  2. These are the numbers that will betray his attempts to whitewash how much trouble our economy is in. There are way too many economic indicators in play that firing 1 bureaucrat & replacing her with a sycophant won't fix it.

  4. I'm not doubting this but I'm asking the question How are we able to get reliable statistics when Trump's Goonies have infiltrated the top levels of government?

  5. Thank you for saying “since the early months of the COVID pandemic…” Many say or write “since the pandemic” or “during the pandemic,” implying the pandemic’s over, which unfortunately isn’t the case.

  7. I’m about to lose my third job in a row for whistleblowing, in a right-to-work state, and I won’t have unemployment benefits.

    Trying to find a new job is maddeningly hard already, because of embarrassingly archaic hiring strategies, but adding in economic disruption and AI… I am totally fucked.

  8. And the companies laying off people are still meeting their goals on paper because they are letting people go in order to still make a profit while the communities in which they do business are affected because people can't spend money if they are jobless.

  9. Year-end is at the end of the month. My company always has a rash of layoffs the beginning of Sept. My husband is calling people now to lay off people where he works. It's gonna get worse!

  10. interest rates are coming down based on today's data. there's still some risk with core cpi being up and inflation holding steady, but those jobs numbers are dire.

    Trump’s Revenge Tour is fueled by his own lies,

    his lies that fueled the Jan. 6th insurrection, his lies about Russia not interfering in 2016 election.

    A vengeful old man full of “toxic emotions” fueled for retribution.

    Holding on to anger, like drinking poison & expecting the “Other” to die.

  11. It’s just going to keep increasing because of the tariffs! Intel laid off over 300 people in Oregon a few weeks ago. News isn’t reporting on the thousands of jobs lost because of the tariff’s. TRUMP is destroying our economy and our healthcare system.

  12. Dipshit's achievements today.

    1. Fired the statistician.
    2. Wrote "hiring" above "layoffs" and scratched word "layoffs."
    3. Wrote a post on how great the hiring has been, which no one has seen likes of it, and thanks for paying attention to this matter.

  13. This is really heartbreaking… On one side, people are being pulled away from their families and jobs for a ‘show,’ and on the other side, there’s a wave of layoffs. Do you think this is just coincidence, or is there something deeper going on here?

  14. How can that be when prices are down and interest rates are actually in the negative? Banks are actually giving away money! Trump is such a financial genius!

  15. If everything is so great in the United States why are so many Americans who are traveling in Europe pretending to be Canadians with Canadian flag stickers on their bags and maple leaf pins on their lapels?

  18. This stock market bubble bursting is going to be ROUGH and I think a lot of people are going to suffer. Right now the investors are riding high, but at some point they're going to look down and see that the labor market that holds the entire economy up has been replaced by a shitty chat bot.

  19. Who's responsible for this report? Fire them immediately! Wait...what? The president is responsible for these layoffs?...Nevermind.

  22. Funny how CNN said this morning the numbers “weren’t as bad as expected”- mainstream media playing it all off as just fine, thanks for giving reality a chance!

  23. ... But in a sudden plot twist, the heritage foundation found some new and unreleased numbers showing the opposite 🤡

  24. I'm personally worried about the numbers that come out, specifically inflation, jobs, and unemployment. Who is releasing these numbers and are they little Trumpy kiss asses?

  25. That is why we need a complete new reporting organization so all those problems will disappear just like the COVID by magic. During Staline time all the indicators in USSR where in green , production, harvest, wealth , it was probably the USSR Golden Age. Same thing will now happen in USA.

  26. Anyone know definitively if there will continue to be a trusted source—not the regime—for our country’s economic indicators…jobs report, CPI, GDP etc?

  27. They started 1/20/2025. USAID was the first, evil bastard that he is.

    Then the DMV hit a recession by March due to all the firings and cancelled govt contracts. Half a million lost jobs here by April.

    The job numbers are not good and farms can't reap their crops. Recession --> Depression.

  28. The Child Rapist is Chief will report crazy unhinged outright bullshit numbers. The feebleminded (corporate media and other mental invalids) will believe him.

  30. When I got laid off in December of last year my boss at the time said they'd be glad to have me back if my position opened up again but that we'd just have to see how this new administration went... I don't see me getting my position back any time soon (read ever).

  31. The Heritage Foundation will give Kash all those pink slips to put in a burn bag.

    No evidence then no bad economic news to hurt the thin skinned delicate Trump. He’s already butt hurt about the crime stats.

  32. That fat old orange fart is directly responsible. A lot are government employees directly fired by him and many more have lost their jobs due to predictable results of his actions. He's taken a booming economy and consumer optimism and driven it into the ditch.

  33. He and his cronies worked very hard to destabilize the US economy, allowing his looters to pillage for their blood money, all while having placed his loyalists all throughout the federal government in preparation for his puppet of a VP to pursue technofeudalism. Failing like his failed businesses.

Unacceptable!

  35. the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over but expecting different results, every single time these republican morons get elected the economy goes into recession and the debt spirals, like how many fucking times does this shit have to happen before people get a fucking clue

  36. I am in the Aug list. Out of work after 7/31. Over 60, so little chance I will find a new job.

    Losing our democracy is a bigger problem, so I keep some perspective.

  38. This sharp increase in layoffs signals growing economic uncertainty and challenges for workers. It’s crucial that support systems are strengthened to help those affected during these tough times.

  39. When local grocery store & Walmart managers are saying that their business has slowed down substantially-the local economy is in trouble.

  40. No, that can't be! You're fired, MeidasTouch. 🙃

    (also, I'm very sorry for those affected, of course.)

  41. If we would just stop tracking and reporting employment numbers then there wouldn't be so many layoffs and stuff.😏

  42. That can’t be true, my neighbour says the US economy is booming and we need someone like trump to look after Canada like he is for you guys😳😳.

    Okay, whoever came up with those numbers will obviously have to be fired, the naked orange “king” doesn’t like being told he’s not wearing any clothes.😂😂

  44. I wouldn’t have known what you were talking about without that very helpful stock image of a random business person opening a “layoff notice”!

    Thanks for letting us know how stupid you think we are.

  45. Well, I did predict a depression by #October2025. It's when policies really kick in to begin that fiscal year. It's the only path to full authoritarianism. "Only I can fix it!"

  46. When you stop and think…what follows Trump?

    • corruption
    • chaos
    • destruction
    • recession/layoffs
    • natural disaster/pandemic
    • violence and criminals
    • bias and hate
    • wrath
    • greed
    • despair
    • sellouts and grifters
    • bankrupted souls
    • death
    • stronger EU
    • resistance

    Think.

  47. The US is just the latest Trump Casino. Suck out as much cash as you can and let it Die. Your watching the Country Slide into a Facist State and doing nothing about it.

  48. Can Trump fire Antoni before his BLS nomination is confirmed by the Senate? Just asking. There seems no shortage of stoopnagles who believe employment with the Trump administration includes job security... as long as you check your intellect and ethical principles at the door.

We know the TYRANT IN OUR WH IS THE MOST EVIL PERSON EVER! We know Congress can do something about this. We’re not Stupid! etc…
