Government Workers Say They're Getting Inundated With Religion in c/usa@midwest.social
[–] 1 point 6 months ago

So what is to stop an ordinary employee from sending out a company wide email talking about their faith in Allah? Or 50 employees sending messages out about their religions?

Other than the fact that anybody who is not the director of the agency would be fired for expressing their religious views. Which means this is not at all about freedom of expressing religious views.

    Trump’s Iran War Leaves the US Looking Weakened to Adversaries in c/usa@midwest.social
    [–] 2 points 6 months ago*

    The US military wasn't shown to be weak. The Trump administration was shown to be unbelievably incompetent and weak. Trump's action have given Iran control of the Hormuz straight, and they are going to become rich and powerful making everybody else pay them a toll to use it. In other words Trump just permanently increased fuel prices for the rest of our lives, which will permanently inflate all other goods for the rest of our lives.

    Another thing to remember is that Trump launched his war one day after the Epstein files revealed that a 13 year old girl accused Trump of rape. Trump launched an entire war (that had terrible costs and consequences for the USA) to preempt the media from talking about his pedo accusations

    [“We are big Trump supporters, all of us. Everybody,”]

    It's ironic that all the people who tried to kill Trump are ex Trump supporters who finally realized how much he lies rather than the people who always knew Traitorapist Trump was a piece of shit.

    Trump understands that their is no chance whatsoever of an actual conviction and no competent ethical lawyers would have been involved with this, and therefore the 'perp walk' was the top thing Treason Trump was hoping to get out of doing this.

    Private payrolls declined in September by 32,000 in key ADP report in c/usa@midwest.social
    [–] [S] 8 points 1 year ago

    The government shutdown is not the actual reason why the BLS is not releasing the already compiled job loss numbers. Trump said before the shutdown that wasn't going to release the numbers. And the reason why is obvious. Trump's incompetence caused job losses starting in August and increasing 10 fold in September. Everything Traitorapist Trump touches turns into shit. Nobody in his government is remotely qualified for their jobs starting at the top.

    Private payrolls declined in September by 32,000 in key ADP report (www.cnbc.com)
     

    Companies shed a seasonally adjusted 32,000 jobs during the month, the biggest slide since March 2023, payrolls processing firm ADP reported Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for an increase of 45,000.

    In addition to the drop in September, the August payrolls number was revised to a loss of 3,000 from an initially reported increase of 54,000.

    The report comes as the funding impasse in Washington, D.C., has led to the first government closure since late 2018 into early 2019. Failing a deal over the next two days, the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ nonfarm payrolls report for September will not be released, nor will the Labor Department put out the weekly jobless claims count on Thursday. The last time the BLS payrolls report was delayed was in 2013.

    Federal Reserve officials count on the payrolls releases as they make decisions on interest rates. The Fed next meets Oct. 28-29, meaning there won’t be another payrolls report before then.

    The general can still fight on the correct side when it comes to civil war.

    How. He's going to get out his little Glock and shoot at policemen?

    ut now he can no longer be coerced into giving orders to murder innocent people and it’s unlikely his family is deported or murdered as retaliation for him sabotaging or refusing an order.

    Would you stop with the nonsense? Trump doesn't have any powers to deport Americans especially family members of the military.

    Musk, Thiel and Bannon named in Epstein docs released by Dems (www.axios.com)
     

    Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Steve Bannon are all named in copies of Jeffrey Epstein's daily schedules released Friday by Democrats on the House Oversight Committee.

    Why it matters: The schedules make reference to Musk possibly flying to an "island" in 2014, and Thiel and Bannon apparently dining with Epstein as recently as 2017 and 2019, respectively.

    The Trump administration will launch a program next year to find out how much money an artificial intelligence algorithm could save the federal government by denying care to Medicare patients. (www.nbcnews.com)

    “Shared savings arrangements mean that vendors financially benefit when less care is delivered,” a structure that can create a powerful incentive for companies to deny medically necessary care, said Jennifer Brackeen, senior director of government affairs for the Washington State Hospital Association.

    And doctors and policy experts say that’s only one concern.

    Rathi said the plan “is not fully fleshed out” and relies on “messy and subjective” measures. The model, he said, ultimately depends on contractors to assess their own results, a choice that makes the results potentially suspect.

    Bureau of Labor Statistics postpones key data report (www.axios.com)
     

    The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Friday postponed the release of a key annual report central to future inflation data.

    Why it matters: The BLS — charged with collecting critical data on employment, prices and more — did not explain the reasoning for the delay or when it might ultimately be released. There is heightened concern about the future of U.S. statistics, including the politicization and accuracy of crucial data that affects the stock market and interest rates.
