I printed it out, it was 58 pages.
