      Not sure I would say it’s incompetent. There is a reason that ICE is offering signing bonuses for new hires while every major company is laying off it’s workforce and spending all their money on stock buybacks.

      This isn’t stupidity. This is absolutely on purpose. They are building their Nazi military and using the threat of homelessness to get as many people as they can to join it.

      New BLS head is talking about delaying jobs reporting til they can ensure the data is “safe”…so you know August is about to be brutal. Going to have to check the ADP reports.

        That was a winnable race and the DNC lost it so they could cash checks from war criminals and industry. But yeah, keep trying to blame everyone else you can find except DNC leadership. I’m sure your whining will get people on side and make them do what they are told, right?

        They actually desensitized me to GENOCIDE. Imagine that. I just switched off every time that word came up. In conversation, in person, in text. Every fucking time. Now they’re.just going more and more extreme, like a kid looking for a reaction. Impossible to have discourse with a foaming mouth animal.
