Massive Rains in the Pacific Northwest Impact The Daily Doom Today

Dec 10, 2025

There will be no editorial today due to the flooding you may have read about in The Daily Doom or elsewhere, starting to happen today throughout the Pacific Northwest, where I live and work. Some rivers are going to crest beyond their most extreme historic record. This is throwing the place where I work into turmoil so that I have a lot of situations to deal with (as does everyone else here), so I won’t have time to write an editorial. We’ll see what tomorrow holds.

I did, however, already have some headlines pulled together before all the road closures began to be posted, forcing early closure of my workplace and lots of other changes. So, here are the headlines I already had pulled together for everyone today:

Economania (national & global economic collapse plus market news)

Dow closes nearly 500 points higher after Fed cuts rates

Trump administration touts pulling nearly 10,000 truckers off road for failing English tests

Inflation Factors (too much money chasing too few goods due to weather, sanctions, tariffs, quarantines, etc.)
