I assume this historic, roaring economy is the only thing the media will talk about into the Midterms, right?

Can anyone on the internet find me a *single* human Republican (not an anonymous bot account) that was offended by AOC dancing.

This should not be hard, right?

This “scandal” was covered in Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, Reuters etc

So where’s the evidence?

Seriously.
Where is the evidence that *any* Republican was offended?

Where is the evidence that *any* Republican shamed her?

Where is the fact-check on this by the “Democracy Dies in Darkness” crowd?

These outlets are legitimately running fake stories to own the cons for AOC
It’s been remarkable the last few years to observe the beehive group-think mentality of the media on stories like this, Mueller, Russia, Trump, 2016.

No evidence. No facts. Just propaganda for the left, nicely packaged.

1. Create an imaginary monster
2. Slay imaginary monster

The establishment media promised us: “We will hold the powerful accountable.”

“Democracy Dies In Darkness,” they screamed.

Yet, when an obviously manufactured lie is propagated by the “new Obama” - watch what happens: they spoon feed the lie uncritically to readers.

President Trump has Often criticized Obama for having a 10 foot wall around his house.

Is this true?

I went to Obama’s neighborhood to find out.

Not only does Obama have a wall - he has 7 walls & armed SS police blocking the road 1000 feet in each direction.

So there’s that
Here’s the video:
Here’s the rest of my report on Obama’s wall

Trump rally in Florida. Starting soon. AF1 is on ground. Links to live stream. Let's roll

theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/11/03/pre…
The rally today in MT was great. Trump went off the cuff and just was ad libbing for the majority of the time. He is the best when he does that. He had me laughing for 30 minutes straight. We will see what tonight brings.
.... VP pence surprise guest for rally. .....

Are you kidding me! Look at the October Jobs Report. Yet we are going to lose the House? These people are out of their
2) minds. I put my money where my mouth is.

I placed an $850 bet last night on Predictit.org. If we keep the House, I get $2,264. The site is infested with Leftists that have drank the entire Kool-Aid. Right now $0.36 gets you back a dollar.

3) From the article linked above:

The rapidly growing economy generated a robust 250,000 new jobs in October, keeping the unemployment rate

at a 48-year low and pushing the increase in worker pay to the highest level in more than nine years.

Happy #JobsDay! 8:30 ET @BLS_gov delivers most important signals abt how economy is changing

Expectations:
+208K jobs. If >0, extends longest streak of monthly job creation on record to 8 years+1 month (graph). Progress so steady over so many years.

Big question: wage growth?

Challenge Accepted. I have decided to Fact Check this thread full of outright lies, half truth and data misrepresentation. I will make 2013/2014 my base year for most of the comparative analysis so that we can know where we are coming from.

"Issa Thread" #DemocracyDay
Claim 1- Nigeria's GDP growth rate is back up after the recession of 2016-17. It's important to note that it is yet to get back to about 3% growth we had just before hand over with lower oil prices then (than we do today). Fail. 2014 Growth rate. Source: CBN.
Claim 2 -The @MBuhari Administration’s priority Sectors of Agriculture and Solid Minerals maintained consistent growth throughout the recession.

FALSE. This is the chart for Agriculture GDP during the recession Source: NBS.

1. It's NOT time for some game theory when it comes to Jay Z v. @realDonaldTrump on the issue of black unemployment, because -- like so many things involving Trump -- it's not complicated, it's just so wrong in so many ways.. So unfortunately, we need a THREAD.
2. Here's some categories: a. Trump doesn't deserve the credit for low unemployment. Yellen (the woman he essentially fired) does. b. These numbers don't tell the whole story and they should be a lot better. c. Trump's policies are consistently anti-jobs (and black jobs).
3. First a recap. Jay-Z appeared on the #VanJonesShow and @VanJones68 presented Trump's claim that Black people should be happy because he's delivering jobs. Jay-Z basically said that nothing can justify a broad assault on the civil rights of Black people
