April's jobs report — which itself was a massive beat — was also revised to show an even better 179,000 jobs gained, compared to the 115,000 reported earlier. March's payroll growth was similarly updated to show 214,000, bringing the first monthly gain above 200,000 since early 2024.

Shocked that the jobs numbers have been good since Trump attacked and fired the previous Bureau of Labor and Statistics Chief who reported bad numbers.

Such a coincidence!

Nah you came into a thread about the current admin fudging numbers just to pretend the other side is just as bad. And them blamed others of deflation lol

If employers are adding more than 150,000 jobs per month, and the breakeven rate is near zero, then the unemployment rate should be falling, but it’s flat.

How is that mathematically possible? Well, it isn’t.

I honestly think the “silent majority” this November are going to be people like me that voted for Trump in 2016 but will end up being a big reason he is voted out of office this time around. Biggest reason for me is the absolute lack of leadership and accountability.

Been getting some interesting ads in Georgia. Got a letter about how Jon Ossoff is going to destroy Georgia’s economy and attacking him and his character. This was generated by David Perdue.

Ossoffs response? Bring up all the ridiculousness Perdue has done and how he’s left Georgia in a worse position. Didn’t say Ossoffs name once, just said get rid of Perdue.
