Lots of news to cover. So let's dive into it. There's a lot of news over the weekend, including a jobs report. What was the jobs report this morning, Andrew?
Andrew 1:20
Well, the jobs report beat expectations. I think Stephen Moore put it really well, where this was over 400,000 actual new jobs, people being employed over 400,000. Jobs report will say 177,000. That beat Wall Street expectations, which had it around 130,000. But non-farm... Payroll went through the roof. We're seeing a lot of manufacturing get reshored. So the the changes that President Trump is making in the economy, namely through tariffs, tax incentives, regulatory incentives, they're already showing signs that those are working. Stock market took off like a rocket this morning. And actually, what's interesting, two weeks ago, Charlie, everybody was saying the sky is falling. The sky is falling. We got a recession is imminent.
Andrew 2:04
And here we are about two weeks later. The stock market's up twenty eight hundred points. And counting, and you have a lot of these changes that are being implemented in the economy already taking effect.
Charlie Kirk 2:18
486. Let's play cut 486.
Unidentified 2:23
436,000 increase in the number of people who are employed. So this is an amazing report. The number of people, the labor force participation rate rose. So this is a really strong number. I wanted to mention one other quick thing. You know, about two weeks ago, Every headline, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Washington Post, was, oh, the stock market is crashing. And since then, the market has been up, what, like 2,800 points. Yeah, well, you don't see that headline. And by the way, I don't see headlines about that. That was the point that Scott Besson made.
Charlie Kirk 2:57
Well, it's important to note, too, that the stock market is not the economy. The stock market can react to jitters and news. The economy is growing incredibly strong and is only going to grow stronger with the tax cut that we see coming and deregulation. Let's go to CNBC. Let's play cut 483.
Unidentified 3:12
The job, job, jobs report for April hitting the wires, non-farm payrolls, a greater 177,000. We're expecting, as Joe pointed out, 133,000. 177,000 would be the second best of the year outside of what's in the rearview mirror.
Charlie Kirk 3:31
Now, you have to wonder, are the Democrats happy about this? I mean, they're the ones saying that the recession is – are they thrilled that the American economy is doing better and is actually only going to further improve? You see, the prediction was that by now we would have major job losses. We have the tariffs. They said by the summer we're going to see major drop-offs. But this jobs report has exceeded expectations.
Andrew 3:48
Well, yeah, this just reminds me of just about every other – chapter of president trump's political career where the elites and the experts tell us he's doing it wrong only to find out in the end that he's doing it right that his instincts have been right all along now he's not right about everything listen we're free to disagree with president trump but i i time and time again whether it's foreign policy energy policy tariffs president trump has has an instinct for these things he's a businessman he's seen it up close and personal but
