1. Maybe it's just me....but every time that the media does some on-the-street interview with a anti-Trump enthusiast....if asked about their work, they always seem to be a gov't worker, teacher, retiree or med-worker. You never see someone identify as a farmer, welder, bar-tender, cowboy, engineer, or rocket-scientist.
2. Again, maybe it's just me....but I get the impression that we need to bring all Americans in for a 1-hour lecture...on what gets you fed-prison time, and how a felony follows you for the remainder of your life.
3. It's an odd thing....fed reporting on unemployment. Before the shut-down...it was reported by BLM....to be 4.3-percent (using August data) for September.
State by state? The best state is South Dakota at 1.9-percent, and the worse is California at 5.5-percent (NV follows very closely).
So here's the thing....with all the illegals being picked-up and rapidly disappearing from their regular job....there has to be vacant positions existing and employers who were dealing under the table....NOW forced into hiring.
Yet, day after day (past 2 weeks)....I see the doom-and-gloom crowd talking of a highly negative period approaching.
4. 29 Oct....Fed meets. Some expectation of a quarter-point down.
5. The more that this NO-KINGS BS continues....the more I see MAGA as their 'path'. The crew may not be bright enough to grasp this.....but it's just funny how they sell the brand.
6. Someone brought up the 1925 Klan rally in DC....the last time that a massive rally was held in the capital with 99-percent whites. The odd factor? Well....Klan-members have always typically been Democrat.
7. Something I've wondered about for the past month....why do "lower-income" Americans have car payments? Growing up in the 1970s....if you looked around....most everyone had 5-10 old cars ('beaters). Somewhere around age 30....they progressed up to newer vehicles.
You look out, and see a lot of folks.....finishing up college, and immediately run off with the first job....to buy strictly a new car (over-priced).
8. I read this AM....President Trump is considering commuting the sentence of Sean Diddy Combs. Will be curious if the news media even discusses this.
