When Republicans become aware there’s few stories that’ll take people away from the Epstein files they declassify swastikas, nooses and Confederate flags as hate symbols for a temporary distraction.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

This is the reporter that Donald Trump called "Piggy." She is Catherine Lucey, currently with Bloomberg.

I don't think it is a coincidence that, back in 2018, Lucey was the first reporter to ask Trump about Stormy Daniels. Trump responded with a lie, but, clearly, did not forget the question.

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released emails Wednesday, including one from 2019 in which disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein alleged that Trump "knew about the girls."

Democrats assert the emails "raise serious questions" about Trump and his knowledge of Epstein's sex crimes.

These 8 Senators are just following their Dear Leader.

He’s trying to rob the treasury of $230M as retribution for being investigated for crimes, so of course they are going to try to do the same!
They probably want kudos for showing restraint & only trying to steal $500k each!

@neguse.house.gov: "I think it is outrageous for these Republican senators to effectively guarantee themselves million-dollar paydays, a provision in this bill that very clearly applies to them. ... This is insanity to allow this provision to go forward"

When the world stops trusting your money, the fall comes fast.

• Massive debt & reckless spending are shaking investor confidence
• Foreign banks are quietly moving away from the dollar
• Countries are trading in other currencies—dedollarization is real

The US dollar’s dominance isn’t guaranteed.

The job market is getting really bad out there. Please take care of one another. Buy local. Value people over convenience.
US job market is now 'no hire, more fire'
The U.S. labor market has been characterized as a 'no hire, no fire' landscape for much of the past year. But 'no hire, more fire' increasingly looks more accurate, providing further ammunition for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.
