+125,000 was expected.

1. That's Gotta Be Joe's Fault, Right?!!

[Johnny2X2X]

2. Joe Biden just had the greatest from 12 months economic start to a presidency in US history

Best jobs growth year in history. Best GDP growth in 40 years. Best year for wage growth in US history.

31. We had better advertise the hell out of this. Once-in-a-century political opportunity.

[Johnny2X2X]

32. It's been a truly remarkable recovery

After Obama's recovery was so slow and the media kept talking about how slow it was, you'd think they'd be all over the speed of this recovery, but they are in the bag for the oligarchs and the oligarchs hate Biden for helping regular people.

[Johnny2X2X]

3. November and December revised up substantially

November was +249,000 revised up to +647,000. December (the one the media panicked about) revised up from 199,000 to 510,000.

4. Had a feeling the numbers would

eff up the M$Greedia hacks who were hoping for bad numbers.
Get thee to the greatest page RFN!

[Johnny2X2X]

6. Yeah

Saw an article this week on Yahoo Finance that was titled something like, "Get ready for the economy to go in reverse with this next jobs report!" It was total gloom and doom and cheerleading for a halt to the Biden Boom.

I don't think it's hyperbole to call the last 12 months the best year the US economy has ever had. I wish the media would start acknowledging it's been an absolute boom the last year under Biden.

5. Wait . ... .

Wasn't corporate media about to pounce on bad employment news as well as bad UEs?

What happened? Oh that's right, the economy is recovering slowly. The relief of bottle neck at ports are also slowly recovering.

Inflation in my opinion is the cause of corporate greed by the millionaires/billionaires.

[Johnny2X2X]

10. Slowly?

This has been by far the fastest recovery in US history.

Dems need to take over the narrative, this is the best economy we've ever had, full stop.

[Bettie]

7. Next on all the news media: Why this is bad for Joe Biden

and the Democrats!

Jeez. Remember when every jobs report was revised down for TFG and it was still the most wonderful news for him ever?

I'm so f-ing tired of this.

[malaise]

8. Don't rule that out

9. A ran into an USAF vet I used to work with.

That he wasn’t wearing a mask at Wal-Mart was my first clue. We chatted a few minutes and vaccines are pointless, the economy sucks…. Bet he never hears any of this because you know it won’t be on FAUX.

33. My ex-wife

My ex-wife yesterday went off on Biden, saying he f’ked the middle class with his tax plan. I said I didn’t know what she was talking about, could she tell me more? She couldn’t. The depth of her knowledge was as stated, Biden f’ked the middle class. She confessed that she heard that on the fly from others (she doesn’t own a TV).

Somehow (hello Faux News) that anti-Biden meme got injected in the minds of low-information people, those who are easily roused by the likes of Trump to the point where a couple of thousand attacked the capital on January 6.

I educated her on the strengths of BBB, although I informed that it was killed by 2 ‘Democrats’ who happened to accept large sums of money from Republican donors. I’m sure it went in 1 ear and out the other since the facts didn’t fit her frame. It examples the decline of the United States into a flawed democracy. (On this point I think we were recently assessed as worse than a flawed democracy, I just don’t recall what it’s called.)

11. And the dow futures went negative

12. bad news for republicans

guess they will have to put the champagne back on ice.

[Johnny2X2X]

13. Joe Biden added as many jobs in his first 12 months as Trump did in his first 3 years!!!

Before Covid hit for Trump.

[vercetti2021]

14. That's awesome!

But how does this effect Biden and the Democrats?! It wasn't over 10000000000 jobs like we need! Dems in disarray! Divided party! Ahhhhhh!!!!! Every M$M headline

[Dave says]

34. Yup

[Doc Sportello]

15. More great news

Looks like Omicron will continue to decline, more of the Biden/Congressional agenda will pass, and the seditionist thugs will continue to be held accountable. All good news heading into November.

[Kingofalldems]

16. Kick and rec for concerned Trump fans.

[maxrandb]

17. Breaking News: "how this is good for Retrumplicans and bad for Dems" NT

[PCIntern]

18. That's pretty funny...

The WH pulled a prank on the media. They must be sputtering about now.

[malaise]

22. I love it

[Johnny2X2X]

19. Can you imagine if Biden had only the 2nd greatest economic year in US history instead of greatest?

The last year have been the greatest year in the 246 years of US history for job growth and wage growth. And it was the best year for growth in 40 years!

Can you imagine the piling on if this was only the 2nd or 3rd great 1 year period for the economy in US history?

[Dirty Heads]

20. Something is fishy with the revisions...

There have been so many monster revisions throughout 2021 that I'm wondering if the initial reports are purposely off to handicap the current administration. It just seems odd, especially since the Commissioner of the BLS is a Trump appointee...

[Johnny2X2X]

24. I think they're getting it right in the end

There are people who work tirelessly on this stuff, and there is transparency to get them right in the end. But it wouldn't surprise me f Trump put some lackey in the BLS that is trying to hurt Biden, but can only twist things for so long before it gets corrected.

25. Welcome to DU

Sabotage is everywhere

[Dirty Heads]

27. Thank you and agreed.

23. Best "failure" ever!

I wonder how the media is going to spin this one.

[Johnny2X2X]

26. UE rate ticked up by .1%!!!

3.9% to 4.0%, which is just noise, but I see that being part of the lead. Pathetic.

Again, best 12 month period for job growth in US history!!!

[malaise]

30. Before or after😄😄😄

[Johnny2X2X]

40. This needs to dominate the news all weekend

Best year for job growth in US history! That is a huge story!

[Johnny2X2X]

41. Gloom and doom all week on the Business websites

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/why-the-u-s-might-have-lost-jobs-for-the-first-time-in-more-than-a-year-11643910200?siteid=yhoof2

'Why the U.S. might have lost jobs for the first time in more than a year'

"As a result, economists polled by The Wall Street Journal estimate the U.S. added a scant 150,000 new jobs. If so, it would be the smallest increase in 13 months.

It could be even worse — a lot worse."

Just cheerleading for bad numbers.
