    President Joe Biden will speak about the surprising September jobs report on Friday, October 6. As Breitbart News reported, America added 336,000 jobs in September, while the unemployment rate stayed the same at 3.8 percent: The much-better-than-expected surge in employment puts pressure on the Federal Reserve to hike again at its two meeting that starts on the final day of October. The Fed decided at its last meeting in September to hold rates steady to see how earlier rate increases are affecting the economy. Prior to today, the market was pricing in around a 20 percent chance of a hike...

    First Gentleman Douglass Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, criticized “toxic masculinity” in an interview with MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart conducted Tuesday. JONATHAN CAPEHART, MSNBC: A moment ago I asked you about gender roles. I want to dive in even deeper on that. Can we just talk about masculinity for a moment? Has being second gentleman changed your view of perceived gender roles and what it means to be a man? DOUGLAS EMHOFF, SECOND GENTLEMAN OF THE UNITED STATES: Oof. This is something I have thought about a lot, I’ve spoken about a lot. There’s too much of toxicity...

    APOPKA, Fla. — U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson spoke at an Apopka event Sunday intended to support and educate residents about President Barack Obama’s recent executive action on immigration. Funding for the Department of Homeland Security will last only through the end of the week. A long-term solution has not yet been reached because of the ongoing debate over immigration. Channel 9’s Janai Norman spoke to a local family caught in the middle of the debate. The Manceras are immigrants from Mexico and for more than 18 years, they’ve been stuck in the immigration process. “There (are) families that may be...

    Last week a Hooters server stepped inside a Florida school to talk with students about her job for a career day. Now a parent at the school is outraged, and people are asking whether it was appropriate for a woman who works at a restaurant known for its sexy waitresses to speak to a group of students. Hooters is a national restaurant chain that’s known for its hot waitresses who sport tight tank-tops and orange short-shorts. It’s a place where men like to go for wings and jugs (of beer). But Hooters server Brittany Morgan, 23, wasn’t sporting her uniform...

    Huge thanks to David DiCrescenzo, Editor at Large American Patriots Press for videoing and posting my speech at the Florida State Tea Party Convention last weekend. It was the most amazing event, historic in fact, and the mainstream media's myopic meme was culled from the Hamas-linked CAIR press release deriding the event and creating Islamic supremacist lies out of whole cloth. Yes, now the media is taking their talking points and their cues from the Muslim Brotherhood, Fla state teapgpimping their anti-American hate and spinning it into "news reportage." Their coverage of the Florida State Tea Party Convention channeled the...

    Banks should accept a lower profit so their customers won’t have to pay for debit cards, President Barack Obama told an ABC reporter today, when asked about Bank of America’s decision to charge its customers $5 per month for use of its debit cards. Before Obama’s interview, the bank was already facing financial difficulties. Bank of America’s stock was trading at $10 per share in mid-July. Today, as the president joined Democratic politicians in complaining about the bank’s decision, its stock fell from $6.10 per share this morning to $5.60 by the end of the interview.

    Luton, England - The leader of a British far-right group to which Anders Behring Breivik claims links called the attacks a sign of "growing anger" in Europe against Muslim immigrants, while a politician in a party in Italy's governing coalition called some of the gunman's ideas "great." Following a wave of near universal revulsion against the attacks, the comments were among the first public statements that appeared to defend the extremist views that drove the Norwegian gunman to carry out the massacre.

    Attorney General Eric Holder says the Justice Department has a central role to play in tackling the problem of youth violence, but some education experts are skeptical of the federal government’s hand in the matter. At the National Forum on Preventing Youth Violence held in Washington on Tuesday, Holder said that collaboration between the government and the localities, not working in isolation, would lead to a more effective solution for stopping violence among kids. Ron Stephens, the executive director of the National School Safety Center in California, said although he sees some value in this type of

    The World Economic Forum in Davos attracts a particular kind of financier and corporate honcho. The folks who flock to this out-of-the-way ski town in the Alps in January are plenty worried about the bottom line and their personal portfolios. But the true Davos Man (or woman) is one of parts -- interested in history, culture, poverty, and Big Global Issues. They want to be known and recognized as much for their public-mindedness as for their prowess in the boardroom and on the trading floor. In short, they want to be like George Soros. Hedge fund gazillionaire, scourge of the...

The reports of the death of my career are greatly exaggerated." While fans of Olbermann were shocked on Friday night when he announced his immediate departure from MSNBC, there was at least one person not surprised by the news: Glenn Beck. "You can...
