YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger criticize Kevin Hassett, director of the National Economic Council, for claiming that rising credit card spending proves the economy is strong and that American consumers are "firing on all cylinders," while ignoring that credit card delinquency rates have hit their highest levels since 2011 and people are maxing out their cards because inflation has made necessities unaffordable. The two note that Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent previously revealed his disconnect by referring to "mom and pop" investors who bought eight or nine houses to retire, showing how out of touch the administration is with working Americans struggling to afford a single home.

Jimmy argues that the administration is using inflation and debt to force the population into digital currency, and that social media platforms like Facebook—originally created by DARPA and the deep state, not genuine entrepreneurs—have trained people to self-report their every move. He reminds viewers that Bill Maher had to be told by Roseanne Barr what MK Ultra and the World Economic Forum were because establishment media refuses to cover such topics, and that Kevin Hassett should be "stripped of his economic credentials" for his absurd take.
