Another shockingly good jobs report shows America’s economy under Biden admin is booming
in Politics In recent weeks, Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft and Cisco, among others, have announced staffing reductions. And the layoffs haven’t been contained to tech. UPS said it was axing 12,000 jobs, saving the company $1 billion, CEO Carol Tome said late last month, citing softer demand. Many of the largest retail, media and entertainment companies have also announced workforce reductions, in addition to other cuts. Warner Bros. Discovery has slashed content spending and headcount as part of $4 billion in total cost savings from the merger of Discovery and WarnerMedia. Disney initially promised $5.5 billion in cost reductions in 2023, fueled by 7,000 layoffs. The company has since increased its savings promise to $7.5 billion, and executives suggested in its Feb. 7 quarterly earnings report that it may exceed that target. Last week, Paramount Global announced hundreds of layoffs in an effort to “operate as a leaner company and spend less,” according to CEO Bob Bakish. Comcast’s NBCUniversal, the parent company of CNBC, has also recently eliminated jobs. |

For examples, title 42, stay in Mexico and barriers blocking access for border patrol. Since congress has failed to make any immigration reform to fix broken system, courts have been dictating immigration policies for decades. To comply with laws, Biden administration has been working to rebuild immigration system after Trump mismanagement. American immigration council say Trump has made immigration problems worse for Biden. For example, millions of asylum claims backlog. |

@THEMUGG At least I'm not getting texts from buddies about Publix & COSTCO having toilet paper in their stores like 4 years ago. Life isn't so bad bud. Anyway, what I don't understand is we know where people are attempting to enter but we're not stopping them on the Southwest borders. I'm telling ya when we go out fishing, many Coast Guard boats can be seen patrolling our waters & boaters here are quick to notify the CG when boats of illegals are seen. See something, say something just like we tell our grandchildren. |

Risk of being killed in a normal homicide is 311 times greater than being killed by a foreign terrorist in the US. I'm astounded by the number of people that try to justify what's happening to our country right now. |

@Midnight1 Which ones are correct? You & RS have no idea. Lib media outlets are painting a Trump win as the end of the world.......problem is that he was already potus once so none of their scare tactics will work. |

Remington, the nation’s oldest gun manufacturer, told union officials last year that the company chiefs at RemArms, its current name, would end manufacturing in New York in March. The remaining operations in Ilion will relocate to Georgia, a state company leaders believe “supports and welcomes” the firearm industry — delivering a massive blow to the town so intertwined with the factory. The closure will result in the loss of 300 jobs for people living in a town of roughly 7,600. Stephens said the village is expected to lose $1 million in revenue due to the move, in addition to the other financial hits to local businesses in the area. “We are very excited to come to Georgia, a state that not only welcomes business but enthusiastically supports and welcomes companies in the firearms industry,” D’Arcy added in a company statement. “Everyone involved in this process has shown how important business is to the state and how welcoming they are to all business, including the firearms industry.” Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), whose district encompasses Ilion, blamed New York’s “radical anti-Second Amendment policies” shortly after the move’s announcement. “It is because of New York Democrats’ unconstitutional gun grab policies that the oldest gun manufacturer in the country has been run out of the state,” Stefanik said in November 2023. |
