And...

Jobless claims fell last week even further to a new post-1969 record of 203,000.
This is the lowest level for initial claims for state unemployment benefits since December 6, 1969 when it was 202,000.

The 4-week moving average, considered a better gauge of the labor market because it smooths out week-to-week volatility, fell to 209,500 from 212,250. This is the lowest level for this average since December 6, 1969 when it was 204,500.

Jobless claims have been closely watched in recent weeks for signs that trade disputes might weigh on the jobs market. To the surprise of many economists and critics of the Trump administration, jobless claims show no signs of stress from tariffs that U.S. has put in place or retaliation from foreign countries.

First story is from 2017...what have YOU been doing since then that you missed it? 

Your second story...while indeed looking for the POTUS does cherry pick a bit:

Quote:Trump frequently cites Rasmussen polls because they consistently show him with a higher approval rating than other polling organizations. For example, the Real Clear Politics averagecurrently has Trump at 43 percent approval. But today's tracking poll from Rasmussen has the president at 49 percent. And while Trump has never topped 46 percent on the RCP average, Rasmussen has shown Trump with approval ratings as high as 59 percent. 


Fact check: The real scoop on Trump's poll numbers
More: Here are 10 times President Trump's comments have been called racist

But other polls have also shown an increase in support for Trump among African-Americans – albeit a more modest increase than Rasmussen found. 

An NAACP poll released on Aug. 7 found that Trump's approval rating was at 21 percent. And a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center in June found Trump's approval rating among blacks at 14 percent. 

Your third story is of a continuing trend over the last 4-6 years.

Yay!

Trump critics are under Rachel Maddow's spell then.
It's such a hard task not to throw these kinds of stereotypes to people from the right when in return, they are thrown out so easily... fairness is a two way street. I have no hope Hannity will tell you that.

I could label them a bit dull though.
I also label Rasmussen a Trump-friendly polling station.

Same thing happens in my country. I don't feel like thanking Trump for an international trend.

I heard trump's unemployment numbers are so low that even Colin Kaepernick got a job.

We can hear the crickets loud and clear because the Trumpets have mastered the ability to focus on clickbait stories while refusing to acknowledge anything meaningful.

Trump knows a lot of rubes will love him because he ran up the countries credit card to give them all some gifts.

US oil exports hit new records

U.S. oil exports reached new soaring heights in the first six months of 2018, with half of all exports going to Europe and Asia and India shoring up the rest, according to new data from the federal government.


U.S. crude oil exports saw an 80 percent increase in the first half of 2018 compared to the same period last year, according to the latest data and analysis issued Thursday by the Energy Information Administration.

That's an increase of 787,000 barrels per day, to set a new monthly record in June of 2.2 million barrels on average per day.

The largest recipients of U.S. oil were in Asia, with U.S. crude oil exports to China more than doubling in the first six months of the year. U.S. crude oil to China grew by 193,000 barrels per day compared to the first half of 2017.

But U.S. oil exports to other countries in the region also rose significantly. Exports to South Korea and India jumped 81,000 barrels per days and 72,000 barrels per day, respectively, from the previous year.

These are obviouls deeply biased sources. Wages, in general, are not raising that much. The trend goes to the top getting richer, but not the average worker.

Also, while I don't mind you not responding to me, I think it's quite cowardly to not respond to anyone at all in your own thread and just posting Beitbart articles instead. You behave like a paid GOP advertiser. Which is a bit thin.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 48% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance.

On September 7, 2010, Obama's numbers were 45% approve, 55% disapprove.

Quote:WASHINGTON—U.S. President Donald Trump has broken his own dishonesty record for the third consecutive month.
Trump made 321 false claims in August. That shattered his previous record of 280, in July, which had beaten his previous record of 268, in June.

Trump’s wildly dishonest August was capped by an 83-false-claim week that began Monday, Aug. 27. (The week continued into early September, but 82 of the claims came in August.)
The week was the fourth-most-dishonest week of his presidency. All four of these weeks have come in the last three months.
Trump is now up to 2,519 false claims for the first 591 days of his presidency, an average of 4.3 per day.

If Trump is a serial liar, why call this a list of “false claims,” not lies? Click here for our detailed explanation. The short answer is that we can’t be sure that each and every one was intentional. In some cases, he may have been confused or ignorant. What we know, objectively, is that he was not telling the truth.

Full list is at the link if you have the time....

President Trump to Name Climate Skeptic as Tech Adviser; Greenie Heads Explode

President Trump is ready to announce Princeton physicist and leading climate skeptic Will Happer as his senior tech adviser.


According to CNN:

William Happer, a Princeton atomic physicist and prominent skeptic questioning whether humans are causing rapid climate change, is joining the National Security Council as senior director for emerging technologies, according to NSC officials.

Happer, 79, is an emeritus professor of physics at Princeton who served in the Department of Energy under President George H.W. Bush in the early 1990s. He did not respond to CNN’s requests for comment.

This will be both a tremendously sensible appointment and a superb piece of trolling by the president.
