The Recent CPI Report and the media's twisting of it.

Now for the recent report on the Consumer Price Index.  And of course, the way in which the mainstream media has been reporting on anything about the Trump Administration ... except for a few recent statistic reports on CNN ... is that it's now the End of the World and we're all gonna die very soon.  

In light of this, according to the mainstream media and certain YouTube video makers, you should be running outside with your hands in the air, screaming in panic.  But, you are not doing so, meaning that there is no panic, no crisis, and no economic End of the World.  Instead, we need to have the End of MSNBC and similar entities who will politely not be named here.  In as much :::

                 

The Doomsayers' Passcode number for mid-July 2025 was . . . 0.4%.

At least PBS didn't hyper-exaggerate a price-related statistic, turning it into a sure sign of the "End of the World as We Know It."  PBS simply omitted the facts that will give you a more descriptive understanding of today's state of pricing, as well as giving you a relief from stress.  

Now CBS, on the other hand, used one June 2025 stat and made it sound as if no one is going to have any clothes to wear next year without remortgaging a home or two.  Of course, also in June was the media claiming that Donald Trump finally went out and started WWIII.  No, he actually prevented WWIII from starting in the Middle East.  If WWIII is going to start this year, it will start in Eastern Europe.

Liars hide from statistics and from those whom they defame

To start, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that, in June of 2025, the CPI-U ... also known as the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers ... rose 0.3%.  This is the Inflation Rate.

At this point, keep in mind that, throughout June 2025, the rate of Real Wage Growth grew by 0.3%.  This is a good thing that CBS and others should be reporting.  That Wage Rate growth of 0.3% compensates for the June inflation rate rise of  0.3%.

Concerning the "year-over-year" inflation rate ... (of the inflation rate for the past 12 consecutive months) ... it sat at 2.7% at the end of June 2025.  Now, June 2024 to January 20th, 2025 were Biden's months.  February 2025 to the end of June 2025 were Trump's months.  So, you can neither condemn nor praise Trump for the June 2025 year-over-year inflation rate. 

CBS doesn't quit its pea and shell games

Now, CBS had a very deceptive report which included the correct June 2025 inflation rate for "Apparel."  It was a 0.4% rise for the average price of clothing.  It sounded bad the way in which it was reported.  

HOWEVER, in February of 2025, the average cost of "apparel" rose by 0.6%.  Then, in March of 2025, the average cost of apparel rose an additional 0.4%.  So, why didn't CBS reporters run out into the streets, screaming that the great economic calamity was now upon us, in February & March?  

The 2025 "apparel price" stats are not doom and gloom.  For example, in May of 2025 the average cost of clothing DECREASED by 0.4%.  In April of 2025, it DECREASED by 0.2%.  And in February of 2025, the average price for clothing in America DECREASED by 1.4%.  Therefore, in the year-over-year inflation rate, the price of clothing between June 2024 and June 2025 DECREASED by 0.5%.  

No End of the World here, folks.  CBS has to go back to the proverbial drawing board and find another way to deceive you into thinking that Donald Trump is so unhinged that he is ushering in the End of the World.  But, in all honesty, what the World could use is . . . the End of CBS ... and CNN ... and MSNB ... as well as ABC.

Being that the Mainstream Media is trying to make the June inflation rate look like it's ushering-in the End of the World, let's review the year-over-year inflation rates under Biden.

We can start with June 2024.  It was 3.0%.  That was higher than Donald's y-o-y rate of this past June.  In June of 2023, the y-o-y inflation rate for Biden was also 3.0%, and that isn't bad, at all.  HOWEVER, in June of 2022, the y-o-y inflation rate reached 9.1%.  It was the highest inflation rate, since 1981.

Also under Biden ... beginning with his second year in office ... the y-o-y inflation rate ranged from 2.4% to 3.0% to 3.5% to 4.2% to 4.9% to 7.5% to 7.9% to 8.3% to 8.5% to 8.6% to 9.1% ... and other percentage numbers in between.

In contrast, concerning Donald Trump's first term of 48 months ... from January 2017 to December 2020 ... the y-o-y inflation rate ranged from 0.1% to 0.3% to 0.6% to 1.5% to 1.8% to 2.0% to 2.2% to 2.6% and to 2.9% ... and other percentage numbers in between. 

Moreover, the years of prolonged double-digit inflation in America included 1981, 1980, 1979 ... 1975, 1974 ... 1947, 1942, 1932 ... 1920, 1919, 1918, and 1917.  The worst year was 1920.  

Plus, the lowest inflation years ... which included a few years of Deflation ... were: 1914, 1915 ... 1921, 1922 ... 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1933 ... 1936, 1939, 1940 ... 1955, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964 ... 1980, 1981 ...  1998, 2002, 2009 ... 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2019, as well as 2020.  Here, look for yourself:

https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/historical-inflation-rates/

Also in 2025, the y-o-y inflation rate was 2.8% (in February.)  Now, that was higher than the June 2025 report.  So, why report the June rate as if the end is near?  Well, you need much larger inflation to usher-in the End of the World.  Four times higher, for starters.

Perhaps someone out there can begin to realize that today's media starts with its desired conclusion and then tries to form stats around the desired conclusion which happens to amount to deliberate deception.  

War causes price hikes, too.  

Heightened degrees of warfare in any one month causes price increases, too.  Well, there was more than one war transpiring in June of 2025 which directly affected the United States.  However, the media only put the spotlight on tariffs as the guaranteed cause of the oncoming rise in the CPI-U and the eventual End of the World.

Well, if you want to understand tariff economics, study McKinley's first term which began in March of 1897.  In fact, look-up the 1897 Dingley Act ... unless you're as lazy as Kamala Harris has been alleged to have always been.

The June 2024 to June 2025 Natural Gas Price Hike ... after Biden's auto-pen banned export permits for Liquid Natural Gas, starting on January 23, 2024.

You need to look at the whole picture, and NOT only at what CBS wants to show you.  The highest price hike in the past year was "Utility (piped) Gas Service."  It rose 14.2% between June of 2024 and June of 2025.  

However, as far as went June 2025 under Donald Trump, Utility Gas Service only rose 0.5% for that one month.  Moreover, in May of 2025, Utility Gas Service DECREASED by 1.0%.  Thus, it doesn't sound all that end-of-the-worldish.  

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics has the stats on the June 2025 CPI and other months ... in detail.  Those stats are worth reviewing.  In that way, CBS won't be able to scare you.  CBS won't be able to con you.

Statistical Sources

Now remember, I once conveyed to whomever reads the Blue Marble Album the legitimate sources for true economic data.  One source that I mentioned was "FRED," in St. Louis.  That is the Federal Reserve Economic Data Center which is under the auspices of the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank.  Another source mentioned by yours truly was the BEA ... the Bureau of Economics Analysis.  

Well, another good source is the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.  In fact, you can go there now, simply by clicking on the link below ... at the end of this post.   The exact page to where the link is directed is the one which explains the June 2025 Consumer Price Index statistics.  

Some Prices Actually Did Go Down

When it comes to Energy & Fuel, the prices involving those types of products & services definitely have decreased.  The price of New Vehicles, as well as Used Cars & Trucks, has definitely decreased.  With apparel, prices have been a minor overall decrease on a monthly see-saw basis.  But, Biden-Era prices are mostly still with us, and that level of price was and is unacceptable.  Everything about the Biden Administration was unacceptable.

You are not going to learn what you need to know from MSNBC or CNN or ABC or CBS or even PBS.  This is because they won't teach it.  They do not want to report the news.  They only want to manipulate your mind and make you a puppet who dances whichever way their commentators tell you to dance ... proverbially speaking, of course.

We live in the push-button era.  If you push the right button, information unfolds itself before you and scrolls-out to you ... on a screen, of course.  Prevent yourself from being deceived by the modern version of Big Brother.  The version happens to be the mainstream media.  Stay away from the indoctrinators ... from the brainwashers.  Assert your liberty ... your right to know the right things.

Walmart heiress ((richer than was Marie Antoinette)) achieves the height of hypocrisy.

The Anti-Trump no-king protests were funded ... bankrolled ... in part, by a 76 year old foreign sweatshop slave labor profiteer's widow who holds billions of dollars which otherwise should have been used to pay the underpaid sweatshop workers their rightful backpay.  She is one of the Walmart heiresses, and the amount she holds is $19.3 billion, according to Forbes.  

At least 1/2 to 3/4 to 5/6 to 7/8 of what she holds isn't rightfully hers, due to the slave wage economy from which Arkansas Walmart has been profiting, since the presidency of Arkansas native, Bill Clinton.  This translates into her having committed the act of Receiving Stolen Property.  And let us remember that Arkansas WAS a slave state ... and due to Walmart ... it still is.  

Concerning this, keep in mind that the SIXTH COUNT of the historic Nuremberg Trials was none other than ... Slave Labor.  Well, this Trump-hater inherited a fortune amassed through the monstrous undertaking of foreign slave labor profiteering.  She amassed a fortune through crimes against humanity.  She received the wages due to severely underpaid workers in China, Bangladesh, India, Vietnam, etc.  Yet, she seeks to make Donald Trump ... the receiver of FOUR Nobel Peace Prize nominations ... appear to be the monster.

Also keep in mind that it was declared in United States federal circuit court law that "International Law IS a part of the United States Constitution."  Therefore, the sum total of the Nuremberg Trials is a caselaw authority applicable to modern courts, even to American federal courts.  

Reparations today are due to Underpaid Sweatshop Workers who filled Walmart's shelves.

Concerning justice, there is the matter of appropriating backpay to the underpaid Chinese, Vietnamese, Indian, and Bangladeshi workers.  There is also the matter of compensating the 5 million American workers who each lost a livable wage job, when American corporations took their operations to Slave Labor China and other lawless dictatorships, in order to proliferate profitable crimes against humanity. 

In retrospect, there was a recent time in America ... such as in the late 1970s ... when a seamstress in Fort Smith Arkansas made exactly $14 an hour.  Then, an Arkansas corporation now known as the Beast of Bentonville made that type of job obsolete with the help of a Joe Biden who saw to the fast-tracking of Communist China into favored nation status.  And of course, the Walmart heiress who orchestrated more defamation against Donald Trump was heartless enough to have kept her mouth shut in the midst of all that human suffering & privation amongst workers.  

Concerning the Walmart heiresses, it was predictable that at least one of them would employ defamatory "false-light" propaganda against anti-sweatshop Donald Trump.  In the propaganda, Trump was regarded as the type of person whom a modern robber baroness despises the most.  That type of person is a king ... any king ... even a queen.

Oligarchs can't stand kings.  Robber Barons & Robber Baronesses despise even the concept of king.  They prefer to prop-up a "mindless puppet ruler" or "Party Chairman" or "a mere figurehead" instead.  They want to prop-up someone who will leave them alone and let them amass wealth for themselves.  Thus, Joe Biden was the ideal brain-dead puppet, and Kamala Harris was the ideal airheaded puppet.

77.3 MILLION  registered Americans voted for Trump in 2024

Christy Walton tries to make Trump look like a marauder who invaded the White House with a small army of hicks who love NASCAR races, midnight cross burning, swastika tattoos, and hay bailing contests.  She left out the fact that 77.3 million Americans put Donald Trump in the White House with their votes.  

More specifically, the votes from 31 specific states put Donald Trump in the White House, via an Electoral College majority of 312 to 226 votes.  Since January 2025, Donald Trump has been doing what 77 million people elected him to do.  Trump is fulfilling a voters' mandate.  Millions of voters placed the order, and Trump is filling the order placed.

Kamala failed to flip any county anywhere.  That hadn't happened in the past 92 years.

The Walton heiress also left out the fact that Donald Trump Red-Shifted the nation.  This means that Donald flipped 88 formerly Democrat Blue counties into Republican Red, and that he additionally won the majority vote in 197 "pivot counties."  

Moreover, of the 88 counties that Donald flipped to Red, 54 of them voted for both Hillary in 2016 and Biden in 2020.  In 2024, they then voted for Donald Trump.

  

Meanwhile, for the first time in 92 years, a major party nominee failed to flip a single county, in a presidential election.  The last time this happened, FDR was enabled to enter the White House on March 4th, 1933.  In fact, the same 2024 Democrat Party nominee only won nine Pivot Counties, while Republican Donald Trump went on to win 197 of them.  And of course, that candidate who was unable to flip any county anywhere was Kamala Harris.  

So pathetic & flawed was the Harris Campaign that Donald Trump flipped to Republican Red TEN California counties that were Democrat Party Blue in the prior presidential election.  This is an embarrassment for a Democrat Party nominee who was once the San Fran DA, followed by her being the California AG, and then followed by her being an United States senator from California.  Even Californians shunned Kamala Harris in 2024.

Sweatshop Slavery and the Law

Now, foreign sweatshop labor profiteering is modernized slavery.  It's a crime against humanity, as well.  It was prosecuted at Nuremberg.  So, a Walmart heiress attacked Donald Trump, in the attempt to make him look like the monster that slavery profiteers are.  Slavery is an ultimate form of dictatorship.  How would you like to be a slave anywhere on this Planet?

Furthermore, sweatshop slave labor is an element of the Biblical teaching on  "Defraudment of Laborers of their Wages" which happens to be "one of the four sins which cry to Heaven for vengeance."  This means that Christy Walton literally belongs in Hell.  Incidentally, Hell never ends, because evil people never stop loving evil.  

Foreign Sweatshop Labor Profiteering Resulted in a Massive Trade Balance Deficit

When it comes to foreign sweatshop slave labor profiteering, Donald Trump is an abolitionist, due to the tremendous Trade Balance Deficit that ensued upon America, while corporations were sending all of their manufacturing infrastructure across the ocean to nations who brutalized workers and their work conditions.  

The Gross Dereliction of Duty concerning the Trade Balance Deficit goes back to Bill Clinton, and this was ironic for a president whose final two years resulted in a federal budget surplus.  The Dereliction of Duty continued in strength under Bush & Cheney, and it kept going non-stop under a Barack Obama who apparently couldn't care any less than he did toward underpaid workers.

Attacking the anti-sweatshop economic policy of Donald Trump is equal to attacking and defaming the tragic Abraham Lincoln of the 1860s.  Both presidents had someone point a gun at their heads and pull the trigger.

All in all, the Great Hypocrisy of multi-billionaire Christy Walton is that she condemns the concept of kings, yet she is richer than was Marie Antoinette.  Plus, she was not the only billionaire oligarch to support the Anti-Trump events.  However, those billionaires who damn Donald Trump for being an oligarch are also oligarchs.  Thus, they are hypocrites.  They are simply damning Donald Trump, because they are not in power and he is.  They are furiously resentful.

Being that these greed-stricken people have condemned even the concept of "king," it's time for me and others of Good Will to advocate ... support ... defend at least the concept of monarchy.  Whatever the Walmart people believe, it's your moral duty to not believe.  Whatever the Walmart people advocate, it's your duty to oppose.  Likewise, whatever the Walmart people condemn, it's your duty to not condemn.

The proper monarchy would be a Constitutional Monarchy, based on a Declaration of the Rights of Humans that no manipulative congress and no manipulative parliament can take away from the People or even abridge in part.  This would start with the Right to Life.  

Such an advocated monarchy would include referendum voting by the People, especially on tax issues.  It would also include the classic Court of the King's (or queen's) Prerogative, as well as "arbitration" that would replace the classic "chancellor."  The word "chancellor" would be omitted, because Hitler was once a chancellor.  If you don't understand what that above-stated titles mean ... such as the Court of the King's Prerogative ... then go look them up, because monarchy is all over the history books.

Such a monarchy would have multiple supreme courts, based on category, such as Maritime Supreme Court, Business Law Supreme Court, The Rules of Criminal Procedure Supreme Court, Medical Supreme Court, Patent & Copyright Law Supreme Court, etc.  And needless to say, there would also be military judge advocate generals. 

If people as evil as the Walmart heirs condemn kings, then I support monarchy ... as long as the monarchy doesn't NOT act like Walmart's management and the senators who empowered Walmart.  BTW, I haven't walked into a Walmart store in over twelve years.

Propaganda that demonizes and provokes violence

Walton and other billionaires are demonizing the concept of king, in their desire to have low information people proliferate the hatred generated against Trump.  However, monarchy is the oldest form of government in human history.  Kings of varying personalities and types are all throughout history.  Some were philosophic.  Some were heroic.  Some were inspirational.  This includes queens such as Catherine of Aragon and Blanche of Castille.  This included princes, also.

It's impish and immature to make a blanket-condemnation of kings.  They were replaced by house members, parliamentary members, and senators.  That is to say, kings were replaced by career politicians, and career politicians are one of the lowest forms of human in the history of humanity.  They amass outrageously large sums of money for themselves.  Yet, they leech outrageously larger sums of money for political campaigns which could have provided charity to the poorest of the poor.

Career Politicians have been far more evil than many a king.

Monarchy is NOT intrinsically evil and Republics are NOT intrinsically good.  Likewise, quasi-democracy republics are NOT intrinsically good, as well.  After all, the vast majority of Germans of the 1930s wanted the Jews out of Germany, even to the point of mass-murdering the Jews.  Now, that was democracy.  It didn't make democracy right.  In that case, the German People were criminally misled.  In addition, the Treaty of Versailles grieved them to the point of vengeance.  They got their vengeance. 

Monarchy is not Dictatorship.  A monarchy is based on laws and jurisdiction, writs and treaties.  Moreover, a monarchy is an united government, while republics are constantly divided governments.  And of course, a treaty is a law to which the signatory nations are bound.  

Moreover, there are far more people running the government of a monarchy than the king.  Furthermore, a dictatorship involves the lawless whims & manipulations of the dictator ... or the lawless stubbornness of the dictator when a law needs changed.  Sometimes, a dictatorship comprises a group of career politicians.

Career Politicians have been known throughout modern history to be the most dishonest and manipulative of thieves, as well as the destroyers of human life.  In other words, career politicians have been far more evil than many a king.

It's not the form of government that counts, it's the people in that government who do.  Liars & thieves in the congress of a republic results in an evil government.  Honest men & women with consciences operating a monarchy operate a good government.  

Concerning the underhanded deceit of billionaire Christy Walton, the following videos on the subject-at-hand are Must-See Videos, if and only if you have a conscience.  And of course, if you don't see anything wrong with foreign slave-waged sweatshop profiteering, then there's something severely wrong with you.

S&P 500 ~ NASDAQ 100 ~ NASDAQ Composite ~ Dow-Jones US Total ~ Wilshire 5000 and Russel 3000 each surpassed their all-time record highs on the same Friday in July

Let us not forgot that:  This was written by a registered Independent who was formally taught by an economic advisor of JFK and who also scored a 100% on a national, standardized accounting exam authored by & process by Harvard U.  

As a preview:  On April 21st, 2025, the famous Dow-Jones Industrial Average stood at 38,170.41 points. Within three months' time, it gained 6,839.66 points.  That's an average gain of 2,279 points per month.   

When mid-August arrived, the Dow 30 ... the DJIA ... surpassed its all-time record high, to the tune of 45,203.52. during mid-day trading.  It then closed on that same day at 44,946.12.  Record highs did occur for multiple stock market indices in August.

Incidentally, below is the closing-bell value of the Dow-Jones 30, on July 22nd, 2025.  The other graphs in this post show the closing-bell prices of Friday July 25th, 2025 for each index.  That's the final Friday in July.  It was yet another day of multiple record highs for American stock market indices.

To start, months after Kamala predicted an economic crisis under Donald Trump, we find that ...

            ... Kamala is a first class jack ass.  Her predictions of doom were all Failed Predictions.

And remember, the year prior to Clyburn manipulating the way for Kamala to be given the 2024 Democrat Party nomination ... without her winning a single primary election delegate in two election seasons ... Kamala received the LOWEST rating for any vice president in the history of the NBC vice presidential rating poll.  It was a MINUS 17.  Such a person is NOT presidential material.

Rather than there being the greatest man-made economic crisis in the history of the modern presidency, there was a recent increase in the rate of Real Wage Growth.  Plus, the 2017 tax cuts now remain in tact with added ones included.  In fact, seniors get an additional $6,000 tax deduction to the already existing one.

We furthermore find that the stock markets are not tanking in any capacity, as Rachel Maddow very falsely claimed.  Rather, the opposite has happened.  

And speaking of tanks, people can now fill-up their gas tanks for less than $3.10 per gallon in 30 states.  In 19 of those 30 states, people can fill up their tanks for less than $3.00 per gallon ... of regular gasoline.   

In fact, as of closing time, on Friday, July 25, 2025 a barrel of West Texas Intermediate Crude was $65.06.  Under Biden & HARRIS, it was as high as $120.67 ... as of June 6th, 2022.  

On the January day in 2025 when DJ Trump resumed the presidency, a barrel of WTI was $74.66 at closing time.  WTI Crude then made its way to $57.13 on May 5th, 2025.  That was on 5/5/25.  Next came increased warfare in the Middle East, as well as continued warfare in the second largest nation in Europe, namely the Ukraine.  Crude prices then rose.

Continuing with the American econo-markers of 2025

There are no longer bans on Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) export permits as there were under Biden & HARRIS, in 2024.  The banning was the expected response of the Al Gore followers.  This is because the US was successfully breaking LNG export records.  So, the Al Gore People wanted to shut down the use of natural gas, even though, in the 1990s, it was called "the clean burning fuel." 

People need to be taught that 427 parts per million of co2 in the atmosphere covers less than 1/2 of 1/10 of 1% of the sky outside.  Meanwhile methane exists at 2 parts per million in the sky outside.  Moreover, 90% of all greenhouses gases in the Earth's atmosphere is WATER VAPOR.  In fact, cirrus clouds are more successful at retaining infrared heat than is co2, especially when co2 vibrates in its "symmetrical stretch mode" which is explained in other Blue Marble Album posts.

Incidentally, there are over 60 climate & weather history posts here, at the Blue Marble Album.  Those posts tell the tale of the tape.  Being that Kamala Harris didn't become president, you can rest assured that those 60+ super-educational posts are available to you, at your convenience.  Kamala's goal of imposing anti-first-amendment censorship did not make its way to the internet.  

Okay then, we return to the subject-at-hand, namely the record-breaking high stock market indices, during a time erroneously predicted by a proven political airhead to be a time of economic crisis.

See: https://www.spglobal.com/commodity-insights/en/news-research/latest-news/crude-oil/042924-us-lpg-lng-exports-hit-record-high-as-us-gas-production-booms

... Nothing anywhere near a mid-July recession arose.  Instead, Americans enjoyed a budget surplus in June of 2025, to the tune of $27 billion.  This was unlike the Biden & HARRIS Administration which had ZERO budget surpluses in its 48 months of existence.

... Moreover, as of 2025, Catholic hospitals still don't have to perform abortions under penalty of confiscation & prosecution which would actually have been confiscation & persecution.  Moreover, the FBI is no longer spying on Roman Catholics who prefer the historic Latin Mass for their Sunday services.  

And remember, Kamala Harris despises the Catholic Church so much that, in 2024, she refused to attend the traditional Al Smith Catholic Charities Dinner that democrat nominee Walter Mondale did not attend in 1988, shortly before he suffered the most embarrassing defeat in presidential election history.  

Of course, Kamala's great humiliation in the 2024 election was that she was the first major-party nominee in 92 years to fail to flip a single county in America.  The last time this happened was during the Great Depression, in 1932.  Meanwhile, Donald Trump flipped TEN CALIFORNIA COUNTIES, to the embarrassment of the former California AG and US senator from California, Kamala the Clueless.

... In addition, young lads/boys are no longer being chemically castrated.  And women athletes are no longer getting punched in the face by males completely endowed with the XY chromosome, yet who claim to be women.

... Airport traffic control systems have been placed in the queue for modernization, and Iran lost its ability to annihilate Israel, as well as having lost control of its own airspace.

... women are no longer being set on fire by illegal immigrants in any American subway, and women joggers are no longer getting attacked, raped, and brutally murdered by unvetted immigrants, as had repeatedly occurred while KAMALA HARRIS was vice president.  

Nor are unsuspecting women being pushed off of subway decks, into the path of oncoming subway cars.  In fact, the southern border is finally secure, except for whatever bribery agreements take place at the Legal Ports of Entry.  There was no legislation needed to do secure the long Southern Border.  There was only the need for an entirely new presidential administration which did NOT include KAMALA HARRIS.  Photographic and even satellite evidence can easily prove this to be so.

Let us review recent days:

As of Wednesday, July 23rd, the Wilshire 5000 reached its all-time record high of 63,594.93.  It then closed at 63,586.97.   For those unaware, the Wilshire 5000 is the most complete of all the stock market gauges, otherwise known as stock market indices.

The somewhat similar Dow-Jones US TOTAL Stock Market Index (which is different than the Dow-Jones Industrial Avg) reached a new all-time record high of 62,952.12.  It then closed at 62,950.87. 

Next came Friday, July 25th.  More gains occurred throughout the network of stock market indices, including the Wilshire 5000 and the DJ US Total Stock Market Index.  We begin with the Wilshire 5000, directly below.

Below:  On April 21st, 2025, the Wilshire 5000 stood at 51,401.04.   On July 25th, it reached a record high of 63,898.48.  It then closed at 63,834.25.  Within 95 days, it gained 12,433.21 points.

The NASDAQ 100 also reached its mid-day all-time record high on Friday, July 25th.  It reached 23,326.30.  It then closed at 23,298.15.  On April 21st, it closed at 17,808.30.  Therefore, within 95 days, it gained 5,489.85 points.

Then comes the Russel 3000 which also surpassed its all-time high on Friday, July 25th.  It reached 3,636.53 during mid-day and then closed at 3,632.88.  On April 21st, it closed at 2,930.36 pts.  Thus, within 95 days' time it gained 702.58 points.  That is a 23.9% increase of 2,930.

Kamala's prediction of a Failed Economy was a Failed Prediction ... for sure

 Earlier in 2025, Kamala said ... in front of a televised audience ... that we were already in the greatest man-made economic crisis in modern presidential history.  She also said that we would end up in something similar to a recession by the middle of 2025.  It was another Kamala Harris Falsehood ... followed by a failed prediction.  The opposite transpired.  

Ironically, the greatest modern man-made economic crisis occurred under President George Bush, Jr & Vice President Dick Cheney.  And of course, Kamala campaigned with the verbose daughter of Dick Cheney, in 2024.  This did NOT make for good optics, to registered voters.

Moreover, Kamala was vice president when the United States underwent its highest inflation rate since December of 1981.  That was the highest inflation rate in 41 years.  Thus, there's ample evidence which shows that Kamala doesn't know what she's talking-about when she does talk, and she lies as a matter of habit.

You need to get information and commentaries from those who have a proven track record and who are honest.  That's neither Kamala nor the Hate-filled Racist Reid nor others you've seen & heard on daytime TV, as well as those you have seen on MSNBC at any hour of the day or night.  

All in all, when the 2026 California gubernatorial election arrives, keep in mind that a vote for Kamala Harris will be a vote for dereliction of duty and the abandonment of those most in need of protection from violence.  There are more than enough posts here, at the Blue Marble Album, to explain Kamala in detail, and there is a search box at the top right-side of this page.  Get yourself informed.

Concerning Kamala's #1 obsession:

When it's a matter of a healthy woman, abortion is NOT a human right.  Abortion is a human wrong.  This is because a woman carries an entirely different, unique and independent human life which starts out as totally helpless.  Abortion ... when the mother's life is not in danger ... is the act of a bully, as much as it's the act of a coward.

The healthy mother may always give the child up for adoption ... as long as it's to a family or orphanage who will keep the child alive and unharmed by predators.  No questions asked.  No judgments made.  Simply a thankyou for keeping the child alive.   The psychological and spiritual needs of the child can fall into place later.

The whole mission is to keep the child alive.  That's all.  But, Kamala Harris, in the darkness and narcissism of her soul, will oppose this mission in every way she can.  This is because her mission is to be in control of you and to have the power of life over death over you ... and everyone else.  She basically wants to be worshipped.  

In her recent two minute prerecorded message to the Gen Z summit, Kamala said, "Keep building your political power.  Keep building communities.  Keep building coalitions." ... "I look forward to keep fighting along side you."  And why did she say this?  

ANS:  Being that she squandered $1.5 billion in 107 days, she will no longer receive any campaign donations from any sane & rational millionaire or billionaire.  She needs people to start new coalitions, to raise campaign dollars for her.  Then, Kamala can walk-in and take over without doing any of the work.   And of course, Kamala is too incompetent to work in a real job.  So, she ran for political office and became a career politician.  She had a twenty year run.  That qualifies as a Career Politician.

She described herself as continuing to fight along side Gen Z's new coalitions ... but to do so as the Democrat Party nominee.  Kamala is a narcissist.  Therefore, she will continue to claw for power as much as an alcoholic claws for the next fifth of whiskey ... or case of wine.  Whatever the position or office is, she will claw for it.  And remember, modern Americans have been stupid enough to have voted for stupid people.

Kamala thinks that she's special.  But, she has proven herself to be an inarticulate airhead.  She thinks that she's glamorous.  She thinks that she's divine ... a sexy divine.  But, when you take-off that layer of cosmetic make-up from her face, you see an aging & homely nerdy & geeky chump change dork ... not withstanding any recent Botox treatment or cosmetic surgery or Senolytic treatment or low-carb regime or fitness training.  But, her aura is what counts and its not one that inspires.  Kamala Harris is a very hollow Hollywood con job.  

Even though she presents herself on stage as the sexy candidate, she never came close to being a Farah Fawcett type or a Pam Grier or an Elke Sommer or a Donna Summer or a Suzanne Somers or a Susan Lucci or a Lauren Becall or a Sophia Loren or an Audrey Hepburn or a Jang Won-young or a Marilyn McCoo or a Michelle Thomas or a Michelle Pfeiffer or a Farung Yuthithum or a Diane Lane or a Dionne Warwick or a Raquel Welch or a Rachel Weisz or a Robin Wright or a Naomi Campbell or a Neve Campbell or a Mila Kunis or a Natalie Portman  ...  

... and moreover, she never came close to being another Eleanor Roosevelt.   But, let me guess.  It's racist to admire Eleanor Roosevelt.

            Vanity is not the trait of a leader, and vanity is an element of narcissism.  Narcissism kills.

           

Multiple major American stock market indices surpass their all-time highs.

July 30th Update:

As was cited in a later post, certain stock market indices surpassed their all-time record high on July 21, July 23rd, and July 25th.  The stock market charts/graphs illustrating these record high gains are posted at the "later posts," and they are posted pursuant to 17 USC 107.  That's the Fair Use Act.

As far as goes the July 30th update, it has been widely reported that America's Gross Domestic Product for the Second Quarter of 2025 rose 3% as a yearly ... and not monthly ... percentage.  There's no recession here in America, folks.  

And of course, in this era of propaganda, Trump-haters are conjuring-up anything they can, to make you believe that any present successful American financial statistic is a mere "mirage."  However, we are actually dealing with sleight-of-hand deceptions and people claiming that economic disaster is around the corner and ready to crash into Americans.  That crash happened under Biden, beginning in 2022.  Plus, disaster definitely happened under George Bush Jr and Dick Cheney.

July 18th Update ... With three pictures being worth three thousand words, a reasonable human can see that Kamala Harris' mouth is worthless ... along with the mouths of certain other doomsayers who will not be mentioned here, out of politeness.  Both the NASDAQ Composite and the S&P 500 surpassed their all-time record highs in the morning hours of July 18 ... and after July 18th.  For the S&P, it was 6,315.61.  For the NASDAQ Composite, it was 20,927.56.

.

In addition, the Russel 3000 and the Wilshire 5000 both surpassed their all-time highs on July 18th, as well.  Wilshire reached 63,148.85, and the Russel 3K reached 3,594.76; both did so at the start of the July 18th trading session.  

In the mid-morning hours of July 18th, the Dow-Jones US Total Stock Market Index also surpassed its all-time high, to the tune of 62,528.16.  Several other indices are near their record highs.  In fact, several other ones already surpassed their all-time highs in June and/or July 2025 ... and sometimes more than once.

July 10th, 2025, Update:

The United States enjoyed a $27 billion budget surplus for June 2025.  Economists predicted that June would result in a $41.5 billion deficit.  But, they were wrong.  

June 2025's surplus was the first monthly surplus since 2017.  And remember, there were ZERO months of a budget surplus during the tenure ... during the con artist reign ... of Biden & Harris.  There was only debt and high prices, as well as the sufferings imposed upon the working poor and even some of the middle class.  Meanwhile, the wealthy did very well with their Wall Street investments, under Biden & Harris.  See: 

https://www.econotimes.com/US-Posts-First-Monthly-Budget-Surplus-Since-2017-Amid-Tariff-Windfall-1715861

The S&P 500 surpassed its all-time high on July 10th, 2025, to the tune of 6,290.22.  It then closed at 6,280.46.  The closing price was above the former all-time high, also.

The NASDAQ Composite surpassed its all-time high on July 10th, 2025, to the tune of 20,655.39.  It then closed at 20,630.66 which also was above the former all-time high of July 3rd.

The NYSE Composite reached 20,724, on July 10, 2025.  It was 18 points away from its all-time high of 20,742.  It then closed at 20,678.11.

The Dow-Jones US Total Stock Market Index surpassed its all-time high on July 10th, 2025, to the tune of 62,277.68.  It then closed at 62,167.25.

The Dow 30, aka Dow-Jones Industrial Avg reached 44,775.47.  It then closed at 44,650.64.  Its all-time high is 45,073.63.

The Russell 3000 surpassed its all-time high on July 10th, 2025, to the tune of 3,580.51.   It then closed at 3,574.42.

AS OF JULY 20TH, 2025

The average price for a gallon of regular gasoline below $3.00 per gallon is in TWENTY-THREE sovereign states of America.  In fact, in THIRTY-ONE states, the average price of a gallon of regular gasoline is below $3.10 per gallon.  Throughout Trump's first term, the avg price of gas was regularly below $3.00.  At one point, it was literally $1.93 per gallon.

End of July 10th and July 20th Update.

The bottom line here is that Donald Trump is NOT tanking the stock market.  So, no longer waste your time on the-sky-is-falling journalists and commentators ... as well as those "Hollywood box office hits" who now play the role of political science professor and economist.  They spent their lives in the World of Make-Believe.  They should employ a measure of humility.  They don't have the technical or academic know-how, for them to speak and be credible.  And they surely don't have the wisdom that comes with work experience in any one of the various trades which are absolutely necessary for civilization to not return to caves. 

Avoid wasting your time on those "celebrities" who claimed that Wall Street doom and the greatest economic crisis of some kind was already upon us.  And avoid those who try to put you into a panic, where you suddenly conclude that it's time to put a bullet in Donald Trump's head, in order to save mankind.  You literally need to get those people court-ordered into psychiatric evaluation.  They are doing nothing but inflaming the public.  They're provoking anger by lying to the People.

Such persons are political operatives who seek to frighten you into voting for all that is Democrat which happens to be all that is perverted and manipulative, as well as all that is dishonest and irresponsible.  By the way, I'm a registered INDEPENDENT.  I think for myself, while playing the role of Sherlock Holmes, in referring to Ye Olde Statical Facts in proportionality with the other stats.   

Concerning this "thinking for yourself" thing, where the mouthpieces of MSNBC, CBS, and ABC become one continuous persona non grata to you, try it some day.   It actually works.  You don't have to be an obnoxious puppet, marching down a street, while holding a sign, where an occasional ambulance or delivery truck needs to travel.  After all, "obnoxious" is like Jasmine Crockett.  Obnoxious is not nice.

The July 3rd Update

Directly Below:  A preview of five stock market indices as of July 3rd, 2025:  [I] The Dow-Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index,  [II] the Dow-Jones Industrial Avg, aka the Dow 30,  [III] the Dow-Jones Transportation Stocks, [IV] the NASDAQ 100, and then [V] the New York Stock Exchange Composite.  These are not the only Winner Stock Market Indices of Recent.

The one illustration below comprises the graphical results of the 30 days prior to Independence Day 2025.  Percentage gains are mentioned in the multi-lined caption below the graph.  Arithmetic point increases are stated also, and each point equals one American dollar ... one GW ... one continental cabbage leaf.

This involved a time when the stock markets and crude oil futures market were being jeopardized by what turned out to be the 12 Day War.  It paints a picture understandable enough for a novice.

Before we go any further, mention of tariffs need be made.  Well, being that a picture is worth a thousand words, the following will suffice in an introductory mention of US tariff revenue in 2025.  And of course, it's posted pursuant to 17 USC 107:  

This post has added importance to it, because Kamala will not quit lying.  She will not refrain from deceiving people into thinking that America is in an evil evil crisis that only she can stop.  In fact, on July 4th, Kamala tweeted that things are hard right now, and they will probably get worse, before they get better.  And then she mentioned loving this country and restarting to fight for it.

Now, what shows Kamala's sheer asininity in her 4th of July posts?  ANS:  She continues to mention "fighting."  In contrast, Donald Trump's headline concern is . . . "making a deal" and "making peace."  Kamala thinks in terms of violence.  After all, she praised the George Floyd rioters on the Stephen Colbert Show, saying that "they're" not going to stop ... not stop arson, vandalism, assault, and murder.

Kamala was repeatedly accused of having been a bully to her staffers, even to the point of using swear-words.  Such a person is a violent person..  Donald Trump, on the other hand, thinks like the typical New York City Slicker Businessman.  Thus, Donald's second concern is . . . making Americans SAFE.  And even in his post-Independence-Day impromptu press conference at the dinner table with Ben Netanyahu present, Donald was even-keeled and articulate.  He was alert.

Kamala, in direct contrast, continues with the feisty rhetoric.  And of course, ICE agents are now getting targeted by gunmen, and while a local officer was responding to hostile civilians outside of an ICE center, an agent got shot in the neck.  

The irony to Kamala's fight-fight-fight mentality is that she is a wrinkling runt at the age of 60.  However, such ungraceful aging is ever-so-coincidentally present in alcoholics.  And of course, alcoholics can be violent-minded.  None the less, there are videos of Kamala that look all too suspicious.

One is a multiple Nobel Prize Nominee, and the other is not.

The other drastic difference between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris is that Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize FOUR TIMES, before 2025.  Kamala was never nominated for any Nobel Prize.  All in all, democrats know how to do nothing but cause fear & resentment ... and to incite violence.  This is why I formally left the Democrat Party on July 1, 2024 and became an Independent. 

An NBC Poll

Now, this is the Kamala Harris who received the LOWEST VICE PRESIDENTIAL APPROVAL RATING, in the history of the NBC VP rating poll.  She achieved this embarrassing distinction in the middle of 2023.  Then, one year later, she was being treated as the Messiah.  Yet, this is the Kamala Harris who was basically a do-nothing during the Biden Years.  This is the Kamala Harris who repeatedly made a buffoon out of herself, even in claiming that America had a close alliance with North Korea.  

After Kamala left office, "things" have gotten much better.  For example:  [1] There are people in America actually paying less than $3 per gallon for regular gasoline.  [2] A bully in the Middle East got its warmongering infrastructure decimated.  [3] Violent criminals and human traffickers have been taken into custody by the truckload.  Thus, young ladies and moms out for jogs are no longer getting attacked, raped, and murdered.  

And yes, Kamala's idea of "hard times" is unvetted illegal immigrants finding it harder to rape & murder white American women who don't have secret service protection or any other kind of protection.

[4] Now that the Bidens & Kamala are finally gone, girls throughout America no longer have to worry about intrusions into their most personal spaces.  Likewise, men claiming to be women, despite their unremovable XY chromosomes, are no longer declared the champions of female sports.  Women boxers will no longer be allowed to get punched in the face and put into shock by a male who, in all of his XY chromosome glory, pretends to be a female in a boxing rink.  Event Managers who allowed such boxing matches to occur must be prosecuted for Assault & Battery.

[5] Today, there is actually an effort to rid from America & American bodies toxic chemical additives, chemical allergens, irritants, endocrine disruptor chemicals, asthma-incitant chemicals, and even clastogen chemicals ... aka mutation-inducing chemicals ... that literally break DNA strands and cause the rearrangement of chromosome sections, and even the deletion of such sections.  Simply ask RFK, Jr.

[6++] Numerous other things have occurred that bring relief to Americans, such as the stock market indices surpassing record highs ... and Real Wage Rate Growth this year literally doubling that of the Biden Administration last year.

Being that she is still claiming that we are in a great crisis, the people who are most easily deceived by the adulteress Kamala need to see in chart & graph form what a liar she is.  The Biden Administration was a sick joke, and Kamala was one of the buffoons of that administration.

Those easily deceived people must also understand what an abusive boss Kamala was, even as San Fran DA.  She has a history of being vicious and of wasting taxpayer dollars.  Plus, she wasted so much campaign donation dollars that the wealthy who are not insane will not donate to Kamala any more.  

The motto is, "If you can't run a campaign, then you can't run a country."  The aforementioned was the quote of one of Kamala's million-dollar donors who regretted donating to her.  Likewise, if you run your campaign into the ground, then you will run this nation into the ground.

Let us begin the graphical & statistical review that shows Kamala to be a liar

There are six graphs below which cover the July 3rd, 2025 updates of [I] the Dow-Jones Industrial Average,  [II] the S&P 500,  [III] the NASDAQ Composite which stands for National Association of Security Dealers' Automated Quotes,  [IV] the NYSE Composite which stands for New York Stock Exchange and which is similar to NASDAQ's composite,  [V] the Dow-Jones US Total Stock Market Index which covers the top 95% of stocks sold in America, and  [VI] the Russell 3000 Index.  Five of these indices recently surpassed their all-time highs.  One index is a half percentage point away from reaching its high.  And of course, those are not the only Wall Street Winners of Recent.

The Pertinence:  The Kamala Harris who squandered over a billion campaign donation dollars in a 107 day period ... and who failed to flip a single Republican red county to Democrat Party blue ... mocked Donald Trump in the opening months of 2025.  She expressly said that we were now in "the greatest man-made economic crisis in modern presidential history."  No, we are NOT.  Kamala is a liar, hoping that the mainstream media will continue to lie for her and make her president ... or governor of California.  She's a narcissist who is obsessed with the idea of running people's lives.

The mockery of Trump's economic policies was stated by Kamala two times before Trump started his Wall Street Reset via tariff rescheduling.  At the time, the Dow 30 hovered between 42,000 to 44,000 points.  Therefore, Kamala was making-up a fiction, trying to scare people into voting for her in 2028.

Kamala also said that she "told us so," and mentioned her prediction about America undergoing a Recession by July 2025.  Well, it didn't happen.  Meanwhile, the smirk-faced Rachel Maddow said that Donald Trump was 'tanking the stock market(s),' as well as him "tanking the American economy."  Sounds serious.

And of course, the hate-filled, black MSNBC racist ... who is no longer with MSNBC, but who still is a vile racist ...  smugly stated that Donald managed to ruin a strong & growing economy given to him by Demented Joe Biden.  Needless to say, she was proven to be completely full of crap, from A to Z and back to A again.  

Even though the Biden Economy only benefited the wealthy, and brought grief to the working poor, other journalists wrote in a similar vein against Trump, at the start of 2025.  They claimed that Trump received a magnificent economy and ruined it.  It was low respect to no respect for Donald Trump from those people.

That statement was a spit in the face of those who suffered constantly under Biden Alzheimer's Incompetence .. and under Kamala's indifference toward the suffering of millions of others who constantly had trouble making ends meet at the end of every month.  It was NOT a magnificent economy for those people.

However, those who were familiar with Wall Street stated that Trump was "performing a reset of the Stock Market," in his April endeavor.   And then, some of those who formally studied econ, accounting, and finance, such as yours truly, stated that Trump was "playing Chicken" and that he would quickly adjust his "Tariff Schedule" as needed.  

Okay then, it's now past the 249th Independence Day of America.  Donald Trump has been in office for FIVE and a half months.  Let's see how the stock markets and other elements of the US economy fared, in light of the mockery hurled at Trump by Rachel, the Repulsive Reid, Kamala, and others claiming that Donald was wrecking Wall Street.

To start, the Great Stock Market Rebound began on April 22nd, 2025.  July 3rd, therefore, marks 73 days after the start of the Great Rebound.  So, we now look at the graphical stats of 6 stock indices, as of July 3rd.

The Early July 2025 Stock Market Update, starting with the Dow-Jones Industrial Avg

We start with the Dow-Jones Industrial Average, otherwise known as the Dow 30 ... and also known as the DJIA.  On June 24th, the DJIA  surpassed the 43,000 mark, landing at 43,089.02.  Then, at closing time on June 30th, the DJIA surpassed 44,000 points, landing at 44,094.77.  As of THURSDAY, JULY 3RD, the DJIA stood at 44,828.53.  

Now, the all-time record high of the DJIA is 45,073.63.  Thus, the DJIA, on July 3rd, stood at 99.4% of its all-time high.  It was one-half percentage point away from reaching its high.

The S&P 500

On Thursday, June 26, the S&P 500 surpassed its all-time high.  It soon surpassed its all-time high again.  And then, on July 3rd, the S&P 500 achieved yet another new all-time high, to the tune of 6,279.35.   See for yourself:

The NASDAQ Composite

The NASDAQ Composite reached 98.5% of its all-time high on June 24th.  It stood at 19,912.53.  Then, on June 27th, it reached the 20,273.45 point mark.  It surpassed its all-time high.  Then came Thursday, July 3rd, where the composite reached a new all-time high of 20,624.51, during mid-day.  It then closed at 20,601.10.  Lookie see:

The New York Stock Exchange Composite

Being that a picture is worth a thousand words, look for yourself.  The NYSE Composite's all-time high occurred on July 3rd, 2025, to the tune of  20,742.38.  It then closed at 20,725.79.  It reads much like the NASDAQ Composite.

Another Dow-Jones Stock Market Index

Next comes the Dow-Jones US Total Stock Market Index ... which is different than the Dow-Jones Industrial Avg.   It surpassed the 62,000 point mark on July 3rd, 2025, and then reached its all-time high of 62,182.46.  It then closed at 62,136.35.

Posted pursuant to 17 USC 107

The Russell 3000

The Russell 3000 surpassed its all-time high also, on June 30th, to the tune of 3,526.40.    However, as of July 2nd, 2025, its new all-time became 3,543.11.  Then came July 3rd, where it surpassed its short-lived new all-time high and reached the newer all-time high of 3,575.64.  It then closed at 3,573.18.  See for yourself:

In review, new all-time highs were reached at the end of June 2025 ... and/or in early July ... for the S&P 500, the NASDAQ Composite, the NYSE Composite, and the Dow-Jones US Total Stock Market Index, as well as the Russell 3000.  The DJIA is half a percentage away from reaching its all-time high, as of July 3rd.  

However, expect the DJIA to decrease in number after Independence Day, due to investors getting haunted ... getting spoked ... with the knowledge of tariffs letters being sent by Donald Trump to [1] Japan,  [2] South Korea, [3] Cambodia,  [4] Laos,  [5] Myanmar,  [6] Thailand,  [7] Indonesia,  [8] Malaysia,  [9] Bangladesh, [10] Kazakhstan,  [11] Serbia,  [12] Bosnia & Herzegovina,  [13] Tunisia, and  [14] South Africa.

 

In light of this, take note of two things:  Not a single "tariff notice" was sent to any nation in the Western Hemisphere.  Neither to North America nor to Central America nor to South America.  Plus, no "tariff notice" was sent to Europe, except for Bosnia & Herzegovina.  HOWEVER, a 35% tariff upon Canada has been set for August 1.

In conclusion, as of Independence Day 2025, the stock Markets in America were NOT tanking.  There was nowhere near any greatest economic crisis in modern presidential history.  Kamala lied, and she lied because she's talentless and has nothing to offer of herself.  She's worthless.  She then tries to trick you into becoming terrified of her political opponent, so that you will vote for her.  And remember, she got her launch into politics by committing  ... more than once ... the eternally damnable sin of adultery.  That is "cheating" in more ways than one.

Those who claimed that the US stock markets were tanking simply resented Donald Trump.  They are hoping that economic destruction will come to America, assuming that they will be immune in their Hollywood & Madison Avenue wealth.  They were hoping to see your demise, so that they could gloat and say, "I told you so."   They would then score big in the next election and the one after that.
