Wake Up! The Stock Market Is Crashing, Layoffs Have Surged More Than 200 Percent, And We Are Being Warned A Depression Is Coming

I am trying to find the words to describe the economic carnage that we are witnessing right now.  Even before President Trump unveiled his new tariffs, the U.S. economy was rapidly heading in the wrong direction, layoffs were soaring, and stock prices were steadily falling.  But now it is as if enormous amounts of gasoline have been suddenly poured on the fire.  Trump’s tariffs have caused a massive wave of panic on Wall Street, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 1,679 points on Thursday.  That was the biggest decline that we have seen since the early days of the pandemic in 2020.  The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq also experienced the largest declines that we have seen since 2020.  Everywhere you look there is carnage.  The small-cap Russell 2000 index has now fallen more than 20 percent from the peak, and that officially puts it in bear market territory.  What we are witnessing is absolutely horrifying.

Boom! Trump’s “Higher Than Expected” Tariffs Will Be An Epic Shock To Our Standard Of Living And To The Global Economy As A Whole

The global trade war is officially heating up.  President Trump just unveiled a series of tariffs that were higher than expected, and business leaders all over the world are absolutely stunned.  For many of those that have made a killing importing goods into the United States, their businesses have now been ruined.  For many of those that manufacture their goods right here in the United States, President Trump’s tariffs are very welcome news.  The tariffs that Trump has just announced will go into effect right away, and stock futures are plunging as I write this article.  During the economic chaos that is ahead, there will be winners and there will be losers.  But without a doubt, the global trade war that has now fully erupted will certainly be an enormous shock to the global economy.

How Many Millions Of People Are Fraudulently Receiving Social Security Checks, And Why Is The Left Throwing A Massive Temper Tantrum About Revelations Of Fraud?

One of the biggest scandals in the history of our government is starting to be revealed, and the implications are enormous.  According to the Social Security Administration more than 71 million Americans are receiving Social Security checks, and according to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services more than 68 million Americans are enrolled in Medicare.  But the most recent census conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau found that there were only 55.8 million people that were age 65 or older living in the United States in 2020.  Obviously, there is something seriously wrong with these numbers.  We should be so glad that Elon Musk and his team are looking for fraud in the system, because it appears that we are being ripped off on a massive scale.

The Iranians Load Missiles “Onto Launchers In All Underground Missile Cities” After Trump Threatens Them With “Bombing The Likes Of Which They Have Never Seen Before”

The Trump administration is assembling an armada of bombers at a military base on the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, and meanwhile the Iranians have loaded their missile launchers and are prepared to instantly respond to any attack. In other words, we have never been closer to an apocalyptic war in the Middle East than we are right now.  I really do not understand why more people are not talking about this, because I am convinced that this could become one of the biggest stories of 2025.  Once Iranian ballistic missiles start falling in Israeli cities and on U.S. bases throughout the Middle East, there will be no turning back. Unfortunately, it appears that peace is not likely at this point. (Read More...)

Have you ever not been able to sleep at night because you are stressed out about your finances?  If so, you are certainly not alone.  When there is simply not enough money coming in to pay all the bills, the pressure can be excruciating.  The cost of food, housing and other essentials has been rising much faster than paychecks have in recent years, and now a huge wave of mass layoffs has begun.  According to Challenger, Gray & Christmas, employers in the United States announced 172,017 job cuts last month.  That was the highest level that we have seen for the month of February since the depths of the Great Recession in 2009… (Read More...)

The Elite Already Control Almost All The Wealth – So Why Will They Need Us Once AI Can Take Over Nearly All Of Our Jobs?

Is your job in danger?  We live at a time when the development of artificial intelligence is growing at an exponential rate.  AI can already perform lots of tasks better and far more efficiently than humans can, and it appears to be just a matter of time before AI can do virtually everything better and far more efficiently than humans can.  So once we get to that stage, why will the elite need us?   Throughout human history, the wealthy have needed the labor of the poor.  But if AI will soon be able to do almost all of the labor that we have been doing, what use will we be?

55 Ways That Everything That You Think That You Own Is Being Systematically Taken Away From You

The entire system has been designed to generate as much revenue from your activity as possible until someday you eventually drop dead.  It is tax season, and that means that it is time to feed the largest and most bloated government in the history of the entire planet once again.  Of course the federal income tax is just one of the ways that they are systematically draining your wealth.  As you will see below, there are literally dozens of taxes that Americans must pay each year.  Many of our politicians seem to revel in inventing ways to extract money out of us, and that needs to stop.

We Are Being Told The Odds Of A Recession Are Rising As Economic Conditions Deteriorate All Around Us

Is the U.S. economy headed for a recession?  Nobody can deny that consumer confidence is plummeting, home sales are way down, mass layoffs are being conducted all over the nation, thousands of stores are closing, and a global trade war has erupted.  Meanwhile, the Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow model is currently projecting that the U.S. economy will shrink at an annualized rate of 1.8 percent during the first quarter of 2025.  Needless to say, none of these are good signs.
