| The Golden Age. |
Last month's jobs report was not good. It shows once again that under the chaos of Donald J. Trump, the United States has reached its shelf life. Now as we enter the seventh month of the war with Iran, we are officially in a trade war with Canada, mass shootings have suprassed the count of 400 and Dolly Parton passed away.

Days of decline are ahead.
- Free and fair elections are degraded;
- Liberal rights of freedom of speech, press and association decline, impairing the ability of the political opposition to challenge the government, hold it to account, and propose alternatives to the current regime;
- The rule of law (i.e., judicial and bureaucratic restraints on the government) is weakened, such as when the independence of the judiciary is threatened, or when civil service tenure protections are weakened or eliminated.
- An over-emphasis on national security as response to acts of terrorism or perceived antagonists.
- Politicians can't agree on funding essential needs and services which trigger spiteful pain on the citizens.
Fuck the hypocrisy of President Donald J. Trump, Republicans, the far right, Zionists, former president Joe Biden, Democrats, Israel and the junk food media.
Israel and its propaganda is not working this time around. Too many folks around the world see how the United States, Russia and Israel operate. The world wants it to stop. The U.S. is the only country still backing this evil regime of Israel.
This ๐ฎ๐ฑ And Zionism Will Be Regarded As A Symbol Of Evil In The 21st Century.

| The Twin Falls mass shooting. A man launched a massacre on an In-and-Out burger franchise. |
Public officials and federal elected officials from both sides have tried to push more nanny state policies in defense of Israel. Officials from the Bush, Obama, Biden and Trump Administration have ran cover for this apartheid ethnostate.
Republicans can't govern in the House of Representatives and Senate. Every government shutdown is a prime example of how their incompetence is in full effect. They are pushing authoritarianism in states they have control of. They are banning swatting, honing and regulations on testing. But when it comes to people being killed by firearms, they refuse to do something. Republicans will sabotage themselves and Trump. The Big Beautiful Bill itself is a disgrace that could impact millions of working class Americans, the poor, the needy, transgender Americans, professional gamblers, the adult entertainment industry and so many others. The tax code is changed and more Americans are getting less in tax refunds thanks to the no taxes on tips and overtime. It will shock many who file their taxes.

| Hakeem Jeffries isn't listening to the growing frustrations within the Democratic Party. |
Republicans see the only path to victory is basically obstruct and complain about the media, Democrats and former Republicans. They won't offer solutions or policies. All they care about is trying to keep folks angry with culture wars and distractions. Democrats want to be the big tent party but always want to pivot to the middle or develop centrist ideas to win over Republicans who will never change.

Food prices, energy prices, rent, city services and college education have risen. Companies are struggling to find workers. They are now trying to push incentives to get workers in. However, there is always a catch to working entry level jobs that make over $20 an hour. Folks must work hours that do not accommodate home and social life. It may only be part time work or temporary. Some jobs may force overtime or refuse to pay for work rendered. With unions being weaken by states, it may be an at-will company. So if you are on social media, protesting injustices, supporting controversial issues or making threats to local officials; you could lose your job.
The safety net prevents a person from robbing you of your luxuries.
The safety net is only 10% of the federal spending. The way some people put it, 50% of the federal spending goes to food stamps and welfare. Some people believe that the safety net is making people lazy. And this is the stuff I've heard from people who think that it will never happen to them. They get their arousal over a person using an EBT card to pay for name brand items or expensive food.
With the rising food and gas prices, people are turning to food stamps, food banks and government assistance to keep themselves from landing in the homeless shelter.
Without a safety net, these people will rob and kill those who have the luxuries of having food in the refrigerator or in the pantry. They would steal fuel, water, bread and meat to keep feeding their families. And yet, these Republicans, Democrats and their conservative allies are thinking the poor are the reasons for a potential economic recession.

Companies are cautious about hiring employees. Because of the Trump administration rolling back DEI and arresting undocumented workers, employers are struggling to keep employees. It puts more stress on the workers, managers and suppliers.
With the average wages stagnant, many are not looking forward to work at jobs that pays dirt wages. Many who worked in the retail, restaurant and low end service industry are not willing to take a job for less than $10 an hour. Matter of fact, no one can survive on $15 an hour.

Holding these lawmakers accountable is not just a pledge, but a promise. You need to learn who represents your community. Your local community member, your school board member, your mayor, your state representative, your state senator, your governor, your U.S. Representative, your U.S. Senator and the president need to be held accountable for their actions.
Israel must be held accountable for war crimes and the U.S. must end its aid.
Our taxpayer money should not help Israel any further.
