Don't think that's why, Kev...
Kevin Hassett: "I think there could be a little bit of an almost quiet time in the labor market, because firms are finding that AI is making their workers so productive that they don't necessarily have to hire the new kids out of college and so on."

They're using "talent" loosely.
The astronomical pay deal shows the light years to which firms will go in order to retain talent. It also highlights the potentially cataclysmic risk, as businesses see it, of talent loss econ.st/4nXT9Fl

“.. This has been an exhausting year, I’d say, for most CEOs .. The level of executive time that’s been put in this has been enormous. So instead of focusing on innovation, they’re focusing on how they deal with the tariffs.”

The administration is basically a Nazi employment program.
EXCLUSIVE: Paul Ingrassia says he is moving to a new job within the administration.
The conservative activist withdrew his nomination to oversee a govt. watchdog agency last month after POLITICO reported he made racist comments in a group chat.

I'm kind of surprised the WH didn't pressure Johnson to delay swearing Grijalva in.
I suppose they could have, and he stood his ground, which would also be surprising.

The sum total of JD Vance's career is a little over a year as a Senator and about a decade as Peter Thiel's sugar baby. He also ran 2 failed charities in Ohio.

In the last 40 days it apparently did not occur to anyone in the White House that the end of the shutdown would force Johnson to swear in Congresswoman Grijalva and thereby force a vote on releasing the Epstein files.
TRUMP IS SPIRALING
Trump once again calls Epstein's child sex trafficking ring the "Jeffrey Epstein Hoax" and tells Republicans to focus on other things instead.

Have we ever had a President and a VP who both lacked a sense of humor?
JD Vance: "I don't know if you saw this media circulating on social media, but the president met the president of Syria, al-Sharaa, in the Oval Office a couple of days ago, and he asked him, 'How many wives do you have?' Heh heh heh heh heh! Haaaaaa! Amazing comedic timing."

Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds
Democrats say that’s a nonstarter, arguing there are already limits on abortion access. The dispute could torpedo a deal, leading to higher health insurance premiums for millions.
