  1. Real wage growth has outpaced inflation since May 2023. Atlanta Fed GDPNow forecast is 3.1% The original March report was for 303k, revised to 315k, and revised a second time to 310k. Original report understated growth by only 2.2%. The first revision for April’s “miss” was 5.7%
  2. Unsure if government contractors are captured in the data or classified as government work rather than industry. Between the CHIPS Act and Infrastructure bill I wouldn’t be surprised to see headlines claim massive government employment that’s really construction contracts or alternative energy projects, but have them portrayed as bean counters
  3. ADP will always be off because they don’t count government work, farming, and base the numbers off their amount of captured business and try to extrapolate that out.
  4. Another Jobsgiving coming in “too hot” for our experts. Liberal math has unemployment rate hit 4% though. 4.1% wage growth in the year outpacing inflation. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2024/06/07/jobs-report-may-2024-us-job-gains-totaled-272000-in-may.html U.S. adds a much-better-than-expected 272,000 jobs in May, but unemployment rate edges up to 4%
  5. I’ve already posted your guesses that were wrong under different names, and you doubled down. Expecting you to go back 2-3 pages to see your own words it seems is also too much. Being this sensitive to a laugh emoji is very fragile of you.
  6. Troy Nehls being accused of stolen valor by a lot of Republicans for wearing a pin. So that’s just another day
  7. Look, we only had to wait two months for another guess to be wrong https://www.energy.gov/ceser/articles/biden-harris-administration-continues-secure-good-deal-taxpayers-replenishment-7 Today, the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Petroleum Reserves announced that contracts have been awarded for the acquisition of 3.0 million barrels of U.S.-produced crude oil for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). The contracts awarded today represent a fully subscribed solicitation for November delivery following the Request for Proposal (RFP) that was announced on May 17, 2024. The 3 million barrels are being purchased for an average price of $77.69, well below the average of about $95 per barrel that SPR crude was sold for in 2022, securing a good deal for taxpayers. To date, DOE has purchased a total of 38.60 million barrels of oil for the SPR for an average price of $77.24
  8. Republican voting was mostly flat for 4 consecutive presidential elections until COVID
  9. Did you know about this? Did you hear about this? The S&P 500 and the NASDAQ both hit all time highs today. I for one, would like to congratulate Joey Numbers, Mr Up and to the right, Day-Trader Joe, on concocting the single greatest economy the world has ever seen.
  10. Hollins, Edwards, and Lina looking at a guaranteed pension
  11. That was my sarcasm font other news, Montana had 188k mail-in votes received before today. They are on my “next Western state to be overrun and invaded by Califernya libruls” for MT-1.
  12. The National Vote Interstate Compact will replace Electoral College, ya stupids.
  13. Watch out, you’ll get called a helpless dumbass for posting the D candidate needs to make up 5.6% percentage points across Houston, Dallas-Ft.Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and El Paso. Probably get called a slut too if you mention first election post-Dobbs.
  14. In the 5 months since that post, Mexico has picked up their own enforcement and US numbers have dropped, Trump ordered Republicans not to pass bipartisan legislation, and now the old cooterbob is blowing the dust off our nation’s fastball for immigration spikes.
  15. Oil n Guess thread is full of concerned folks wondering how this didn’t bring $100/bbl
  16. So with Phelan winning his nomination, he also gets his first challenger to Speaker, Shelby Slawson. She is a rude redhead. She’s also been embarrassingly schooled on her heartbeat bill bullshit by Donna Howard two sessions ago while a gaggle of Karens stand beside her for strength. Gets good around 2:30 when she’s can’t read definitions anymore.
  17. This is news people have to address immediately. Slowplaying it confirms the biggest Trump ailments after Fox assaulted Trump by calling AZ early in ‘20.
