Staff Reports
The recent May jobs report showed that the U.S. economy added 272,000 jobs, which exceeded the expectations of many economists. While this may seem like good news on the surface, the Biden administration chooses to overlook some troubling aspects. The unemployment rate has ticked up slightly to 4%, marking the end of the longest streak of sub-4 percent unemployment since the 1960s. The Biden administration is cherrypicking the positive aspects of the report while ignoring the negative implications, such as the rise in unemployment claims.
Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell’s comments about the job creation numbers being potentially overstated could be seen as a subtle criticism of the White House’s economic policies. This lack of transparency and honesty about the true state of the economy is concerning, especially as many Americans continue to struggle to make ends meet. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen’s statement that all Americans are better off now is out of touch with the reality faced by many working-class families.

It is important for the Trump campaign and its supporters to highlight these discrepancies and hold the Biden administration accountable for its mismanagement of the economy. The mainstream media may ignore or downplay these issues, but it is crucial to remain informed through alternative news sources like RedState’s VIP membership program. By staying informed and supporting media outlets that prioritize truth and transparency, Americans can push back against the false narratives being promoted by the current administration and its allies on the radical left.
Janet Yellen just essentially did a commercial for President Trump on the economy.
Amazing moment of honesty from her.
She confirms that prices were much better under Trump and that Americans know it.
Well done Yellen!pic.twitter.com/jdooHRzgkQ

The May jobs report serves as a reminder that the Biden administration’s economic policies fail to deliver real results for the American people. It is time for a more honest and effective approach to fostering growth in the private sector and addressing the ongoing economic challenges. We can work towards a brighter future for all Americans by staying informed and holding leaders accountable.
