Via Mike Konczal: Real wages just fell for the first time since 2022.
We got quarterly ECI this morning, which economists and the Fed follow closely for wage trends, and for Q3 it fell below inflation.
This is as inflation picks up, and the labor market and wages further weaken.

Wow- the corruption is astounding and right out in the open.
Quid, meet quo.
This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

It is almost as if the Bondi DOJ wants no one with public integrity working on public integrity
Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It should be a source of profound embarrassment that a bunch of FedSoc lifers are taking a more vocal and principled stand against the corrupt Eric Adams deal than most elected Dems.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case.

We are entering uncharted territory. Buckle up
I hope I'm wrong, that Pete Hegseth rises to the level of mediocre and the U.S. muddles through his tenure as SecDef. But the Senate confirmed an unserious man to hold one of the most serious jobs on the planet, and I am hard-pressed to see how this ends well.
