Participating???? Hilarious. THERE ARE NO JOBS!

"These good numbers are actually really bad."

Rich Burroughs33

Ummm is that not a headline number for a jobs report, the number of people who have jobs? I am just a small town bird lawyer.

Nothing special30

Can’t really polish that turd

Gerald Glenn Saenz 🇺🇦28

Participating? Yes. And I have also decided to participate in feeding and housing myself.

knightsmom.bsky.social22

Can we trust that their numbers are accurate? Call me crazy but I’m skeptical of any data this admin releases.

When the truth slips out...

Saint Sherman - The Ultimate Patriot17

The real numbers are much worse.

Brian 3215

So for some reason people are accepting these numbers as honest from the most dishonest administration in history?

Nancy Ann ❌👑 👍🏻🐸14

“Participating in the labor market” translation: lost their jobs.

mmichaelmm.bsky.social13

Fewer people are participating? Did they have a choice?

Blue Kentucky Gal9

"Definitely good headline numbers, BUT..." These people don't realize words have actual meanings. Reminds me of putting lipstick on a pig.

happilyblue1031.bsky.social9

Just saying unemployment is up.

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister8

The Trump Regime keeps losing jobs

"The numbers are good, except for the part with the numbers." They twist their tongues into knots trying to spin this shit economy.

Note: a significant % of people watch with the volume on mute. The headlines shown on the screen are what people consume. So, the "115k jobs added" (when the actual number is 226k loss) shown by Fox is evidence of why their broadcast licence should be suspended whenever Democrats reform government.

I remember when Obama would post 115,000 jobs and the sentiment was, it's not keeping up with the people entering the workforce. Today, it's amazing numbers because it beat the low expectations.

Cindi Lew Hoo 🇺🇦🇨🇦🇺🇦7

Never trust the headline numbers without checking with the experts...

realsandy5

Participating in the labor market. 🙄 I wish she wasn't.

Courtney 🦊5

Fewer people are participating?!? wtf kind of line is that? You mean there are 226,000 less jobs available for people to participate in the workforce? 🫠

The WEBBIX5

Such a meandering, confused comment to report a simple fact… Job numbers are down. Period. I’d add that neither Biden nor Obama is in office. Further, Republicans control both chambers of Congress. These facts will not deter the GOP shills from shifting blame, however.

I seem to recall people losing their jobs at the Bureau of Labor statistics. There was lots of hand wringing about trusting these stats going forward. Did I dream all that? Anyways, “Definitely good headline numbers…”

Michael Citro4

That is definitely one way to say unemployment is up and more people are out of work. Not the clearest way, but it's a way.

Cryptic Nomad4

But the NY Times said the number was solid?

yovino.bsky.social4

And of course, while he’s giving the Fox morons some sobering numbers, they take him off camera and show the rising stock prices, which don’t benefit most of the population. Certainly not the crowd that watches Fox. And, as always, the stock market is not the economy. The manipulation is incredible.

John Shea 🍀4

What happened to America 🇺🇸 first?

Leo - Kaito4

Wow that is a surprise... Blaming Biden incoming

autumnsky14.bsky.social3

I do not believe anything this administration says. The job market is horrible I know because I’ve been looking for work the last six months. I’m on social security and looking for work just so I can live it’s hard. So just think about those who are not collecting unemployment they will not be

klb725.bsky.social3

funny how they frame it in a way where its the workers fault.

julesp1.bsky.social3

Like working is optional? Ha

Democratic Free Press2

They lied about jobs #s before

Democracy Matters2

IDK, could that be from the forced consumption of AI every time we turn around? Or is it the tech CEOs firing thousands of employees while throwing lavish parties?

Serendipity2

So this makes no sense? They are deporting they say 1000 up to 1300 people a day where are those jobs? Why is unemployment at 4.8%

Ally Mac2

A word salad to put a dress on a turd !!

sonny1471.bsky.social2

I don’t believe a single data point that comes from this cult.

The Cassandra Files (I told you so)2

Millions have been deported or sent to death camps.

Boulder Voter Rob5

They lie about the numbers on page one, then revise the numbers on page 12. Every jobs report or financial report they say is good gets revised a month or two later proving it was bad all along.

Luigi -the Pizza Prime Minister2

They will applaud at job losses as long as they're in power They're whiny brats when they're not

🟨Richard Mustang42 🇺🇸🇬🇷🇺🇦2

All a Facade nothing is true anymore. Our Government is not to be trusted.

AZ Alison2

Seems like the report was just meant as a market manipulation, again.

The revisions are the root system — ignore them and you're just admiring the leaves without knowing if the plant is healthy

T-Fish🇨🇦🍁2

Job losses only affect them if they lose their jobs. They only care when things this administration does personally affects them. Even though all this shit eventually will affect them in all aspects of their lives

YvetteJR718☮️💙♋️ ♎️❌2

Why would anyone BELIEVE the NUMBERS coming out of this White House about ANYTHING? Seriously. They lie like most of us BREATHE. 🙄😜🤦‍♀️

The Best Posts, Maybe, That Anyone's Ever Seen, Ever13

Uh huh. I heard gas prices are coming down too.

staatenlos.bsky.social7

Until it is revised in two months, sure.

fr0sted.bsky.social7

I don't believe this at all. Look at the purchasing and debt data.

Okhomegrown4

More jobs that don’t pay enough to live.

Get up, stand up3

That new chief is doing a good job cooking the numbers. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Kerosene3

Howard Lutnick is in charge of the agency that reports these numbers.

Paul Arzooman2

Funny how I don't trust any numbers coming out of this administration. None.

Mike Castoro2

I think just the layoffs in the tech and game dev sectors have something to say about that
