Because of course it won't. Why spread more dismal news about rising unemployment? Instead, just employ the tried and true Trump 2.0 methodology of "if you don't report it, it didn't happen".

US September employment report will not be published if government shuts down
The U.S. Labor Department said on Monday its statistics agency would suspend economic data releases, including the closely watched monthly employment report for September, in the event of a partial government shutdown.

I cried when I voted for Kamala because I knew that would probably be my last time to vote for a President if Trump wins.
The Heritage Foundation is in charge and if you read Project 2025 like I did, you would be scared too.

FEDERAL AGENTS TAKE NOTE…
It’s not just Chicago standing strong. Other blue cities and governors are ready to unite against Trump’s federal invasion.
I’m not an attorney, but this point seems huge: if federal agents break state or city laws, they can prosecuted. And Trump cannot pardon them.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!

Look at this graph.
The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.

The President—who uses antisemitic slurs—is building concentration camps and an enormous secret police force.
Ya know, maybe this is just because I’m Jewish, but I wish the political opposition and the media made a bigger deal about it!

Angus: Canadians need to be really ready. We are upping our investment in military spending significantly. We are now procuring from the Europeans—whereas before, we would have just gone to the United States as usual to buy gear. We’re not buying gear from the United States.

You voted for the guy who gutted the National Weather Service. Now we’ve got dead families and missing kids in Texas, because storm warnings didn’t go out in time. And he gutted FEMA so they can’t properly respond to disasters.
That’s what you voted for?

Illinois has officially ended the fiscal year with nearly $54 billion in revenue — the most the state has ever collected in a single year.
We've exceeded initial projections thanks to responsible fiscal management that prioritizes Illinoisans.
