Welcome! 339,000 jobs were added to the economy in May, defying expectations. HEADLINE: Nearly 30 children reported missing in Cleveland during first 2 weeks of May - NY Post OUCH: N.H. lawmaker switches endorsement to DeSantis after Trump attacks Kayleigh McEnany -
At what point will Dems realize that Trump or anybody else can be elected over “Biden” in 18 months, considering the acceleration of his decline for all to see? What will they do?
"More jobs but more unemployment? As the economy continues to ostensibly soften, more Americans are returning to the labor force pushing the unemployment rate higher despite surprising job creation."
This always kills me. There are TWO surveys, Establishment and Household. We get the jobs created from the former, the unemployment rate from the latter. The former was good, BUT THE HOUSEHOLD SURVEY WAS TERRIBLE!! And that's why the unemployment rate went up, NOT because "Americans are returning to the labor force."
The Household Survey for May showed that the labor force increased 130,000 -- a modest number; it often goes over a half million. But the Employed number actually FELL 310,000 in May. Worse, the Unemployed number ROSE 410,000! That's why the Unemployment Rate went up .3 percent, NOT because of good news.
Not defending our Bumbler-In-Chief but ... a quick search of online news sites such as the AP's clearly shows there were two small black sandbags directly in the path Biden was directed to follow. Likely they were there to prevent the covering on the platform from blowing away. Or maybe dangerous white supremacists deliberately placed them in Joe's path ... you decide.
The decision was actually mostly a win for labor. The majority rejected an opportunity to overturn some old precedent that the chamber of commerce didn’t like.
While the ruling favored the employer, the court reaffirmed any labor complaint must be pursued through the NLRB. They also found a very narrow set of facts (cement truck drivers loaded their trucks with wet cement right before striking intentionally to cause potential economic harm to the employer) authorized an employer to recover for economic lapses caused by the strike.
I don’t see much coming out of this case other than the majority doesn’t have much of an appetite to wade into labor law.

On the CA homeless problem, this DA has it right... https://www.cbsnews.com/sacramento/news/yolo-county-da-says-californias-homeless-crisis-can-be-solved-in-1-year-by-cracking-down-on-drugs/?
So how many people on these lists are working multiple jobs to try and make ends meet?

Trump is sure not acting like somebody who’s sure of victory.
Go SCOTUS!

I've been personally involved in labor unions in the past and have seen their disproportionate powers today. This is a very good summary. Thanks!
