What may really matter is that a deal got inked—details be damned—even if it means poking the Chinese dragon. Trump, ever the salesman, may have mastered the art of the deal, but when it comes to the art of war—trade or otherwise—he’s still painting by numbers.

In the US, services sprang back to life in June—just in time to dodge tariffs—though customers still seem to be holding onto their wallets like it’s 2008. Prices stayed annoyingly high, hiring slipped into reverse, and some savvy firms skipped the job ads and just poached laid-off talent from the big guys. In short: business is picking up, but it’s doing so with one eye on costs and the other on tariffs.

In a nutshell, services bounced back in June, dodging tariffs and trimming hiring, as businesses hustle, prices stay hot, and layoffs turn into talent shopping sprees.

On the surface, the June Non-Farm Payrolls looked like a victory lap: job creation surged unexpectedly, unemployment ticked lower, hourly earnings cooled just enough to soothe inflation hawks, and full-time employment saw a healthy jump.

But scratch beneath the surface, and the celebratory headlines lose their lustre. The bulk of job creation came from Education and Health Services (+51K) and Government (+73K)—sectors either directly funded or heavily subsidized by taxpayer money. In other words, it wasn’t private sector dynamism but state-sponsored expansion doing the heavy lifting. Meanwhile, the federal workforce continued its slow bleed, and the drop in part-time roles hints at rising labour market rigidity.

Don’t pop the champagne yet. That jobless drop? It wasn’t more people getting hired—it was more people giving up and leaving the workforce. Even worse, the average workweek shrank—meaning Americans took home less money despite rising wages. Translation: the labor market isn’t booming, it’s quietly shrinking. But if the headlines sound good, who cares about the fine print?

At the end of the day, unemployment has remained above its two-year average since September 2023—a historically ominous signal that economic storm clouds may be gathering for the next 12 to 24 months.

In a nutshell, June's jobs report looked like a boom, but behind the headlines, it’s just more government hiring, fewer work hours, and a shrinking labor force dressed up as a recovery.

Is anyone shocked that even the so-called “anti-vax crusader” from the last presidential circus is now peeling off the mask—revealing not some noble rebel, but just another career climber playing poker with the #MAGA base to land a comfy government gig?

Turns out the #MAHA agenda was less about “health freedom” and more about quietly marching to the same old Malthusian drumbeat that’s been echoing through global halls of power for decades.

Today marks not just the birth of a nation—but the ignition of a defiant flame against tyranny in all its guises.

The American Founding Fathers didn’t risk everything to create a democracy destined for mob rule—they forged a constitutional republic, built to withstand the storms of power-hungry ambition.

#Freedom like everything else moves in #cycles — rising, falling, threatened most when taken for granted.

To preserve it, we must see the patterns clearly and confront those who would gladly sacrifice liberty on the altar of control.

This 4th of July, remember: Freedom is never granted—it is seized, guarded, and paid for, generation after generation. And the siege never ends.

Anyone who’s peeked behind the crypto curtain knows stablecoins are just shiny Trojan horses—clever wrappers for government debt sold to YOLO investors who think “tokenization” is innovation, not just a rebrand of old tricks.

Case in point: #Germany—teetering on the edge of a sovereign debt meltdown—has handed out an EMI license to AllUnity so they can roll out EURAU, a shiny new euro-pegged stablecoin wrapped in MiCA-approved red tape.

They promise “institutional-grade” transparency and reporting, because nothing screams financial freedom like a blockchain-powered savings bond. Bonus: Galaxy Digital joins the party, and Flow Traders brings the liquidity—because every good trap needs bait.

The timing couldn’t be better—or more telling. As Europe gears up for regulatory supremacy with MiCA fully in force since December 30, 2024, it’s becoming the front line in the stablecoin turf war.

#Tether, the reigning champ of the #stablecoin world, decided MiCA wasn’t worth the hassle, prompting a wave of delistings across Binance, Kraken, and Coinbase for EEA users.

And just like that, the field is wide open for EU-approved alternatives like EURAU to step in and play the “compliant savior”—backed, of course, by the same institutions that never let a good crisis (or regulation) go to waste.

#Switzerland—once famed for its neutrality and yodeling diplomacy—has already eagerly hitched its wagon to the Brussels brigade of armchair generals at the North Atlantic Terror Organisation, better known as #NATO.

Switzerland—once neutral and famously flush thanks to cheese, chocolate, and tax shelters—is now flirting with a 50% inheritance tax so extreme it even targets grieving spouses. Thanks to the Young Socialists, a November referendum could force billionaires to donate half their fortune to the government on their way out—literally, as an exodus of the wealthy seems all but guaranteed.

#Cambodia—a nation still bearing the scars of a brutal past shaped by extremist Keynesian experiments and catastrophic depopulation—now finds itself once again under the shadow of global manipulation. With strings pulled by the #WEF and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the country has become a new pawn in the globalists’ game.

This time, the stage is set for confrontation with neighbouring Thailand, a nation that has dared to resist the relentless advance of the Malthusian agenda by suing #Pfizer for his harmful vaccine.

As the architects of engineered chaos double down—through war, vaccines, and social control—the threat of a manufactured conflict looms, another spark in the global strategy of depopulation and domination.

“Macroleon,” the Little Napoleon of our era, will be remembered not for statesmanship but as the WEF’s puppet-in-chief—an eager agent of a Malthusian agenda that has already scorched Europe. Not content with fuelling endless conflict by backing the high-heeled, powder-nosed performer in Kiev, he now turns his ambitions eastward. Leveraging his fraternal bond with ASEAN’s own WEF proxy, Hun Sen, he fans the flames of yet another geopolitical conflagration—this time aimed at destabilizing the Global South in the name of order, control, and globalist conquest.

As a clear signal of allegiance to the World Economic Forum and the broader Western agenda—aligned against the mercantilist bloc led by Russia—Cambodia has joined the likes of the Socialist Republic of Singapore in towing the line. Mirroring Singapore’s decision to freeze Russian assets, Phnom Penh has sent humanitarian aid to the regime currently ruling Kiev, signaling its support for Ukraine in the ongoing "special operation." In doing so, Cambodia reinforces its pivot toward globalist interests at the expense of neutrality and strategic balance in Southeast Asia.
