    HYPERLINK has full article

    snip

    The Labor Department reported last week that average hourly earnings for all employees actually declined 3% in September from the same month a year ago

    end snip

    Sadly, the lower-income folks who the Democrat party claim to care about, get hurt the most from Democrat policies.

    Nothing more need be said going into the mid-terms. One simply need ask, "how do you like your pay cut courtesy of Democrat policies" ?

    The only retort the Democrat party has is claiming that the GOP wants to let babies live and supports horn-wearing people who took selfies on Jan 6, 2021

    Which item do you think hits home with more folks?

    No worries all. Our liberal friends will be here soon to enlighten us that this was due to Trump and the Democrats will make sure to spend our way out of this Trump mess. You all know radical spending and unfunded liabilities are the cure for inflation.... :democrat::deadhorse:

    And while Biden and the Dems are destroying the paychecks of the American Worker, connected Dems are hiring each other's girlfriends and paying them up to a quarter million a year.

    Mayor Adams, NYC Schools Chief Hire Each Other’s Girlfriends
    [​IMG]
    It pays to have friends in high places...

    The Teacher's unions are Dems most powerful union and they view that taxpayer as cow to be milked.

    'Shortly after NYC Mayor Eric Adams hired NYC Schools Chancellor David Banks’ longtime girlfriend, Sheena Wright, as a deputy mayor, Banks quietly promoted Adams’ longtime girlfriend, Tracey Collins, to a top post at the Department of Education, The New York Post reported.'

    'As the DOE’s senior advisor to the deputy chancellor of school leadership, Collins received a hefty pay bump to $221,597 in July. She had been a school administrator with the DOE since 2008, making $173,710 in 2020, The Post reported.'

    'Wright, now deputy mayor for strategic initiatives, is one of five women deputy mayors hired by Adams. It’s unclear what Wright makes since taking office in early 2022, but in 2021, deputy mayors pulled in $251,982.'

    'Wright had been president and CEO of United Way of New York City, a nonprofit that helps low-income New Yorkers. The two women now receive a collective pay of $473,579'

    I wish they worked as hard for the American Worker as they do to feather their own nests.

    Not surprised, he has little to no moral standards. This is the same Eric Adams that used racial slurs agaunst white NYPD officers.

    Free pass for liberals and criminals, just not the citizens.

    It's actually interesting that a newly elected president can cause inflation the very second he sets foot in the WH. Wouldn't you think that economic policy would have to be implemented first before inflation will kick in?

    Now, in the real world (not the hyperpartisan FJB echo chamber), inflation actually lags economic policy by 1 to 1 1/2 years. So, current inflation is on Biden. Inflation in 2/21 was not. Of course, a lot of the FJB crowd believes that correlation means causation -- when it suits their purpose.

    Not really. When you are as stupid as he and his Administration are, it's quite easy to get inflation:

    Increase demand, restrict and/or cut supply and print money. What you get is inflation that tops over 14% since Joe Biden and his Administration took control.

    Add wage income that cannot keep up with this and the standard of living goes way down. It's killing the Middle Class worst of all.

    Biden is a bumbling fool and his Administration enjoys high gas prices and inflicting pain on Americans. It's class warfare by the untouchable liberal elite.

    He started day one with his executive orders and followed up shortly thereafter with his continuation of COVID benefits and then his BBB spending and ending fossils fuels policies. He was warned.and he sloughed it off.

    Exactly, the left pretends like Brandon hasn’t taken actions to create this despite how one can specifically point to them.

    He ran on and they elected him on his claims only HE could save the economy and improve our lives and now that he has done exactly the opposite the all want to say "OH a president has no effect on anything". The duplicity is unbelievable.

    Dems will keep cutting our wages until we vote them out.

    Emerson: GOP momentum is real, and it's spectacular

    [​IMG]
    Turning Point.

    'The economy remains the top issue in determining the Midterm Election vote for 44% of voters, followed by abortion acces [sic] (12%), and threats to democracy (11%).'

    'A majority of voters (63%) have cut back on food or groceries this month, while 37% say they have not.'

    Kimball said, “Of the 63% who have cut back on food or groceries this month, 60% disapprove of the job Biden is doing as president, 52% plan to vote for the Republican congressional candidate in the midterm election.”

    But, J6!
