October 29, 2025Oct 29 Author GM just announced they will cut about 2000 jobs.Also Ole Turtle Mitch just took Trump's tariffs to the woodshed and went on a rant spittin out truthbombs as the Senate voted to remove the special tariffs on Brazil. Of course those tariffs won't actually be removed because the House isn't going to cooperate. In any case, Mitch took down all of the Trump team's pro tariff arguments and spelled it out exactly what it is, a big negative for the US economy and for US citizens.

Personal consumption expenditure was up in Q2 and headline inflation remains around 3%...prompting the fed to cut another quarter point in October. Interest rates are now at the lowest level in 3 years. Jobless rate remains around 4% and in October we were adding more that 14k jobs a week. Literally every single way we measure the economy shows that it is thriving.

November 1, 2025Nov 1 GM is second to Tesla in EV sales and had doubled its 2024 sales YTD in the 3rd quarter.They're only reducing manufacturing because the tax credit expired and they expect reduced demand. Not because "nobody was buying them."
November 1, 2025Nov 1 Touting 14k jobs / week is hilarious btw.Even after the "corrections" to Biden's job numbers from this administration, which any reasonable (read: not a Trump apologist) person would be skeptical about, and ONLY counting net job creation over their high point pre-covid, the number was double that under Biden.Let me repeat that for the cucks.There were around 6 million (more if you don't trust Trump's "corrections" that magically wiped out 800k jobs years after they were reported and corrected) more jobs at the end of Biden's four years than at the HIGH point prior to Covid. Divide that by 208 weeks and you get 28k jobs / week.You idiots are partisan who-'res.
November 1, 2025Nov 1 The job market is incredibly strong, and only getting better.Just look at the amazing recent performances of Paychex and ADP.

But wait...are we uspposed to be counting the post covid spike in "new jobs" or are we not?
