So he issues an EO on day 1, touts it as a big success of reversing Trump policy and 3 years later we have a complete poop show and the Whitehouse claims that only the house can fix it.

As most everyone recognizes this as complete BS, he is now looking at EO's but they have to investigate it? BS.

I thought he was supposed to lie LESS than Trump.

For good amount of persons wages also have risen, which is part of Catch-22. Plus labor market is strong with US national unemployment rate at about 3.5%

In some states UI is so bad, due to lack of persons in labor market, employers are offering all sorts to get workers.

Gas prices are far lower than in recent past. Much of any increases have to do with things no POTUS can or could control; conflicts in Middle East, refinery shut downs for maintenance or other issues.

Too little, too late whatever it is! Also, he doesn't need executive action, as the laws are in place to take care of the problem. At the rate these people will produce anchor babies that we pay to deliver and raise, maybe they feel they are just about to meet their quota, especially if they are able to add more to the pile should Biden be PUT in the WH for 4 more years.

Doesn't anyone trust anything this lying piece of white trash says? They can't be too sharp if they do, but then again, they think Biden is "all there", which could not be further from the truth! The bar is very, very low for some Dems!

Your link didn't mention what kinds of jobs that there supposedly is a labor shortage in unless I missed it. If they are mostly low waged jobs of which I suspect then many of those businesses should just fold up a die. There are far too many of them in our economy.

Meanwhile, out of the other side of the mouth people complain about wage pressure on the poor.

Because HEY, nobody wants to do that job...so let's let in 7 million illegals that will work off the books for less, have no benefits, no complaints, won't unionize etc.

It's great if you are white collar and educated like me and my family....wheeee....we get stuff cheap and no wage pressure.

So, maybe consider the view of some minority in a city with a HS education trying to get by?

It is definitely good to see the UI back to where it was pre-Covid. With the employment drop after Covid, employees had the upper hand in demanding higher wages as employers were struggling to get people back to work. These are not new jobs, just jobs that needed to be refilled.

Gas is still too high.

Food is OUTRAGEOUS.

The border is a disaster and we will not see total effects of that for some time, we are already seeing some and many of the reports coming out of crime and drug ODs are not being reported on MSM (go figure). That doesn't even count the financial burden on the country and it's working citizens. This could have been taken control of a couple years ago but we had to flood the country first and then wait for an election year.

Paying student loans off is a joke and another election year punt.

Money to proxy wars is costly, which oddly weren't there prior to JB. Just keep printing money...the economy is great! (China and Russia love JB!)

I heard this morning that they are admitting that 7 Million Illegals have crossed over with claims of asylum but some think it could be as high as 14 Million! This does not include the up to 2 Million Got Aways.

7 Million is more than the population of over 30 individual States.


This is all about creating a future voting block for the Dems. Obama told us that he was going to fundamentally change this country and this is how the Left is going to do it.

Bingo!!!

The one election promise that Obama SHOULDN'T HAVE kept!!!!
