Then for the second half of 2025, the new version (red) shows much bigger job gains of 345,000 for June through December, than the old version (131,000). For 2024, the new version shows big job losses in February and March (red), while the old version showed moderate gains (blue). And then again in September and October 2024, the new version showed job losses (red), when the old version showed massive job gains (blue). For 2023, the new version shows huge job gains for May, June, and July, while the old version showed much smaller job gains. These massive differences go back all the way back to 2010. The entire data set was massively revised. ADP's entire data series going back to 2010 was heavily revised, and shifted down by about 2.5 million jobs across the entire period.

No one in Mexico or Ecuador or Honduras etc live in nations where there is any state persecution of any protected class. It's all fake, all the way down. 2. All non-Mexican illegals have transited through additional countries on the way to America where there are no forms of state persecution, thereby further disproving any hypothetical claim 3. As yet further proof the claims are fake, aliens turn down the opportunity to avoid this fabricated persecution by being safely resettled in another nation 4. Illegal aliens receive free and functionally unlimited legal services. When facing deportation, they and their lawyers (as a matter of course) automatically file fake asylum applications. It's a multibillion dollar fraudulent industry. It's gross, unethical, and deeply immoral. Everyone involved in this system understands and knows these claims are false. Adjudicating these knowingly false claims is a full-time job for thousands of people. 5. Federal law requires illegal aliens to be detained pending a hearing for their (fake) asylum claim. These are not prisons. They are not being punished. No one is being sentenced. Civil detention and removal is not part of the Article III justice system (in fact, Congress stripped Article III of jurisdiction over civil immigration procedure). The goal of the US government is to send aliens home immediately (they get cash and a free plane ticket) with the fewest days in custody as logistically possible. Any delay is caused by the fake asylum claim. 6. When the fake asylum claim is heard on the “non-detained” docket the illegal aliens rarely show for their hearings. Those few who do show stay in the country regardless after losing (unless placed into detention). Removal orders are ignored as a matter of course. If and when absconders are eventually found (at great time and expense) they still have to be detained to actually effectuate the removal. At this point in time their lawyers will file a motion to reopen their asylum claim or otherwise appeal the finding and seek release again. Regardless, no removal of any alien anywhere can occur unless in a detained setting. If the alien has children they are, by law, supposed to stay in a family residential center (that costs more per night than a high-end hotel, and includes full medical, dental, scholastic and other services) 7. Biden officials did not even bother with the pretext of performing intake interviews for the millions and millions and millions they released into the US. The aliens were simply released on sight, no questions asked, with court dates years away, in the hope and expectation that by the time their fake asylum claims were adjudicated and rejected years later, Democrats would be able to scream that these illegals have now lived here for X years and they and their children must be allowed to stay at our permanent expense. No one in the prior Administration responsible for these decisions actually believed the or now this has anything to do with asylum. To them, it is just useful propaganda in service of infinite mass migration. https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/2019043492899725395?s=20 DOJ Files Show Jeffrey Epstein Was Reportedly About To Cooperate With Federal Prosecutors Just Weeks Before He Was Found Dead in Jail Epstein was going to flip?

Last week Trump had picked up the phone and urged President Putin to refrain from attacking Kiev and other major cities. Trump said of the surprise pause that Putin had agreed to halt strikes for one week. Trump has newly told reporters that the agreement expired on Sunday, and that Russia kept its word. “It was Sunday to Sunday, and it opened up and he hit them hard last night,” Trump explained at the White House on Tuesday. “He kept his word on that… we'll take anything, because it's really, really cold over there.” And then as Reuters reported: Source: zerohedge.com Medical/False Flags [DS] Agenda https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2019073176588919068?s=20 Chairman @SenRickScott 's letter & EXPOSING the rampant fraud in our health care system. https://twitter.com/susancrabtree/status/2019043192688042099?s=20 “HomeKey” housing program, which lacked basic verification systems.

The construction firm is STILL touting a Newsom endorsement and quote praising it on its Instagram account.

I). You have the legal right to gather in public spaces for lawful purposes- – -like protesting, petitioning the government, or observing events—as long as it’s peaceful and doesn’t break other laws (e.g., no trespassing, no interfering with federal operations, no violence). Supreme Court cases like De Jonge v. Oregon (1937) made it clear: peaceable assembly is a fundamental right, cognate to free speech, and can’t be banned just because officials dislike the message. Governments can impose reasonable, content-neutral time, place, and manner restrictions (e.g., permits for large crowds, no blocking traffic) to protect public safety/order, but they can’t outright prohibit lawful gatherings or use force against peaceful participants. Bottom line: True peaceful assembly is 100% protected. Fake titles don’t create extra rights or shields for illegal interference. Stay lawful – – – stay peaceful—that’s the line.

As ICE cracks down in Minneapolis and across the country, reporters and privacy advocates have drawn attention to how the agency is using technology: scanning people's faces without consent, using private health records to make arrests, tracking people's location in real time with phone data.So how does all this work? How does the United States' data ecosystem make it possible for not just ICE, but any number of government agencies and businesses to buy our private data? And what actually happens after we send that DM or open up Instagram at a protest to post a picture?To learn more, Host Flora Lichtman sits down with law professor and tech policy expert Laura Moy. She's testified in Congress about privacy laws and how data brokers profit off of personal data.Guest: Laura Moy is an associate professor of law at Georgetown Law, based in Washington, D.C.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Democrats have laid out their demands as lawmakers in Washington negotiate a deal on ICE accountability. Sahil Kapur of NBC News explains the breadth of those demands and the tight timeline Congress is on. A recent drone attack by Russia left more than 1,000 apartment buildings in Kyiv without power. Politico’s Veronika Melkozerova joins to discuss how Ukrainians are surviving winter after continued attacks on their electricity grid. A warming climate is putting future Winter Olympic sites at risk of no longer being able to host the event. The Washington Post’s Janice Kai Chen breaks down the challenges cities face and the solutions being proposed. Plus, the Supreme Court cleared the way for a new congressional map in California, the Washington Post is laying off a third of its newsroom, and how Buddhist monks are spreading a message of peace through walking. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.
Karen Friedman Agnifilo and guest host Lisa Graves host the top-ranked law and politics podcast Legal AF and break down this week's most explosive legal and political developments at the intersection of law and democracy. From the Supreme Court's approval of California's congressional maps, to the high-profile Hellerstein hearing on the attempted transfer of Trump's Manhattan criminal case, KFA and Lisa explain how these decisions will shape the balance of power in Congress and the rule of law. They also dive into updates on the Epstein files, including how Judge Berman brokered a critical fix to victim redaction issues in that sprawling case. Finally, they tackle the latest developments in Minnesota, where federal immigration enforcement has been scaled back with 700 agents removed amid ongoing protests and legal turmoil.

The Left keeps searching for a George Floyd moment with ICE, and they just aren't getting it.

It's incredibly popular amongst Americans. So, what's the hold up? Border czar Tom Homan gave an update on the Minnesota mission. Looking good.

Tommy and Ben break down the expanding web of corruption around President Trump — from a bombshell report revealing the UAE royal family's stake in the Trump family crypto venture, to the global fallout from the release of the Epstein Files. They also dig into Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's role in “investigating” insane foreign election conspiracies, a mysterious, top-secret whistleblower complaint that Gabbard has kept from Congress, the impact of brutal winter conditions on the war in Ukraine, Egypt's role in Sudan's civil war, why Americans should care about a separatist movement in Alberta, Canada, and the last place you'd ever expect to find a World War I artillery shell. Then, Ben speaks with Ali Vaez of the International Crisis Group about what's unfolding in Iran after the regime's brutal crackdown.

Donald Trump is going to do everything he can to hold onto his near monopoly on power after the midterms. Beyond his scheme to invoke the Insurrection Act through a riot he's trying to will into being in Minneapolis, he could also declare foreign election interference—or claim there was skullduggery afoot in Los Angeles or Georgia precincts. Anything to stall or stop the new Congress from being seated. Who's going to stop him? Meanwhile, America will get the short end of the stick under his stupid new National Security Strategy. Plus, Dem elites since 2016 have failed to appreciate the economic despair among so many Americans, and some spiritual guidance for getting back to the moral and political pillars of the Declaration of Independence.Marianne Williamson and Bob Kagan join Tim Miller.show notes Bob's recent piece in The Atlantic Marianne's Substack Due to popular demand, we've added a second show in Minneapolis on Wednesday, February 18.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we dive deep into the pressing issue of election integrity, sparked by recent revelations from Georgia that indicate a far-reaching problem beneath the surface. Host John Solomon discusses the alarming findings surrounding illegal aliens on voter rolls and potential foreign intrusions in our elections, including Iranian and possible Chinese interference. With the FBI's recent raid on a Fulton County warehouse storing 2020 election ballots, Solomon underscores the significance of these events and the implications for future elections.Joining the conversation is Harmeet Dhillon, the Justice Department's point person on voting, who shares her insights on the ongoing prosecutions related to election integrity. Dhillon has been at the forefront of efforts to clean up voter rolls and combat the weaponization of the electoral system. Solomon and Dhillon explore the challenges and successes in ensuring fair elections, especially in light of recent allegations against election workers.Next, Solomon welcomes J. Christian Adams, a former chief of the Justice Department's Voting Rights Division, who gained national attention for exposing voter intimidation tactics in 2008. Adams discusses the historical context of voting rights and the current state of election integrity efforts, emphasizing the need to uphold the very laws that were fought for during the civil rights movement.As the episode unfolds, listeners will hear from David Shafer, the former chairman of the Georgia Republican Party, who provides an update on the aftermath of the FBI's raid and the ongoing litigation regarding the preservation of ballots. Shafer highlights the importance of transparency and accountability in the electoral process.Solomon also touches on recent headlines, including the fallout from a whistleblower complaint against Tulsi Gabbard and the ongoing dynamics surrounding Bill and Hillary Clinton's testimony in Congress. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the implications of current government funding and the challenges posed by the Biden administration's energy policies.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

As we were driving in, we passed a small group of maybe 30 people holding large “F ICE” signs, spelled out. Many of the houses in the neighborhood also had signs saying “F ICE” and similar messages. When we were leaving to drive back to the hotel, we passed the group again. At that point, the resistance group stepped out in front of our car and would not let us drive. One woman appeared to be looking at our license plate and doing something on her phone. She was standing directly in front of the car, blocking us — I cannot imagine being a sane person and living in this city.

In any event, this case will continue until justice is served. Dr. Alan Garber, the President of Harvard, has done a terrible job of rectifying a very bad situation for his institution and, more importantly, America, itself. He was hired AFTER the antisemitism charges were brought – I wonder why??? We are now seeking One Billion Dollars in damages, and want nothing further to do, into the future, with Harvard University. As The Failing New York Times clearly stated, “Some connected to the University, however, think Harvard has no option but to eventually cut a deal. The Administration has repeatedly attempted to cut off research grants, which would be an untenable crises. Like many major research universities, Harvard relies on federal funding for its financial model.” Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP Macron's Authorities Raid Elon Musk's X French Offices in Paris Under the direction of France's globalist President Macron, French authorities escalated their confrontation with American tech entrepreneur Elon Musk this week, launching high-profile raids of X's offices in Paris and summoning Musk himself for what prosecutors termed a “voluntary interview.” The move marks a dramatic intensification of France's long-running effort to rein in the America-based free-speech platform. According to the Paris public prosecutor's office, the operation was carried out by French cybercrime units with assistance from Europol, targeting the French premises of X. Authorities claim the investigation centers on whether X's algorithm improperly influenced French political discourse. Summonses were issued to Musk and former X CEO Linda Yaccarino, calling them to Paris in April 2026 to answer questions related to the probe. Yaccarino, who stepped down last year, is listed alongside Musk as a manager during the period under review. French prosecutors later broadened their inquiry, citing concerns related to X's AI chatbot Grok, including claims it produced offensive or false content. Musk's company responded by correcting errors, removing disputed posts, and publicly documenting its moderation actions—steps critics say would have been praised had they come from a European firm.

Leading up to the Dutch elections of 2023 the EU commission even made the then Dutch Interior Ministry @hugodejonge a “trusted flagger” entitled to make priority censorship requests under the DSA. What kind of political speech did they want to censor, you ask? – “Populist rhetoric” – “Anti-government/anti-EU content” – “Anti-elite” content – “Political satire” – “Anti-migrant and Islamophobic content” – “Anti-refugee content/anti-immigrant sentiment” – “Anti-LGBTQI content” – “Meme subculture” In other words, anything that goes against their agenda, anything remotely right-wing or conservative, and anything pertaining to the disastrous migrant situation we have here in Europe. And guess what the only platform was that did not cooperate? @X , of course. The same platform that the EU is fining for 120 million euros under the DSA and the same platform that is currently having its offices raided in France.

Facing ‘Imminent Financial Collapse' Admits Secretary General as Countries Won't Cough Up Membership Fees The United Nations is facing an “imminent financial collapse” as member states refuse to cough up billions of dollars in mandatory contributions. The financial woes were laid out in an emergency letter from Secretary-General António Guterres sent to all 193 member countries. Guterres said the organisation's financial crisis is worsening rapidly, threatening the delivery of core programmes and potentially leaving the U.N. bankrupt by July. He urged member states to either pay what they owe in full or agree to sweeping changes to the UN's financial rules to avoid collapse. “Either all member states honour their obligations to pay in full and on time—or member states must fundamentally overhaul our financial rules to prevent an imminent financial collapse,” he wrote. The warning comes as the United States, the U.N.'s largest contributor, has refused to fund the organisation's regular and peacekeeping budgets and has withdrawn from multiple UN agencies. The Trump administration has repeatedly criticised the U.N. for wasting taxpayer dollars, appeasing criminal regimes and infringing on the sovereignty of the U.S. and other member nations. Several other member states are also in arrears or have declined to pay their assessed contributions.

Refrigerators containing unknown liquids and vials of suspected biological material were found inside the residence, prompting an aggressive response from HazMat teams, SWAT units, and FBI specialists due to the potential threat presented by the materials, The Hill reported. At least one individual was taken into custody in connection with the Las Vegas raid, identified by local officials as a 55-year-old property manager, Ori Solomon. He is currently booked on felony charges linked to the improper disposal of hazardous waste, though investigators continue to determine the full scope of charges that may arise. Property records reveal that the Las Vegas home is owned by “David Destiny Discovery, LLC,” according to The Sun. If that name sounds familiar, it should. It is a shell company registered to Jia Bei Zhu (also known as David He), the very same Chinese national who ran the illegal Reedley, California biolab exposed in 2023. Zhu, a fugitive from Canada with deep ties to the Chinese government, is currently in federal custody. The FBI has taken the lead in analyzing the more than 1,000 samples collected from the scene, with evidence transported to federal laboratories for further testing. https://twitter.com/RepKiley/status/2018514131876213199?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E2018514131876213199%7Ctwgr%5E1616a599ecdcff26961307ece268007bf47acbbc%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thegatewaypundit.com%2F2026%2F02%2Ffbi-raids-illegal-biolab-inside-private-home-las%2F Source: thegatewaypundit.com https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2018714265247453494?s=20 https://twitter.com/liz_churchill10/status/2018321118000476222?s=20 https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/2017614901028786500?s=20 [DS] Agenda BREAKING: Jill Biden's Ex-Husband Arrested and Charged with Murder of His Wife Jill Biden's ex-husband Bill Stevenson was charged with first-degree murder of his wife, Linda Stevenson.

This would effectively keep the government open while allowing Republican senators to break through the “zombie” filibuster and put the SAVE America Act up for a vote on the Senate floor. The standing filibuster is not common parliamentary procedure, but it is one of the only mechanisms available to go around senators who want to block voter ID. @LeaderJohnThune we are very pleased that you are discussing the standing filibuster, and we believe you will go down in history if this is pulled off as one of the best leaders the Senate has ever had. Voter ID is a must, and the ball is now in your court. https://twitter.com/AwakenedOutlaw/status/2018510290653155445?s=20 https://twitter.com/CynicalPublius/status/2018439757227819347?s=20 IMMEDIATELY blasted off like gangbusters. In one year we have seen more productive conservative change in the federal government than with every other GOP president since Reagan combined. Trump has significantly degraded the Deep State in a way most of us could only dream of ten years ago. Moreover, Trump's economic policies are bearing fruit right now and we will likely see a very strong economy by the midterms. But… Ah yes, the midterms. I know so many of you will only be happy when Bill Clinton, Hillary, Obama and Joe Biden are in jail, but you need to join the world of reality. Right now Trump and his team are gauging everything they do through the lens of “How will this effect the midterms?” They have sophisticated polling that you and I will never see, and at the moment every Trump action is tempered by “Let's be aggressive but not in such a way it turns public opinion against us before the midterms.” Trump knows that if he loses the midterms, all is lost. The Dems will constantly impeach him and most of his cabinet, and even if the Senate never convicts, the acts of impeachment will grind the Trump machine to a halt. The midterms are everything. So I'm warning you, from now until November you are going to see a less aggressive Trump If you are a Doomster for whom nothing is ever enough, you need to understand why that is. But here is the good news. I believe that one day after the midterms Trump will once again go shock and awe for a year, and then back off again in 2028 to get JD or Rubio elected. (For example, I can easily see Trump taking zero drastic action in the near term to further inflame the Minnesota situation, but invoking the Insurrection Act the day after the midterms and sending in the 82nd.) Since the Super Bowl is coming up, consider it this way: In the first quarter, Trump ran up the score. In the second quarter, he went prevent defense to hold onto the lead. After halftime, once again in the third quarter he will run up the score, and then hold the lead in the fourth quarter to win the game. This is not Qtard “trust the plan” nonsense. This is simply good political strategy. Everyone needs to realize two things: (1) the Constitution includes checks and balances that inherently weaken the absolute power of each branch and (2) even though they are in the minority, Democrats still have a HUGE say. Our system is DESIGNED THIS WAY. We have to account for the opposition—you cannot ignore them. With that in mind, I have every confidence that Trump and his team will navigate through a treacherous course and come out on the winning side. I’m hoping this post makes the things you see in the months ahead more comprehensible. Have a nice day. https://twitter.com/nicksortor/status/2018742785017336107?s=20 the SAVE Act is not included in the government funding bill that advanced via the 217-215 House procedural vote on February 3, 2026. That legislation is a $1.2 trillion spending package funding most federal agencies through September 30, 2026, while extending funding for the Department of Homeland Security only through February 13, 2026, to allow for further negotiations on immigration enforcement. Efforts by some conservative Republicans to attach the SAVE Act—a separate bill requiring proof of U.S. citizenship for federal voter registration—were rejected during the process, following calls from President Trump to pass the package without changes.

I begin today's show discussing how yesterday's budget vote was a perfect example of Kabuki theater where both parties wanted the government funding bill to pass, but they passed out hall passes to members who needed to vote against it. I'm joined by Rosemary Jenks of the Immigration Accountability Project, who has been fighting mass migration for 36 years. She has an urgent message on what we must do in this narrow window to right the ship on deportations, focus on workplace enforcement and stolen identity, empower state enforcement, and codify Trump's executive orders in Congress. The window to save America is closing. She outlines a concrete battle plan — from worksite enforcement to impeaching lawless judges — that the GOP refuses to use. Learn more about your ad choices.

So friends, can I ask you a question? Does it feel like it might be time to start talking about a constitutional do-over?We have a corrupt and criminal president who feels completely unconstrained by the United States Constitution. As but one example: he has abused the constitutional pardon power beyond anybody's wildest imagination. We have a majority on the Supreme Court that feels completely unconstrained by the expressed language of the Constitution. As but one example, the Constitution provides that the president shall take care that the laws of the nation be faithfully executed. Yet the Supreme Court - a majority of the justices - interpreted that very language, that solemn duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, as indicating that a president has complete leeway to violate all the laws of our nation, victimizing wide swaths of the American population, and he has complete immunity from prosecutionThen we have Congress - one political party that has just laid down and let a tyrant in the oval office walk all over them - completely abandoning their status as a coequal branch of government.So let me ask you again friends: do you think it's time we talked about a constitutional do-over? Well, that's what I just talked about with my friend, law professor, and constitutional scholar Kim Wehle. Kim authored a great new piece - you can find it on Substack appropriately titled, "Is it time to start thinking about a constitutional do-over". And given that our Constitution is plainly not up to the task of governing in these dangerous and lawless times, I think the answer to that question is not just yes but hell yes!

Affordability is back in focus in D.C. after the brief U.S. shutdown. Our Deputy Global Head of Research Michael Zezas and Head of Public Policy Research Ariana Salvatore look at some proposals in play.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Zezas: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Zezas, Deputy Global Head of Research for Morgan Stanley. Ariana Salvatore: And I'm Ariana Salvatore, Head of Public Policy Research. Michael Zezas: Today we're discussing the continued focus on affordability, and how to parse signals from the noise on different policy proposals coming out of D.C.It's Wednesday, February 4th at 10am in New York. Ariana Salvatore: President Trump signed a bill yesterday, ending the partial government shutdown that had been in place for the past few days. But affordability is still in focus. It's something that our clients have been asking about a lot. And we might hear more news when the president delivers his State of the Union address on February 24th and possibly delivers his budget proposal, which should be around the same time. So, needless to say, it's still a topic that investors have been asking us about and one that we think warrants a little bit more scrutiny. Michael Zezas: But maybe before we get into how to think about these affordability policies, we should hit on what we're seeing as the real pressure points in the debate. Ariana, you recently did some work with our economists. What were some of your findings? Ariana Salvatore: So, Heather Berger and the rest of our U.S. econ[omics] team highlighted three groups in particular that are feeling more of the affordability crunch, so to speak. That's lower income consumers, younger consumers, and renters or recent home buyers. Lower income households have experienced persistently higher inflation and more recently weaker wage growth. Younger consumers were hit hardest when inflation peaked and are more exposed to higher borrowing costs. And lastly, renters and recent buyers are dealing with much higher shelter burdens that aren't fully captured in standard inflation metrics. Now, the reason I laid all that out is because these are also the cohorts where the president's approval ratings have seen the largest declines. Michael Zezas: Right. And so, it makes sense that those are the groups where the administration might be targeting some of these affordability initiatives. Ariana Salvatore: That's right. But that's not the only variable that they're solving for. Broadly speaking, we think that the president and Republicans in Congress really need to solve for four things when it comes to affordability policies. First, targeting these quote right cohorts, which are those, as we mentioned, that have either moved furthest away from the president politically, or have been the most under pressure. Second feasibility, right? So even if Republicans can agree on certain policies, getting them procedurally through Congress can still be a challenge. Third timing – just because the legislative calendar is so tight ahead of the November elections. And fourth speed of disbursement. So basically, how long it would take these policies to translate to an uplift for consumers ahead of the elections. Michael Zezas: So, thinking through each of these constraints, starting with how easy it might be to actually get some of these policies done, most of the policies that are being proposed on the housing side require congressional approval. In terms of these cohorts, it seems like these policies are most likely to focus on – that seems aimed at lower-income and younger voters. And in terms of timing, we know the legislative calendar is tight ahead of the midterms, and the policy makers want to pursue things that can be enacted quickly and show up for voters as soon as possible. Ariana Salvatore: So, using that lens, we think the most realistic near-term tools are probably mostly executive actions. Think agency directives and potential changes to tariff policy. If we do see a second reconciliation bill emerge, it will probably move more slowly but likely cover some of those housing related tax credit changes. But of course, not all these policies would move the needle in the same way. What do we think matters most from a macro perspective? Michael Zezas: So, what our economists have argued is that the affordability policies being discussed – tax credits subsidies, payment pauses – they could be meaningful at a micro level for targeted households, but for the most part, they don't materially change the macro outlook. The exception might be tariffs; that probably has the broadest and most sustained impact on affordability because it directly affects inflation. Lower tariffs would narrow inflation differentials across cohorts, support real income growth and make it easier for the Fed to cut rates. Ariana Salvatore: Right. And just to add a finer point on that, I think directionally speaking, this is where we've seen the administration moving in recent months. Remember, towards the end of last year, the Trump administration placed an exemption on a lot of agricultural imports. And just the other day, we heard news that the trade deal with India was finalized reducing the overall tariff rate to 18 percent from about 50 percent prior. Michael Zezas: Okay. So, putting it all together for what investors need to know. We see three key takeaways. First, even absent new policy, our economists expect some improvement in affordability this year as inflation decelerates and rate cuts come into view. And specifically, when we talk about improvements in affordability, what our economists are referring to is income growth consistently outpacing inflation, lowering required monthly payments. Second, most proposed affordability policies are unlikely to generate the meaningful macro growth impulse, so investors shouldn't overreact to headline announcements. And third, the cohort divergence matters for equities. Pressure on lower income in younger consumers helps explain why parts of consumer discretionary have lagged. While higher income exposed segments have remained more resilient. So, if inflation continues to cool, especially via tariff relief, that's what would broaden the consumer recovery and potentially create better returns for some of the sectors in the equity markets that have underperformed. Ariana Salvatore: Right, and from the policy side, I would say this probably isn't the last time we'll be talking about affordability. It's politically salient. The policy responses are likely targeted and incremental, and this should continue to remain a top focus for voters heading into November.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down Tom Homan's tremendous early success overseeing immigration enforcement in Minnesota, the challenges Republicans face heading into the midterm elections, and Melinda Gates' telling response to new Jeffrey Epstein allegations involving her ex-husband, Bill Gates.First, they applaud Homan for restoring order in Minnesota while still delivering results. He says the federal government is downsizing its operation there by 700 personnel, noting that improved cooperation with local authorities has reduced the need for additional agents. Homan also forcefully calls out activists blocking roads in an effort to disrupt immigration enforcement.Next, they assess a string of disappointing election results for Republicans and what those outcomes signal for the GOP ahead of the midterms. Jim outlines the key issues Republicans must emphasize, particularly the cost of living, while Greg offers blunt advice to congressional Republicans to energize the base and expand their appeal to other voters.Finally, they react to Melinda Gates responding to the latest Epstein allegations involving Bill Gates, making clear she's unconvinced by her ex-husband's denials. While the Wall Street Journal and others argue releasing all the Epstein documents was a mistake, Jim explains why he believes Congress and the Justice Department made the right call.Please visit our great sponsors:Skip the hassle and book a top-rated doctor in seconds with Zocdoc.

Investigative Reporter at 'Bette Dangerous' and Substack, Byline Times, Heidi Siegmund Cuda explains the ‘separatist' movements as part of Russian-funded active measures to weaken and overthrow democracies, giving cover for imperialist invasions. Trump is to Alberta as Putin is to Donbas. All the talk about separatists is just a cover for invasion. The imperialist idea that Ukraine is not a real country but merely Russia's “backyard” is mirrored in the American imperialist theme that Canada is not a real country but is only a dependency of the United States.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Virtually every issue preventing We The People from getting the responsive, honest government we want is foiled by America's ridiculous lack of term limits. Immigration. Medical fraud. Transnational schemes that steal from our children. All the trans stuff. Term limits require elected representatives to do their jobs in a limited window so they're not constantly running for re-election, and constantly looking for ways to pay for it. The Epstein stuff is backfiring on democrats as the Clintons agree to testify before Congress and Melinda Gates reacts to Bill Gates' liaisons with Epstein escorts.
On Tuesday, the House voted 217–214 to pass a full-year funding package for several federal agencies, excluding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), ending a four-day partial government shutdown. The funding bill previously passed the Senate 71–29, after Democrats pushed to remove appropriations for DHS following the shootings of two U.S. citizens by federal immigration officers in Minnesota in January. 21 Democrats voted for the measure in the House, while 21 Republicans voted against it. President Donald Trump signed the bill on Tuesday, funding most federal departments through September 30; the deadline to fund Homeland Security was set for next Friday, February 13.

A dangerous betrayal may be unfolding in Washington and ICE agents need to be paying close attention. Republicans appear ready to bow to Democrats as Congress now debates legislating how ICE agents are allowed to patrol. Let’s be clear. This is not the role of government. Patrols are complex, fluid, and impossible to neatly define in statute. Once politicians start writing rules for law enforcement in the field, agents are no longer protected. If an ICE agent steps outside a politically written guideline, even while doing their job, they could now face criminal charges. This is a setup, plain and simple, and it puts agents in a precarious and potentially dangerous position. We also break down a bombshell in media and culture. The proposed merger between Netflix and Warner Bros. has Republican senators sounding the alarm. If approved, this would create an unprecedented leftist propaganda superpower, capable of shaping narratives, values, and ideology on a massive scale. One look at Netflix programming already tells the story. Imagine that influence multiplied and aimed directly at American families and children. This is not just business. It is cultural indoctrination at scale.
