Inflation numbers came out today, and the official story is that inflation went down. What the headline number doesn't tell you is that the government changed how inflation is calculated in the same release. A month ago, they said July inflation was 3.7%. Today, they recalculated July with the new formula and it dropped to 3.36%. If you measure August the same way as the months before it, inflation comes out around 3.8%, which means it went up. They didn't bring inflation down, they just changed how they calculate it.
Bessent did something similar with CPI last month. You only modify the way you calculate if they numbers are that bad. They genuinely thought we wouldn't notice...

🚨 CNN just accidentally debunked an Israeli false flag operation!! 🤣🫠
“Some of the numbers we are seeing reported don’t make any sense because if you are descending that rapidly, the aircraft would’ve disintegrated completely”.

They’re just saying it out loud
The Israel Lobby's Mark Dubowitz insists that the US and Israeli militaries must be merged so tightly that any actions taken by a future administration against Israel "will impose costs on the US itself."
Our relationship needs to be intertwined to "such an extent that inflicting financial harm on Israel would also carry a significant cost for Washington," he wrote in a column earlier this month.
This is the real goal behind Section 219 of the NDAA—turning America into a dependent slave colony of Israel.

BIG WIN for making the Epstein Files public

The fact that Ukraine stopped destroying Russia's oil refineries FOR TRUMP even while Russia ramps up the destruction of Ukraine's power plants isn't enough for Putin's dog in the White House.
Again, spends the day again berating Ukraine for the high fuel prices that are actually caused by his war in Iran.

The Senate went home.
They DIDN’T pass a Farm Bill. It didn’t even come on the floor for a vote.
Farmers are in crisis. Families are struggling. Food banks are serving more people than ever.
Washington failed us.
Tom Cotton wants the war in Iran and high gas and diesel prices.
I want to save Arkansas farms and feed hungry families.
I’m a farmer and a board member of Arkansas’s largest hunger-relief organization. I’ll fight for more markets for our farmers and affordable, healthy Arkansas-grown food for our families.
I’m asking for your vote.
This isn’t about party. It’s about what’s right and what makes economic sense for Arkansas.
Early voting starts October 19.
Election Day is November 3.

ICYMI — Hegseth and Trump are turning the 🇺🇸 military into a Christian army. Seems like this should be a bigger deal 🤷🏼
(As we accuse other countries of being religious fanatics)

One of the biggest Jewish advocacy organizations in the U.S. brands me antisemitic for using Grok to uncover facts and demands I be heavily punished.
They want Grok investigated for being “complicit” and say they have me under constant surveillance.
Seems I hit a nerve.

Does anyone care that the Bureau of Economic Analysis updated its methodology for calculating inflation in 3 components of the PCE that trimmed the Aug. YoY change by a few tenths of a percentage point? Or, is the headline all that matters? I'm sure the Fed is aware of this, no?
U.S. CONSUMER SPENDING SURGES AS CORE INFLATION COOLS
Inflation-adjusted U.S. consumer spending jumped 0.6% in August, its strongest monthly increase since March 2025.
Meanwhile, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge rose 0.3% MoM, with core PCE increasing just 0.2%.
Resilient consumer demand alongside softer underlying inflation complicates the Fed’s decision on another rate hike in October.

Shamelessly staged photo with a carport out the window, stained sofa, old raggety toys, barefoot child in the shirtwaist gingham dress...it's almost as if she wants us to believe they're poor? Unfuckingbeliveable.

A Ruling That Can Only Be Described as Pure Evil
On Tuesday, in an unsigned emergency order that reads like a permission slip for suffering, the far-right Roberts Supreme Court cleared the way for third-country deportations. Immigrants can now be dumped in countries they have never lived in — places the U.S. itself has accused of torture and abuse — without a real chance to object.
The order lets the sadistic authoritarian Trump administration restart its Nazi-inspired rapid-removal machine: people shipped to Liberia, Equatorial Guinea, the Central African Republic, and other dumping grounds, often with little notice and no meaningful hearing. The destination is not their home. The risk is persecution, torture, and death. The Court did not bother to explain itself. The three liberal justices dissented.
This is not a technical stay. It is a green light for a policy whose whole design is to terrorize people by sending them somewhere worse than the place they fled. If cruelty were not the point, they would not need the midnight order.
