Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth missed expectations in the third quarter. The concerning economicdata comes just a week before the 2024 U.S. presidential election—though it is unclear how much of an impact the news could have on voters.
The consensus expectations for GDP growth in the third quarter were 3.1 percent. However, the final growth number came in just shy of 2.8 percent. In the second quarter, the economy grew at a rate of three percent.
Additionally, there are some concerns that inflation could be accelerating again. The Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (Core PCE) came in at 2.2 percent, above the 2.1 percent expectation. Core PCE is one of several inflation measures used by the Federal Reserve to monitor and determine price conditions in the United States.
THE FED.
In September, the Federal Reserve announced a relatively unprecedented 50 basis point (bps) rate cut after the Biden-Harris government was forced to admit its job growth numbers had significantly overestimated the strength of the American labor market. This marked the first time the central bank has reduced rates since 2020.
It should be noted that past 50 bps cuts by the central bank have often signaled a looming recession. Concerningly, an anonymous vote of the Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) suggests the central bank will cut rates by an additional 50 bps before the end of the year. Combined, this would be the largest rate cut over such a short period in 16 years.
The new inflation data, however, may force the Federal Reserve to back down from a second rate cut—as several members of its FOMC remain skittish about resurgent inflation. The third quarter economic data also suggests personal consumption is increasing—though that is to be expected heading into the U.S. holiday season.

A joke about Puerto Rico made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at President Donald J. Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally has not affected Hispanic support for the America First leader in Pennsylvania. A poll conducted by Cygnal indicates no shift among Hispanicvoters in the state.
Brent Buchanan, a pollster with Cygnal, stated that Puerto Ricans—among the demographics least likely to support Republican candidates—are not expected to change their voting intentions due to Hinchcliffe’s comments. The data shows no alteration in overall Hispanic voter preferences since the event.
“The comments are less likely to sway Puerto Rican votes toward Trump and more likely to energize opposition,” Buchanan acknowledged. However, he stressed again that these voters were not likely Republican supporters to begin with.
Following the media frenzy around Hinchcliffe’s joke, Shadow Senator for Puerto Rico Zoraida Buxó endorsed Trump at a Pennsylvania rally.
Trump has seen a surge of support among Hispanics across the United States during the 2024 presidential campaign. Maria Hinojosa, a host on the publicly funded broadcaster NPR, bizarrely suggested that many Hispanics were supporting Trump because they “want to be white” last month.
Hinojosa also admitted that the Hispanic support for Trump over Democrat presidential candidate Kamala Harris could cost the current Vice President next week’s election.
Polling reveals that immigration could be a major factor in the surge in support for Trump. A survey released in June suggested that around two-thirds of Hispanics across America want to see illegal immigrants deported.
Under the Biden-Harris regime, millions of illegals have flooded into the country. President Trump has promised large-scale deportations if he is reelected.

President Joe Biden, speaking to a far-left Democrat-aligned open borders group, has once again stepped on 2024 Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris‘s news cycle, declaring supporters of President Donald J. Trump to be “garbage.” The 81-year-old Democrat’s remarks were broadcast on CNN as Harris was winding up a rally on the Elipse—just outside the White House—in what her campaign billed as its closing argument.
“Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community… Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage,” Biden said before uttering the line which is sparking a political and media firestorm: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”
In the immediate aftermath of Biden’s remarks, the Democratic White House put out conflicting transcripts, with one attempting to make it appear as though Biden were referring to a singular Trump supporter. Additionally, White House communications staff, posting on social media on behalf of Biden, tried to add further clarification, insisting the 81-year-old was specifically referring to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who made the Puerto Rico joke.
Late last night, responding to Biden and the silence from the Harris campaign, President Trump responded on X (formerly Twitter). “While I am running a campaign of positive solutions to save America, Kamala Harris is running a campaign of hate. She has spent all week comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history,” Trump wrote. “Now, on top of everything, Joe Biden calls our supporters ‘garbage.’ You can’t lead America if you don’t love the American People. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have shown they are both unfit to be President of the United States,” he continued.
“I am proud to lead the biggest, broadest, and most important political coalition in American history. We are welcoming historic numbers of Latinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, and citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed. It is my desire to be the President of all the people,” he added.
While I am running a campaign of positive solutions to save America, Kamala Harris is running a campaign of hate. She has spent all week comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history. Now, on top of everything, Joe Biden calls our supporters…
Even as the Biden White House and Trump campaign reacted to the octogenarian Democrat’s insult directed at roughly half of American voters, the Harris campaign appeared to be paralyzed on how to respond. Caught in a ‘catch-22,’ the Democratic Party nominee’s communications team is unsure whether to embrace Biden’s “garbage” comments or denounce the President.
The former risks further heightening the contradictions between Trump and Harris, likely energizing Republican voters. The latter would open Harris to renewed scrutiny regarding Biden’s health and mental state. Having to spend the final week of the 2024 presidential race explaining what she knew regarding Biden’s cognitive decline and when she knew it was not likely what the Harris campaign intended for their candidate.
However, by Wednesday morning, Harris decided to try and have it both ways. Speaking with the press pool, Vice President Harris—who just days ago called Trump and his supporters “fascists”—said: “I think that first of all he clarified his comments but let me be clear: I strongly disagree with any criticism of people based on who they vote for.”

A registered Democrat in Pennsylvania has been arrested for allegedly making threats against former President Donald J. Trump ahead of a rally at Penn State University. Paul J. Gavenonis, a transgender 74-year-old who uses female pronouns, reportedly made the threatening remarks last Friday while attempting to purchase a parking pass at the university’s transportation office.
Witnesses claim Gavenonis stated, “I hate Donald Trump. I’d like to shoot that guy,” while making a gesture mimicking the action of racking a gun. He also described scaling a building and noted, “You can’t take a gun in, or the students will see it,” according to an arrest affidavit.
Concerned by the comments, an employee alerted law enforcement. The former president was scheduled to speak at the university the following day, October 26, 2024, just days before the presidential election.
When questioned by Penn State police and Secret Service agents, Gavenonis allegedly responded with laughter when asked about the possibility of targeting Trump, answering, “Probably. Yeah.”
“Frankly, I hope somebody would get him,” he added.
Charged with making terroristic threats and disorderly conduct, Gavenonis is being held in Centre County Prison without the option of bail.

The United States Supreme Court has ruled that Virginia can continue to remove noncitizen voters from its state voter rolls, reversing a lower court decision stemming from a lawsuit brought by the Biden-Harris Department of Justice (DOJ). Initial filed with Chief Justice John Roberts, the DOJ supplied a response to Virginia late yesterday with the full court issuing its ruling less than a day later on Wednesday morning.
“The application for stay presented to The Chief Justice and by him referred to the Court is granted. The October 25, 2024 order of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia… is stayed pending the disposition of the appeal…,” the Supreme Court’s order reads. Only Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
BREAKING: Supreme Court rules 6-3 to allow Virginia to remove noncitizens from its voting rolls, lifting an order that halted the program. pic.twitter.com/dLO0lnSyy6
In 2006, then-Governor Tim Kaine (D-VA) signed legislation allowing the state to remove noncitizens from its voter rolls. Despite being on the books for nearly two decades, the DOJ has not challenged that law until now. On Sunday night, Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares (R) filed an emergency stay request with the Supreme Court. Chief Justice Roberts accepted the filing and gave the DOJ until yesterday at 3PM to respond.
Pursuant to the ruling, Virginia election officials will be allowed to continue to remove self-identified noncitizen voters from the state’s rolls with just a week left before the 2024 presidential election.

Stephen K. Bannon returned to host the War Room after four months in federal prison, telling the establishment and the Democrats that he is even more focused than before, promising a “knockout blow” to the Democrats on November 5. The former Trump White House Chief Strategist went immediately on the offensive, pushing back at accusations that President Donald J. Trump and his supporters are “fascists.”
“I can tell you in coming from and being a political prisoner in a federal prison, that the young men in this country that are African-American and Hispanic detest Kamala Harris,” Bannon said.
Meanwhile, his message to former Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, whom he holds responsible for putting him in prison, was: “This show has never been more powerful. The audience has never been more powerful. And we’re going to deliver a knockout blow to your progressive insanity on the Fifth of November.”
You commies tried to break him… You tried to break the movement. STEVE BANNON has returned! WE WON’T TAKE A SINGLE BACK STEP. Black and Hispanic man here, he’s right, we detest Kamala Harris. My friend, mentor and brother in arms to save this country! We’re in a dogfight… pic.twitter.com/RTY8AuVljh
Despite only being released hours before the October 29 broadcast, Bannon said he was “more energized and more focused than I’ve ever been in my entire life.” He noted that the Harris campaign’s ‘Joy’ message was “ill-defined” and that the Democrats have pivoted to a “Night falls on America” narrative, claiming the Trump movement is now a fascist movement. “That is a bald-faced lie, and it’s a dangerous lie,” he said.
Bannon was eligible for early release under the First Step Act in September but was kept in federal prison for his entire term after he was convicted of contempt of Congress for refusing to obey the corrupt January 6 Committee.

Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz allocated state funds to a nonprofit that distributes controversial “booty bumping” or “boofing” drug-use kits. As Governor of Minnesota, Kamala Harris’s running mate announced a $100 million initiative on May 14 to support services for the homeless, including funding for Southside Harm Reduction Services in Minneapolis. The nonprofit’s kits allow drug abusers to ingest substances through their rectums.
Since 2020, Southside Harm Reduction Services has received $3.1 million from Walz’s administration, with $432,000 awarded in 2023 alone. A law signed by Walz in May 2023 legalized the distribution of drug paraphernalia by nonprofits, enabling programs like Southside’s to expand their offerings.
The so-called harm reduction movement, championed by Walz, aims to mitigate drug-related risks, providing users with access to supplies for abusing drugs like heroin, methamphetamine, and fentanyl. The nonprofit recommends putting drugs in the rectum to “reach a high faster than some other routes of administration,” advising abusers, “Try to poop before… so your drugs are absorbed better.”
The Biden-Harris government has also funded similar harm-reduction initiatives. Since 2021, $354,663 has been allocated to HIPS, a nonprofit in Washington, D.C., for vending machines stocked with drug paraphernalia, including booty bumping kits.

The YouTube search algorithm is hiding the full three-hour interview podcaster Joe Rogan conducted with President Donald J. Trump despite the video having over 34.6 million views on the platform. When “Joe Rogan Trump” is typed into the YouTube search box, users are flooded with videos about the interview from corporate media outlets, commentators, and clips from the interview. However, the entire interview is nowhere to be seen and must be accessed by navigating to Joe Rogan’s YouTube channel.
A review by The National Pulse found that the top search results, rather than the relevant Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) episode, are clips from leftist outlets and others reacting to the interview. The JRE Clips account, which posts short clips of full podcast shows, is also among the results.
YouTube owner Alphabet, which also owns the Google platform, has also been accused of hiding conservative media and content in the past. During the 2020 presidential election campaign, Google removed several large news sites from its search pages, including major conservative websites like The National Pulse, Daily Caller, and Breitbart News. Google later argued that the issue was technical.
YouTube itself has also been accused of covering for the Biden-Harris regime by eliminating the dislike counter on videos after White House videos saw massive ratios of dislikes to likes on the platform. The platform has previously “deboosted” other content, including an anti-vaccine mandate song in 2022 by a Canadian award-winning musician named Matt Brevner.
Big Tech censorship remains a significant issue across nearly all major social media. Examples include artificial intelligence (AI) developed by Facebook parent company Meta claiming that Trump was not shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July, and the Biden-Harris regime directly pressuring tech firms to censor movements like the Canadian Freedom Convoy.

The Washington Post is facing a revolt not only among its staff and editorial board but also among its most anti-Trump subscribers. Following the newspaper’s decision—influenced by owner and tech billionaire Jeff Bezos—not to endorse a candidate in the 2024 presidential race, The Post has seen over 200,000 digital readers cancel their subscriptions as of Monday afternoon.
With a total readership estimated to be around 2.5 million, The Washington Post has seen nearly 10 percent of its total subscriber base evaporate in a matter of days. The Post has struggled to remain financially viable in recent years and largely relies on cash injections from Bezos to stay afloat.
THE NON-ENDORSEMENT.
Late last week, the newspaper—whose slogan, adopted in 2017 in protest of President Donald J. Trump, is “Democracy Dies in Darkness”—shocked the American political landscape when it declined to make a presidential endorsement for the first time since 1988. Will Lewis, the newspaper’s Chief Executive and Publisher, justified the decision as a move to reaffirm The Post’s independence.
Meanwhile, management at The Washington Post is reportedly concerned that the cancellations will continue to rise with its left-wing readership unsated. Marcus Brauchli, former Executive Editor of The Post, described the cancellations as significant and suggested a lack of communication and transparency by Bezos and Lewis regarding the endorsement decision is fueling the anger.
“The problem is, people don’t know why the decision was made. We basically know the decision was made but we don’t know what led to it,” Brauchli said in a recent interview with NPR. However, the former Executive Editor cautions subscribers from acting rashly, arguing: “It is a way to send a message to ownership but it shoots you in the foot if you care about the kind of in-depth, quality journalism like The Post produces.”
STAFF JUMP SHIP.
Meanwhile, the internal strife at The Washington Post is becoming increasingly untenable as well. At least two columnists and two editorial board members have resigned in protest. Molly Roberts, an eight-year veteran of the newspaper, quit on Monday, and fellow board member David Hoffman is said to be following suit. Additionally, columnist Michele Norris and editor-at-large Robert Kagan bolted from the paper over the weekend.
Kagan has gone on to insinuate that Bezos’s decision not to endorse is driven by business interests. He notes that Bezos-owned Blue Origin holds substantial NASA contracts and that the company allegedly met with Trump soon after the endorsement decision became public.

Undercover footage of a Democrat operative in Georgia appears to confirm that a burst water pipe at Atlanta’s State Farm Arena during the 2020 election was used to send Republican election observers home while Democrats remained and supervised counting—which resumed promptly after their counterparts had left. Additionally, the operative states that Democrats engaged in legally dubious ballot harvesting tactics, specifically targeting elderly care facilities in the lead-up to the election.
Stephen Crowder and his team posted footage of Joel Caldwell, the Operations Director for the Georgia Coalition for the People’s Agenda, on X (formerly Twitter) on October 28. In the footage, Caldwell states that it was easier to steal an election by inflating vote totals for Democrats in areas that were already heavily Democratic to avoid raising suspicions.
BALLOT HARVESTING & BURST PIPES.
Caldwell alludes to potentially illegal ballot harvesting activities, claiming a “man pulled up and put a hundred ballots in [a] box. You can’t do that sh*t.” He stated, “Groups [were] paying people to do just that. Drop off ballots. Go around collecting ballots [and] forge them.”
He also discusses the circumstances surrounding an alleged burst water pipe in Atlanta during the 2020 presidential election that caused counters to stop counting ballots at the State Farm arena after they were evacuated.
Caldwell notes that the Democrat observers returned to the venue and had workers resume counting while Republicans had left. He states in the video that only 100 votes were recorded for President Donald J. Trump in one specific locality, claiming the number was statistically impossible.
“Statistically, you’re downtown. There’s going to be more than a hundred votes for Trump,” he said.
CAUGHT ON TAPE: Democratic Operative Details Potentially Illegal Ballot Harvesting Schemes Used to Rig American Elections; Appears to Admit 2020 Election Fraud Took Place in Georgia
MugClub Army – please be aware of this type of activity ahead of Election Day!
Fulton County has been a significant focus of allegations of election fraud. However, Georgia’s top election official, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, has resisted efforts to spearhead major election integrity efforts.
The National Pulse previously reported that Raffensperger is instead fundraising for a group that targets activists and officials raising alarms over voter fraud.
