Breaking: The US added 532,000 jobs in October.

That’s more jobs than the economy added in 4 years of the former guy.

Thank you President Biden.

BREAKING: CBC members exiting Pelosi's office say there WILL be two votes today - on infrastructure and the *rule* on BBB.

That indicates a big win for moderates (who wanted infrastructure before BBB).

Big h/t @nicholaswu12

[Rep. Dean Phillips 🇺🇸 @RepDeanPhillips]

The CBO warned of a $1.9 trillion INCREASE in the deficit over 10 years from the 2017 Trump tax plan. Every Republican voted for it.

The #BBB REDUCES the deficit, creates jobs, grows GDP, invests in children, families and the environment, and is paid for. I will vote for it.

One mercy is that Trump's complete insanity and inability to play nicely with others is that his dumb orange ass is just not a part of any gathering where our ex-presidents are expected to be there.

“We’re the anomaly, and we brag about it — and I think it’s worked for us,” Berger said. “It will not work for us going forward, I don’t think.”

HE DID IT!!! Phil Murphy, a gun sense champion, has won a second term as New Jersey’s governor. Murphy, who has passed several lifesaving gun laws and executive orders, is the first Democrat in nearly five decades to win a second term. #njleg

A lot of liberal reporters in the liberal media really need to think long and hard about how our industry constantly - & irresponsibly - avoids the R word through all sorts of polite, GOP-enabling euphemisms: ‘racial appeals’, ‘racially-coded’, ‘grievance politics’, & the rest.

So...the Supreme Court is considering letting anyone have a concealed weapon in New York... bars, churches, subway... How do they feel about concealed weapons in their courtroom?

In case you were wondering what the white liberal talking class was saying when non-college educated whites were throwing rocks at black girls trying to go to school... well [gestures broadly] now you know.

We need to get angry.
