US Exceeds Expectations by Adding 147,000 Jobs in Early Summer
US Exceeds Expectations by Adding 147,000 Jobs in Early Summer

Turn on your television any night of the week and you’ll see them. The so-called “experts” sit in their fancy studios, wringing their hands and telling you why everything is on the verge of collapse. They shake their heads and warn that President Trump’s America First policies are a disaster.

For months, they’ve told us that tariffs would crash the market. They insisted that trimming the fat from the federal government would lead to ruin. They predicted nothing but doom and gloom. It almost seems like they want the country to fail, just so they can finally say they were right.

But as usual, the American economy had other plans. This month’s jobs report didn’t just miss the experts’ gloomy predictions—it blew them completely out of the water. The United States added a whopping 147,000 jobs in June, crushing the expected 110,000. Better yet, the unemployment rate fell again to 4.1 percent.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

This isn’t just spin; it’s a fact confirmed by the government’s own data. The report shows a healthy and resilient economy that continues to defy the professional complainers in the media.

From ‘The Post Millennial’:

The United States added 147,000 nonfarm payroll jobs in June, passing the expected 110,000 jobs added. The report comes as May also had an upward revision of its job numbers.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), “Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 147,000 in June, and the unemployment rate changed little at 4.1 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Job gains occurred in state government and health care. Federal government continued to lose jobs.”

More importantly, wages are going up. Average hourly earnings have increased by 3.7 percent over the last year. That’s more money in the pockets of hardworking families, and it’s a direct result of policies that put Americans first.

More Than Just Jobs: A Promise Kept

When you dig into the numbers, the news gets even better for conservatives. While the media focuses on the top-line number, they miss the real story. The report shows the federal government actually *cut* thousands of jobs. That isn’t a weakness; that’s President Trump keeping his promise to drain the swamp and shrink a bloated, wasteful bureaucracy.

Even the liberal media had to admit that Trump’s tough immigration policies are having an effect. They complain that a lower labor supply is constraining the economy. But for American citizens, that just means less competition from illegal workers for good-paying jobs. It’s a win for our workers and a win for the rule of law.

While the pundits in their ivory towers continue to predict failure, President Trump’s agenda is delivering real results. This jobs report is more than just numbers on a page. It’s proof that cutting the government, securing the border, and unleashing the power of the American worker is the formula for success.

Key Takeaways

  • The U.S. economy defied expert predictions by adding 147,000 jobs in June.
  • President Trump’s America First agenda continues to deliver real economic wins for citizens.
  • The shrinking federal workforce signals a major victory for limited government.
  • Strong immigration enforcement is helping protect good-paying jobs for American workers.
