I don't think they know what it is.

Seriously.

Next, they'll make moves to have it eliminated along with the statues that represent things that make them feel "uncomfortable".

BTW, as I pointed out earlier, it was a list of Dems that forced Franken to resign. Something that he hasn't actually done yet, just to be clear. He said he would in a matter of weeks, but how many?

I'm arguing that there's no convincing evidence either way [that I'm currently aware of].

Fixed it for you. : )


It was a list of Dems that forced Franken to resign.

And an impressive list it is.

Why did these powerful leftists suddenly abandon Franken?

Because THEY (and President Trump) know things WE don't yet know. These things are politically dangerous, and the left needed quick distance.

Just a theory.

Airbozo has it right. You need to hear the propaganda to know what's coming. NPR is run by folk certain that Stalin could have made a success of Communism if only he'd been as smart as they are.

Franken may not resign until May. Then his appointed Democrat successor will not have to run in 2018, and only has the expensive campaign in 2020, to get six more years. Otherwise they have to call an election in 2018.

Doesn't matter if Franken quits as far as votes go. The Ds don't lose anything. But they are using their sudden virtue signaling to attack Roy Moore in Alabama and Donald.

Its been tradition for Ds to circle the wagons around their own even if it's "a dead girl or naked boy" involved.
This "change" lets them harmlessly dump some dead wood at no cost and use their newfound moral superiority to attack.

Conyers was senile and would show up for meetings in his pajamas. Everyone knew he was a perv. Franken has been shown to be a product of vote fraud and is just a safe scapegoat. I assume he'll get his pension.

I complained about this under Bush the Younger, and Barry the Weasel, and now Donald the game show host. The Unemployment Rate as shown, 4.whatever percent is, not a lie, selective propaganda. Misleading at the least. It's the "U-3" number.

All the people who fell off Unemployment Insurance, that requires you to go through your State Labor Dept., and quit signing up periodically at the office, are considered "not looking" anymore, and don't count. The actual number is Much higher, as a percentage of people who would work if they could get a job.

Don't remember which Administration and Congress pulled this little P.R. trick, ( I was told a Republican ) but the numbers commonly reported are not just a fraction of the picture, which would make logical sense, but is a sliding scale dependent on the economy. So times like the last odd decade where a lot of people can't find work and drop out of "the system" and don't get counted in U-3, the number under represents the facts. You have to consider the yearly U-6 number. ( which they moved.... Hah Hah. )

https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm

Since you need over 200,000 hires each month to hit break even, ( more or less ) we actually are doing better. I'd need to graph it out to tell you how the curves look. ( to determine how much better than the previous few years slow recovery )

Trump noted that the unemployment figure wasn’t the real number a few weeks ago. The first to tout the low unemployment figure whilst simultaneously noting that there are people who have given up that need jobs.

MAGAnomics – November Report Adds 228,000 Jobs, Including 31,000 Manufacturing Gains
Dec 8, 2017

Despite the negative banter from the gnats, the U.S. economy is continuing to outpace economic expectations. More importantly, the gains are within targeted sectors long-ago written off. Yes, Trump’s MAGAnomic policies are proving it was always possible.

Job gains exceeded 280,000 as the Main Street economy continues gaining momentum. The manufacturing sector added 31,000, a slight deviation from ADP payroll actuaries a week ago, which remains a complete reversal of prior historic job growth. For the past three decades manufacturing jobs had been shrinking, now the sector is growing. This is the important part of the overall picture.



The unemployment rate remains at 4.1%, because the underlying data has been strongly manipulated for the past several years. If the data ran negative the statistical ruse would be evident; so the explanation remains that workers who left the economy have reentered, ie. “slack“. :::eyeroll:::

Wage growth was estimated at 2.5%, which is in line with our previous analysis. We do not anticipate massive wage rate gains until the full ‘slack‘ is taken up within the employment market. Our prediction remains that Quarter #2 2018 (April, May, June) will be approximately the time-frame when wage rates increase at 5% and more.


quote:

(Reuters) […] Nonfarm payrolls rose by 228,000 jobs last month amid broad gains in hiring as the distortions from the recent hurricanes faded, Labor Department data showed on Friday. The government revised data for October to show the economy adding 244,000 jobs instead of the previously reported 261,000 positions.

November’s report was the first clean reading since the storms, which also impacted September’s employment data.

The growth in employment was broad in November. Construction payrolls increased by 24,000 jobs, thanks in part to rebuilding efforts in the areas devastated by the hurricanes, after rising 10,000 in October.

Manufacturing scored another month of solid job gains, with payrolls increasing by 31,000 jobs after rising 23,000 in the prior month. Retail payrolls grew by 18,700 jobs last month, the largest gain since January. Employment at department stores increased by 3,100 jobs, likely boosted by hiring for the holiday season.

Council Director Gary Cohn Discusses the Economy
Dec 8, 2017

There’s a lot of people who don’t have a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to battle the multinationals in economic warfare. Those same people don’t like Gary Cohn.

CTH [Conservative Treehouse - FB] recognizes the inherent value in Mr. Cohn as director of President Trump’s national economic council. The guy knows the economic schemes better than almost all of the globalist adversaries. Like Wilbur Ross, the former executive of U.S. Steel, Gary Cohn is one of the well dressed “killers”; an apex financial predator who’s eyes will contract while he shakes your hand, just before he rips your throat out during negotiations. Departing, he’ll wink at your carcass, and still make your team pay for the clean up.

In this interview segment Director Gary Cohn discusses the Republicans’ tax reform plan, infrastructure initiatives and laughs out loud at President Barack 0bama taking credit for the economy.

Director Cohn is a bad, bad man, perhaps the best of the bad men.

There's a reason citizens don't like or trust Congress.

I'm guessing it's the lawyers and general lack of experience with making actual stuff to sell to others that has value, as opposed to con game illusions. There are some few professional folk who were doctors or factory workers or soldiers, but after years in the inner circle of irresponsible behavior?

This is also a great example of how layers of special interest manipulation can result in fubar. And I'm one of the folk who want to keep my own tax advantages, since my finances are planned around them.

Just like most people.

Sunday Talks: Adam Shifty Talks Russia With Narrative Engineer Jake Tapper
By Sundance, Dec 10, 2017

After spending a reasonable amount of time looking at the recent CNN Fake News story surrounding Donald Trump Jr; and accepting the leak that spurred that fake news story stemmed from inside the House Intelligence Committee; and after applying a reasonable amount of common sense to how it occurred; CTH [Conservative Treehouse - FB] believes Adam Schiff was the most likely source of the leak to CNN’s Congressional Correspondent, Manu Raju, that led to the fraudulent story. Today’s discussion with Jake Tapper confirms that assertion:

I agree.

But...will the brainwashed sheep-at-large believe actual fact? Or continue to turn their faces to the sky and scream from their safe places?

That's my real concern in all of this. Sure, we're finding factual evidence that proves how crooked they all are. But will that do any good? Or have the faceless masses been blinded for so long that they'll either not believe it? Or flat out just not understand how it could happen?

Turning a big ship around happens several degrees at a time.

The turn-around in public perception is indeed happening IMO, one red pill at a time. The mainstream media's credibility (such as it is) and influence were badly damaged last week. I expect more of the same.

Watch for Adam Schiff in the news...

The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) said small business optimism soared in November and is now closing in on the record high set in 1983. The Index of Small Business Optimism gained 3.7 points in November, largely a result of progress made by the U.S. House and Senate to pass President Donald Trump’s signature tax reform overhaul.

“We haven’t seen this kind of optimism in 34 years, and we’ve seen it only once in the 44 years that NFIB has been conducting this research,” said NFIB President and CEO Juanita Duggan. “Small business owners are exuberant about the economy, and they are ready to lead the U.S. economy in a period of robust growth.”

“This is the second-highest reading in the 44-year history of the Index,” said NFIB Chief Economist Bill Dunkelberg. “The NFIB indicators clearly anticipate further upticks in economic growth, perhaps pushing up toward four percent GDP growth for the fourth quarter. This is a dramatically different picture than owners presented during the weak 2009-16 recovery.”

The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) said Monday manufacturers’ optimism in the fourth quarter (4Q) of 2017 is the highest in the 20-year history of the Manufacturers’ Outlook Survey. The NAM said the survey has “risen to unprecedented heights” as a result of the tax reform bill.

“The change in the management team in Washington has dramatically improved expectations,” Mr. Dunkelberg added.

They're afraid of losing control.

And kickbacks.

And THAT'S the difference between Trump, and the political establishment. Trump really DOES want things to be better for the American People. Politicians? Want things to be better for THEMSELVES, and screw everyone else.
