Biden Summons the Press to "Friendly Chats" Where He Can Instruct Them Where Their Reportage Is Wrong and How to Report Better on His Successes

Awesome.

Via Semafor:


President Joe Biden's re-election campaign has begun organizing a series of off-the-record trips for top political reporters and editors to the team's headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware and meet top officials, including the campaign manager, deputies, and other senior advisors for background briefings on campaign strategy.

They're also using it as an opportunity to tell them what they're getting wrong. Two people with knowledge of the situation told Semafor that during meetings with reporters from outlets like The New York Times, the Washington Post, and others, campaign officials have invoked a coverage spreadsheet laying out areas where the team believes their reporting has fallen short.

In particular, campaign officials have chafed at some of the coverage of former President Donald Trump, feeling that outlets are too focused on his legal troubles and haven't paid enough attention to some of his incendiary recent statements on the campaign trail. A source familiar told Semafor that with the exception of its recent meeting with the Times, the campaign meetings had been "substantive" and "productive," and that Biden staffers were scheduled to meet in the coming days with political reporting teams from ABC, NBC, The Wall Street Journal, Fox, NPR, Reuters, Bloomberg, and others in Wilmington.

Speaking of massaging reports to boost Biden: the national recorded 439,000 fake phantom jobs as jobs created by Biden over the past year.


There's something wrong with previous U.S. jobs reports.

The government quietly erased 439,000 jobs through November 2023, a closer look at the numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows.

That means its initial jobs results were inflated by 439,000 positions, and the job market is not as healthy as the government suggests.

Since the government wiped out 439,000 jobs after the fact, the total percentage of jobs created by the government last year is even higher. Increased government hiring has been driving the jobs numbers higher.

...

"Time to stop trading off the payroll data," tweeted David Rosenberg, founder of Rosenberg Research Associates. By his calculations, he says the downward revisions came to "an epic 443,000," adding, "more than 40% of payroll growth in 2023" came from "the fairy tale 'Birth-Death' model" the BLS uses to "guesstimate" its jobs reports.

Again, the government sector in December ranked high in job creation. It created 52,000 jobs in the final month of 2023. As FOX Business's Edward Lawrence points out, that brings the three-month average of jobs created by the government sector to 50,000 per month. Lawrence says Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su "would not answer if this is sustainable when I pressed her."

Well at least you get in honest. No disrespect intended to you specifically. Just a very annoying fan base in general.

Funny story -- my son visited Ohio State and Kentucky for university tours. Thankfully, he chose Kentucky instead of that cult in Columbus. Anyway, Ohio State gave the prospective students a bag of stuff, among it was a coupon for 21% off at the school bookstore. When someone asked why 21%, the tour guide said "because Michigan gives 20% off coupons". Had to admit, that was pretty funny.

Breaking News: The Alaska Airline plane who's door blew off at 16,000 feet was under a special flight restriction where it wasn't allowed to fly over water because officials knew about the problem.

This aircraft was scheduled to fix the problem but the door blew out before the maintenance day.

The FAA knew about this problem and didn't ground the planes until they were repaired but limited their travel distance instead.

Posted by: Romeo13 at January

The way the unemployment rate is calculated is idiotic. You have to be actively looking for work to count as unemployed. Jose who just rolled into NYC isn’t looking for a job, he’s at the welfare office getting the freebies. Therefore he is not officially unemployed. Same goes for the welfare queens who have never worked a day in their lives.

If you are not reporting to the unemployment office for your unemployment check you do not count as 'unemployed'. If you haven't worked (legally) then you have no credit to receive unemployment for.

They go straight to welfare.

Glenn Beck and a film crew were @ Colony Ridge a week or two ago interviewing various people -- including the guy who's running it (who's given something like $4 million dollars to Abbott the Boneless, the latter not returning any of his requests for an interview).

Beck thinks this is going to be the model for rapidly turning the country into a shithole, starting with Texas -- where they will eventually achieve their dream of "blue" via illegal immigration.

This could actually be true at any given moment.

People do not understand how many different amnesties there were after the 86 one, there was another one under pappy Bush, then two under Clinton, all with different schemes and mechanisms and pathways to make them citizens.

Right now if the numbers hold, by January 20th 2025, there will have been roughly 16 million illegals.

That's a lot cabbage pickers.

152 From the last post (sort of):

It's been interesting watching the activist press and their followers switch from blaming charges of plagiarism against Claudine Gay on Chris Rufo to Bill Ackman.

The New York Post contacted Harvard about Gay's plagiarism on Oct 24, and Harvard threatened to sue them. Chris Rufo posted a tweet about her plagiarism on Dec. 10, after the 3 weird sisters testified to Congress.

I don't know when Bill Ackman first reported the plagiarism angle. But the press decided to put his wife, who had never mentioned it, through the Maoist struggle session.
