What falling wage growth says about where the U.S. economy is heading Soaring gas prices mean inflation could soon outpace most Americans' pay raises. "That’s where you see a lot of squeeze on workers," said one economist.

New government data shows non-supervisory workers getting a 3.4% pay raise on average hourly earnings over the last year.

That’s the slowest pace of wage gains since 2021, and a downshift from the last two years, when pay bumps were closer to 4%.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash.

ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to.

The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty.

Budgets are moral documents.

The SAVE Act is voter suppression—not security. It would purge millions, especially married women with name changes, low-income voters without passports, and more.

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."
