I went to Walmart Friday about 9AM to get jelly and never saw the place so empty?

Interesting...genesis goes back to 2018, who was around in...doesn't matter...

Something smells funny...if I had to guess I'd say this is something that gets offered back as a concession on something bigger that humps as harder...that is the DemoComie way anyway...we get humped...UniParty shot-callers get richer...

I mean this "the company’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party" line clinched it for me...what isn't controlled by the CCP and who are these idiots not aware of it?

My BS-detector is blaring...

File this one for follow up!

And where did they get the money to splurge again, you ditz?

The ditz must be tone-deaf to the whirling of the presses...and well as nose-blind to the pork spewing out of the Pelosi-Schumer Congress's!

The half-assed efforts to tame inflation that includes still-humming presses seems to be, well...

So, the red lines up with troubled years?

B-b-but we're told "all is well"?

Cut through the noise...

They reserve the right to do whatever they want...and when the time comes to crash things so that the CBDC can enslave the population...

First they have to hard-tip their hand by banning all private DC...

So very much chatter about the "R" word!

I wonder if the folks (whoever is left) at WaPo are still saying all is well and the JoeBama economy has never been stronger?

The following are 15 facts that prove that a massive economic meltdown is already happening right now…

#1 Existing home sales have now fallen for 10 consecutive months.

#2 Existing home sales are down 35.4 percent over the last 12 months. That is the largest year over year decline in existing home sales since the collapse of Lehman Brothers.

#3 Homebuilder sentiment has now dropped for 12 consecutive months.

#4 Home construction costs have risen more than 30 percent since the beginning of 2022.

#5 The number of single-family housing unit permits has fallen for nine months in a row.

#6 The Empire State Manufacturing Index has plunged “to a reading of negative 11.2 in December”. That figure was way, way below expectations.

#7 In November, we witnessed the largest decline in retail sales that we have seen all year long.

#8 Even the biggest names on Wall Street are starting to let workers go. In fact, it is being reported that Goldman Sachs will soon lay off approximately 4,000 employees.

#9 The Federal Reserve is admitting that the number of actual jobs in the United States has been overstated by over a million.

#10 U.S. job cuts were 417 percent higher in November than they were during the same month a year ago.

#11 A recent Wall Street Journal survey found that approximately two-thirds of all Americans expect the economy to get even worse next year.

#12 A newly released Bloomberg survey has discovered that 70 percent of U.S. economists believe that a recession is coming in 2023.

#13 Inflation continues to spiral wildly out of control. At this point, a head of lettuce now costs 11 dollars at one grocery store in California.

#14 Overall, vegetable prices in the United States are more than 80 percent higher than they were at this same time last year.

#15 Thanks to the rapidly rising cost of living, 63 percent of the U.S. population is now living paycheck to paycheck.

I suspect such an action (that should have happened about 30 years ago to matter a damn) would belly-flop...many, like myself who probably won't see 75 given all the ways the totalitarians are trying to murder us with right now from starvation, the culling and war...will opt to retire immediately and enjoy our favorite beverage as the world is murdered...

What?

You expect me to work and pay taxes for such a sh*tshow?

FU!
