After a month and a half delay due to the government shutdown, we are finally getting some official economic data. It is old (from September), but it's here. The economy gained 119,000 jobs, and the unemployment rate went up for the third month in a row. What's that mean for job seekers? Plus, declining consumer sentiment doesn't translate to declining consumer spending, Walmart's quarterly results beat expectations, and international student enrollment has dipped.
The Daily Signal - Virginia GOP chair addresses infighting and the 2026 mid-terms
The saying about Virginia is “There’s an election every year.” In 2026, the Commonwealth is looking at two. A special election in early spring to overturn the Constitutional Amendment regarding redistricting and then the mid-term Congressional elections, regardless of what the districts look like, in November.
Amid all that, internal accusations are tearing up the pages of Conservative social media and Substack accounts saying that the statewide losses in 2025 need to be addressed with leadership changes at the Republican Party of Virginia.
We sit down with the Chairman of the Party, State Senator Mark Peake to go over it all.

Native America Calling - Thursday, November 20, 2025 – Federal immigration crackdown collides with Native Americans
Family, friends, and tribal officials rallied to help after authorities in Iowa notified Leticia Jacobo she would be handed over to federal immigration officials instead of being released from jail. Jacobo is a member of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community. After extensive pushback, authorities admitted her U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainer was a clerical error. We’ll hear Jacobo’s story. We’ll also hear about what was behind the Nisqually Tribe’s public announcement that it would not house immigrant detainees at their tribal corrections facility. Tribal officials say it is against their values of treating people with dignity and respect.
GUESTS
Leticia Jacobo (Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community), resident of Des Moines, Iowa
Maria Nunez (Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community), Leticia’s aunt
Gabe Galanda (Round Valley Indian Tribe), managing lawyer at Galanda Broadman
David Leslie (Iñupiaq), Iñupiaq activist in Fairbanks, Alaska

Marketplace All-in-One - AI to the rescue (for now)
Nvidia reported earnings yesterday after markets closed, and it did not disappoint. Nvidia makes 90% of all chips used in AI. Tech stocks, including Nvidia, have been carrying a lot of weight in markets, and investors had started getting a little nervous about whether the AI boom was a bubble — but Nvidia's results have been pretty reassuring. Also: stale data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Japan's tensions with China.
Marketplace All-in-One - Will AI bubble fears persist?
From the BBC World Service: Wall Street was cheered last night by better-than-expected results from the chip giant Nvidia. But the AI boom continues to fuel fears of a market bubble. In the past few weeks, a growing number of the world’s leading figures in finance have suggested that AI stocks are unrealistically inflated in value. Plus, Meta says it's shutting down accounts for younger teenagers in Australia ahead of the country's social media ban for youths under 16.

Cato Podcast - The Disaster Aid System: How FEMA Rewards Risk
FEMA was meant to help only when disasters exceeded state capacity. Yet today it functions primarily as a national subsidy machine, encouraging development in floodplains, bailing out wealthy coastal states, and shifting costs onto taxpayers far from the danger zones. The Cato Institute's Dominik Lett and Chris Edwards discuss how well-intentioned federal aid has created perverse incentives, bureaucratic delays, and a long tail of spending that continues decades after storms like Katrina.
