Jobs report? The Biden-Harris crew have a long history of juicing them to look good, only to admit the real, much lower numbers several months later. Since it is election time, that is even more likely to have happened this time. Wait a few months to get the real numbers!

There are two other things that do come out in the Biden-Harris numbers. Mosr of the new jobs are part time, not full time, and most of the increase is for illegal aliens, not American citizens.

Major foreign bank analsyts have predicted that Harris' tax policies would crush the American economy. But that is likely exactly what the left wants.

As to "hate", I have never seen more of it in one place than at this year's Dmeocrat National Convention.

Just isn’t true. The economy is doing very well. Read the jobs report. Don’t fall for MAGA lies.

MAGA- they hate everyone

Just cant support politicians that think they are above us mere mortals. Pretty arrogant my friend. Not to mention laughable.

MAGA - built on a house of cards

I am with that Alabama senator. Mayorkas and probably others need to be jailed for wasting the emergency response money on the illegal aliens. Lock them up!

Big Bob: And, you saying that all politicians lie because you support only lying politicians, as a Democratic Socialist Warrior, is far more "disingenuous and Childish," and I include pathetic than any statement of fact that I might retort.

You make these bold statements, as someone that only supports "lying politicians" to represent them, and then, you make NO statements of fact to support your conclusion when confronted to do so.

So, I ask Big Bob: Who is acting "disingenuous and Childish" here?

American jobs are threatened by the Biden-Harris illegal immigration. Under Biden-Harris, most new jobs created have been for illegal aliens, while the number of US citizens working has actually declined. We need Trump back in as our deporter in chief.

FEMA has pre-staged for every major hurricane for decades but not for this one. The Republican governors of Florida and Georgia pre-staged. Florida, even though hit hard itself, got personnel to North Carolina's mountains to help a couple of days before FEMA did.

Republican legislators from all over the state, including from the east like Rep. Kidwell and Sen. Hanig have been up helping out in the mountains, but few, if any of their Democrat counterparts have. Indeed Mark Robinson took off from the campaign trail to go help out, something Roy Cooper and Josh Stein have not.

Better to show up, throw some paper towels at people, and leave. Everyone knows thats how you handle a disaster!

Stan, all humans lie. The " i'm perfect act" is disingenuous and childish.

If FEMA has money then why did Mayorkas say it did not? Isn't that a bit weird?

If FEMA had money and was competently led, why did they not pre-stage supplies, equipment, and personnel like FEMA always has in the past for major storms? The Republican governors of Florida and Georgia did that pre-staging and it made for great storm response in those states. In fact, help from hard hit Florida in the form of Florida National Guard and rescue teams arrived in western North Carolina to help us before FEMA did.

And there you go falsely playing the race card again. Illegal aliens are of many races, including white. What sets them apart is not race but the fact that they are foreigners who do not belong in our country. Legal immigrants are also of many races, but have been vetted and approved. There is a massive difference. Taxpayers should not be subsidiZing lawbreaking by illegal aliens.

Hurricane Helene shows how Democrats cannot govern. North Carolina Democrat Roy Cooper was like FEMA and did not pre-stage for the response. It was the Republican governors who had their acts together in a robust response.

A generous benefits and welfare nation cannot endure for long, with open borders.
