Lowest Jobless Claims Rate Since 1969

Yet another accomplishment for the Biden Administration.   The lowest rate of unemployment claims since 1969 is now part of the record.  

US Jobless Claims Fall to Lowest Level Since 1969

And a record monthly budget surplus, not deficit, imagine that. 

Tax Revenue Boom Fuels Steep Budget Deficit Decline

That's just this week's news.  Mainstream media has, in some cases, given this reasonable coverage.  And giving credit where credit is due, they have done well in their coverage of the Uvalde shooting and its aftermath.  It is unfortunate that we are getting to know those 19 children and two teachers because of the manner in which they died, but their memory is being honored.  

The response that the people of Uvalde got from the President was, "We will do something."  The response they got from the governor of Texas was nothing.  

It's Not Just the Status Quo for the Biden Administration

I was listening to South Carolina Congressman James Clyburn on the Sunday Show today, and this gives me confidence that the Democrats do indeed know exactly where things stand and they also know where the messaging needs to be.  The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart is, in my opinion, the best of the Sunday political shows anywhere on  television.  Capehart called Representative Clyburn "politically brilliant," which agrees with my personal assessment of him and Clyburn spends about five minutes putting things into clear perspective, including declaring that the Biden administration not only knows what has to be done to get things in order, but in his words, "he will."  

It's worth the time to watch it.  It's one link in the video menu here:

I believe it, too.
