It's a Numbers Game: Meta Hit With $567M Ruling as Jobs Report Raises Midterm Warning Signs

View descriptionShare
 

Meta is facing a massive $567 million ruling in New Mexico as scrutiny intensifies over social media, children’s mental health, online safety, and Big Tech’s responsibility for what happens on its platforms.

Ryan Girdusky breaks down why the Meta case could be only the beginning, with similar lawsuits threatening to create a much larger reckoning for the social media industry. Could mounting legal pressure finally force Congress to act on Big Tech and protections for children?

Then, Ryan turns to the latest jobs report and what the numbers could mean politically heading toward the 2026 midterm elections. Job creation is showing signs of weakness, labor-force participation remains a concern, and inflation is putting pressure on wage gains. Ryan examines which workers are being hit hardest—and why those trends could become a major political problem for Republicans.

Plus, Ryan answers listener questions on H-1B visas and illegal immigration, potential 2028 presidential dark horses, John Thune and Senate strategy, and the political impact of the THC/Delta-8 fight in Texas.
