On the surface, the establishment survey print of 161K jobs was just good enough when taking into account the 44,000 in upward revisions to August and September jobs. However, the household survey was less impressive, with the number of workers employed declining by 43,000 to 151,925 even as the number of persons unemployed declined from 7,939K to 7,787K. So how did the unemployment rate drop? Because contrary to expectations that people are rushing back into the labor force, in October the number of Americans who were not in the labor force rose by a substantial 425,000 to 94,609, the highest...

When readers first sent this to us we thought, no way, not even Obama would be this lawless. But we were wrong. Barack Obama openly called on illegal aliens to vote in Tuesday’s election. The whole dam administration is lawless! They lie at every turn. They lied to get Obamacare passed. They lied about Benghazi. They lied about Hillary’s private server and emails. And now they are calling on illegal aliens to vote.The video comes from Cavuto. Video

I’m Gonna Ride the Chariot in the Morning, Lord! A Homily Msgr. Charles Pope • November 5, 2016 • In the readings today the Church presents us with a strong reminder and teaching on the resurrection. Jesus Himself leads the charge against those who would deny the resurrection from the dead, and the seven brothers and their mother from the first reading bring up the rear. Let’s take a look at what we are taught. I. Ridicule of the Resurrection – The Gospel opens with the observation that Some Sadducees, who deny there is a resurrection, came forward and...

Somewhere off U.S. 62 between Sharon, Pa., and Masory, Ohio, a sign reads, "You had your chance, it's our turn now." That homemade sign, located in the fault line of this election in the Mahoning Valley between Ohio and Pennsylvania, in all its simplicity found a way to capture the essence of this presidential cycle. In fact, it offered more insight into the discord between the American electorate and the governing elite than any pundit has been able to explain, let alone comprehend.

Republicans, particularly those of the establishment ilk, cozy with the big donors and other party elites, have been reluctant to join the Donald Trump train. Fearing a landslide defeat on election day, these Republicans felt it in their best political interests to steer far clear of the Trump Titanic so as not to see their political futures dragged to the bottom of the electoral sea. After sticking their fingers into the political winds, they decided the safer route would be to steer clear of Donald Trump, all in the hopes that come November 9, they could sit atop their high...

Moments of clarity are rare. They may be catalyzed by an intensely emotional event, or simply by the long, slow, relentless drip of a leaky faucet. Either way, when these moments occur, they can be transforming. I’ve been thinking about clarity in relation to this year’s presidential race since Friday when Deehra commented in relation to the Iraq War: “In a moment of clarity, a long and treacherous slog seemed inevitable…I still believe that in that moment, Trump became our future. I began to wonder, at what point did Trump himself have such a moment of clarity; the realization that...

Republican nominee Donald Trump will visit Michigan Sunday evening, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned. Trump will hold a rally at Freedom Hill in Sterling Heights, Mich., at approximately 6:00 pm Sunday evening, just thirty-some hours before Election Day. The campaign’s decision to visit Michigan at the eleventh hour reveals how they feel about a Michigan victory. The GOP nominee has been barnstorming the nation in the campaign’s final days, making four stops Saturday alone. Trump started the day in Tampa, Fla., before flying to North Carolina, where the polls show a tight race. The surging Trump departed from...

Trump 48.2 Hillary 42.6

Many thanks for bringing me to Stockholm and for conferring upon me the European Freedom Award. I am really honoured, because the growing loss of freedom is my main concern. Let me express my gratitude to the Institute for Direct Democracy in Europe, to its General Manager Laure Ferrari, to its Vice-President Peter Lundgren and to all of you for choosing me to be the very first laureate of this award. I have never got an award from a Brussels-based institution. It is a special feeling. It proves that there are also some freedom-friendly institutions in Brussels. Your decision, nevertheless,...

Executive Summary: Hillary and Bill Clinton have used their charity to collect funds from government and corporate services in exchange for political favors. The direct evidence of how the transactions occurred or what was given has not been fully explored. What we do know is that three governments have given to the Clinton Foundation Endowment without any specified goal. Those countries are Saudi Arabia, Oman, and the UAE. Qatar donated to the Cinton Global Initiative with no purpose specified for the money.

An allegory about China The popular TV program Office Girls https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Girls ran in 2011 on Taiwan TV. It is available now on DVD and on NetFlix Stream. The audio is in Mandarin but there are English subtitles. The translation is stilted with no vernacular. There is a much visited web site and the various musical themes are very popular and downloadable and on DVD. (I think…. The Web Site is in Mandarin and the Google translate rendering is often comically un understandable) Who cares? Who cares about a Chinese TV program that has subtitles? Good question. It is after all...

Putin's new 'super tank': British intelligence warns Russian vehicle is 'the most revolutionary change in tank design in the last half century' and leaves the West totally outgunned British military intelligence officers have issued a warning over a new Russian 'super tank' which they claim is far superior to anything which is available to Nato. The document claims that Britain's Challenger II main battle tank could be overpowered by the Kremlin's new Armata tank. Officials believe the new Russian tank is 'revolutionary' and blames the government for failing to provide a proper response. The current policy is to not consider...

Tonight in Reno, it was reported that Donald Trump was rushed off the stage at his rally. Since Trump is disliked so vehemently by some, it was immediately assumed that someone tried to assassinate Trump. Initial reports were that someone rushed the stage, someone else yelled “gun,” there was chaos and tackling, and then someone was arrested. Considering the insanity of this election cycle, who would actually be surprised if something like that were to happen? And given that insanity, it’s entirely reasonable that the Secret Service immediately hustled Trump off the stage until they could get to the bottom...

Only TWO, I repeat, TWO campaign events at which Hillary Clinton speaks in the final weekend of the election campaign. Actually, make that 1 1/4 speeches since 3/4 of Hillary's speech yesterday in Pembroke Pines in FL was cut short by rain. Think of it as Mother Nature's version of BleachBit deleting most of her speech. Today, or rather tonight, Hillary has one, count them, ONE, event in New Hampshire. That's it. Has any other political campaign for president had such a low energy final weekend for its candidate? And why no MSM coverage of her incredible LOW ENERGY final...

Jay-Z Drops The N-Word While Campaigning For Hillary Clinton Jay-Z finally headlined a concert for his b*tch and sister, Hillary Clinton in Cleveland Ohio, Friday. She was in attendance, actually. Remember how I told you about that last week? Remember how I wondered which wholesome songs he was planning on singing/rapping/doing whatever he does to inspire unity and bring a little class back to the campaign trail? Would he sing about ladies riding d*cks in “I Just Wanna Love You”? Or see how many nasty words he could say consecutively in “Ignorant Sh*t”? (In case you’re wondering, one line in...

Let's make this happen. We have to make it happen.

Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.(Psalm 2:1-4)According to the Divine Psalmist, the Kings of the Earth and the rulers have embarked on an all-encompassing liberation movement, seeking to use their influence to break society free from the “bands” and “cords” of the religion of the LORD and his...

Wilmington, N.C. — Melania Trump is campaigning once again for her husband, this time during a Saturday afternoon rally at the Wilmington International Airport. "I have known this man for 18 years. Donald is a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. He's strong, determined, bold and decisive," she said, reiterating the campaign slogan by telling voters her husband would make America great again. When Donald Trump began speaking, he quickly pulled Gov. Pat McCrory on stage, saying he has been "loyal to Trump from day one." "I want to thank your incredible governor. Get out and vote for him. He's a...

2,700-acre fire in North Georgia prompted officials to close some key trails in the Chattahoochee National Forest “It’s remote, very rugged, and we are extremely dry,” said Jeff Gardner, a ranger with the U.S. Forest Service who is based in Chatsworth. He said the fire, which is burning north of Ellijay and west of Blue Ridge, started from lightning.
