Fed Chair Jerome Powell says immigration surge boosted unemployment rate

By Michelle Wells | Fox Business Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said Wednesday that immigration is helping push the unemployment rate higher as they enter the labor force and look for jobs. Powell was asked about whether the level of job creation in the economy, which has been a little more than 100,000 on average for the last three months, is alarming and if the labor market can continue slowing down through fewer job openings as opposed to job losses. "On the job creation… it depends on the inflows," Powell said. "So if you're having millions of people come into the labor force, and you're creating 100,000 jobs, you're going to see unemployment go up. So it really depends on what's the trend underlying the volatility of people coming into the country." "We understand the...

Kamala Harris’ tax plan could cost U.S. nearly 800k jobs, add $1.7T in tax revenue, study finds

By Eric Revell  | Fox Business Vice President Kamala Harris' tax plan could cost the U.S. economy nearly 800,000 jobs, a new analysis by the Tax Foundation finds. Harris' tax plan, which contains a variety of tax increases, cuts and credits, is based largely on President Biden's budget – though the vice president has offered her own policy ideas since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee.  Overall, the Tax Foundation analysis finds a loss of 786,000 full-time equivalent jobs over the long run under Harris' plan when compared to baseline projections, as well as 2% decline in long-run GDP and a 1.2% dip in long-run wages, while bringing in nearly $1.7 trillion in additional tax revenue over the next decade.

US ‘sleepwalking’ into WWIII, experts warn nation is underprepared

By Caitlin McFall  | Fox News The U.S. is "sleepwalking" into a global war against its top adversaries united under an axis of "malign partnerships," and experts are sounding the alarm that neither the U.S. military nor the public are prepared for World War III. In late July, a body of non-governmental national security experts, first tasked by Congress in 2022 under the Commission on the National Defense Strategy, released an evaluation of the U.S.’ overall security strategy put forward by the Biden administration two years ago. The commission found that after decades of post-Cold War policies that cut defense spending and reduced investments in the security sector, Washington, D.C., is "not prepared" to counter Beijing in open conflict, let alone a multi-fron...

Ganahl: The Republican movement of health, freedom and personal liberty

By Heidi Ganahl | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice As the 2024 election cycle unfolds, the Republican Party is embracing a new wave of support from health-conscious and liberty-minded voters. With former President Donald Trump at the helm, the party is tapping into concerns over personal freedom, government overreach and the nation’s health. A significant figure in this movement is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., whose message of "Making America Healthy Again" (MAHA) resonates with a diverse and growing segment of the electorate. Joining this powerful message is Nicole Shanahan, a leader and advocate for tech-driven solutions to health and environmental issues, whose influence is beginning to reshape the narrative on these critical topics. While Kennedy may have ended his own presidential...

Lara Trump details how ‘military-age men’ use children to cross border

By Jamie Joseph | Washington Examiner Republican National Committee Co-Chairwoman Lara Trump detailed a tactic she said illegal immigrants are using to cross over the border, which involves using “the same child” repeatedly for different crossings. Trump recently toured the southern border to see the border crisis herself, during which she “learned a lot.” She explained that the number of women who are sexually assaulted while crossing the border is close to over 50%, a “much higher” number than what is reported. “I learned a term ‘recycled child,’ that’s a child that the Border Patrol sees four, five, six, maybe even seven times,” Trump said on Fox News’s Hannity. “The same child coming over the border with different military-aged men so that those men ca...

DOJ’s new voter-roll guidance quietly issued; critic warns it may ‘intimidate’ election workers

By Jamie Joseph | Fox News The Department of Justice (DOJ) quietly published new guidelines addressing limits on when and how jurisdictions may remove voters from their voter rolls last week, a move to "intimidate" state and local election officials, says former DOJ attorney Gene Hamilton.  "This is what I perceive as an attempt by the Department of Justice and Civil Rights Division to intimidate state and local jurisdictions and state and local election officials from doing their jobs," Hamilton told Fox News Digital. The DOJ issued a new guidance document on Sept. 9 to remind states ahead of the election that "voting rolls must be accomplished in compliance with federal law and in a nondiscriminatory manner."

Biden-Harris immigration programs admit 1.3 million migrants, including gang members and terror suspects

By Jennie Taer | New York Post Just five months before Luis Miguel Calzadilla-Rojas — a Venezuelan migrant and alleged Tren de Aragua gangbanger — was arrested after a shooting outside a probation office in Aurora, Colorado, he was welcomed into the US — thanks to a controversial immigration program launched by the Biden-Harris administration. Calzadilla-Rojas entered the country using CBP One — an app that is designed to allow asylum seekers a legal pathway to entry into America. He’s just one of 1.3 million migrants who have come into the country through legal routes created by the Biden-Harris admin in less than two years. READ THE FULL COMMENTARY AT THE NEW YORK POST
