President Biden is slated to appear Friday in the White House Rose Garden to comment on the August jobs report, which generally showed a steady labor market.
Unemployment, which was expected to hover at July’s 3.5 percent, inched up to 3.8 percent according to the data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The report beat expectations with 187,000 jobs added, a number equal to July’s total. The total percentage of people employed or looking for work rose 0.2 percent after several months without much change.
Biden is tying much of his case for reelection to public perception of a healthy economy, which will likely depend on jobs numbers as well as inflation. Consumer price hikes have generally abated since the Fed began raising interest rates in 2022, although recent reports have shown small upticks.
The president is scheduled to speak at 11:15 a.m. EDT.

Does The Hill get paid by the Biden Administration or are the economic mental midgets? Could be both.
No thanks. I feel stupider after hearing him “talk”
Watch live-—no thanks. I’m sure he’ll state everything is great, Republicans are racists and climate change is killing people unless you send more money.
If you’re voting for Trump you ain’t black!
If it’s actually Biden, would it surprise anyone they have found an imposter to bring out for selected maximum effect occasions?
The sHill.
No thanks, I’ll wait for the comedy clips to come out.
Trump cut stupid regulations so jobs could flourish. Biden and his goons weren’t smart enough to undo that like they did ‘the wall’ and other Trump successes. So now we have more jobs... AND President Sniffer is taking credit.
Two more weeks until the corporate and personal real estate tax deadline - Sept. 15th.
He always has "comments" or "statements" or "remarks" - ALL written for him.
Notice he never holds a press conference...imagine if Trump never held one, the media would explode.
Biden only reads what is put in front of him. He does not actually comprehend what he is reading.
It's scary when the President is so cognitively impaired he is incapable of taking questions. Th media should be outraged
Job numbers mean squat to people who go to the grocery store, buy gas, buy school supplies. You can have a job, you can have two jobs, and still can’t afford to pay your bills.
“would it surprise anyone they have found an imposter”
I would hope so—there has been enough elder abuse on display in DC these days!
This may be our first AI president—no need for a real human if you are just going to spout leftist talking points....
It could not have been the real Biden—no children were molested on-stage.
;-)
Shouldn’t the 7 Million plus Illegal Alien criminal invaders be added to the Unemployment number???
