Jobless Claims Surge To Highest Level in Nearly A Year, Ongoing Joblessness Hits Highest Since 2021. Thanks Joe and Kamala.

Well, we continue to see that the economy is still struggling. Again, Jobless claims have risen. And that’s been happening ever since Donald Trump left office. We have this from Breitbart.
