Here is this dynamic slightly different: the 12-month change going back to 2022-23. Health care jobs are just chugging along as normal during this time, maybe slowing a bit into 2026. It's the rest of the labor market that fell into negative territory in 2025, that also took men into 0 job growth.

Hassett: "One of the metrics of shelter costs that I find most interesting is that they're going down pretty rapidly in places like California because everybody is leaving.

WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Rutte "You sit next to Trump when he talks about conquering Greenland, lashes out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"

I’m not suggesting we start at zero. And I’m also not suggesting this is the only answer. We first have to add four seats. Then set senior status to 18 years applied to the current court, then have new appointments staggered every two years.

Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."

Proud Boy Enrique Tarrio says the quiet part out loud: Even if Trump scraps the Anti-Weaponization Fund, the DOJ could still settle separate lawsuits brought by Jan. 6 Capitol attackers —potentially handing out millions in taxpayer dollars to people who participated in the attack.

Interesting study, but I'm surprised that they don't mention language (at least in the article). The primary language center in the brain usually occupies the right/opposite hemisphere of the brain. They even mention that parrots are usually "handed", and they also have a strong language ability.

i am all for having any sexual predator removed from office no matter their partisanship, and no matter their level of office held. Now let the GOP and all their supporters apply this standard to Donald Trump.

A French general just looked at Trump’s plan to build a runway inside Iran to fly out uranium under active bombing. His response: “American officials should stop snorting cocaine between meetings.”

"I am comforted slightly by the fact we have a commander in chief who appreciates and supports our military. What fills in the gap is my faith in our commander in chief" -- the Trump fluffing on Fox News is out of control today on the heels of news that an F-15 has gone down in Iran
