June Jobs Report, July 8, 2022: 372,000 - beats expectations (per YahooFinance)
Unemployment rate: 3.6%
-cnbc.com
It's hard to sell the notion we're in a recession with an unemployment rate at 3.6%.
you gave soxy the board for chrissake - That would be news to SoxFan.
the problem is that you don't trust me - Why would you say that? I don't always like your language, but otherwise you're fine.
LOL! - post FACTS and you'll be fine.
Congratulations to SoxFan, the Board's new Mod!
Thanks - you've always been a class act.
Job Opening - Moderator: Lee Kramer's Room with Views.
From the "law and order" party, Republican Sen Lindsey Graham said he will fight the legal subpoena from Fulton County, Georgia.
This Board requires links from credible sources to statements.
When did the SS "prove" anything under oath?
Rule here: attack the message, not the messenger.
Was Lindsey Graham so desperate to please TFG that he made two phone calls to Georgia authorities?
Beware of anyone who wears religion on their sleeve.
What goes around comes around.
Yes, an alert policeman spotted the car/license plate number - I'm glad that coward was taken alive.
Indeed.
From the coverage I have seen, Highland Park officials have been very professional with regard to keeping the public informed vs. the officials in Texas after the mass murder of school children.
You are not alone. To try discussing issues with many right wingers who get their "news" from FOX, etc. is batting your head against the wall.
"she lied" - To point out that Ms. Hutchinson testified under oath would make no difference to right wingers - they believe whatever the right-wing media says.
GALLOP POLL
In U.S., Record-Low 47% Extremely Proud to Be Americans
-First time below majority level
-Sharp declines since 2017 among liberals and Democrats
-High point was 70% in 2003
Washington, D.C. - This Fourth of July marks a low point for U.S. patriotism. For the first time in Gallop's history of asking U.S. adults how proud they are to be Americans, fewer than a majority say they are "extremely proud". Currently, 47% describe themselves this way, down from 51% in 2017 and well below the peak of 70% in 2003.

"might" ?
anyone listed on the Sexual Crime Register is very limited as to what jobs they can have - That's only if a company checks on those who apply.
This is only one example of a company desperate for help who probably didn't check the sex crime registry.
No - it's not a crime to proselytize. And apparently this company's policy is to hire whoever shows up at their door - the last thing I need is for a wacko "holy guy" to look me up if he loses his job.
A word to the wise...
If you list your property for sale and engage a pest control company to issue a Certificate (mandatory in VA), check on the person the pest control company sends out.
This week I had such an inspection, and when finished the inspector launched into a religious diatribe, including complaints his former wife prevents him from seeing their 2 children. I finally ended the conversation.
With his full name, I was able to search him online and learned this guy has a long history of criminal infractions, including he is listed on the sex crime registry.
Apparently with a shortage of people to hire, some companies take anyone to fill low-paid jobs.

Amazing! - only one Repub candidate knows what's going on.
Nice. This afternoon I paid $4.67/gal reg in VA - price continues to go down.
Planning to drive in Virginia? Be prepared to pay more at the pump - as of July 1, 2022, the gas tax goes up to 28 cents a gallon from 26.2 cents a gallon.
Oh, and that decrease in grocery food tax Youngkin promised in his 2021 campaign for governor? - that doesn't go into effect until January 1, 2023.
Not a "stupid comment" - it's an accurate comment.
I guess McConnell is only interested in power and not working in the Senate to help America - what a shock!!
The only thing Trump united is the Dem party to defeat EVERY Repub candidate, oh and he united the crazies who take SS and Medicare and yet hate the U.S. gov't.
Are his views left, right or even with say- DeSantis - Youngkin's views are whatever audience he is speaking to.
No, he is not. It was evident during his campaign for gov, Youngkin's REAL goal was the Oval Office.
In the past the Wash Examiner found excuse after excuse for TFG's behavior - now they finally have had enough!
YOUNGKIN MEETS WITH MEGADONORS AMID HINTS HE 'S MULLING WHITE HOUSE BID
June 29, 2022 at 7:30 PM EDT
Youngkin, a multimillionaire and former private equity executive, used to respond that he is totally focused on his new job in Virginia. More recently, he has begun saying he is "humbled" that so many people "request" that he run.

TRUMP PROVEN UNFIT FOR POWER AGAIN
by Washington Examiner
June 29, 2022, 12:01 AM
Trump is a disgrace. Republicans have far better options to lead the party in 2024. No one should think otherwise, much less support him, ever again.

How the hell did Walker get 44% - are there that many dumb people in Georgia?
I'm moving tomorrow - I hope Tuesday's hearing will be replayed on C-SPAN tomorrow night.
