As the slide towards recession accelerates, one silver lining may be that a whole lot of fact-checkers are about to become unemployed.
According to Reuters, Facebook-owner Meta Platforms (which will likely be undoing its name change just as bitcoin bottoms) has cut plans to hire engineers by at least 30% this year, CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees on Thursday, as he warned them to brace for a deep economic downturn.
“If I had to bet, I’d say that this might be one of the worst downturns that we’ve seen in recent history,” Zuckerberg told workers in a weekly employee Q&A session, audio of which was heard by Reuters.
Zuck belatedly acknowledges something that most of us at SDA have known for years:
“Realistically, there are probably a bunch of people at the company who shouldn’t be here,” Zuckerberg said, …. I think some of you might decide that this place isn’t for you, and that self-selection is OK with me.“
And a preview of coming attractions: Here is a map of the Netherland’s nitrogen reduction strategy or as it works in reality, this is Joe Netherlands starves to death. This is why the farmers are protesting. The gov’t is completely unhinged.

HAPPY DOMINION DAY!

Though Canada is suffering through a tumultuous time these days with an aspiring dictator at the helm, we can all envision much better times in the past and hopefully a brighter future. To that end, we present One Week, a 2008 movie filmed and actually set in Canada.
Also, here’s an NFB film focused on the turbulent summer of 1967.
Please do share how you and your loved ones plan to spend Canada Day.
As a special bonus, here a song from Greg Arcade called The Ballad of James Topp:
James, THANK YOU and your entire crew for this incredible march that you’ve done from Vancouver to Ottawa. It’s historical and hopefully will eventually help in restoring Canada to the once free country it was, but is no longer.
Where Ottawa’s finest engaged in mostly peaceful policing earlier today.

Looks like the George Floyd treatment is now standard procedure.
Seen in western North Carolina earlier this month. Thought it might be a good candidate for a jigsaw puzzle.
You are a witness to the “Great Reset” unfolding in real time. They don’t want you to drive, and they don’t want you to fly.
Right now at Pearson it’s all delayed flights leaving & arriving regardless of airline.
Does Minister @OmarAlghabra want to claim once again that the @JustinTrudeau gov’t has done all they can and delays aren’t due to their policies? Read & RT #cdnpolihttps://t.co/OVVVcctrVr… pic.twitter.com/KNLxlLj9Rd— Brian Lilley (@brianlilley) June 30, 2022

April 29, 2020: The ArriveCAN mobile app was launched by Trudeau’s government.
November 21, 2020: The ArriveCAN app becomes mandatory.
June 29, 2022: The RCMP admits to remotely turning on phone cameras & microphones of criminal suspects.
In a normal democracy, this might make sense to most people but in Trudeau’s dictatorship, also known as Canuckistan, anyone who disagrees with any views of Dear Leader can immediately be deemed as a hater, bigot, white supremacist, transphobe, and/or criminal.
Pause for a moment, fellow Canadians, to realize that your government is forcing you to install a piece of software on your phone in order to enter or leave your country and the elite police force of that same government has openly admitted to surreptitiously using phones as spying devices on Canadians, their speech, and their activities.
The dystopian future has arrived.

The Supreme Court is on a roll.
The Post Millennial- Supreme Court rules against EPA’s authority to limit emissions by remaking energy sector
The Supreme Court on Thursday issued a ruling in the case of West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency. The 6-3 ruling sides with West Virginia, which sought to limit the Clean Air Act.
“Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible ‘solution to the crisis of the day,'” Roberts writes, citing New York v. United States. “But it is not plausible that Congress gave EPA the authority to adopt on its own such a regulatory scheme in Section 111(d). A decision of such magnitude and consequence rests with Congress itself, or an agency acting pursuant to a clear delegation from that representative body.”
