Fortunately for the viewers and for Amazon, its brass had a change of heart.

President Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order creating a new classification of “policy-making” federal employees that could strip swaths of the federal workforce of civil service protections just before the next president is sworn into office. The order would create a new Schedule F within the excepted service of the federal government, to be composed of “employees in confidential, policy-determining, policy-making, or policy-advocating positions,” and instructs agency heads to determine which current employees fit this definition and move them—whether they are members of the competitive service or other schedules within the excepted service—into this new classification.

With less than two weeks left before the 2020 presidential election, former White House deputy chief of staff Karl Rove said it would be more “effective” for the Trump campaign to focus on the economy as opposed to the Hunter Biden “scandal.” Rove made the statement on “America’s Newsroom” on Wednesday shortly after Trump 2020 Campaign National Press Secretary Hogan Gidley appeared on the program and explained the campaign strategy to focus on Hunter Biden and his international business dealings to attack Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

President Trump is expected to bring former Hunter Biden associate Tony Bobulinski as his guest to the final presidential debate Thursday night, Fox News has learned.

As part of the Second Lady’s military spouse awareness campaign, Karen Pence champions occupational licensing reform and recognizes it as a key action to address military spouse employment challenges. Today, approximately one third of military spouses work in fields that require a state-issued professional license or certification in order to practice their professions. Additionally, military spouses move on average every two to three years and those frequent moves and state licensing change requirements have led to significant expenses, lost wages, and gaps in employment. Today, Mrs. Pence continues to collaborate with government, private, and non-profit organizations to create employment solutions for our nation’s military spouses.Below...

Where is the link to Trump's unedited 60 minutes Stahl interview. Needs to be front and center

The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday approved Gilead Sciences’ antiviral drug remdesivir as a treatment for the coronavirus. In May, the FDA granted the drug an emergency use authorization, allowing hospitals and doctors to use the drug on patients hospitalized with the disease even though the drug has not been formally approved by the agency. The intravenous drug has helped shorten the recovery time of some hospitalized Covid-19 patients. It was one of the drugs used to treat President Donald Trump, who tested positive for the virus earlier this month.

This is a link to a critically important message regarding “Catholic” Joe Biden. It is delivered by Fr. Ed Meeks showing point-by-point how diametrically opposed Joe Biden, along with the Democratic party, is to the clear teachings of the Church (and Bible). He speaks to Catholics, but this is one of the clearest messages delineating what the “Abyss” really looks like. His message is critically important to ALL Christians. Keep in mind you won’t hear this from the controlling liberal leftist media, or from the leftist debate moderators, so it is extremely important to quickly spread the word to others.

But we, as well as several other outlets, reported on it. And as we noted, the report still got ( plenty of eyes on it). Despite the censorship, the New York Post's Biden story drew 2.6 million views in nearly a week and was the top story about the election on Facebook and Twitter, New York Post columnist Miranda Devine explained.

Super Heavyweight and Flyweight in a Cosmic Dance Volunteer distributed computing project Einstein@Home discovers neutron star in unusual binary system. After more than two decades, an international research team led by the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute; AEI) in Hannover has identified a Galactic “mystery source” of gamma rays: a heavy neutron star with a very low mass companion orbiting it.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday there is no need for a Russia-China military alliance now, but noted it could be forged in the future. Putin's statement signaled deepening ties between Moscow and Beijing amid growing tensions in their relations with the United States. The Russian leader also made a strong call for extending the last remaining arms control pact between Moscow and Washington. Asked during a video conference with international foreign policy experts Thursday whether a military union between Moscow and Beijing was possible, Putin replied that “we don't need it, but, theoretically, it’s quite possible to imagine it.”...

Biden’s campaign is in panic mode over Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell that is slowing dripping out damning emails in one of the best October surprises ever. -------snip------ Biden’s campaign spox released a statement ahead of tonight’s debate in an effort to do some damage control because Biden is going to get buried by Trump. “If we see tonight from Donald Trump these attacks on Vice President Biden’s family, I think we need to be very, very clear that what he’s doing here is amplifying Russian misinformation,” Biden’s campaign spox Kate Bedingfield said.

A Florida lawyer is accused of being a “serial bank robber,” who was busted this week as he allegedly headed to his sixth raid, federal prosecutors said. Aaron Honaker, 41, is accused of holding up five Miami banks since Sept. 30 — but only successfully getting cash in two of them, and even then only $1,850, the US Attorney’s office said. He was arrested after a detective spotted him downtown Tuesday — and was carrying a hammer and demanded notes as he confessed to heading to another planned robbery at a TD Bank, according to the Miami Herald, citing the...
