Employers added 130,000 jobs in January, topping expectations

[Fang]

Not to worry, democrats and their lying media will find a way to spin that.

I know right. LOL Which is why I linked to CNN as my source. They can't claim FoxNews right wing propaganda.

Trump Boom: America Added 130,000 Jobs in January—More Than Twice As Many As Expected

The U.S. economy added 130,000 jobs in January, more than twice as many as expected, and the unemployment rate fell to 4.3 percent, the Labor Department said Wednesday. | Economy

www.breitbart.com

The jobs growth came entirely from the private sector, which added 172,000 jobs. The federal government’s payrolls contracted by 34,000 while state and local government employment shrank by 8,000.

Construction added 33,000 in January and manufacturing employment climbed by 5,000. Durable goods manufacturing added 9,000 jobs and nondurables shrank by 4,000. The private sector’s services side added 136,000 jobs, primarily in the health and social services sector. Professional and business services added 34,000. Retail added 1,200 jobs.

This is why Trump private sector jobs are wealth creating. Bidens government funded jobs create debt inflation and we have to pay for them. This is how you fix the Biden disaster fake economy. Its all debt and borrowd money sucking the value out of our wages and sendng it to the government

It's gettin' better all the time ...

Thats literally 70,00 less than the BARE MINIMUM for the Obama administration and massively below Biden.

https://www.axios.com/2025/01/10/iden-job-gains-obama-trump

Obamas jobs were government and/or rebound after the 2009 crash.

Ditto for Biden after covid.

Trump is trying to bring back industries and private employment. It isnt easy, especially when you have a congress that build $30M in net worth over a few years and there arent consequences.

If the average American worker was making a nice salary of say, $150k a year and in 10 years time they were worth $30M, the police and/or IRS would be asking some questions, no?

A great jobs report and Democrats are more obsessed with the Epstein files.

More good news for America, and Trump.

More bad news for Democrats.

Ontario is collapsing thanks to the Creepy Ones.

Massive 15% increase in homeless people, especially seniors, massive increase in mortgages more than 120 days behind, long lines at food banks that even the working poor must activate.

Trump has focused on taking the auto industry and others from Ontario and it is working from what I can tell. We are working hard to grease the palms of some U.S politicians I imagine since we know your agencies will not care. Trump is the billionaire we cannot buy.

It has gotten adjusted after first monthly report under both administrations and other administrations, for that matter. I am sure Brett Matsumoto, the current head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, does not want to meet the same fate as Erika McEntarfer, when he did not like her statistics.

The figures are always adjusted. That's not the problem, the problem is when they lie for politics.

If they do it for Trump it's every bit as bad as when they did it for obummer and bribem.

Which, I have said from day one, is why they hated him. They KNEW he couldn't be bought like Obama, Biden, Clinton, etc.

Yes.

And thats why there are also SO many jobs available. More companies are firing Generation R and W (retarded and woke) right and left now.

But the problem of narcissism still stands, especially when it comes to companies hiring people over 40 for skillset jobs. Ageism is still a HUGE freeking problem.

Still 70,000 below Obama's minimum.

Still 70,000 below Obama's minimum.

Maybe. We know that the BLS was padding numbers for obummer.

 

[airplanemechanic]

Says alot when a massive jobs report garners a "laughing" reaction from a board dem.

Sorry that good news for the country is bad for your party.

 

[shockedcanadian]

Still 70,000 below Obama's minimum.

For the first time since Clinton (who I thought was a very good manager of the economy until he became weak on China at the end) estimates are they Trumps fed administration will be down significantly, 200,000-300,000 fewer federal government jobs in one year alone. That is MASSIVE.
Here are Clintons numbers after eight full years:

Not even Reagan cut the fed and he was a loud libertarian who had some of the most beautiful quotes on the need for small government out of the lives of citizens.

Trump needs to get their message out better. He should hire Vivek as a speaker or get JD to talk about these issues more. Vivek is a libertarian on economic issues as are a few more. If Trump does not want to do that he needs to speak more about these federal government cuts and expansion of private industry, winning back industries. Use ads, influencers, whatever. Private sector growth is critical for America as is bringing back industries.

 

[Fang]

Still 70,000 below Obama's minimum.

Obama has 87 months of unemployment rate greater than or equal to 5.0. Trump has only had 10 and that was due to COVID when the entire world was unemployed. You really want to do this?

True. But like you said, always adjusted. I wasn't big on trusting government numbers when first reported by them either and corrections came further into month or sometime end of quarter later. Similar can be said on inflation numbers.

Well, we found that the employment numbers for the Biden years were total lies.
The revision indicates that the labor market was not as robust in 2023–2024 as initial, preliminary, monthly reports had suggested, leading to accusations of inflated data from political opponents.

Unreliable Job Data from Biden-Harris Clouds Economic Picture

Even though 63% of Americans believe the economy is on the wrong track, media apologists for the Biden-Harris administration have hung their hat on a supposedly robust labor market propped up by deceptive statistics. Now, even that mirage is collapsing, and the economy may be going with it. The...

Enough gains in the private sector to produce job growth despite the hundreds of thousands of useless positions eliminated in the public sector.

Yep, this is what I voted for.

Never mind Bondi's comments about the Dow....

We still have a recession despite the stock market climbing to normalize the true inflationary price.

However....
For the truth concerning the economy....it is stabilizing from the free fall it had and the bottom is likely here.

Now, will the re-industrialization policy Trump is trying to implement work?

The tea leaves aren't reading that far into the future yet.

In order for things to improve....the US needs customers for its goods and services.

Currently tech firms are trying to sell AI.
And the ONLY customers are Wall Street investors. $20/month per seat for a product that is costing the company $200/month per seat to operate is not a successful business model.

Shipping rates are NOT up....not domestically or internationally. Import Container rates are still down however export rates are only up very modestly. Same with domestic freight. Still in recession territory....many of those trucks on the road are running LTL.

The truth is....if someone was getting rich they still order hot tubs for their new condo/house. (Requiring a truck) Hot tubs are not moving.

Kinda like Biden's Hundai plant for building EVs in GA.....hundreds of millions of tax and investor dollars spent....illegal aliens imported (trump deported)....no cars were produced, ordered, or sold....total waste.

So....where Fed and State government spending cuts are stopping the rampant inflation....they still are overspending and over taxing. (Some states and cities have increased both....and are experiencing business flight)

Maybe 2027 will be a better year. This one ain't gonna be so hot.
