Job opening do not equal actual jobs that are being hired for. Many organizations keep job postings open even though the actual jobs are on a temporary ”freeze”. I’m a former corporate recruiter, trust what I’m saying. It makes this report useless, don’t depend wholly on everyone being truthful or honest, because they are not.
Ghost jobs.....

Trump: All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait, #1, buy from the U.S. and #2, go to the Strait, and just take it

All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil! President DJT
