Let's Talk About- Political Edition


(08-23-2024, 11:28 AM)Jag149 Wrote: The Fed at Jackson Hole meeting just said his confidence has grown inflation is on a path to 2% and unemployment is rising. They have a dual mandate from congress to stabilize prices (not reduce) and employment. Since unemployment is rising they do not wish more of this.  This on the heels of the government "adjusting" past jobs data. They adjusted the last 12 months the largest in history 800,000+ jobs. So the country created over 800,000 less jobs than thought.  This is the largest revision in our history, so the current administration cannot count well? 

Additionally, they mentioned in politically correct terms the impact of migration expanding the job market.  Unemployment of these migrants fell about 1.2 million while US born declined 1.2 million. This has become very complicated as the government has two numbers for this migration. It is either 7 or 15 million over the last 4 years, depending upon which department you want to use. Either way it is about the size of the population of Arizona.  Bottom line the jobs are still there but the "Migrants" have been replacing full time American workers and they have been being paid under the table.

There were allegations of cooking the books on unemployment numbers during Obama's first term.  I did not find those allegations credible.

However today it seems more likely than not that multiple economic numbers are being adjusted for deceptive purposes. Claiming this was done simply to help Democrats stay in the White House is too simplistic - if that was the case, why publish the correction now?  Why not wait three more months? Some other agenda is in play.

First, every year they make these adjustment in July, this one is just historically high. Not doing it would draw a lot more scrutiny,  they would have to make an excuse for the delay. We have know this was coming as the variance between payroll company report and the"official numbers" has been growing. Private parties would then make projections coming to the same conclusions and then BS would be called on their excuse. Politically a loss for the current administration.

I agree another agenda is there too.  It could be as simple as drawing attention away from the rising cost of fossil fuels due to policy changes from Trump and the rise in inflation. Many of those restrictions were eased resulting in the prices falling. A hey look at this shiny object , nothing to see over there moment. Who really knows.

Soviet stye? It doesn't surprise me at all.  Well first proof of soviet collusion by an American political party.  The estate of this guy confirms the letter written was accurate.

Newsmax also dropped RFK when he started speaking on food security...

It used to be when we were a true melting pot.  From the many, one!  Sadly now immigrants no longer want to be Americans.  They want to be hyphen Americans.

At some point you just have to let go of what you thought should happen and live in what is happening.

This is what I have inadequately been saying. Corporations now own all of the homes making home ownership nearly impossible for the next generation of independent Americans.  There is a nefarious reason they are doing this.

He is the reason I changed my party from Libertarian to Republican this past primary.  Unfortunately the outcome was determined before Florida had a vote.

Ok, a summary. The current administration prosecuted past the extent of the law a political opponent. I say past because the statue of limitations was 2 years (2018) This because a prosecutor who quit the high profile #3 job in justice to take a much less post as a state prosecutor. He then pushed an interpretation of the law which the judges were obliged to surrender to to do this. The law requiring the judges to allow this has now been overturned by the supreme court and he is going to have to somehow re-justify his ability to try this case. 

Next we have an soft target created by the SS which enabled an attempt on the same political opponent by a sniper, which missed.

Finally, in a Venezuela style coup the democratic party pushed out the winner of their primary which received 98% of the votes. In his place they had a coronation a person selected bu unknown people that in two primary runs received zero votes.

Maybe the name of the party needs to be changed as this does not sound Democratic.

I miss anything?

Oh yes, the special council who can only by law be appointed by the president was appointed by the Attorney General, Merrick B. Garland
also, the law the former president was prosecuted for is a misdemeanor in the State of New York. The Prosecutor also has to justify this.

Imagine considering yourself a rocker and supporting Harris.

I am highly disappointed in Dave.

The same comments about Biden would have gotten him fired a couple months ago.  The Leftist double-standard continues, and the mindless followers don't even realize it's happening.

This is nothing new. The sun is bright and water is wet. We know their playbook. If RFK had thrown his endorsement to Harris, he would be regaled by this same 'journalist' as brilliant. Fox News would do the same on the other side.

Stop counting on these people for professionalism.
