According to the ADP National Employment Report, jobs lost were 2,760,000. We expected that figure to be 9,000,000.

It's still bad, but these numbers were a shock. Another agency gives its jobs report next week.

And 2.5 million jobs added last month! Once we fully open up, the economy will fully rebound, and Biden will need some jelly or jam, because he is toast.

On Friday, the unemployment rate surprisingly fell to 13.3% in May from April's record of 14.7%, the Labor Department said, which was the highest since the Great Depression. While unemployment among white workers fell to 12.4%, unemployment for black workers rose to 16.8%, the highest in more than a decade and particularly crippling because they often have a more fragile safety net to rely on.

That is because black Americans disproportionately live in urban centers, most of which remained under strict lockdown measures in May, while rural areas and some smaller population centers eased up.

Probably because the media isn’t giving the good news... ever. Trust in the media is at an all time low, which is a shame because we had an amazing few things happen recently, such as the successful Space X launch.

Dems are cheering for the economy to do badly, including unemployment, and particularly black unemployment, so that they can get rid of President Trump.

Actually, I think the democrats are in complete denial that their party has a snake in it that is very dangerous. These riots will continue until this has been addressed.

The leftists do not recognize the real and present danger to our very republic, because their righteous anger has been hijacked and shamelessly stolen. The angry ones at ground zero are functioning at a complete emotional level and cannot be reasoned with, and the progressive elites in their ivory, Hollywood towers are so far removed from the reality of people’s lives literally getting shattered into shards, that they are actively perpetuating it by bailing every single one of the rioters and looters and arsonists out so they can go and destroy yet another hundred livelihoods.

The media are feeling special and invincible, and are suddenly shocked when the rioters AND the police shove them aside, then proceed to excuse this behavior by perpetuating the “peaceful protest” story, giving even more cover for the bad actors and fuel for the righteous anger.

Our republic is being tested in a very real way, and it isn’t a drill. I have witnessed a person on my Facebook feed grow radicalized this past week, and is actively sharing advice on how to break the law “safely”, whatever that means. She is sharing war tactics using literal gaming terms, like this is an entertaining hero fantasy, like they’re marching into a revolutionary war enactment.

This stopped being about George Floyd and racial issues a long time ago. This is an attempted coup by militant anarcho-communists that despise capitalism and wish to destroy the fabric of every American’s life. They genuinely do not care who you are, they will do everything to sow destruction and chaos - destroying banks, burning churches, defacing memorials, lynching rich neighborhoods or symbols of wealth, and yes, killing people. These are not white supremacists, because those guys, as revolting as their ideology is, still like working, buying food, going to BBQs, and enjoying the freedoms the rest of us all have. They absolutely would not destroy their own way of life, and neither would the establishment democrats. The white progressive, being the only major demographic in this country with a NEGATIVE ingroup bias, though? Would willingly tear the whole country down, not even realizing they were being used the entire time.

Why do you think guns have disappeared from shelves everywhere? Unless this situation is decisively de-escalated or otherwise dealt with, we will not be able to return to living our lives.

Americans are more alike than we think. We are all basically patriots at heart. We do band together in times of crisis, and it is our impulse to help in a tragedy. There’s confusion, because this is simultaneously a tragedy and an ongoing dumpster fire. The protesters don’t want this. Real Americans don’t want this. These are terrorists, hiding neatly in the shadow of these current events. Democrats? No, they’re Americans too.

Let’s be clear: The left said we would lose another 8 million jobs in May. Let that sink in. This will be the shortest “recession” in history by far.

President Trump was brilliant in telling the governors they can decide how to open, and look at the numbers. Imagine what would have happened if we had fully opened. By November, we will be back to where we were and surpass it next year.

Let’s just say the Dems have destroyed their own gun control agenda.

Let’s be clear: This is the strongest job report in history. Prior to this, the record was in September of 1993 with 1.5 million jobs. Further, 73 percent of businesses are now up and running compared to only 52 percent in April at the height of the epidemic.

The media’s wishcasting was so far off it is ridiculous.

People all over the world have seen the brutality over the past week, from police. Not ALL of them, but quite a few. I have journalist friends who have been scared for a few years, because Trump keeps attacking them, and calling them the enemy of the people. Now this country isn't considered as safe a place for them - do you think that's a good thing?

I read that unemployment was a gaffe, and that it's actually worse than that. Don't have the link handy.

People all over the world have seen the brutality and violence from so called...'peaceful protesters' as they committed murder, arson, destruction of private and public property and physical assaults.

To the degree the press covers for criminals, glorify their crimes and their persons and lie to their readers and viewers about important stories....THEY ARE THE ENEMIES OF THE PEOPLE.

A free press..YES.

A lying, corrupt, political press meddling in our elections...HELL NO.

They should exit America, stage LEFT.

Kudos to President Trump for turning the blowtorch on their sorry a$$es.
