The United States economy blew away prior predictions by most economists for July's job report as today's number came in at 528,000 jobs created.

The new data shows that it doubled what most economists were predicting, which is great for the American worker.

Right-wing media was forced to admit the report was massive, yet they still managed to try to throw cold water over the incredible report as best they could, by fearmongering the Federal Reserve.

This report shows that US jobs are back to pre-pandemic levels.

On Fox News, Dana Perino introduced Maria Bartiromo. As usual, Maria cannot fully embrace any good news on the economy, since a Democrat is in the White house right now.

"First the headline here. This is a blockbuster report. This is much higher than anybody was expecting. 528,000 created in the month of July is more than double the expectations..."

"All areas of the economy actually saw job growth, including leisure, hospitality, the services industry, the industrial industry, that's all good news, " she said.

"This ensures we are going to see a federal reserve that stays as aggressive as ever," she bemoaned.

Rick Santelli, one of the pimps for the white, evangelical Tea Party revolt against President Obama, was up on CNBC when the news broke.

“And here we are waiting for the big July jobs numbers. And it is a whopper!” Santelli exclaimed. “528,000! 528,000, basically double the expectations! And 528,000 is the best number since February when we were over 700,000, revisions to the last two months are 28,000," Santelli said.

Stuart Varney of Fox Business said, "President Biden keeps saying the strong job market shows were not in a recession. The news this morning is that the jobs market remains strong. new jobs a whopping 528K. That's way above any of the economists' predictions. "

If Trump were in office and received a report like this, all these creeps will be dancing to YMCA and singing it was the greatest jobs report of all-time.

Nice try jerks.
