1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: So we got some jobs and economy numbers a little 2 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: bit earlier today. And when you see this reported on 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,680 Speaker 1: various news stations depending on which news. 4 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 2: Outlet you watch, do not be fooled by the headline. 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 1: Okay, because you're going to see the more liberal stations 6 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: talk about growing unemployment. 7 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 2: Well that's not good, right, No, But the good. 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: News is that the private sector added jobs in October 9 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: and November, but government payroll shrunk, so the size of 10 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: the government's getting smaller. But those jobs count when you're 11 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: putting together the big reports for October and November. So 12 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: the unemployment number ticked up just a little bit, jumped 13 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: up to four point six percent. I think they were 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: anticipating four point four or five, but it went up 15 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: to four point six. Seems a little high, But it's 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: a decline in government employment that offset all the games 17 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: in the private sector. So individual businesses sound like they're 18 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: doing a little bit better. There was a report that 19 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: the average family in America had an extra thousand dollars 20 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: to spend this past year. 21 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 3: Wondering if I'm wondering again, and I heard Tony can't 22 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 3: say this too, I'm wondering if AI is playing a 23 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: role in some of some of this downturn. 24 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: And it could be very well could be. 25 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 3: I hate to see what look like in ten years. 26 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 3: AI is going to be doing our job right now. 27 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 2: AI is kind of a part of our job right now. 28 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: But the US economy added sixty four thousand jobs in November. 29 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: The Department of Labor said that's higher than expected. 30 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: But the reason you're going to. 31 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: See headlines of growing unemployment are a bunch of people 32 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: who have been drifting off the government have lost their gigs. 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 2: So take that for what you will. 34 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: Federal government payroll shrank by one hundred and sixty two 35 00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,279 Speaker 1: thousand people. 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 2: Federal government payroll. 37 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 3: DOGE doing its job, even though it's been disbanded. 38 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 2: I had such. 39 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: High hopes for DOGE though, man like the concept of 40 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: it still excites me. But there are so many people 41 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: that are in bed with, like all these butt sniffers 42 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: and big businesses and lobbyists and donors. 43 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 2: They will never let DOGE do their thing. 44 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: Because you had some senators going, we support Elon, we 45 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: support cutting the cost. Oh wait, the opera house in 46 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: my district might get cut. 47 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: Never mind, we're out screw that. 48 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: So yeah, I like what Elon and big balls, and 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: all of those guys were trying to do that team 50 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: of elite boy. 51 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: Wonders forgot they outed big balls. They didn't somebody didn't 52 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,239 Speaker 3: They dos him? 53 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: Well, somebody beat the hell out of him too. He 54 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: had a sultan. Yeah, I mean he was out there. 55 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: It was like he was docks. He was out there. 56 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: But somebody beat the hell out of him Washington, DC. 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: And honestly, I think this is my opinion, I feel 58 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: like that was the straw that broke the camel's back 59 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: for Trump sending in the FEDS, like because Washington DC 60 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: was the first place. He's like, all right, national Guards 61 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: coming in. If you guys can't protect people who are 62 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: trying to save us money and these people are getting 63 00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: jumped in the streets, that's it. Because I think Trump 64 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: felt bad because it was a young, younger guy, younger kid. 65 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: They called him like a boy wonder, just a genius 66 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: with math skills. 67 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 2: And that's when Elon Musk brought him in. 68 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: So if Elon's bringing you in to be like the 69 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 1: brains of the operation, that should tell you something right there. 70 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: But no, I love the concept of DOJ. 71 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: It just never really was able to be executed because 72 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: too many people didn't want their pet projects outed and exposed.
