Dojos sycophants even care? Do they even know this? I worry they are in the largest echo chamber and they have no idea what the truth is anymore.

And TRE45ON’s nominee (who looks an awful lot like Skreech from Saved by the Bell) has suggested getting rid of the jobs report. “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” George Orwell, 1984.

This will all change as soon as the new LBS commissioner takes his position. You will now see the highest inflation reduction by almost 1200 to 1500% As well as the job creation will jump by more than 1-10 Millions new jobs created during the month of August. Reality won’t change but numbers will

Yep, going great. I got laid off after 15 years at a large iconic computer chip company with the letter "I". We went food shopping, prices are rising bigly. Gas is going up again too. But the billionaires and Trump are getting richer. Trump has been, and always be a liar, pervert and conman.
