It's considered PARTISAN to reject maga delusions and lies now.

Actually it's considered terrorism now.

Kristi Noem praised for staring down' Antifa. It was a dozen reporters and a guy in a chicken suit

Trump has (unconstitutionally) declared antifa a terrorist organization.

J6ers are not the insurrectionists! They are to be rewarded! Protesting Trumpy is terrorism! Democrats are the insurrectionists and terrorists! That's goodthink. They the "enemy within" and are to be arrested! Especially that man in the chicken suit! How dare he appropriate our sacred chicken culture to make fun of Trumpy's Puppy Killer!

See how that works? It's "goodthink". It's doubleplusgood!

Only "duckspeak", from now on to be known as Trumpspeak, is to be tolerated in Trumplandia.

Now eat your eggs. But only if you can eat them correctly. And let us pee in your bathrooms!

Big Brother will be watching(soon).

U.S. Imports Slide 8.4% as China Trade Volumes Plunge Before Tariff Deadline
www.globaltrademag.com

... U.S. container imports fell sharply in September 2025, with total inbound volumes dropping 8.4% from August to 2,307,933 TEUs, according to Descartes Systems Group's latest Global Shipping Report. The decline -- the steepest monthly drop in recent years -- reflects importers' growing caution ahead of looming tariff changes and the expiration of the U.S.-China tariff truce.

China was the primary driver of the downturn, with import volumes plunging 12.3% month-over-month to 762,772 TEUs, a 22.9% year-over-year decrease.

Nearly all major product categories saw declines, led by aluminum and related articles (-43.8%), footwear (-33.9%), and electric machinery (-31.5%). Both knit and non-knit apparel categories fell more than 29%.

Furniture and bedding -- China's largest export category to the U.S. -- dropped 22.3% from a year earlier but continued to represent 14.5% of all China-origin shipments.

Descartes noted that global supply chains continue to face elevated uncertainty as tariff volatility intersects with broader geopolitical and logistical disruptions. ...


NFIB Small-Business Optimism Index Drops in September
finance.yahoo.com

... The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) released its Small-Business Optimism Index for September this morning, with the headline coming in negative for the first time in three months: -2.0 month over month to 98.8.

This is still above the survey average of 98, although the Uncertainty Index shot up +7 points to an even 100 -- the fourth-highest reading in the 52-year average of the index.

Supply Chain concerns, up +10 points month over month, topped the list, followed by Inflation.

A seasonally adjusted +31% of small businesses plan to raise prices in the next three months.

And +32% of jobs have gone unfilled in September, unchanged from the August figure.

This is not considered a major economic print, but it does provide more points on the graph adding up to a more-insecure economy at present. ...
