The Squawk Box consensus of the disappointing jobs report is that it shows a weaker economy but not a weak one. That said, I share their belief that Team Trump will want to re-think their trade wars in order to keep the economy perking until the fall of 2020.
Do let me add, last Christmas Trump had a valid point that the Fed was on the wrong path; they have since become more accommodating, as they indicated at the end of January.

Happy #BestFriendsDay to my friend, @BarackObama.
============================
Now, let's consider this. Someone had to MAKE those bracelets. And someone thought it was a great idea to add a photo of them to this tweet.
Biden must have the most juvenile people on his campaign staff. Twitter wants to know if this is begging for an endorsement or threatening to reveal what he knows about Obama's doings to the Justice Department if no endorsement shows up.

That Joshua Mitchell essay clarice quotes is interesting but I think wrong on one main point.
Identity politics never exhausts its scapegoats so that it has to move on to new ones. They will never run out of white heterosexual men to demonize because there is never any mechanism for redemption or victory in the leftist ideology, there is only a largely static hierarchy they conjure up.
Identity politics is nothing more than Marx's bourgeoisie vs the proletariat wrapped up in Frankfurt school social nihilism.
Just as a Lenin or Stalin could still play the ever vigilant guardian of the victimized workers of the world even while wielding absolute power, so the New Victims would be ever on their guard against white heterosexuals revictimising them even were the New Victims sitting atop an unassailable dictatorship of the fluid gendered proletariat.
Their retarded historical determinism locks them into a permanent caste system that can never really alter and never really needs new forms of sacrifice because the guilt of their old ones can never be expiated only punished.
Like Christianity they posit the existence of original sin but unlike Christianity they impute it selectively rather than universally and provide no means of redemption for the "guilty". Those of disfavored identity are condemned to eternal damnation. They can make their kow-tow and achieve a status similar to a trustee in prison, as obsequious straight white progs now do, but can never be rid of the ball and chain of inbred guilt.

Clarice,
Not as tired as I thought. Is the man on page 2 the same one I linked to who may have killed 93 women?
He's in prison and cooperating.
MM,
I think the same intelligence scheme we used in Syria to go after ISIS would work in Mexico. No need to involve the Mexican courts.

Bravo on the 9:42 Ig.
The use of innate characteristics to define the “fronts” in the war means nobody can escape it. Which, of course, is exactly what makes it dangerous, and induces extremism.
Happily, we’re starting to see it consume itself - e.g. the trannies destroying women’s sports. Faster please.

That HSBC money laundering article is from 2012. Seven years, we've known about this BS.
I found that original Esquire article by the surgeon who watched an abortion. It's a hard hard read and I'm shocked it wasn't removed from the archives. The mother to be was Jamaican by the way.

Highly recommend MM's 10:33 realclearinvestigations link. Infuriating and not indicative of even a grey hat for Mueller.
This rankles too;
"The Justice Department has moved to dismiss the complaint [Corsi's] as “patently frivolous.” "
There's no justice to obstruct anymore [never was actually] so why doesn't Trump order his punk underlings to fold their tents like every prog administration does when some friend sues the government?

I just read that, Iggy, and it makes me wonder just how much control Barr has over his department. Jeff Sessions being horsewhipped in public would satisfy me, particularly if I was wielding the whip.
