Just imagine how bad the job market would look if Congress was not allowed to run trillions in debt.
We are on borrowed time.
The borrowed spending needs to end yesterday, and enough cuts to pay it down need to be done.

A much lower number of jobs than expected. This is not the news I was hoping for.

No one believes that.

The issue is 3 things...SS, Medicare and Defense. You can cut everything else and it does nothing to do the debt if something isn't changed about the big 3.

Eh. Just got trade deals with Japan and the EU. And I suspect people saying this is also a result of illegals being kicked are correct. Also, I think this includes loss of wasteful government jobs?

My farm created 2 new full time jobs
Hired one black man for 52k salary. Great experienced worker on fish farms

Ah so you just happened to repeat the baseless bullshite that Trump said and this happened to come just after the poor jobs report. And this is in no way a distraction from the fact that Maxwell just got moved to a minimum security prison after meeting with the DOJ. Head firmly planted into the sand with you
For some there is never any bad news, just simply some news that needs more spin than others. This is one of those times

Needs to happen. Treasuries dropped bigly today. Way overdue

And I do not recall Joe Biden ever calling out the Fed. Not ONE frickING TIME.
I don’t recall Biden being able to complete a single coherent sentence at that point in time. So, there’s that.

The fact that they finally decided to lower them (in Sept of 2024 IIRC) is what your concerned about? They raised rates for 2 years because they had to. All the while you clowns bitched about "Biden's" inflation. Lowering them 2 months before the election had ZERO immediate impact
Financially, they had no immediate impact.
Politically is another story.
Rate reductions are viewed positively by a large swath of potential voters.
You are looking at the fiscal reality, not the political one.
Like as not, there are (have been) times when the FED is politicized, and it is usually in the lead up to the election.

interesting deflection. when are the numbers remotely accurate from this department?
They don't really need to be accurate. As long as the methodology remains the same, the numbers will continuously provide a baseline for comparison.

touché. The Left sure loves lowering the bar, then acting like we’re not supposed to notice.
