"Google, Amazon, Microsoft and Meta fire over 10,000 employees each"--but the economy is booming

"Recession?  What recession, citizen?  Duh economy is *booming,* thanks to the brilliant policies of your faaabulous Democrat leaders.

"Well, maybe a few companies are...what's the term?  Oh yeah: "streamlining," "furloughing" a handful of employees.  Aren't those soothing terms?  "Streamlining."  That means a sleek object moving thru the air with less air resistance, so it uses less energy, eh?  Who wouldn't be inspired by hearing that, eh?  Cuz we need to cut our energy use, right?

"What do you mean 'How do I know that'?  Our great, wonderful Democrat leaders told us that.  Were you not paying attention?  You should pay closer attention when they speak, so you don't miss the points they want you to understand!  If you don't listen to them, how can you possibly know what's happening, right?

"Oh, you ask what companies are giving some employees "furloughs," and how many employees will be "streamlined"?  Uh...I don't know.  MSNBC and CNN said it was only a couple of minor companies, and only involved a few employees, so it doesn't sound very significant.

"Wait...what?  You say Google just announced it's firing 12,000, "due to a different economic reality"?  What's that supposed to mean?  Can't be due to a worsening economic outlook, cuz all the Media outlets keep telling us the economy is BOOMING!  So...beats me.

"And you say Microsoft is 'streamlining' HOW many employees?  10,000??  That can't possibly be true!  Wait...ya say the Washington Post says it's true?

"Well y'know once in awhile they're wrong.  After all, six months after the 2020 presidential election they admitted that the story about Hunter Biden's laptop was actually true, so...

"And you say the WaPo headline is "Microsoft layoffs suggest broader pain to come for the economy"?  Nah, that has to be a typo.  Cuz our Democrat leaders are saying everything is faaaabulous!

"And you say Meta (the official Truth decider formerly known as Fakebook) is "letting go" of more than HOW many employees?  Over 11,000??  Nah, I think that's a typo too. I think it's probably 1100.  Let's see if Mark can correct that...

"Wow, Zuck confirms 11,000.  That is SO bizarre!  None of this makes sense.

"And what's this you say about Amazon--owned by the world's richest man?  (The world's richest WAS the devil's agent Elon Musk, but 500 advertiser boycotts showed that egomaniac who's boss, eh?  Serves him right for firing 5,000 diligent, smart, unbiased employees!)  

"Ya say Amazon is 'streamlining' how many?  10,000??  Again, I think that's gotta be a typo.

"Gee, wrong again.  This is starting to look like Russian disinformation, intended to influence our next election!  Cuz with those four announcements that makes, what, 43,000 people fired, by HUGE companies that all the smart people at CNBC say are superbly run and very profitable.  Why would they do that when the economy is booming?  Cuz it IS booming, right?

"Okay, I just checked with my source in the 'intel community,' and 'they' say--and this is a direct quote--"This has all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation."  See?  Told ya.  And anyone who repeats "Russian disinformation" is Putin's agent!

"Yeah, one of the reports above was in the NY Times, one was in the WaPo, one was from Zuck himself, but all those could be faked, right?  I mean, anyone can post anything on the internet, right?  Like that silly claim that the smart folks who run the WEF want us non-elites to eat bugs or something.  Just silly conspiracy theories posted on the net.

"So if you hear anyone repeating claims that these four companies have fired 43,000 employees, pick up the phone and call the FBI at 1-800-GET TRUMP (the last letter doesn't do anything, but it makes the number easy to remember, eh?) and turn 'em in.  Cuz we don't want Americans to think this tale is true, cuz some might think...you know.

"Besides, Musk heartlessly, cruelly fired 5,000!  Fired, I say!  That's just HORRIBLE!  Now *that* you can get upset about, cuz that really happened.  Not this Russian disinformation stuff.
