If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 98.5%.

🚨 The last jobs report before the midterms is a disaster.

Just 29,000 jobs added in September. Unemployment rose to 4.2%. July was revised down to a LOSS of 10,000 jobs, while August was revised down by 29,000 jobs, from 162,000 to 133,000.

Genius
There's a new wave of Democratic ads across the country that are somehow brutally partisan and incredibly effective and it's going to take some time for me to get used to this?
NEW AD: Are you a data center company looking to take over rural Texas?

Are you a crime-loving millionaire looking to throw the FBI off your scent?

Are you a child predator looking to get out of jail after just 1 day?

ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying.
The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened.
This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.

Directing DOJ to slow-walk politically damaging decisions until after people vote would be a major scandal under any normal administration. Here, it’s just Friday.
The White House is coordinating with the Justice Department to hide its abortion agenda from voters until after they've voted in order to try to influence the results of the election.

This is priceless.

Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith.

They found Jack Smith at the game…

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡

Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong.

Here's the whole sequence:

No words, except for Go Vote.
NEW: @apnews.com confirms that ICE has begun electronically "disappearing" people in the agency's custody who have final orders of removal.

As of last week, anyone jailed by ICE with a final order of removal will NOT appear in the ICE Online Detainee Locator System, making them effectively vanish.
