Why the Shockingly Good Jobs Report Is Going to Cost You

CNN huge headline on their homepage. Have they ever reported on Biden's economic successes without twisting it immediately to something negative? I haven't seen it.

If cheato had these numbers they would never present them as a negative. They aren't even pretending anymore.

My voice is obviously pretty inconsequential, but everyone really needs to be aware and try to stand up to them. That's my opinion, anyway. I did not do this in 2016 (basically tuned out of the biased coverage against Hillary for my own mental health) and look what happened. I'm probably headed in that direction again though because it's obviously out of our control.

They are so hurt by inflation that they only have a shit ton of money still. I can't watch anymore. They insult our intelligence.
