They also leave out the part that BLS attributes the job decline to the storms, that the unemployment rate dipped to 4.2 and that the work force participation rate is surgin to levels not seen in a while, meaning MORE Americans have reemtered the work force.

Neither of them wan to discuss any of that.

The jobs numbers suck.

US lost 33,000 jobs in Sept, vs 90,000 jobs increase expected.
This is the first time the U.S. economy has lost jobs since September 2010 – seven years ago.
In addition to September's rough month, the July number was revised lower from 189,000 to 138,000 though August got a bump higher from 156,000.

Don't worry your pretty little heads about it ladies.
Those numbers are all fake anyway.
Remember? Your Great Orange Hope said so when the black guy was in office.

That would be over the last 9 months.

Even with the surprise jobs number, the closely watched hourly wages figure jumped higher, to an annualized rate of 2.9 percent.


Economists surveyed by Reuters expected payroll growth of 90,000 in September, compared with 169,000 in August. The unemployment rate was expected to hold steady at 4.4 percent. It declined even as the labor-force participation rate rose to 63.1 percent, its highest level all year and the best reading since March 2014.


"The lousy returns from the September jobs report will make little impression on observers, who essentially gave the labor market a free pass due to the impact of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma," said Curt Long, chief economist at the National Association of Federally Insured Credit Unions.


An alternate number that includes discouraged workers as well as those working part-time for economic reasons also tumbled, falling from 8.6 percent to 8.3 percent, its lowest reading since June 2007.


The number was expected to be lower than usual due to Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which hammered Texas and Florida, respectively, as well as other states.

Trump Election Commission Leader Sought a Radical Change to a Key Voting Law

New documents show that Kris Kobach wanted Trump to make it much harder to register to vote.

Election Integrity Commission.........LOL

The Man Behind Trump's Voter Fraud Obsession

Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, the vice chair of President Donald Trump’s election integrity commission, urged the Trump administration to weaken a key federal voting law, according to documents released by a federal court on Thursday. Kobach called for amending the 1993 National Voter Registration Act, which requires states to offer voter registration at the DMV and other federal agencies, to allow states to require proof of citizenship in order to register

NRA breaks silence by enlisting Fox News in its attempt to deceive America.

The National Rifle Association is attempting a craven sleight of hand in the wake of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.

Amid outrage that the gunman who killed 58 people and wounded more than 500 equipped his firearms with an accessory that allowed him to fire rounds at a rate comparable to a fully automatic machine gun, the NRA has called on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) to “review” the legality of bump fire stocks.

But the ATF does not have the authority to regulate bump fire stocks -- that power is reserved by Congress.

Facing scrutiny for pushing an agenda that allows mass murderers to maximize their body counts, the NRA’s top lobbyist Chris Cox turned to Fox News’ Tucker Carlson for an assist in the NRA’s attempt to trick the public.

And where better to go than a cable news show that shamelessly provides cover for the disastrous Trump presidency?

In the NRA’s first televised public comments since the shooting, Cox appeared on Tucker Carlson Tonight to field softballs from Carlson and repeat the NRA’s carefully worded statement.

Calling on Congress to loosen laws on how guns can be carried in public, Cox said, “Let ATF do their job, and Congress needs to do their job.

Allow good, honest people the ability to defend themselves.

Pass reforms like national right to carry reciprocity.” Tellingly, Cox added, “We didn’t talk about banning anything.”

Throughout the appearance, Cox repeatedly drew a distinction between what he said Congress should do and what the ATF should do:
Cox’s comments were a charade.

It’s not up to ATF to determine whether bump fire stocks comply with federal law.

As NBC politics reporter Alex Seitz-Wald noted on Twitter, the ATF said in a 2013 letter that bump fire stocks “are not subject to the provisions of Federal firearms statutes” and therefore the agency cannot regulate them:



It’s clear the NRA is attempting a gambit where it appears to offer a concession that stems public outrage while also preserving the status quo on gun regulations.

Journalists with more ethics and brains than Carlson shouldn’t fall for it.
