The number of open jobs in the U.S. economy jumped to 7.6 million in April while layoffs declined, evidence of how demand for workers has intensified. At the end of April, there were just over 7.6 million open positions, up from about 6.9 million at the end of March, according to the Labor Department’s monthly report on job openings and labor turnover. This is the largest number of job vacancies in two years. The manufacturing sector saw openings rise to 474,000, up 24,000 from the previous month and 98,000 higher than a year ago.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials are pleading with California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) to drop the state’s sanctuary policy after an illegal alien is accused of murdering an infant along with the child’s mother and grandmother in a brutal triple murder, Breitbart News has learned. Joaquin Escoto Vazquez, a 28-year-old illegal alien from Mexico, was arrested by the Modesto Police Department and charged with homicide and cruelty towards a child after allegedly murdering an infant, the child’s 23-year-old mother, Fabiola Gonzalez-Nunez, and the child’s 54-year-old grandmother, Maria Sylvia Nunez-Villalobos. According to police, Vazquez allegedly stabbed the three victims at a…

The Chinese state newspaper Global Times quoted an alleged “expert” assuring residents of the country that the threat of an outbreak of Ebola there remains low despite the close economic ties between the Communist Party and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) declared a public health emergency in the DRC in May after local authorities in eastern Ituri province began documenting an outsized number of cases of hemorrhagic fever that were ultimately identified as the Bundibugyo variant of Ebola virus. The unexpected variant meant that health officials took longer to identify the disease as…

The Trump administration is giving the American people what they want in the lead-up to the big 250th birthday celebration and is ignoring pride month — a once unruly, secular celebration beloved by the Biden administration and radical left. Americans came to a breaking point during the Biden administration — specifically, in the summer of 2023, when the Biden administration went all in on “pride” month and Americans were horrified to see a topless transgender activist at the White House pride event, while corporate queering ran amok. The Biden administration made sure to let everyone know that it valued “pride” and…

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has a chance Tuesday to convince Republicans he’s dropping plans for a controversial $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund.” But it’s unclear if members of his party will be swayed enough to unjam President Donald Trump’s larger agenda. Senate Republicans — enough of whom returned from recess still furious about the pot of money — will discuss the status of the fund during a closed-door lunch Tuesday, according to several Republican senators. Hours later Blanche is set to testify to House appropriators certain to grill him on his statements last month that the fund could be used…

Armed Forces Under-secretary Al Carns has said Britain’s “adversaries” would not hesitate to deploy systems that kill without human approval The UK must prepare for the possibility of “taking the human out of the loop” using highly automated weapons systems, according to Al Carns, the parliamentary under-secretary of state for the armed forces.Current British policy on automated weapons states that “there must be context-appropriate human involvement in weapons which identify, select and attack targets.” Carns, however, has argued that the rules may need to be loosened, claiming that countries hostile to Britain would not hesitate to deploy weapons capable of…

International Man: It seems like a growing number of young people have concluded that saving, working hard, and investing prudently won’t get them anywhere. So they’re turning to sports betting, meme stocks, crypto speculation, and lottery-style trades. Is this simply bad judgment, or is it a rational response to a broken financial system? Doug Casey: First, we should define our terms. Namely, what’s the difference between saving, investing, speculating, and gambling? There’s no doubt that speculating and gambling are way up. But these are four very different things, although people conflate them. Saving is about producing more than you consume and setting…

“PragerU has been hit again by Big Tech, and we are about to expose who was behind this egregious and unfair de-platforming,” according to PragerU. PragerU is striking back after Big Tech and the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) attempted to destroy them. The conservative organization was de-platformed by Contentful, the Content Management System (CMS) company that powered its website, which claimed the organization “didn’t meet its criteria for renewal,” PragerU explained in an email obtained by Breitbart News. The organization added that Contentful — a $3 billion Big Tech company — affected “our entire website” when it de-platformed PragerU, and that…

Monday on MS NOW’s “Ana Cabrera Reports,” former Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) said incumbent Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) voting with President Donald Trump 96% of the time might be more offensive than Democrat Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner’s costrovesarys to voters. Boxer said, “Well, I think the truth is the truth. This is extremely offensive. It’s ugly. And, you know, I feel terrible for, for his wife. I do think, however, where we are at this moment in history, you have to look at what’s more offensive. What he did there that he’s apparently worked out with his wife. It’s ugly. It’s…

The Koch-aligned GOP super PAC Americans for Prosperity Action is putting $6.3 million into battleground Senate ads just a few weeks after warning the Republican Senate majority is “at risk.” The ads — shared first with POLITICO — are focused heavily on gas prices and affordability, something the group has warned Democrats will take advantage of in November if Republicans don’t present solutions for voters. The ad buys show that the group is worried about defending Republicans in some very red states. They’re advertising in Montana, which has barely been on the radar for most campaign analysts, as well as…
