Black Unemployment Rate Falls to Record Low to 6.8%

MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN FOR BLACKS AND JOBS …

As reported at CNBC, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that black workers had a 6.8 percent unemployment rate in December, the lowest in the 45 years the data has been tracked. This is HUGE!!! When President Donald Trump said he was going to “Make America Great Again,” he meant it for all Americans. The economy is now benefiting all Americans, including blacks. This is the Democrats worst nightmare. Who can blacks thank for this lowest ever unemployment? Donald Trump of course. It was not Barack Obama who created jobs for blacks, Obama actually failed blacks. It is actually Trump who will be better for blacks. Liberals and Democrats heads are spinning. Now the real question is, will blacks reward Trump for his amazing job in the 2020 elections? In 2016 Trump got 8% of the black vote,which was up from 2012 and 2008. If Trump gets double digit black votes, Democrats will lose their lock on this demographic forever.

Hat Making America GreAT again

Unemployment among black workers is at its lowest since at least the early 1970s, when the government began tracking the data.

The black unemployment rate of 6.8 percent in December was the lowest since the Bureau of Labor Statistics started tracking it in 1972, a year in which the rate ranged from 11.2 percent to 9.4 percent. In the 45 years the data has been tracked, the unemployment rate for black or African-American workers aged 16 years and older has never fallen below 7 percent.

With all the negative race-baiting by the LEFT, Democrats and the media and hateful rhetoric against Donald Trump, who is it that has been putting them back to work?

The Dow Jones industrial average broke above 25,000 for the first time on Thursday, tying the fastest 1,000-point move in its history, following the release of stronger-than-expected jobs data.

“The Dow hitting 25,000 was a pretty wild idea even a year ago. And while its symbolically important, the real story is never just a number. It’s the underlying strength that is pushing markets this high,” said Steve Claussen, vice president of trader strategy at ETRADE.

jobs increase

Private sector job creation surged in December as a strong holiday shopping season pushed companies to hire more workers, according to a report Thursday from ADP and Moody’s Analytics.

Companies hired 250,000 new workers to close out the year, well above Wall Street expectations of 190,000. The month was the best for job creation since March and topped the 185,000 in November, a number that was revised lower by 5,000.

The total brought 2017′s private payroll growth as gauged by ADP and Moody’s to 2.54 million, an average of 212,000 a month.

Job growth was broad-based, as professional and business services led the way with 72,000 new positions. The education and health services sector was next at 50,000 and trade, transportation and utilities contributed 45,000. Wall Street-related payrolls grew by 19,000.

The information services sector was the only one to lose jobs, reporting a drop of 4,000.

By size, businesses with between 50 and 499 employees added 100,000 jobs while small firms hired 94,000 and large companies contributed 56,000 to the total.

“The job market ended the year strongly,” Mark Zandi, Moody’s chief economist said in a statement. “Robust Christmas sales prompted retailers and delivery services to add to their payrolls. The tight labor market will get even tighter, raising the specter that it will overheat.”

Overall, service-related companies were responsible for the balance of jobs, with 222,000 new hires. Goods-producing industries added the rest, with construction growing by 16,000 and manufacturing by 9,000.

Santa Trump

Despite thousands of store closings this year, Americans supplied a final flurry of spending to give retailers their best holiday season sales since 2011, figures released Tuesday show.

U.S. year-end holiday retail sales rose 4.9% compared to the same period last year, a welcome gift to U.S. retailers amid new signs of consumer confidence.

Online retail shopping similarly increased 18.1%, while overall consumer buying during the holiday period set a new record for dollars spent, according to the sales report issued by Mastercard SpendingPulse.

“Overall, this year was a big win for retail,” Sarah Quinlan, senior vice president of Market Insights, Mastercard, said in a statement issued with the report. “The strong U.S. economy was a contributing factor, but we also have to recognize that retailers who tried new strategies to engage holiday shoppers were the beneficiaries of this sales increase.”

Although the report showed the 2017 holiday shopping season from Nov. 1 to Dec. 24 was a winner for all retailers, the results differed by category. Retailers that succeeded tapped into:

FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe to Retire from the FBI in coming Months & Get Full Pension (VIDEO)

RETIRE? HE NEEDS TO BE FIRED AND PROSECUTED!!!

As reported at The Hill, FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is planning to retire in the coming months amid accusations from Republicans of partisanship and bias within the law enforcement agency. WHAT? This corrupt SOB needs to be fired prior to being fully eligible for any pension. Then he needs to be prosecuted and thrown in prison for his part in trying to alter an election. Of course his decision to retire has nothing to do with the fact that McCabe sat before three congressional committees this week, where he faced questions about his conduct and the FBI’s handling of the investigations. DRAIN THE SWAMP, FIRE THIS GUY AND INDITE HIM!!! As reported at The Daily Caller, McCabe’s departure comes days after The Post reported that FBI general counsel Jim Baker will be reassigned.

THE COLLUSION WAS BETWEEN THE FBI & DOJ TO PREVENT TRUMP FROM BEING PRESIDENT!!!

FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is planning to retire in the coming months amid accusations from Republicans of partisanship and bias within the law enforcement agency.

The Washington Post reported Saturday that McCabe plans to step down in a few months, when he is fully eligible for pension benefits. That is expected to happen in early March.

McCabe has weathered GOP criticism of the FBI for over a year, with Republicans questioning the agency’s handling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and, more recently, the probe into possible collusion between President Trump’s campaign and Russia.

The deputy director faced particular criticism after it was revealed that his wife, who ran for Virginia state Senate in 2015, received hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations from a political action committee led by Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a Democrat with close ties to the Clintons.
