RED ALERT: Layoffs ERUPT, Economy PLUNGES, Gas Nears $5 As Farmers CAN’T GROW CROPS! | Kyle Kulinski
All right, y 'all, it is getting pretty yikesy to say the least when it comes to the U .S.economy, not even the U .S.economy, the global economy at this point.
But take a look at this.In the last five days, Michigan's average diesel price has soared 90 cents per gallon to six dollars, a new record just as farmers are getting into their fields.Illinois has also set a new record, and Indiana and Ohio are poised to be next.Six dollars.$6 in Michigan for the average diesel price, okay?I don't know about you guys, but the regular gas around here, it's over $4 .25, right?
Like, we are nearing $5 a gallon for regular.Shit I've never fucking seen before.
Is what we're nearing in this moment and like I said there is no off ramp here for this illegal war against Iran And so I don't see a way in which this ends anytime soon.I think Americans are going to be permanently squeezed um and you know, desperate for any sort of positive change.I think there's a massive anti -MAGA tsunami coming in the election, and the bottom line is you gotta make it too big to rig anyway, because they're gonna try to steal it.That's kind of what they do.That's kind of their thing.
Okay, more.Breaking Brent crude oil prices surge above $119 a barrel after the UAE announces that an Iranian drone attack has hit one of their petroleum facilities.Uh -oh.So it's only getting worse.Gas prices in the U .S.
have moved up to $4 .45 per gallon, their highest level since July 2022.The 49 % spike over the last nine weeks, from $2 .98 a gallon to $4 .45 a gallon, is the biggest we've seen in the past 30 years, bro.30 years.Look at this chart, son.Look at this chart.Okay, more.
While all that's going on, the New York Times reports, Trump's vision for Garden of Heroes keeps getting bigger and higher in cost.Plans for the project include formal gardens, reflecting pools, and plazas alongside the statues of 250 notable Americans, according to documents obtained by the New York Times.So, this is what he does now.As the world falls apart around him, as his illegal war spirals out of control, as the economy falls apart, as his ice Gestapo thugs shoot Americans in the face and build concentration camps and torture people, he keeps going inward.
And so what does he do?He focuses on stuff like the Trump Kennedy Center, which he slapped his name on, which was totally fucking insane.He focuses on stuff like his Epstein Memorial Ballroom, his arc to Trump, right?And now there's a new one, Garden of Heroes.Is this what people want to see?Do people want to see Trump putting up a golden statue to himself at his golf course in Doral, Florida, at the same time that people can't afford groceries?
I don't think so.I don't think so.
So this is really not looking good.OK, but then we get this.Tech layoffs are skyrocketing.Tech companies announced 81 ,747 layoffs in the first quarter of 2026, the highest quarterly total since at least the first quarter of 2024.Layoffs have more than doubled from the previous quarter and have risen 580 percent.Since the fourth quarter of 2025, March alone saw 45 ,800 announced job cuts, the worst single month for tech layoffs in at least two years.
The tech layoffs are set to remain elevated, with Meta's recent plans to cut eight thousand employees.Furthermore, Microsoft is offering voluntary retirement to seven percent of its U .S.workforce, which could transition into layoffs if participation is low.This comes as tech giants shift spending toward A .I.
chips and data centers, trimming staff to free up capital for infrastructure.U .S.tech employment is rapidly contracting.And here's what that looks like in chart form.So, ladies and gentlemen, The AI apocalypse is looming.
The AI apocalypse is upon us.And this is like one of the early waves of people who are going to lose their jobs because of AI.And it's not even a question of whether or not AI can actually do these jobs that they're replacing these people for.
The fact of the matter is, the Epstein class is going to try to replace these jobs either way.Even if it fails, even if it doesn't work, even if AI is ill -equipped, even if it can't handle it.They believe AI can do it, and so they're going to fire these people and replace them anyway.So all the right -wing bullshit about the thing you have to fear is the immigrants.The immigrants are going to come take your jobs.That's always been horseshit.
It's never been true.Immigrants are nothing but a benefit to the economy and the country more broadly.But what is not is this AI horseshit where they're openly saying, We're going to try to take everybody's job.We're going to try to take everybody's job.And then also, we're going to take your job and then you're also going to have nowhere to go to the government for social safety net support.We're like, hey, I'm on hard times.
Can I get unemployment?Hey, make sure Medicare is there and Medicaid's there and we have these programs for people.No.They're cutting all of those things at the same time.They're bragging, we're going to steal your job.That's what we're going to do.
So you're looking at a scenario where we have gilded age level of income and wealth inequality, and they're going, let's exacerbate that.Let's make it worse.And they're begging for fucking pitchforks to come out.They're begging for guillotines to come out.
That's what they're begging for.And it's only going to get worse.All right, how about this one?Farm bankruptcies soared under Trump and fell under Biden and then rose again under Trump in 2025.Here's that in chart form.OK, way high up there under Trump, down under Biden, back up under Trump, and it's going to go up.

Get started freeColossally, y 'all, colossally.And wait, you'll see these numbers I give you in a second.You'll see exactly what I'm talking about here.All right.An aluminum crisis is roiling the auto industry.America's top selling vehicle, the Ford F -150, bears the brunt of metal supply chain woes.
Sky -high aluminum tariffs, plus a war that knocks out Middle Eastern aluminum supplies, plus pissing off one of the world's largest aluminum suppliers, and your next door neighbor, equals inarguably one of the biggest industrial owned goals in recent memory.So here we go.The shortages begin.And the shortages are only going to accelerate because we're being run by a bunch of fucking baboons.
These are some of the dumbest, most incompetent people I've ever seen.And this is one of those areas, ladies and gentlemen, let me just say,where there is zero comparison between Democrats and Republicans.Zero.I don't want to hear any fucking both sides bullshit.I don't want to hear any false equivalents bullshit.
When you look at the Democrats for all of their flaws, they are technocratic managers.That's what they are.They are technocratic managers.Now sometimes I wish they'd be more revolutionary.Guilty.Guilty as charged, right?
But, When you fall on hard times economically, it's not a coincidence that every time Republicans get in power, they crash the economy.It happens every single time.They give all the money to the rich, massive tax cuts for the rich, massive subsidies to the rich, and they crash the economy, and they crash this stock market.Then the Democrats have to come in, and they always have to clean it up.And they always do!They always find a way.
They always do.They always clean it up.They always make it, so you know, the deficit is reduced, and the stock market goes back up, and people are hiring again, and they do the stimulus packages, and they got to piece together some form of a regulatory state.They always find a way.There's no comparison when it comes to competence, when it comes to maturity, when it comes to the adults in the room.There's no comparison whatsoever.
Trump and the Republican Party more generally, they are baboons.And the Democrats go in there and they have to be the ones.And that's the thing, oftentimes Democrats can't even get to a bigger, bolder agenda.like to see, for example, like universal health care, free college, a living wage, ending the wars, a Green New Deal.They can't even get to that because they're so busy cleaning up the fucking catastrophic mess of any Republican administration.It's happened my entire fucking life.
You know, Ronald Reagan, when he left office, massive economic fucking downturn.Why?Because he believed in trickle -down bullshit.George W. Bush absolutely destroyed the economy.Just abysmal.Multiple illegal foreign wars destroyed the economy.
Obama had to come in and clean that shit up, and that's exactly what's happening here as well.They ruin everything.They destroy everything.This time, I don't even know if it's repairable, because now we're looking at the entire world is against us.It's not just us against our enemies.Now our allies are like, hey, fuck you, because you're fucking with us.
So I don't even know if this one's... you know, repairable, but here we are, and yet again, a Democrat's gonna have to come in and try to save the day.Alright, more.We are living through...of the largest artificially inflated real estate bubbles in history.Zero rates, massive stimulus, record speculation.
Now the unwind begins.Look at this, guys.U .S.home price history from 1890 to 2025.The 2026 bubble is lower than where we are now with this 2025 bubble, y 'all.
Sit on that for a second.
By the way, who has fucking money to afford a house now?This is why those charts are out there, and I think I'll show one here in just a second.I think it's in the lineup here, but now look at the number of people who, like, have a house and a mortgage by the time they're, like, 30.They're married with a mortgage.I mean, that number has fallen off a fucking cliff!So, I don't know, what do they say, the average homebuyer is, like, 40 -something now?
Might even be higher than that?Look at this.The 2025 bubble is worse than the 2006 bubble.That is insane.Pending home sales are at their lowest level ever recorded.Ever.
What do you expect happens next?
That's exactly right.Here's that in chart form.Crazy to see.Okay, more.Foreclosures hit a shocking six -year high as costs soar under Trump.This is from the Wall Street Journal.
High housing costs, especially exploding property taxes, insurance, and HOA fees, are forcing more Americans into foreclosure despite locked -in low mortgage rates.Nearly 119 ,000 U .S.properties hit with foreclosure filings in the first quarter of 2026, a 26 % surge from last year.Foreclosure auctions are at a six -year high.Bank repossessions jumped 45 % to $14 ,000.
Average annual home insurance bill is now $2 ,948.Average property tax on single -family homes rose $4 ,427.Rising HOA and condo dues and other ownership costs pushing monthly bills over the edge for struggling families.So the article says, high housing costs are pushing foreclosures to a six -year high.Six -year high.Here we go, this is what I was referring to before.

Get started freeReady?The American dream is disappearing.Estimated percentage of 30 -year -olds who are both married and homeowners.In 1950, that number was above 50%.Now, that number is below 50%.below 15%.
So record number of Americans are now leaving the U .S.for a better quality of life abroad.That's what's happening.in this country which was once viewed as great.All right, more.
U .S.IT jobs fall below 2 .8 million for the first time since 2020.Over 300 ,000 jobs lost since 2022 dropped similar to financial crisis.So now we're looking at, we're already looking at conditions similar to the financial crisis.And there's some other stuff in here that's absolutely terrifying.
In fact, this is what I was referring to.The big stock market crash following the 1973 oil crisis did not come during the embargo.But in the six months after the embargo was lifted, and this chart is from Bloomberg, it shows exactly that.So, the economy is already, you know, teetering on the brink right now as we speak.But, you ain't seen nothing yet.Oh, you ain't seen nothing yet.
We're looking at, like, the perfect storm of economic ruin.We're looking at, you know, the oil supply shock at the same time the AI bubble bursts at the same time a housing crash happens.Like, this is, like, crisis on top of crisis on top of crisis within crisis.
And who the fuck do you think is gonna save the day?You think motherfucking Scott Besant is gonna save the day?That guy doesn't know his ass from his elbow.That guy's a joke of a human being.You think fucking Marco Rubio, who's been, you know, who's been having wet dreams about massacring Cubans for a decade, you think he's gonna wake up and know how to deal with a, you know, an economic crisis that's like seven different economic crises stacked on top of each other?He has no fucking idea.
These people have no idea.None.Zero.None.Whatsoever.How about this one, man?
This should terrify you.
Sincerely.And it's crazy the media's not taking this more seriously.According to Forbes, 70 % of farmers can't afford to grow all of their crops 70 percent.Are we going to be looking at global famine like conditions because of this illegal war waged by Trump and Netanyahu against Iran?That might be exactly what we're looking at, man.They should be aware of that.
to everybody out there.And then finally, the New York Times here says, since Congress let Obamacare subsidies expire, millions are dropping coverage.Americans can't afford the higher health insurance premiums that resulted from Congress's refusal to extend federal tax credits.
So, if you're following along, the Trump regime is spending $2 billion a day on an illegal war against Iran, they are demanding a 1 .5 trillion dollar military budget.Of which, by the way, the Pentagon can't account for 63 % of the money after they get it.Okay?But at the same time they're doing that, they kicked 18 million people off Medicaid, and they're tripling your health insurance premiums.
So, they could not make it any more clear how much they do not give a single, solitary fuck about you.
These people despise you.These people hate you.These people look at you like fucking sheep, like lemon.They're bringing you like lambs to the slaughter to support their depraved, war criminal, pedophile, rapist, Epstein -class agenda.That's what it is, and now we're witnessing that right in front of our eyes.1 .5 trillion dollars for war, and we're gonna take away your healthcare, and we're gonna lower your wages, and we're gonna make it so you can't afford a fucking house, and we're gonna steal your job.
We've never seen a gang of criminals this depraved, never in my entire life did I ever think we would top the evil of the Bush regime, but you know what?
We've done it, and we've done it swimmingly.
