Walmart plans to hire fewer employees this holiday season amid a backdrop of uncertain economic conditions.
The Arkansas-based retailer announced on Wednesday that plans to add 40,000 seasonal and full-time workers across the company before the holiday shopping season gets underway. This includes seasonal store associates, full-time, permanent truck drivers and customer care associates.
“As we prepare to serve customers this season, we’ll begin, as usual, by offering additional hours to current associates who want them,” Walmart said in a statement.
Walmart said in September of last year that it would hire 150,000 workers for the holiday season.

Existing home sales fall in August, and prices soften significantly

Sales of previously owned homes fell 0.4% in August from July to a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 4.80 million units, according to the National Association of Realtors.
That is the slowest sales pace since June 2020, when activity stalled very briefly due to the start of the pandemic.
Outside of that, it is the slowest pace since November 2015.

This is diabolical. If this were my dear dead son, I would be launching a law suit against the Biden Coup and the media for pushing this false “right wing extremist” narrative, and how they are a threat to democracy. These lunatics on the left are NOT capable of observing and thinking for themselves. They listen to these traitors running the country and run with whatever lies they are fed. This killer probably feels quite good - like a martyr for the cause of saving democracy.
This is spiraling out of control, very quickly.
Mornin’ Gran. And all.
Good morning, Judy!
Can you imagine it Trump had declared half the nation “left wing extremists?”
The howling and outcry would have been humongous.
However, as it is turning out, he would have been correct.
Good morning, exit. You are welcome.
If Biden took the border crisis as seriously as congressional Republicans do, we'd have put an end to this crisis a long time ago. We have serious plans to get this crisis under control and stop the dangers to our national security. pic.twitter.com/NJrOKhPp8Z— Congresswoman Kat Cammack (@RepKatCammack) September 21, 2022

Tell me 'bout the good old days
Sometimes it feels like
This world's gone crazy
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday
Where the line between right and wrong
Didn't seem so hazy
Thank you so much. My son has crippling back and foot injuries and is bipolar. He still works and carries on, but has bad times understandably. He is a Trump fan and news junkie like us, and gets upset at how things are going like many do. I tell him not to watch news so much if it gets upsetting, take a brake like I do occasionally.

Putin had a phone conversation with Biden last year. Putin stated that he would declare war if the US provided Ukraine with long range missiles, Moscow is minutes away from Ukraine. Biden promised not to do that. The deal has been broken by the US, the long range missiles have been secretly delivered. Congratulations to the foolish people in our government who provoked the war in the first place. They are absolutely crazy and care nothing for the citizens of either country.
Here is the real Zelenski, not the hero he is made out to be by the fake media. There are many other like photos, so you can see why this crazy current administration backed him to be president.

The short term relief from Biden's irresponsible looting of our strategic reserve didn't even last until election day. He threw away our energy security for nothing.— steve hilton (@SteveHiltonx) September 21, 2022
Excellent. Thanks, Gran.

Cute. I found a orphan coyote pup once. He was so cute, I cared for him until he was old enough to make it on his own.

Crude prices remain higher this morning ahead of the official inventory data, but have pared gains from overnight anxiety related to Putin’s escalating war rhetoric, as traders focused more on the impact of The Fed.
“Macro markets are definitely the elephant in the room right now with rates and the dollar really keeping a lid on crude rallies,” said Rebecca Babin, a senior energy trader at CIBC Private Wealth Management.
Adding to bearish sentiment, China issued a giant new quota to export refined fuels, according to a local industry consultant, which could weigh on oil product markets.
Confirming API’s data, the official inventory data showed crude stocks rising for the 3rd straight week and inventory builds across the entire complex..
The 1.14 million-barrel build in commercial crude stockpiles was more than offset by the withdrawal of 6.9 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

Awww. So nice. Thank you.
The so-called Presidential Election Reform Act is Dems' next partisan ploy to tip the electoral process in their favor.
It allows candidates to sue for an extended voting period that would continue AFTER AN ELECTION IS OVER, opening our system to abuse by Democrat operatives.— Rep. Claudia Tenney (@RepTenney) September 20, 2022
Yes Judy, if I was his parent I would too.
