The August jobs report drops at 8:30 this morning. Here's the number that won't make the headline.

PEOPLE & SOCIETY • DEMOGRAPHICS & POPULATION

The August jobs report drops at 8:30 this morning. But before you read the headline, know this: only 61.4% of working-age Americans are either employed or looking for work — down a full percentage point since December, the lowest since 1976 outside of the pandemic. It had been rock-steady near 62.5% for almost three years, then fell off a cliff in seven months. What that means for you: the unemployment rate can look fine while millions of Americans vanish from the count — they’re not unemployed, they’re not employed, they’re just… gone.

A new financial dividing line is being drawn across America.

By the time most people understand what’s happening, their savings and investments could already be stranded on the wrong side.

I believe the U.S. dollar is being reset.

This has nothing to do with crypto. Or a central bank digital currency. Something far bigger is in motion – and it's already been signed and sealed in the back rooms of D.C., ready to be issued by the U.S. Treasury.

Bypassing every legal and political channel under the guise of "national security," Trump has enacted this total money reset using a landmark executive order (14241).

Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican, whether you support this new money or not, it doesn't matter.

Soon, every U.S. citizen will be forced to use Trump's New Dollar to fill their gas tank, buy groceries, and pay medical bills.

Which is why I've produced a critical new documentary laying out exactly what Trump's New Dollar means for your savings, your investments, and your family's financial future.

Detailing three important steps you can take today to prepare – including the name of a core band of assets connected to Trump’s initiative that could surge as a result.

As you’ll see in my briefing, the last time America reset its money like this – under Richard Nixon’s presidency in the 1970s – it created one of the greatest wealth divides in the history of our nation.

On one side, it minted an average of 1,300 new millionaires a day for over half a century. And on the other… the folks left behind, drowning in debt, with no idea how to use America’s new money to create wealth.

As Trump rolls out his new dollar, the question is:

Which side will you be on?

PS. If you’re wondering what Trump’s new money will look like, when it will be issued, what it means for your investments – all of those questions are answered in my briefing.

Every American who left the workforce since December — every single one — will be invisible when the unemployment rate hits your screen at 8:31 this morning.
