Trump: 'Deranged' Judge's Ruling 'Radical Attack' On Me

'...at the hands of a deranged New York State Judge, doing the bidding of a completely biased and corrupt 'Prosecutor,' Letitia James, who ran for office based on a 'Get Trump' platform," Trump said in a statement posted on his Truth Social account.

"Today's action is a refutation of my status as the leading Candidate for President of the United States, including with a substantial lead over Joe Biden. It is a terrible reminder that the Radical Left Democrats will stop at nothing in trying to prevent me, and the American people, from winning the 2024 Presidential Election."...'

OPM |Will employees performing excepted work be paid for performing such work during a shutdown furlough? If so, when will excepted employees receive such payments?

'A. Yes. After the lapse in appropriations has ended, employees who were required to perform excepted work during the lapse will receive retroactive pay for those work periods. (See 31 U.S.C. 1341(c)(2).) Retroactive pay is provided at the employee’s “standard rate of pay.” If the retroactive pay cannot be provided on the normal pay date for the given pay period, it must be provided at the earliest date possible after the lapse ends. (Note: Presidential appointees who are not covered by the leave system in 5 U.S.C. chapter 63 are not subject to furlough, but are also barred from receiving pay during a lapse in appropriations. These Presidential appointees will be paid after the lapse in appropriations has ended. See Question B.6.)'

Auto workers strike will drive up car prices, but not right away

'lots are full of cars now,” says Ivan Drury, the director of insights at Edmunds, a provider of information about the auto industry. He estimates that at current inventory levels and the pace of vehicle sales, most car shoppers shouldn’t notice much change ...UAW began striking at factories that make only a few vehicles...The car companies have plants in Mexico that could keep producing some models...The biggest wild card could be consumer psychology – panic-buying that would drive up prices. “The impact on prices would be almost instantaneous,” Nelson says. “'
