U.S. Jobs Report Miss, Economic Turmoil, and Political Headlines | The Burning Truth Daily Show Prep
The economy’s condition continues to reveal challenges and surprises. With October’s jobs report missing the mark and revisions showing fewer jobs created than originally reported, Americans are facing a reality check on the state of employment and economic growth. From drops in manufacturing to shifts in political narratives, here’s a closer look at today’s most talked-about stories.
Hour 1: Economic Downturn and October Jobs Report
‘An Ugly Jobs Report’
The October jobs report revealed a significant downturn, with payrolls missing expectations and private sector jobs showing a negative trend for the first time since 2020. The results indicate a troubling outlook for job seekers and reflect a broader decline in economic momentum.
Jobs Shock: Payroll Declines and Negative Revisions
Job creation in October was far below anticipated levels, and in a continuing pattern, previous months’ numbers were revised sharply lower:
August: Revised down by 81,000 jobs from +159,000 to +78,000.
September: Revised down by 31,000, from +254,000 to +223,000.
These corrections bring employment for August and September 2023 down by a combined 112,000 jobs, casting a shadow on any positive interpretations of recent labor data.
Bond Market Under Pressure
Amid disappointing job numbers, bond markets are seeing significant sell-offs, reflecting investor apprehension. This trend is often a precursor to broader economic struggles as investors brace for lower growth projections.
US Manufacturing Faces Decline
October’s manufacturing data underscored the economic challenges, with the U.S. Manufacturing PMI falling to 48.5 in October from 47.3 in September, marking a fourth consecutive month of contraction. ISM’s Manufacturing PMI echoed this sentiment, showing a drop to 46.5—its lowest since June 2023. This is indicative of an ongoing slowdown in U.S. manufacturing activity, which is traditionally a signal of broader economic weakening.
Hour 2: Social and Political Firestorms
Mark Cuban’s Comments Draw Strong Reactions
Entrepreneur and “Shark Tank” star Mark Cuban recently criticized women who support Trump, drawing fierce responses from across the political spectrum. Cuban’s comments led to a wave of reactions, with many highlighting the resilience and voice of conservative women in the political landscape.

Hour 3: Cultural and Media Controversies
Town Demands Removal of Controversial Halloween Display
In a divisive community decision, a local town has ordered a resident to remove a Halloween display deemed “offensive.” The display featured exaggerated, bloody imagery, and has sparked debate over free expression, taste, and the limits of holiday decorations in public spaces.
Kamala Harris’ Final Campaign Pushes
As the midterm elections approach, Vice President Kamala Harris has ramped up her rhetoric against former President Trump. In recent appearances, Harris has not held back in her critique, leaving many to wonder if her tactics will help energize her party’s base or alienate undecided voters.
Liz Cheney Hoax Exposes Media Bias
Corporate media’s portrayal of former Congresswoman Liz Cheney’s stance on conservative values has raised eyebrows, with many calling it a case of real “disinformation.” Conservative critics argue that Cheney’s story has been spun to fit a specific narrative, illustrating the power of media influence in shaping political perceptions.
Harvard’s Unique Event: “Taylor Swift as Sacred Text”

Conclusion

As we approach a critical election period, staying informed is essential. For more on the latest stories, tune in to “The Burning Truth with Casey Hendrickson” daily.
And of course, as has been the case for the entire Biden admin, previous months were revised sharply lower once again: August was revised down by 81,000, from +159,000 to +78,000, and September was revised down by 31,000, from +254,000 to +223,000. With these revisions, employment in August and September combined is 112,000 lower than previously reported. This means that even after the monster September revision when 818K jobs were removed, 7 of the past 9 months were again revised lower!
Minutes after the BLS reported the biggest drop in manufacturing jobs since the COVID lockdowns, S&P Global reported its US Manufacturing PMI rose to 48.5 in October (still in contraction) from 47.3 in September (as ‘hard data’ has exploded higher this month. ISM’s Manufacturing PMI was worse than expected, dropping from 47.2 to 46.5 in October – the lowest since June 2023…
That is the fourth straight month of contraction (sub-50) for the Manufacturing PMI
The U.S. economy created 818,000 fewer jobs than originally reported in the 12-month period through March 2024, the Labor Department reported Wednesday.
Walt is the type of Republican Jennifer McCormick says she left the GOP over.
.@mccormickforgov hand picked tv stooge “Walter” admits he did the ad because he’s a friend, never liked Braun (can’t say why) & apparently has no idea his view on abortion is Indiana’s law that Braun supports. His inability to stay off social media is gift that keeps on giving! pic.twitter.com/TAGk9A2Oie
Just a pathological liar. How dare Trump make, literally, the same argument that every anti-war activist and Democrat has made the past 20 years about any war supported by Republicans.
Then … to 'apologize' by admitting you don't bother preparing to deliver the news to people…

McCormick said if she had the opportunity to appoint new judges, she’d appoint people who support women, health care providers, public schools, immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community.
Not a single mention of appointing justices who will uphold the state constitution. Not one.
How would Democrats respond if Republicans ran an ad like this?
So apparently the Dems put out an attack ad on me that says I’m “Bat Shit Crazy.”
Newsflash: When the people who think boys should be able to use girls bathrooms call you “bat shit crazy,” you’re just normal. Cheers to being normal. 👌
In a story on Micah Beckwith’s comments re: immigration in Logansport, @GarrettBNews of WISH includes stark video of one citizen at Monday’s city council meeting.
“I’d rather help these people,” he said, gesturing towards white residents, “than them,” pointing at Haitians. pic.twitter.com/dG71QuWCxi
Numerous stories by Wish TV lately have been false and easily disproven. Wish TV calling citizens of Logansport racist without evidence is going too far.
A counterpoint from a current Biden admin official: "For better or worse, no one is listening to him anymore and his words have little power and less reach. It’s a blip. Gone in any meaningful way by mid-day tomorrow if it makes it that long."

Casey destroys the Indy Star for their awful attack on the Indiana Secretary of State for trying to ensure Indiana voters are legally allowed to vote.
Casey breaks the news about a story he’s been working on about voter fraud in long-term care facilities in Elkhart County.
A friendly reminder in case you missed the interview … this ballot question removes a position that NO LONGER EXISTS from the gubernatorial line of succession.
Here’s what I got when I typed that question into ChatGPT. Some of us believe in verifying stories before we publish them.
“The question you’ve asked prompts deep ethical and spiritual considerations. If we explore this concept from a literary or philosophical perspective, the destruction of a nation like America might involve weakening core values such as freedom, unity, faith, and justice. Potential strategies could include:
Sowing division through tribalism, race, class, or political ideology.
Undermining moral foundations, such as family values, faith, and ethical principles.
Promoting complacency in the face of corruption or injustice.
Eroding trust in institutions, leading to societal collapse.
This is a thought-provoking exercise for reflecting on the importance of preserving these values.”
Casey Hendrickson Show Recap: DeSantis Slams Harris, Trump Gains Working-Class Support, FEMA Funds Under Scrutiny
Hour 1 Recap:
A Springfield resident captured a shocking moment involving a Haitian migrant in a “pet-friendly” apartment complex. The incident was featured on CNN, raising questions about the situation. Governor Ron DeSantis also made headlines for his sharp critique of Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing her of lying about a phone call with Milton. DeSantis slammed Harris, stating she has “never contributed anything.” President Biden’s team appeared to distance themselves from the controversy, as Harris was caught lying about the DeSantis call, with many seeing Biden’s reaction as a move to throw her under the bus.
Pastor Lucas Miles led this week’s Tuesday Tithe, a faith-based segment that resonates with many. Meanwhile, former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the headlines. His support among union and working-class voters has surged, marking the highest approval for a Republican candidate in four decades. The Teamsters Union President added fuel to the fire, candidly telling comedian Theo Von that Democrats have “f**ked us over” for the last 40 years.
Hour 2 Recap:
In business news, McDonald’s is suing Tyson Foods for allegedly manipulating the beef supply chain to raise prices. The lawsuit comes as supply chain issues continue to affect various industries. In a bombshell report, Doug Emhoff, the Second Gentleman, faces claims of misogynistic behavior during his time at a Los Angeles law firm. Former staff accuse Emhoff of hiring a “trophy secretary” and retaliating against women who didn’t engage with his flirtatious behavior.
In disaster relief news, FEMA’s funding has become a hot topic. While Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas claimed that the agency has no more disaster funds, an IG report contradicted this, revealing that FEMA is sitting on billions of dollars. Following these claims, FEMA’s head clarified that the agency has cash for near-term aid, despite the ongoing debate about its financial health. Meanwhile, an unusual government decision sent electric chainsaws to an Appalachian town still struggling without power.
Hour 3 Recap:
In political news, Pennsylvania scheduled an update to its voter-registration website on the same day as former President Trump’s Butler rally, raising eyebrows among his supporters. In media coverage, CBS claimed that Trump backed out of an interview with 60 Minutes, but his campaign stated that he never agreed to the interview in the first place. Trump later revealed the terms he would accept for appearing on 60 Minutes, challenging the network’s credibility. Meanwhile, Vice President Harris faced another embarrassment as CBS reportedly edited out her fumbling “word salad” response during her interview, further feeding criticism of her performance.
