For those who have followed LinkSwarm links on falsified job data under the Biden Administration, it should come as no surprise that all the job gains in the largest and bluest state in the union in 2023 were fake.
According to the latest report published by the non-partisan California Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) which is an agency of the California government, is overseen by the Joint Legislative Budget Committee of the California State Legislature, and performs and publishes extensive analyses of the state’s budget in addition to providing fiscal and policy advice to the California Legislature, contrary to prior reports of over substantial job gains in the deep blue state in 2023, the reality was far uglier.
In a report titled “Newest Early Jobs Revision Shows No Net Job Growth During 2023” we learn just that: the Early Revisions to state-level data flagged here previously, suggests that California actually lost jobs during the fourth quarter of last year. As the report details, “based on the most recent release of the early benchmarks, payroll jobs declined by 32,000 from September 2023 through December 2023. On the contrary, the preliminary monthly reports showed a solid increase in job growth (+117,000 jobs) at the time.”
This, according to the LAO, means that “with the fourth quarter revision, calendar year 2023 saw essentially no net job growth (+9,000 jobs overall).”
So maybe all but 9,000 were fake? Nope.
The data since January 2024 has not yet been rebenched, which means that the figure includes the Early Benchmark Revision for these recent months are growing at the same rate as the official CES estimates. But one can be absolutely certain that once the next set of revisions come in, California will not have generated any actual job growth for the second year in a row. In fact, make that all of America.
Combine this with the fact that all recent job gains have gone to illegal aliens and it’s probably safe to assume that American citizens living in California suffered net job losses in 2023…

Isn’t California Governor Gavin Newsome supposed to be the savior of the Democrat Party, riding in from the dawn to save them from the collapse of Joe Biden?
When a 25% minimum wage increase for fast food employees was mandated by Sacramento in January, unemployment was certain to result.
Sure enough, within a few months 10,000 layoffs occurred.
Even if the revised 2023 estimate of 9,000 jobs being created were true, the entire gain was wiped out in January-May of 2024. In essence, job growth has stagnated in The Golden State of California.
When a minimum wage increase that has been proposed for California healthcare workers is implemented, the iron rod of economic law will be laid upon the false construct of “money for nothing” and the prosperity promised will be dashed to pieces.
Fake state
Fake electorate
Fake attitudes
Fake policy
Fake haiir
Fake tits
Fake jobs
Fake everything
California needs to become its own country, especially since their leadership won’t shut up about how powerful they are. Nothing would make me happier than to watch the new nations bond rating go to junk faster than Newsome can apply Dapper Dan pomade.

The house had a name and a history; the old gentleman taking his tea would have been delighted to tell you these things: how it had been built under Edward the Sixth, had offered a night’s hospitality to the great Elizabeth (whose august person had extended itself upon a huge, magnificent and terribly angular bed which still formed the principal honour of the sleeping apartments), had been a good deal bruised and defaced in Cromwell’s wars, and then, under the Restoration, repaired and much enlarged; and how, finally, after having been remodelled and disfigured in the eighteenth century, it had passed into the careful keeping of a shrewd American banker, who had bought it originally because (owing to circumstances too complicated to set forth) it was offered at a great bargain: bought it with much grumbling at its ugliness, its antiquity, its incommodity, and who now, at the end of twenty years, had become conscious of a real aesthetic passion for it, so that he knew all its points and would tell you just where to stand to see them in combination and just the hour when the shadows of its various protuberances—which fell so softly upon the warm, weary brickwork—were of the right measure.—Henry James

There. Fixed it for you.
Re the terrible shortage of full-stops – I know that since Hemingway it is no longer fashionable to write long sentences, which might unduly tax the brainpower of the modern reader – be pithy, they say, write in short bursts like the staccato rhythm of a machine gun – but I like long meandering sentences that go through the landscape of the imagination like slow and lazy rivers that hide in the shadows under the trees along their banks little kingdoms in which it is possible to find oneself and to be one with the nature around you.
Give me Henry James, I say, and give me Marcel Proust, writers who from a seemingly innocuous experience are capable of weaving an entire world of the mind, and if I sometimes get lost in the landscape that they conjure up and have to retrace my steps to get back on the right track it is all good. As with everything the pleasure is in the voyage, not in the final destination, and if there are detours along the way and sallies into unexplored corners then that is the way it should be.

I have lived in California since 1960, I spent a decade as a commercial photographer, and the top printing salesman at $7 million per year for another decade and have been a publisher for the past 38 years receiving a Pulitzer for “Witness to War” produced for The Los Angeles Times, 7 best-selling titles including 3 of my own 11 books. I learned long ago that California is obsessed with Hollywood phonies. Fake News, fake tits, fake egos as the state under Gov. Newsom, (Pelosi’s nephew), who screwed his best friend’s wife, is so involved with himself that he ignores our forest as they burn—is $65 Billion in debt spending our tax dollars on more than “1.7 million” ILLEGAL ALIENS to whom we give housing, medical care, education and a debit card… Our state has lost over “800,000” citizens as over 230 major companies moved out taking thousands of jobs with them. California is the highest taxed state in the nation and is known as the “LAND OF FRUIT & NUTS” for a very good reason!
Fake jobs are a nationwide fraud produced by BLS’ CES political fakery. Read Note 5 to Federal Reserve Governor Michelle W. Bowman’s speech at Policy Exchange in London yesterday:
https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/speech/bowman20240625a.htm
“5. The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages (QCEW) report for the fourth quarter of 2023 suggests that the slowdown in payroll employment gains was likely more pronounced than currently reported by the Current Employment Statistics (CES) establishment survey. The Q4 QCEW administrative data show employment gains that are about 110,000 per month lower than what the CES survey reported from March 2023 to December 2023. Although the BLS benchmarks CES payroll employment based on the Q1 QCEW, to be released on August 21, the Q4 QCEW data point to a substantial downward revision to CES employment gains last year.”
Bowman was appointed by Trump in 2018 and has a markedly different background from the usual deep state Federal Reserve Board members.
