The Bureau of Labor Statistics announced Friday that the next jobs report will be delayed without providing a reason beyond stating it will be "rescheduled to a later date."

According to a report from Axios, the announcement went out late on Friday, and inquiries to the BLS, as well as the Department of Labor, went unanswered.

In a fit of rage, President Donald Trump demanded thousands of Venezuelan immigrants in the United States to “get [the] hell out of our country,” accusing the Venezuelan government of sending “monsters” to American shores.

He went on to warn that an "incalculable price” would be paid were the migrants not removed “right now.”

In just this week, President Donald Trump has sued the New York Times for $15 billion over its negative coverage of him, suggested that broadcasters who criticize him should potentially have their licenses revoked, and celebrated the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel as "great news for America.”

And for many of Trump’s diehard supporters – self-styled ‘defenders of free speech’ – defending the president has meant twisting themselves “into painful mental contortions” to reconcile their purported beliefs with his recent actions, Jonathan Chait argued Saturday in a column for The Atlantic.

Intelligencer writer Ross Barkan reports Trump “is going to lose the war on free speech” in a pattern reminiscent of Democrats’ overreach on police reform, but worse.

“This all amounts to what one could call the ‘woke’ right; a resurgent regime that is stifling free discourse and justifying it through the same logic that social-justice activists and certain Democratic politicians employed in the 2010s and early 2020s,” Barkan wrote.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) applauded the decision by ABC/Disney to take comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show off the air “indefinitely,” but he went a bridge too far with MAGA supporters when he criticized FCC head Brendan Carr's heavy-handed tactics that reportedly precipitated the suspension.

Almost six hours before Kimmel’s show was put on hiatus, Carr told a podcaster, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel, or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead."

The Trump administration has set its eyes on a new target: Palestinians, who under a new directive will now be subject to heightened scrutiny when applying for asylum, according to leaked documents obtained by the Washington Post.

The outlet obtained an internal email from the Department of Homeland Security that advised staff within the agency’s asylum office to “be on the lookout for Palestinian cases,” regardless of whether applicants actually reside in Palestine, so long as they “otherwise affirmatively [identify] as Palestinian.” Those cases would then be “diverted for an additional review to the quality-assurance office,” the Washington Post found and reported on Saturday.

As the initial dust settles over the “indefinite” suspension of comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show over comments he made about MAGA fans' reaction of the shooting of far-right extremist Charlie Kirk, the onus now falls on Disney/ABC for the next move.

According to a report from NBC News, the execs at the media conglomerate are feeling the pinch, both in public relations and economically, with one insider who believed Kimmel would never be brought back now changing his mind.

According to a former Southern District of New York prosecutor, FBI Director Kash Patel was playing fast and loose with the truth during his congressional testimony this past week, in particular when when he was asked about the notorious Jeffrey Epstein files.

Patel’s job performance was put under the microscope this past week in two highly contentious hearings as he tried to fend off questions about the convicted pedophile as well as his conduct overseeing the shooting of far-right gadfly Charlie Kirk.

President Donald Trump is set to address the United Nations General Assembly in New York on Tuesday, though critics are condemning the president for undermining the very intergovernmental organization the United States helped create.

“The Trump administration’s approach to the UN has been destructive and at times vindictive,” said Richard Gowan, who leads the International Crisis Group think tank as its director, speaking with the Wall Street Journal in a report published Saturday. “The administration seems immune to concerns about reputational damage.”

Despite claims coming from Donald Trump’s administration that the man who shot far-right conservative gadfly Charlie Kirk was part of a left-wing conspiracy, investigators are finding “no evidence” to back that claim.

According to a report from NBC News early Saturday morning, three insiders claimed they are coming up dry at the same time Vice President J.D. Vance and Trump adviser Stephen Miller are calling for a holy war of liberal groups over the killing of Kirk on a Utah college campus.

A proposal to use Charlie Kirk as a military recruiting tool, despite his never having served in any branch of the United States Armed Forces, presents a host of problems.

That is the opinion of MSNBC’s Zeeshan Aleem in a column on Saturday, who noted there is some resistance within the Pentagon since the proposal was leaked.

President Donald Trump announced the dismissal of his own appointee for U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia late Friday night, justifying the move in a social media post by alleging that his choice for the position had gained “unusually strong” backing from his political opponents.

“Today I withdrew the nomination of Erik Siebert as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, when I was informed that he received the UNUSUALLY STRONG support of the two absolutely terrible, sleazebag Democrat Senators, from the Great State of Virginia,” Trump wrote shortly before midnight Friday on his social media platform Truth Social.

President Donald Trump uncorked an attack on David Letterman a day after the legendary late-night comedian delivered blistering criticism of Jimmy Kimmel's abrupt suspension from ABC.

When asked Thursday at The Atlantic Festival 2025 his thoughts on Kimmel being yanked off the air, Letterman replied, “This is misery."
