https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/06/07/may-jobs-unemployment/ Job creation accelerated from the previous month and even soared past average monthly growth gains of the year so far, which economists have described as a jobs boom after the labor market cooling that characterized much of 2023. Employers have now added jobs for 41 consecutive months, going back to January 2021. Average hourly wage growth accelerated sharply in May to $34.91, which is up 4.1 percent from the previous year. Still, wages have consistently beaten inflation for nearly a year, in a boost to American workers’ standard of living after years of wages falling behind inflation. Most signs point to a job market in a healthy spot. Layoffs remain near historic lows as employers are cautious to let people go; workers are staying in their place, rather than switching jobs at the elevated rate of the pandemic’s end when employers had to compete fiercely to keep up with demand. “You have to zoom out and look at the overall picture,” said Julia Pollak, chief economist at ZipRecruiter. “This is a new normal — a less dynamic and more stay-in-place labor market where companies aren’t firing people quite as much and people aren’t switching jobs quite as much. As a result, companies aren’t having to hire quite as much either.” 👍 Economists say employers facing elevated interest rates that have made borrowing more expensive have been expecting rate cuts later this year, which can spur economic growth. And recent job data gives central bank policymakers some evidence that the economy is approaching a “soft landing,” meaning it is neither running to hot inflation nor veering toward a recession. One reason that the labor market has grown steadily over the past year, boosting the overall economy as job openings fell, is due to a major pickup in immigration that helped close long-standing labor shortages. More than 3 million immigrants arrived to the United States in 2023, according to data from the Congressional Budget Office. Trump's immigrant round up would kill the economy! “Immigration has played very important role in bolstering our economy,” said Joe Brusuelas, chief economist for the accounting firm RSM US. “If we do see a curtailment of immigration, then I would expect that would create a tighter labor market. That would likely send the unemployment rate down and cause wages to rise.”

A Case For Locking Him Up!

A former federal prosecutor says there is an “appreciable chance” former President Trump could be in prison until the end of his life if he loses the 2024 election, remarking on the number and scope of criminal prosecutions against him. Harry Litman, a former U.S. attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania during the Clinton administration, made the remarks to former Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) on his podcast Wednesday. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4707359-trump-die-in-prison-reelection-new-york-georgia-2020-election-interference/ -

Our GIs are not suckers and losers, the real losers should accept the results of elections and things are actually pretty good in the country now -
Better example of a conspiracy is the Jan 6 coup plotters. They conspired to overthrow an election in the United States of America
