Kevin Hassett on the October jobs report: "We'll maybe be able to concoct something, but we'll never actually know for sure what the unemployment rate was in October."

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

Bluesky has become essential. Anyone who believes otherwise has their head stuck in their butt.
they have the suspect's car so he is on foot which is why brooklyn park is sheltering in place. they say if someone knocks on your door claiming to be police, call 911 to confirm they are actually a cop. brooklyn park officers are working in pairs to avoid confusion with the gunman
