Were the others the illegals Biden imported: Much of the gain seemed to come from one state — New York, where claims more than doubled to 30,043, according to unadjusted data. The increase may have been due to spring recess in New York public schools, according to Sam Tombs, chief U.S. economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics. “Nonetheless, the deterioration in the timeliest hiring and firing indicators over the last couple weeks suggests that jobless claims will trend up over coming weeks,” Tombs said in a note. The District of Columbia, which had seen a sharp increase earlier this year amid President Donald Trump’s efforts to shrink the federal government payroll, saw a modest rise last week. The report comes amid several trouble signs for the economy, though the labor market has remained stable. Despite the rise in the claims, the longer-term trend remains intact. The four-week moving average climbed 5,500 to 226,000, largely in line with recent trends. Trends that have been ongoing since 2022

Both. The answer is both can be true. And it the last 7 years - 8 if you want to include the Tyrod playoff team.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha “Even now.” Lol. TDS bubble world thinks people souring on Trump. They have no clue. The American people know (except Boomers) exactly why we are where we are. They know what the Democrats are. They know what Trump wants to do and what he’s up against.

How’s business in Western New York? Anything on the horizon? Manufacturing doesn’t mean 1940 assembly lines. -

I want the IRS abolished. The tax code reformed. Under 200K pay no taxes. Deregulate everything imaginable. Cut corporate taxes. Tax imports. Because we should be able to make what we need here. Not outsourced to the CCP. Which ultimately, should be the goal. Not be at the mercy of Communist China. -

Remember the great crash that followed the 1922 Fordeny-McCumber tariff? Yea me neither….. …Consider tariff rates. Although the late Gottfried Haberler claimed in the 1970s that Smoot-Hawley had pushed tariffs to “skyscraper” heights, that is an exaggeration. It is hard to generalize about a bill that raised tariff rates on literally hundreds of separate items, but Irwin estimates that Smoot-Hawley raised the average tariff on imports subject to the tariff by 15–18 percent, an increase of about 6 percentage points. Irwin contrasts this increase with that caused by the Fordney-McCumber tariff bill of 1922, which raised the average tariff rate by a whopping 64 percent, or 13 percentage points. Of course, we had a boom in the 1920s, which is further evidence against the idea that tariff increases per se had much to do with economic decline. https://www.cato.org/regulation/fall-2011/book-review-peddling-protectionism-smoot-hawley-great-depression -

I think you should look deeper into “U.S. protectionist policies.” Specifically - the Inflation Reduction Act -

4th and Gone. That’s pretty much your M.O. You supported the Weekend At Bernie’s President. Among other things, that disqualifies you from life. -

An economy whose GDP is propped up by government spending —- for 30 years - is not an economy. It’s the end of the middle class. Things Democrats said 25 years ago. But they’re full fledged CCP commies now. The markets weren’t phased by the GDP news today - bc they were already factoring that in during the Great Recession of April 2 to April 21. -

All going to plan baby. -
I’d like to draft a “stud” WR to. Not a mid one. The WGR guys are arguing about getting one in the 3rd or 4th round this year….maybe they’d have said round 2. From 2023 - a class that was ok - but better then 2025. Who on this list from round 3-7 (other then Nucua who everyone passed on bc he’s got injury history) would we want? Who we losing sleep over missing out on?? Beane is right. You want to NEAR guarantee yourself an ELITE WR you need to be picking early in the draft, sacrifice tons of capital to move up, or spend and take on salary - which still likely would require a trade. Seeing this list, and considering how weak the WR class is and the needs on D - pretty much every position - the approach for 2025 was acceptable. This 2023 draft is just a reference to give you an idea of the quality of WR typically available in rounds 3-7. Go back and look at the recent drafts rounds 3-7 and you’ll see similar or worse. FYI in this draft the Packers also drafted Jayden Reed. They took 3 WRs. This year they took another WR in round 1. Passing up on Starks or a CB which they definitely need. Just dumb.

Define pollution. I’d like to not have toxic waste in our drinking water. But if they want to tax you per mile bc you drive a gas guzzling 4x4, you go right ahead and tell us you’re good with that. They used the “Clean Water” or “Clean Air” acts as justification for every “negative” externality. Communism.
