China has added over 90 nuclear weapons new nuclear weapons to his Arsenal since January of 2023 uh so they've increased them from 410 to 500 United States has a lot more but you have to remember these 500 are new missiles um we have a lot of missiles there are 50 plus years old they've been sitting around uh will they work when we need them hopefully we will never need them LL flooring a big flooring company uh used to be known as Lumber Liquidators is shutting all of its doors cuz it's is going out of business it's been in business over 30 years uh it is one of the largest uh flooring suppliers uh they tried to find someone to buy the company but so far not working out uh so they will be closing their Stores um around 2,000 people will lose their jobs the reason the company's closing down at this point is just because the retail Market has collapsed um they've had to close most of their stores right now um two 2,600 in the first four months of 2024 closed and by the end of the year looks like they're going to be closing 8,000 uh will have been lost and the total um also dollar the dollar store has starting to close some of its Stores um they're shutting 370 of its locations across California Texas Arizona and Nevada uh a th000 closures for Family Dollar in its sister company Dollar Tree will happen over the next 3 years um Express and that's usually in the mall they filed for bankruptcy in April and they'll be shutting 955 of their Outlets down uh also rout 21 that's a teen I think clothing store uh they'll be shutting 543 stores down so lots of places shutting down get get into the uh places where they serve you food a lot of restaurants mom and pop places are going out of business also this is a boots underground from Jacksonville Florida at the local Walmart I bought an 18c count large egg for 412 on August 20th then on August 28th I bought another 18 count at the same place was $557 uh so in eight days it has definitely gone up everyone is saying their egg prices are going up this person said please do not use my name I never use a name I don't even put the name on this piece of paper uh so rest assured if you give me a boots on the ground I will not do anything to identify you at all this person says I live in northwest Washington State and we manufacture airplane Parts mostly commercial but we do do a small amount of military today and that was a few days ago 30 delegates from NATO along with us represent representative Rick Larsson will be touring our facility and this has already happened uh focus on the future of security space and Military this is part of a 4-day tour throughout Washington and Alaska there's nothing in the media regarding this they're traveling in the area by bus and we only spend one hour at our facility so I assume they'll have several places to tour during that day I've never seen this before so I find it very interesting a friend who was taking her 8-year-old to a doctor a car cut in front of her and she blew the horn the lady who cut her off stopped her car got out with a gun in her hands it scared my friend to death as she had both children in the car people have lost their minds uh shooting daily and uh Montgomery um be safe update from northeast Pennsylvania this is a long I'm going to read it to you because it's just seeing what people are going through because you're probably going through the same thing or you know someone my husband lost his job a few months ago he's had two interviews but did not get a job offer he's had several good leads from people he knows and followed up on them but not getting even an interview yet he just applied for about 20 jobs at Verizon that are a great fit for his experience we have his severance pay and he's finally for unemployment now uh we will put 30 to 40% of the unemployment we in savings for taxes I got a part-time job making $17 an hour for 25 to 30 hours a week starting next week with training it's a 45 minute plus commute but a beautiful commute uh the hours may increase as the years go on year go on after I train for this job and start it I'm going to apply uh for some local places for just a weekend job just Saturday and Sunday each week retail that way I can get close to full-time hours with two part-time jobs we have health insurance for a few more months and we're eligible to purchase it at the group break for my husband's old company and he was almost there for 25 years our son started trade school and has started housing there um which will include his breakfast daily dinner once a week uh they have a small kitchen so he can make his food there they have his I guess tuition paid up for the first semester so that is good it won't affect them um so we have a very tiny home um or they have a home and they're thinking about maybe relocating to a tiny home Community um so they have some decisions to make my husband and I went to a sunflower Farm the other day and this is the same people the people walking around were 75% Spanish speaking or other foreign language it was weird definitely the demographics of our country is is changing greatly uh groceries and gas prices remain very high jobs are scarce uh um so these people are just average people man the the husband the man lost his job um so pray for this person and pray for many other people that are looking for jobs or better jobs this is a food update from this person USDA working with the National Association of food distribution programs on Indian reservations are not receiving their essential shipments of food uh tribal Nations around the country are having bare warehouses um so things are not getting shipped to them so just more uh more problems for everyone this person said my homeowners insurance went up 65% I've never had a claim I'm not in a flood area um this is about the diamond market now Diamond Market does really good when the economy is um doing good but it's a downturn in the diamond market and it's getting worse also Free Fall as cash strap consumers have been shunning luxury items um also the Rolex watches they're going down a little bit too so uh people are cutting back and that's from the super rich to the the super poor the number of available jobs in the US shrank more than expected in July um they had 7.67 million openings but they were projecting a lot more 7.91 so there's definitely more people looking for jobs this is from Springfield I I would say Springfield Illinois uh eggs are up to $6.50 for an 18 pack uh 8020 ground beef has been $3.99 $3.99 a pound for a long time now it's $449 um and she goes into other prices so basically the bottom line is everything's going up um this is from the Solar Company uh Luma Lu M uh I I I um Luma I think it's Luma but they filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy and there was a ton of other companies that was listed in the article and the reason is uh just the solar demand has crashed and that's probably because uh people don't have the money for it also there's some states that are not paying back as much so if you were going to do a grid tie sell back to the power company some companies are or some power companies are not paying you uh a fair fair amount so it doesn't make it worthwhile to do this is from someone that said I was contracted to provide security for an unemployment office in northern Michigan I check in everyone who has an appointment and Walkins to see an agent this time of year is usually dead but it has been steadily increasing has been a busy summer we've been we've had people Drive 4 hours to see an agent and this is at the unemployment office because of all of the auto manufacturer layoffs they can't get into their local office so they have to drive hours to get to this one um because all the appointments at their local offices are taken we had one company that produced Auto Interior plastic go out of business because they had no contracts this company has been in business for 30 years um we've had Auto Engineers different levels of management digital marketing staff Dei people geologists from the oil industry pharmacists from R Aid uh because a bunch of R AIDS were closed in Michigan we're seeing a lot of upper management coming this month AI is starting to have a big impact on Supply staff in the medical industry um our last info was Dodge has cut 400 engineering staff and 300 plus manufacturing Chevy is at 300 plus layoffs um Ford has started layoffs in that area just the little insight is what I'm seeing when one more note we are seeing more older people come in looking at the job board than young people probably around 80% so you might have a lot of people old people coming in because their social security or their pension money is not cutting it with inflation as high it is so they have to go find something at least part-time uh glad to see in South Carolina my state the State Board of Education uh passed a cell phone ban on Tuesday it won't go to affect till January but schools can also make stricter policies but you have to at least do the minor or what they want you to do uh so you need to keep your communication advice off and in their Backpacker Locker during the school day so that is good um you've probably seen this statistic and if you haven't uh this is phenomenal since October 2019 native born us workers have lost 1.4 million jobs over that same period why foreign born workers have gained 3 million jobs so the influx of people in there they are taking uh us jobs uh which is just creating this vicious cycle of more people being laid off um this is from Fox News and it was New York City Department of homeless Services they're starting to give away taxpayer dollars $4,000 to help people transition out of the city shelters and these are all illegal immigrants or immigrants uh US citizens can apply so you're going to get $4,000 to get you from the city shelter into your own accommodation and that's not counting all of the other freebies that are being given away and the city's even admitted that they give uh cards credit cards with money already on it they estimate the city council estimates it cost $388 per day for New York City to hous and care for a single migrant household just do 388 times 30 days in a month that's phenomenal money um what's that like 10 Gan or no that's more than $10,000 of taxpayers money using to house illegal immigrants the US Postal Service plans to increase certain package shipping prices for the 2024 peak season uh and they're going up 5.5% for priority 4.9 for priority mail Express and so forth and so on uh they have they need to bring in additional Revenue because they're basically broke and goinging broker every day um Arch best Corporation they also have uh ABF Freight with them but they also announced major increases on freight charges uh 5.9% um Ram pickup trucks 1.5 million of them are being recalled over a software issue a draft King and white hat hat gaming were fined $22,500 by the state of Connecticut because for one whole whole week for one whole week on over 20,000 spins so people gambling not a single winner so I guarantee you something is rigged on there so they were fine 22,500 Social Security recipients uh you will face a 21% cut uh very soon now this could be many years from now but it's going to happen because by 2033 the Social Security fund is going to run dry um and they're going to have to make drastic Cuts so a 21% cut would be like typically someone getting $197 a month living off, 197 you would be reduced down about $400 now I've talked to a lot of people that watch this channel that they don't make close to 19900 I know people $ $800 retirement from Social Security and they're barely making it so there you go some news for the day yes it's Doom and Gloom take this nasty stuff and it's all economic it's all generated by politicians leftwing rightwing it doesn't matter politicians uh have spent more money running the printing press causing inflation and causing your life to be miserable so if you got anyone to get mad at Republican Democrat political people are the reason people we put in power uh are destroying our lifestyle thanks for watching
