Number employed increases by 128,000 despite General Motors strikes
-----------------------------------------------
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) on Friday released its monthly Employment Situation Report (pdf), which showed continued employment growth and near record unemployment rates in October. Employment gains among African-American women and Latinos were particularly impressive.

The unemployment rate for African Americans reached a record low of 5.4 percent—a fall of 2.6 percent since President Trump took office.
The unemployment rate for black women reached just 4.4 percent, a reduction of 0.8 percent since July. However, unemployment for black males rose slightly from 5.8 to 5.9 percent, remaining close to its historic low from last month.
Another solid #JobsReport with annual wage growth staying above 3% and black jobless rate hitting best level on record! Great news… https://t.co/RY6EynWdrb

The White House pointed out that total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 128,000 jobs last month, far exceeding market expectations of about 75,000. In an interview with Fox News, however, economist and Director of the U.S. National Economic Council, Larry Kudlow, described the gains as a “blowout number.” He said that when the numbers were corrected to include an upward revision of 95,000 jobs for August and September, a decrease in unemployment of 60,000 due to the recent resolution of the GM strikes, and including 20,000 temporary employees finishing their work for the U.S. census, the true number of jobs created was in the region of 303,000.

They goin get uppity and leave the dem plantation.
And YES, I’m SURE if the dems could whip them and beat them into submission, they would.
They are and always have been the real racists.
Sadly, this won’t matter to black females who will vote less than 5% for Trump in 2020. The most one-sided voting group, by far, for the 2016 presidential election. All this with Hillary as the DEM candidate.
Trump’s fault. Hey yeah, it is!!!!!!
Unexpected
A majority of black people still denounce President Trump as a racist.
No one can claim anything racist in his policies. Just their BS about edited versions of Charlottesville, which was a setup. He said the statue destroying types had opponents who also had a right to acceptable viewpoints-—not that he loved the KKK. And not that he was glad a woman was killed by a maniac’s car. Slander.
How many of these citizens that was unemployed, living off of the welfare plantation, is going to vote for the Democrat?
The only racist people I know are 3 black females.
:)
Rs in the senate still worry me. Concerned about what deep state has on them.
I DO think Trump will be impeached.
And I think it will go nowhere in the senate and increase his popularity.
If not and Rs fold then it’s war and we go to the mattresses.
Does this mean because the founding and leadership of the KKK as well as the Dixiecrat anti-Civil Rights coalition for decades was all Dem, that we can label the Dems racists?
YES!
The angels are on the side of President Trump!
Godspeed President Trump!
I think any R senators who would fold would be afraid to be seen in public.
Amen to that.
And the LPR (labor participation rate)up to 63.3%.....The highest it’s been in 6+ years.
Remember when the mainstream press acted shocked when Trump said to black America: “what have you got to lose?” He can borrow Reagan’s question: “Are you better off than 4 years ago?” He could begin the return of black America to the Republican party.
If the Republicans are smart they will exploit this as much as they can. If Trump can get 15-20% of the black vote, the Dems. are dead.
I recognize the other 3 but can’t put my finger on who they are. Joe DiMaggio on the far left I think....the other 2?
Joe DiMaggio and Victor Borge, not sure of the woman.
Don’t tell anybody all that.
It’s a secret.
Imagine if Trump actually TOLD blacks that it was the dems?
Do many or even some of black KNOW it was the dems?
