This week: we execute a U.S. citizen. Next week: we take over elections to stop “fraud.” It's so transparent what's going on here.

Masterful is not what I would call it. Despicable is more apt.

Journalists and politicians, this is what you are supporting when you post on Twitter. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

If a website appeared overnight that gave hundreds of millions of users the opportunity to create CSAM you'd expect governments to shut it down quickly, so the question is why X gets a pass when it's done just that? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

2025 is now, officially, the worst year for job creation outside of recession since 2003. @byheatherlong.bsky.social

December jobs numbers are out: Employment continues to slow, and we added +50k jobs. The unemployment rate fell a tick to 4.4%. Oooph, revisions are brutal: October revised down -68k to -173k; November revised down -8k to +56k. Remember: The Fed thinks these numbers are overstated by 60k.

Total growth in non-farm payrolls, by year: 2016: +2.3m 2017: +2.1m 2018: +2.3m 2019: +2.0m 2020: -9.2m (covid) 2021: +7.2m (covid recovery) 2022: +4.6m 2023: +2.6m 2024: +2.0m 2025: +0.6m

In today’s “this is an actual headline not a joke” i present:

We got “liberated”, alright. 🤡 @justinwolfers.bsky.social #NFP

The unemployment rate for U.S. born workers is up over the last year as well, from 3.7% in December 2024 to 4.1% in December 2025, evidence against the myth that the slowdown in the labor market in 2025 was limited to immigrants.

The slowdown in job growth this year is stark compared to 2024. The average monthly gain was only 49,000 in 2025 compared to 168,000 in 2024. Over the last three months, average job growth was actually negative, meaning there are fewer jobs now than in September. #NumbersDay #EconSky

Today's #JobsReport tells us the economy is decidedly weaker than a year ago: -unemployment rate is 4.4%, up from 4.1% last Dec -payroll employment up 50k; total gain this year only 585k compared to 2.0 million in 2024 -federal employment is down 277k since Jan, a loss of 9.2% federal jobs #EconSky

Tariffs are imposed on goods, not services, so let's check in on that breakdown. Since "Liberation Day": - Goods-producing sector has shed -90,000 jobs - Private services have added +391,000 jobs (The government sector has also shed a further -207k jobs.)

Border Patrol has shot two people in Oregon close to Portland. The shooting occurred near East Burnside and 141st Avenue. The two who were shot allegedly drove to this location for further help and are now en route or at hospital. Their condition is unknown.

A husband and wife have been shot by CBP in Portland Oregon.

Breaking on MS NOW: The House just PASSED Democrats' discharge petition for a three year extension on enhanced Obamacare subsidies, 230-196. 17 Republicans voted with Democrats.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Just days into 2026, the killing of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has sparked protests around the US. If you’re planning to protest, here’s how to safeguard your digital security.

NEW from me: The US is losing blue-collar jobs for the first time since early COVID or the Great Recession—the country has lost 65k jobs over the last year as manufacturing, transport, & mining employment decline, while growth in construction has nearly zeroed out www.apricitas.io/p/america-is...

A woman is dead in Minneapolis after ICE agents opened fire. I don’t need to be a use-of-force expert to say this plainly: she did not need to be shot. And no fair investigation is coming from the same system that wanted this confrontation in the first place. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Our democracy is built on a system of checks and balances. Republicans in Congress have already surrendered their own duties to Trump, and now they want to gut the judiciary for daring to do its job. This is plainly unAmerican behavior. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

Trump proposes a $6 trillion tax increase to pay for a massive military buildup cepr.net/publications... You would think this is the sort of thing a candidate would mention in their campaign.

Thanks to the hard work of Democrats, there might be a deal to keep health costs from spiraling out of control. Every single Michigan Dem in DC is fighting to keep costs down. Every single Michigan GOPer has worked to raise your costs and slash care. thehill.com/homenews/hou...

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.
