Every single newspaper that reported that Jane Doe “changed her story” should be rushing to publish retractions right now. This case should be a lesson in taking a DA’s victim-blaming statements at face value. Victims do not report to the police because they thought nothing happened to them.

Trumps Major Cuts Obliterate Collins Hope for Reelection Victory
Senator Susan Collins, the Republican representative from Maine, is facing a significant challenge as she gears up for her reelection campaign. The source of her political strength has traditionally been her ability to secure federal funds for her state. However, recent budget cuts instituted by the Trump administration have drastically undermined that strategy. The new fiscal year has ushered in a wave of spending reductions, with the Office of Management and Budget, led by director Russell Vought, announcing the cancellation of over $1 billion in approved federal funds.

I'm not sure who saw this coming, but so far nearly all the jobs created during the second Trump administration have gone to women.
Line chart titled "So far during Trump's second term, just 8% of all job growth has gone to men" showing change in employment by gender since January 2025. Total nonfarm employment grew by 776,000 jobs through September 2026, with women gaining 711,000 positions (92% of growth) while men added only 65,000 jobs (8% of growth). Women's employment gains accelerated sharply through 2026, reaching 711,000 by September, while men's employment growth remained flat with brief periods of decline, including a drop of 96,000 jobs in February 2026.

And so it continues... Our economic debates seem utterly disconnected from the reality. That reality: This is an economy mostly creating healthcare jobs, and it does so month after month, and everything else is just noise.
Line chart titled "Effectively all of the net job creation has been in healthcare and social assistance, and jobs are shrinking in the rest of the economy" showing change in non-farm payrolls since January 2025 through September 2026. Healthcare and social assistance added 998,000 jobs with consistent growth throughout the period, while the rest of the economy lost 222,000 jobs, meaning all net job creation came from healthcare. The rest of the economy showed particular weakness from May through August 2025 when losses reached 218,000 jobs. This striking divergence reveals an unusual concentration where one sector's growth of roughly 48,000 jobs per month has offset persistent contraction across all other industries combined.

An all around weak -- but not tragic -- payrolls report for September. +29k jobs created, about 60k below expectations. Revisions made both July and August look weaker, too. Over the past 3 months, we've an average of a mere +17k per month.

Apparently for the MAGA true believers, there is no discernible difference between Trump and Jesus, and the animating force that unites them is hatred for and a desire to exterminate Muslims (or you can substitute trans people, Blacks, Hispanics, gays, Indian-Americans... as necessary).
