A sharply divided Federal Reserve cut interest rates on Wednesday but signaled borrowing costs are unlikely to drop further in the near term as it awaits clarity on the direction of a job market showing signs of softening, inflation that "remains somewhat elevated" and an economy it sees picking up steam next year.
Fed Chair Jerome Powell pointed on Wednesday to a job-market risk that economists have been worried about for months: Official statistics could be drastically overstating recent hiring. Powell said that Fed staffers believe that federal data could be overestimating job creation by up to 60,000 jobs a month. Given that figures published so far show that the economy has added about 40,000 jobs a month since April, the real number could be something more like a loss of 20,000 jobs a month, Powell said.
President Donald Trump's youngest son is reportedly a fan of a woman-hating influencer accused of rape and human trafficking. Barron Trump, 19, admired divisive manosphere figure Andrew Tate, 39, and spoke with him last year, their mutual friend Justin Waller told The New York Times. Waller, a close ally of Andrew and his brother Tristan, identified himself as their "third brother" on top of playing a "big brother" to Barron. Barron spoke to Andrew Tate over Zoom last year while getting a suit fitted by Waller's tailor, according to the outlet.

The ranks of U.S. government statisticians have been gutted in the past year due to layoffs and buyouts. That along with diminished funding and attacks on their independence have put at risk the data used to make informed decisions about everything from the nation's economy to its demographics, according to a new report from outside experts released Wednesday.

Besides veteran employees with deep institutional knowledge, some of the cuts hit new hires meant to infuse new blood into the agencies, said the annual report. Read more
