When visiting Shrewd'm with a laptop, it can be pleasant to hold Command (or Ctrl with Windows) and '+' a few times. The site scales to allow any font size, and the larger font can be pleasant to read even for Shrewds with perfect sight! For luxury Shrewdness, you can combine that with setting the browser to full screen. You'll then find yourself Shrewding a lot.

"So far in the back half of 2025, the economy has created 113k jobs. In the full history of payroll data,
that is the weakest semi annual gain we've seen, excluding the rebound periods after recessions.” ~Schwab

Banksy: So far in the back half of 2025, the economy has created 113k jobs.
Huh.
Biden averaged about 390,000 new jobs per month for four years.
Dozy Don hasn't created 390,000 new jobs for the past six months combined. Since retaking the presidency, Dozy Don has added 499,000 jobs, a little more than one month of the Biden presidency... but Dozy Don has managed to drive the economy into the ground in less than a year.
BTW, where are the Epstein files?

Keep in mind Biden's numbers are skewed by the impact of the plague, just like the "supply side economic miracle" of the 80s was distorted by proponents measuring from the bottom of the recession in 82, and Reagan running the largest peacetime deficits in the history of the republic, to that point.
The net sifter reports 6.4M jobs in 2021, 4.5-4.8M in 2022, 2.7M in 2023, and 2.2M in 2024.
BTW, where are the Epstein files?
They are still being scrubbed of all references to Epstein's links to Mossad. ;^)

So fcukin' what? Biden guided us through that plague, unlike Dozy Don who ignored it and let over a million Americans die.
Every president plays the hand their dealt. Dozy Don was dealt a Goldilocks economy and has turned it into a losing hand.

VIRTUALLY NO EMPLOYMENT GROWTH since "Liberation day". Unemployment is now up to 4.6%...
Americas collapsing economy raises new questions about Kamala Harris's economic policies.
Reminder:
Trump ended his first presidency with an economy that had -2.7 million fewer jobs than when he started —
becoming the first president in modern history to experience a net loss of jobs over his time in office.
Literally the worst jobs president that God ever created!
All while adding an unheard of $8 trillion to the national debt, an inconceivable feat!

And at least the White House is bedecked in tacky gold gewgaws, and at least it looks like a bomb took out the East Wing, just in time to look its historic best for the festive holiday season.
Winning!

And don't forget the Arch! We are getting a Triumphal Arch (Trumpfull Arch?) and it is going to be so much better than that pathetic little French arch.
Winning!
Did you hear Trump...he said every country in the world has an Arch and we should, too. His lips move, he lies.
