Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Catastrophic Jobs Report and Immediate Fallout

• Summary of the Report

  • The U.S. economy lost 23,000 jobs in July, falling well short of expectations (expected gain was 80,000–90,000).
  • Revisions for May and June show 103,000 fewer jobs than previously reported.
  • Unemployment rate: 4.1%
  • Wage growth: 3.2%, which is outpaced by annual inflation (3.5%), nullifying real gains.
  • Labor force participation at its lowest since February 2021.
  • Many sectors entering "job recession territory."

  Ben Meiselas:

  "We are at basically no job gains at all, or in many sectors, we're in job recession territory." (01:32)

• Broader Economic Picture

  • Inflation is crushing any wage growth.
  • Americans are tapping into savings and facing bankruptcy.

2. Media Spin: "Goldilocks" Economy

• Fox News and Right-Wing Media Coverage

  • Right-wing outlets like Fox present the dismal report as positive, claiming it might benefit corporations and prevent Fed rate hikes.
  • Maria Bartiromo and Louis Navellier refer to the situation as a "Goldilocks macro story" meaning "just right."

  Maria Bartiromo:

  "23,000 jobs lost in the month of July. Louis, you wanted a weak report, you got it. Was this too weak?" (03:41)
  Louis Navellier:
  "No, not at all… This is great news. That's why the market's up." (03:53)

  Ben Meiselas (sarcastically, on the media reaction):

  "They're calling it Goldilocks, meaning just right. These people are really sickos… they hate you." (04:19)

• Comparison with Canadian Economy

  • Canada added 75,000 new jobs in July, with the lowest unemployment rate in two years, showing more effective economic management.

3. Trump Regime Deflection & False Narratives

• Kevin Hassett’s Spin

  • Trump's economic advisor blames job losses on end of government work, a reduction in undocumented workers, and the World Cup's conclusion.
  • Claims the U.S. actually added 100,000 jobs, despite data showing otherwise.

  Kevin Hassett:

  "The strength is what we've seen before. Construction workers, manufacturing workers and so on. The weakness in this number were really just two things. Government workers and a sort of rebound from all the employment we got from the World Cup because the World Cup was ending." (07:55)

• Ben Meiselas:

  "He just tries to act like, well, actually we had 100,000 jobs we gained…You expect us to believe this crap?" (07:52)

• Global Perception & Security Alliances

  • Saudi Arabia forms a new military alliance with Turkey and Pakistan, reflecting lost confidence in U.S. guarantees.
  • U.S. currency interventions reportedly strain relations with the European Central Bank.

  Ben Meiselas:

  "People view the US as so utterly weak and unreliable." (09:46)

5. Data Centers, Personal Enrichment, and Corporate Favoritism

• Trump’s Push for Data Centers

  • Trump advocates for building data centers everywhere, touting them as "liquid gold" and a fix for local economies.
  • Direct conflict of interest: Trump is personally invested in companies tied to data center development.

  Donald Trump:

  "If I were a governor, I would want data centers so badly. I'll cut taxes…this is a tremendous source of income." (11:12)
  "Data centers could be bigger than oil." (12:21)

• Deflecting Questions on Personal Stock Trades

  • Trump claims ignorance of his own investments, saying, "my little kids" run his businesses and that they're "good kids."

  Donald Trump:

  "I let my kids run it. But… they're not involved in government. I don't talk to them about government. I don't talk to them about much other than to say, I love you kids. You know, they're good kids." (13:31)

6. Mining CEOs and Corporate Priorities

• Mining CEO Meeting at the White House
  • Trump hosts mining industry executives while the jobs report signals a recession for average Americans.
  • Ben notes that right-wing media covers this story more than left-leaning outlets.

7. More Spin on Iran and Global Security

  Ben Meiselas:

  "We don't even need the Strait of Hormuz anymore. It's just a body of water." (17:34)

• Economic Pressure on Iran

  • U.S. claims to have Iran "by the throat" with sanctions causing hyperinflation and hardship.
  • Promises of imminent ceasefire and drop in energy prices.

  Kevin Hassett:

  "On the economic side, we have them by the throat and they've got 150, 180% food, inflation, not able to pay the troops." (19:38)

• Shifting Global Power

  • U.S. perceived as weakened, with adversaries like Russia and North Korea emboldened.
  • U.S. media neglects to cover aggressive arms deals between North Korea and Russia.

Notable Quotes & Moments

• Ben Meiselas (regarding the jobs report):

  "It's why they're tapping into their savings and why you also see so many people on the brink of bankruptcy." (01:17)

Transcript

[Ben Meisellis]

Donald Trump is having a catastrophic Friday. We just got one of the worst jobs reports in recent history, although all of the jobs reports under the Trump regime have been pretty bad. So Donald Trump right now is doing social media post after social media post saying, I won the war. A must read. I'm the winner. Iran lost. I'll get to that in a moment. But let's look at this horrible jobs report. The US economy lost 23,000 jobs in July, way below the expectations of around 80,000 to 90,000 jobs were expected to be gained in the month of July. Also major revisions in May and June. May and June reports were revised down by a combined 103,000 jobs. So 103,000 less than what was previously reported. The unemployment rate right now is 4.1%. Wage growth right now is 3.2% percent with annualized inflation 3.5% year over year. And the only reason why it's 3.5% is because the memorandum of understanding temporarily brought it down from the fours. But I think that's going to go back up very soon as well to around 4%, 4.1% year over year inflation, which means that the wage growth is not growth at all. It's being absolutely crushed by inflation. So people don't have any money to spend. It's why they're tapping into their savings and why you also see so many people on the brink of bankruptcy. Here in the United States, we have the lowest labor force participation rate since February 2021. And if you just look at the grim picture over the past three months, six months, 12 months, and the average job gains over since Trump's took office, I mean, we are at basically no job gains at all, or in many cases, and in many sectors, we're in job recession territory. I mean, you can just see all of the negative printouts right here, all the red. You don't wanna be below that horizontal line right there when it comes to job creation. So with this horrible jobs, I mean, horrible jobs report, what are they saying on state regime? How is Fox trying to spin this? It's ridiculous. Fox is saying this is great. This means that corporations will be able to make more money because they're getting rid of, they're shedding jobs. It helps their bottom line. And it may at least temporarily stop the Federal Reserve from raising interest rates because you may need to lower interest rates or keep interest rates the same in order to try to spur job creation. Although companies are the better lending ability to actually bring on more jobs, they're actually using it to build out data centers and to build out tech that replaces workers like AI. But here's what they're saying on Maria Bartiroma show this morning. It's really offensive and disgusting and this is what people just completely hate about this Trump regime and these oligarch domination of the United States. Let's play this clip again.

[Maria Bartiromo]

A disappointing jobs report. Dow futures way up, doubling where they were before. I'm going to continue to dig through to tell you where the jobs are and are not.

[Donald Trump]

Maria.

[Maria Bartiromo]

All right, thank you, Lauren. 23,000 jobs lost in the month of July. Louis, you wanted a weak report, you got it. Was this too weak?

[Donald Trump]

No, not at all.

[Louis Navellier]

You know, when Palantir announced their earnings, they basically had record earnings by decreasing their sales force. So there's this AI productivity boom underway and it's obvious what's happening. But no, this is great news. That's why the market's up. And now the Fed has an unemployment mandate and this is great news. And obviously a lot of people disappeared from the workforce of the unemployment rate.

[Ben Meisellis]

More from state regime media here as these numbers were being revealed. Maria Bartiroma and her co hosts on this show refer to what's taking place as the Goldilocks story. So with this horrible jobs report, right, they're calling it Goldilocks, meaning just right. It's perfect. This is exactly what we wanted, folks. These people are really sickos. They're really vile, they're really evil. I'm not trying. This isn't like a debate. No, these are evil humans who hate us and they hate you. Here, watch this for, watch this for yourself. It's crazy. Here, play this clip.

[Maria Bartiromo]

Yep. And we also have revisions actually for June and other revisions. Lauren, did you have those numbers Revisions for June? Maria. Down by 37,000. May down by 66. Combined, 103,000 fewer jobs created in the months of May and June. Maria. Yeah, and that is all about the market reaction today, is all about what this means for the Federal Reserve. Louis Navilleur, how do you want to allocate capital in this environment where once again, we're talking about Goldilocks? A Goldilocks Mac macro story.

[Louis Navellier]

Yeah, you know, the last I looked, facts that was forecasting 47.4% annual earnings growth for the S and P this year. But that was before Palantir's blowout results. So we might, might hit 50% earnings growth on the S and P right now. That's unbelievable. And you just can't ignore all these good earnings.

[Ben Meisellis]

In contrast, look at what's going on in Canada. Canada added 75,000 new jobs in July and its unemployment rate is the lowest in two years. And the Canadian stock market is doing good, too. You could do both at the same time, growing at a significantly higher percentage than here in the United States. As Donald Trump says, oh, the Canadians are nasty. They're nasty. 51st state Canada is being led by, by someone who's a former central banker, lead central banker in Canada and in England. And he is running the country efficiently. And that's not to say there aren't issues. That's not to say it isn't hard. That's not to say the tariffs don't hurt everybody, including Canada. But he's doing his best and he's being transparent with the people and he's behaving like a grownup. How about that? Here you have Kevin Hassett not behaving like a grownup. He's Trump's national economic advis. And he this guy's like the biggest liar. You've seen this scumbag before. I show you, you know, a lot of videos with him. So he comes out after all these horrible reports and he just tries to act like, well, actually we had 100,000 jobs we gained. The only reasons you see these loss, he says, is government jobs were lost. Illegal immigrants. We cut down on illegal immigrants, he said. And we've lost hospitality jobs because the World cup is over now. Really? That's you. You expect us to believe this crap? Here, play this clip. Jobs number is out for July. Employers are cutting 23,000 jobs last night. That's well below the number we were

[Kevin Hassett]

expecting to add about 80,000.

[Ben Meisellis]

Unemployment rate did drop lower 4.1%. Let's get a take on that now from the White House.

[Kevin Hassett]

Kevin Hassett, National Economic Council director Sir,

[Ben Meisellis]

good day to you and thank you

[Kevin Hassett]

for coming back here. Great to be here.

[Ben Meisellis]

Just give me, how do you read it? Strength, weakness, go.

[Kevin Hassett]

Yeah. So the strength is what we've seen before. Construction workers, manufacturing workers and so on. The weakness in this number were really just two things. Government workers and a sort of rebound from all the employment we got from the World cup because the World cup was ending. It's a few throw out the World cup of the government workers. We actually had a number that was about plus a hundred thousand, which is

[Ben Meisellis]

about what we, as I noted at the outset, more posts from Donald Trump 12 hours ago. Two hours ago. He's posting this repeatedly. A must read. Donald Trump won the war in Iran. So that's where we're at do you realize how embarrassing this is for our country? I mean, think about what Iran thinks when they see Donald Trump post things like that Trump won the Iran war. What do you think China thinks? What do you think Putin thinks? What do you think Kim Jong Un thinks? What do you think Xi Jinping of China thinks? I'll tell you what MBS in Saudi Arabia thinks. Saudi Arabia just entered into a military alliance with Turkey. They already had one with Pakistan. And they announced any strike on Saudi Arabia is a strike on Turkey and Pakistan in order to try to deter the Houthis because the Saudis believe they were protected by the US Security umbrella, which doesn't exist anymore. So now they need Turkey's help and Pakistan's help in order to try to stave off a Houthi attack within Saudi Arabia. People view the US as so utterly weak and unreliable. I mean, what do you even think the European Central bank thinks when Treasury Secretary Bessen unloaded all of these euros in order to prop up the Japanese yen without even telling the European bank? But just think, the US Screwed over the European Central bank, sold all of these euros to fund billions of dollars to prop up the Japanese yen to prevent the Japanese from selling American treasuries so that the yen doesn't fully collapse. It's like the craziest Ponzi scheme and everybody sees it. And our corporate news is like, oh, it's Goldilocks. It's just right. It's Goldilocks. Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of Defense, who couldn't even run a small veterans nonprofit group without mismanaging it. And now he's in charge of the Defense Department and he calls it the Department of War. He posts Trump won the Iran war. It's so damn pathetic. It's so damn pathetic. Trump gave an interview with Punchbowl. That's a news entity that covers Capitol Hill. And Donald Trump's main point on this Punchbowl interview, Data centers in everybody's backyard that we need to put a data center right in your backyard, right in your community. It's liquid gold if you want to be rich. Trump says, listen to him. You better have a data center. It means lower taxes for you. It means better quality of life. You need a data center in your backyard as Donald Trump is invested in all of these data center and data center adjacent companies. He's such a sick, vile piece of. You know what I'm going to say? Trash. Play this clip.

[Donald Trump]

This is going so. If I were a governor, I would want data center so badly. I'll cut taxes. I mean, taxes are going to go way down because this is a tremendous source of income.

[Ben Meisellis]

Two more quick questions.

[Donald Trump]

We can't let China beat us at this. You know, a lot of people think that the, the campaign that's being put on is being paid for by China. A lot of people. And you we have President Xi coming here in a couple of weeks and we're going to have a great time, but I'm going to talk to him about it. But I don't blame them. You know, we do things and they do things, but a lot of people think that because they are losing to us in AI.

[Ben Meisellis]

One of more on Donald Trump saying data centers need to be put everywhere. Let's play this clip.

[Donald Trump]

I saw Texas the other day, sort of is against data centers. Think it's a mistake. And I'm not taking positions or I just think it's a mistake because there are other communities that want it. When a community wants it, it means a lot of money is going to come into that community.

[Ben Meisellis]

Unsightly, potentially.

[Donald Trump]

Well, I don't think they're unsightly. I mean, I'm looking at some of these data centers, the most incredible buildings I've ever seen. They go for two and a half, three miles. They're three miles by three miles.

[Ben Meisellis]

They're necessary for the technology.

[Donald Trump]

They are tremendously important for the economics. I mean, it's, this is for Texas. To say no to data centers is a mistake in the sense that it could be bigger than oil. I mean, data centers could be bigger than oil. You have the Texas oil and there are a lot of communities that want to.

[Ben Meisellis]

And then Trump was asked a question about all of his stock trades, enriching himself to billions of dollars, giving himself tax immunity. And Trump's like, I don't know any of that. My, my little, my little boys handled that. My little kids. Now how he treats Eric and Don Jr. Like there's some like little children running around. These are grown adults who are clearly involved, in my opinion, in these various machinations and schemes with Donald Trump. They're good kids. They're good kids. If Donald Trump says they're good kids, we know that these are the worst, most vile, sick things and they carry the sickest, most disgusting last name imaginable that will go down in history to be the most despicable, stained word imaginable. Trump here, play this clip.

[Donald Trump]

But they want to do a bill and in the bill they want me to be different than everybody else.

[Ben Meisellis]

So you're against that?

[Donald Trump]

It would sound like, well, I don't mind putting it in a blind trust. I don't run my stuff anyway. I let my kids run it. But. And I never even talked. I never talked to them about things. If they want to go into it, you know, they're not involved in government. I don't talk to them about government. I don't talk to them about much other than to say, I love you kids. You know, they're good kids. But we don't want to see China take over crypto. I don't want to see China win with AI.

[Ben Meisellis]

Now, I found this notable as well. This didn't get a lot of attention, that Trump will be hosting mining CEOs as the regime seeks minerals for defense supply chains. They're doing a mining CEO meeting right now. That's what they're doing. Mining CEOs while the American people are in a jobs recession, the mining CEOs are coming to town and the regime media says that we're in a Goldilocks economy and things could not be any better right now. Let me show you this clip of Trump before I get into this article where he says the economy, he should get a 150% mark that the economy is not just 100%, it's 150%.

[Donald Trump]

Good.

[Ben Meisellis]

Here, let me just play this and then I'll go into the mining CEOs here. Play this clip.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah. And it's because of me. Biden was against all this. I don't think Biden had any idea what it was, what it was. But our country right now is doing better than it's ever done. You know, when I see polls on the economy, I should have, I should have 150%, not 100%, because we have the greatest. This is the golden age of America. What's being built now in this country has never, ever been built. And we're really, we are literally in the golden age of America.

[Ben Meisellis]

And, you know, it's notable, though, when I looked at this mining CEO article in Ground News, and it's being mostly covered on the right. And by the way, this is one of the reasons that I use Ground News, and it's a research tool that I use every morning when I prepare these videos. And they're probably the best tool I use to help me stay objective in my reporting. You see, Ground News is an app and a website that pulls in thousands of articles from around the world. It organizes them by story to show you how the left, center and right are framing the story differently. It shows you a few if corporate Conglomerates are behind the story. If independent media is behind the story, it lets you compare reporting on the same issue in one place from different sources so you can draw your own conclusions. Like in the article I just shared with you. I was surprised there's no one on the left covering that. These mining CEOs are heading to the White House at the same time. Trump has just made our economy as horrible as it's been with this horrific jobs recession taking place. I think that deserve. I think that contrast deserves the right amount of attention. Ground News has this dedicated blind spot feed. It's a personal favorite of mine, which highlights stories being disproportionately covered on either side of the political aisle. Look, I believe in Ground News so much, and I use it so much. We're going to offer you 40% off the same vantage plan that I use for my research.

In that same interview with Punchbowl, Donald Trump said, Iran is begging to make a deal. They're begging to make it. But I thought you won, Donald. Haven't you been posting that? You won. Here, play this clip.

[Donald Trump]

I just like that. Get in. They'll destroy this country.

[Ben Meisellis]

You said yesterday, you spoke. You just talked about Nevada. You said yesterday gas prices. Correct me if I'm wrong, they might go up again a little bit. You said.

[Donald Trump]

No, no, that's only if I have to do another hit. Okay? So, I mean, they'll only go down or if we make a deal. They want to make a deal. They want to make a deal. Look, it's obvious they don't want to be hit. Okay? They want to make a deal. So we'll see.

[Ben Meisellis]

Because you're see, and now Treasury Secretary Besant is out there saying, you know what? We don't even need the Strait of Hormuz anymore. He says in just a few years, the Strait of Hormuz will just be another body of water. And I would say that more than 50 or 70% of the energy is now going through underground pipeline. So this is again, this is how they surrender. This is how they change the goalposts. Right? So now the Strait of Hormuz doesn't even matter. Right, Because Iran and Oman are about to make a deal where Iran controls the Strait. Nah, it's just another waterway. We don't even need it. It's irrelevant. It's irrelevant. Do you see how these con artists, these Bernie Madoff, these scammers act now? We don't even need the Strait of Hormuz. It's just though. It's just a body of water. We don't even need the Red Sea. It's just a body of water. We don't need any straits. The Strait of Gibraltar. We don't need any straits. Okay, okay. We may have needed straits in the prior administrator, but now we're beyond straits because we figured we all have a plan and don't actually look at the data which shows that jobs are being lost. Let's just say we're in a Goldilocks economy and things are just right. Watch what this vile thing says here. Play this clip. Some who've speculated the Strait will never

[Donald Trump]

go back to being the way it was before.

[Ben Meisellis]

What would you say?

[Kevin Hassett]

I would say, I would take. I think they're saying that in a doomsday sort of way. I would say it in another way. The Strait is never going back to the way it was because the Iranians have used or tried to use it as a choke point. What we are going to see over the next two years, the Strait is going to become irrelevant. It is going to become just another body of water. And I would say that more than 50 or 70% the energy that moves through the Strait now is going to go through underground pipelines.

[Ben Meisellis]

And then Bessen says his foot is on the throat of the people in Iran and they're really struggling right now and everybody's scared of us. Play this clip.

[Kevin Hassett]

We're never going to let them have a nuclear weapon. We had epic fury, which was the kinetic portion at Treasury. We did economic fury. What goes a little publicized is on the kinetic side, Air Force is wiped out. Navy's wiped out a big portion of their missiles. More importantly, their missile production. On the economic side, we have them by the throat and they've got 150, 180% food, inflation, not able to pay the troops. So I think shortly, maybe even today, tomorrow we are going to see an agreement. 30, 60 day ceasefire and strait will be open. Energy prices should come down.

[Ben Meisellis]

They're really scared of us. No wonder Saudi Arabia needs to make a deal with Turkey right now. They're really scared of us. No wonder. The Wall Street Journal just reported that US intel finds that Putin could test NATO's resolve with a limited incursion. And now it's believed that Putin is not afraid to strike NATO as he sees utter weakness in the US and that the US has depleted its interceptors and its attack. And the Himars. Yeah, you think they're scared of us, Besant? Despite international sanctions, North Korea just generated an estimated $22 billion in foreign revenue between 2022 and 2025 through arms sales and military support to Russia, as Kim Jong Un does ballistic missile, cruise missile and other tests, and brags about their nuclear arsenal on a daily basis. But you don't hear a peep from our corporate news about that. You don't hear a peep from Trump about it because they're weak. Because you'll hear about it here on the Midas Touch network. That's what's going on right now. We'll keep you posted every step of the way. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million subscribers. Also, check out WTF America? The book I wrote with my brothers.
