Yesterday QoS McHillbilly pulled himself a Jim Cramer
We are going to see a smoking hot jobs number Friday, says Jim Cramer
Turns out that it’s all government jobs and social services jobs. 209,000 total. But wait, there’s more! If you subtract the revisions from May and from April, which total 110,000, then fewer than 100k new jobs were added. That’s not enough to keep up with population growth.
But hey, don’t believe me. Just ask a black dude. Black unemployment ticked up 0.4%, and is now at 6.0%. Oh, and the unemployment rate for Hispanics is up, too, by another 0.3%. You’ve gotta be white to see gains in Joe Biden’s dystopia – white unemployment dropped 0.2%.

The economy is slowing down, no matter how much QoS McHillbilly feels the need to cheerlead you into believing otherwise.

…are you rooting for people to keep their jobs or loss of jobs and home values cratering?
We listed a rental house for sale this week – doubled in value since purchase 13 years ago, and it’s done what we wanted it to do for us. The mortgage rate spike lowers its value because it’s more expensive for buyers of limited means to pay higher interest costs.
So no, lower home values aren’t in our interest.
If I’m “rooting” for anything, it’s for options prices to remain elevated due to volatility in the markets. If one sells calls when share prices are higher and sells puts when share prices are lower, the options premiums can be very, very lucrative. In a dead market, premiums are lower. When Generac or Tesla shares bounce around the way they have of late, there’s enough volatility to push options prices higher. That’s good, regardless of whether the overall direction if higher or lower. Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit’s Generac shares are up 40 bucks since he bought them, but I have made more trading the options on GNRC shares than he has owning them.
Do other Americans think it’s good that the markets are so volatile right now? Doesn’t matter, really. My family and I think it’s good. We’ll lose a little on the sale price of the house but more than make up for it in the markets. It’s what Robinhood Dumbfuck Rabbit refers to as gambling.

Last year there were two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth, Q1 and Q2. This formerly was the definition of recession used by the NBER. Now, of course, the definition is different:
One would think that six months of declining GDP would reach a threshold of significance. Ah, but there’s another get-out-of-jail-free exclusionary piece to the puzzle:
IOW as long as the government is expanding – see @ 16 for the latest example – then all sectors are not declining, and the NBER may choose to cover for a Democrat president by denying that a broad economic decline over a period of several months meets its new and improved definition of recession.

Now you start from zero in June. You don’t subtract MAY from June and any idiot would tell you that. If you have $100 and put it in the bank and the bank takes $10 in fees and then the next month you add $200 you don’t have $190 in the account. That not how accounting works either.

Now wait a sec.. I thought you were going to go noun, verb, chicks with dicks until now and November 2024..
You’re pulling out all the stops.. You’re that desperate to avoid an audit.
s’ok.. more entertainment for the rest of us.
What an asshole. I bet it’s a Republican. spews:
@87 between now and November 2024, excuse me.

Your a fucking bigot.
Whatever reflexes that obviously true statement triggers does not change the plain truth of it. Calling the mere observation of your pathetically weak character a “card” that is “played” is honestly giving too much credit. There is no contest going on here. No real debate or any other game or showdown.
You open your stupid fat pie hole and out comes unabridged racism. We note it. Again. And we move on.
If you are any kind of victim here, it is only by your own stupid hand, asshole. Stop it. Stop being a fucking bigot.
White people are not better. It’s a stupid idea to cling to. And it only harms you.

Just had to pull over to the shoulder to allow President Biden’s motorcade thru traffic spot on RTE 1 Coastal Highway. I suspect they were headed north to Dover Air Force or somewhere near there to get the President. He must be staying in Rehoboth Beach this weekend. Pretty Cool. I suspect that they were headed to go get him in lieu of returning him to because I don’t think they would have let the general public so closet to his motorcade. I’m sure they stop and block traffic when he’s in the car.
It was kind of cool.

Ladies! Really! What the fuck you thinking. You want these fuckers to groom you? You are letting them groom you.
Groomers!

“I question whether the state party has the necessary expertise to spend the money well,” he said.
The withdrawal of bankrollers like Weiser reflects the high price Republicans in the battleground states of Michigan and Arizona are paying for their full-throated support of former President Trump and his unsubstantiated claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
The two parties have hemorrhaged money in recent years, undermining Republican efforts to win back the ultra-competitive states that could determine who wins the White House and control of the U.S. Congress in next November’s elections, according to a Reuters review of financial filings, plus interviews with six major donors and three election campaign experts.

krackpot klownspiracy mongering is how ya get more Biden. heh.
Joe Biden spews:
I need to have a talk with the White House staff and remind them to not bring nose candy to work.
What an asshole. I bet it’s a Republican. spews:

PPP leeches hmmm? Lots of repukes there.. that’s ok.. got it.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@86 The court’s “originalists” go to original interpretations only when it suits their purposes. For example, the original intent of the 2nd Amendment is that frontiersmen would band together in local militias to defend themselves against Indian attacks with their smoothbore muzzle-loading flintlocks. It simply didn’t contemplate AR-15s. These justices wrote that in themselves.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@96 Yes, but PPP goes to jawb kweators, not job takers. Forgiving student loans undermines the concept of cheap labor, while GIVING taxpayer money to employers to pay their employees reinforces it.
As part owner of nearly three dozen businesses, I’m a jawb kweator too, and deserve to have money showered on me.

Do you care about gun control? Do you care about The Heterosexual Neanderthal Virus?
Then don’t give a fuck about them! Asshole.
Unserious Twat spews:
The Secret Service has recently been forced to retire the drug-sniffing dog used to protect the White House.
Well done! You make this seem far more worthy of discussion than our own fascism, treason and strong desire to end democracy and replace it with a totalitarian fascist state.
Keep it up. You’re doing good. Have you talked about YLB’s fucked kids yet? That;s a winner. And if you can somehow connect this to GE and 3M, you’ll have truly pwned these libbie scum.
As for your commitment to unserious twattiness? I salute you!

That should become the new name of this blog. Even my cat is laughing at the dumbfuck.
Vicious Troll spews:
The fact that the White House coke belongs to Hunter does not mean that his father does not love him.
The withholding of fatherly love is reserved for the bastard children of addict chidren, not the addict children themselves.
The president loves Ashley despite her well-publicized drug problems as well.
How do we really know that Beau did not die from an overdose?
George's cat spews:
Dumbfuck alert! Dumbfuck alert! Dumbfuck alert!

Here, Kitty, you’ve earned yourself a treat.

@102 “The fact that the White House coke belongs to Hunter”
That’s not a fact, it’s wishful thinking on your part.
George and his cat spews:
Bad Kitty!! Now he’s bleeding all over this fucking blog!
Hmm, here’s another treat for you.
Oh wait, he’s not moving. Did you just…. Oh my God, he’s fucking dead!
Bad kitty!!!
George and his cat spews:
That’s not a fact, it’s wishful thinking on your part.
To think he actually believes he’s pwning people here with his stupid, pulled-from-his-ass comments.
This is so sad. If he wasn’t such a stupid fucking traitor, I’d shed a tear for him. But he is, so I won’t.
Sigh!
