The June jobs report was released late last week with a net gain of 206,000 jobs. The chart below shows the breakdown.

The June report showed the following revisions: The April jobs report was revised down from 165,000 to 108,000 ⬇ 35% The May jobs report was revised down from 272,000 to 218,000 ⬇ 20% What will the actual June number be when we get the August jobs report? 🤷♂️ https://lnkd.in/eGTtzZzh

303,000 new jobs created---really? FAKE NEWS AGAIN...what they don't tell you is that the Dept of Labor quietly makes "corrections" and walks back these over-blown and over-optimistic employment figures blowing smoke up the a--es of the citizenry...how many people do you know that have been "down-sized", laid-off, terminated, pink-slipped...how many mom-n-pop small biz have been driven out of biz by Biden administration inflation? think about it...massive jobs increase? but are these jobs created by govt contractors and NonGovOrgs serving'the millions of "undocumented" entering our country using "healthcare", "educational institutions", "housing" and the massive bureaucracy set up by the bloated BIDEN admin to service them? how much of these jobs are gig work? part-time, w no benefits? govt vs private sector? some analysis would be appreciated...don't just swallow the LIES.....SEE?
