About to leave for a new job but unsure if I should leave two weeks notice?

Okay so here's the situation. I accepted a new job offer but I'm debating if I should give a two weeks notice or not. There's a whole lot of reasoning why I'm leaving this job for a different position including in house petty drama, lack of training and coaching, favoritism/nepotism among other things. But I want to do the right thing and give two weeks notice (would have to give by end of the day today) What gives me pause is that currently it's slow at my work. And while they haven't made it a habit, they have in the past cut someone early as opposed to letting them fill out their two weeks. In addition, seeing as how two weeks from now is a holiday in the US (our place is closed Monday and Tuesday for independence day), I don't know if they'll use that as a reason to…

What gives me pause is that currently it's slow at my work. And while they haven't made it a habit, they have in the past cut someone early as opposed to letting them fill out their two weeks. In addition, seeing as how two weeks from now is a holiday in the US (our place is closed Monday and Tuesday for independence day), I don't know if they'll use that as a reason to say I didn't give a full two weeks notice and reduce my last two paychecks to minimum wage. If they do that, seeing as how currently I'm going paycheck to paycheck, it's gonna hurt.

At the same time, two other employees recently gave notice; one has their last day tomorrow and the other has their last day the same as me. Again, I want to do the right thing but also don't want to potentially screw myself. What are your guy's thoughts?
