An Additional 1.3 Million Americans File For Unemployment Amid Coronavirus | Hallie Jackson | MSNBC
How is this “Making America Great Again”? 🤔
@Janet Crawford: There is an entertainment business saying, America kills its stars.
@The Tweatles: Masks are lying on sidewalks, entrances and exits, and are blowing in the wind around here, but I don’t wear one. I don’t have to. I’ve been living in a pornographic society for so long I’ve been self-isolating from my start. For all this mask talk, nobody says what we did in the steel factories when everyone wore one. We soaked them in water. They filtered far more, getting the small stuff, and it cooled your breathing and moisturized your lungs. You could add a flavor, liking mint. You’ve got a bad reputation online, others warning me about you being a troll. Font is font, on any given Thursday, now, the 14,758th day I’ve been online. And yes, that was just a guess.
@John Watt What do you mean living in a pornographic society?
@The Tweatles: I have something else to say. Let me ask, if the eyes are the windows to your soul, why, in the entire Holy Bible, doesn’t it tell you what happened when you looked into the eyes of Jesus of Nazaeth? Why doesn’t the Holy Bible mention heroin, morphine, opium, hashish and lotus eating? These are the worst of times we are warned about, and the Holy Bible should become The Living Word for all of mankind. Same as the Bhagavad Gita in India and the writings of Bhudda in the Orient. Ask other people these questions. You might find yourself leading your own group, there to help each other.
Ok, gimme a minute to think here🤔
There are as many unemployed Americans atm as there are people living in England.
Things are getting worse and worse in Trump’s America.
The remedy?
Make it Biden’s America.
America Is Better With Biden.
Biden 20/20
I really wanted Bernie’s America but this will do.
the problem is biden’s america looks as fiscally fit as trump’s with the upward cascade of wealth to starve everyone who doesn’t already make seven figures. heads they win, tails you lose. neoliberals are right wing economic conservatives with woke pandering. you’ll get culture war stuff for the next four years no matter who wins, but we’ll still be in a Greater Depression while corporations loot the treasury of your tax dollars.
How can anyone think that Trump and his children advisors have handled any of this well???
@je eleftheria at least he is being kept in employment.
@Bronze Dosser If you truly support the Democracts you are insane.

@The TweatlesYou make so many claims but never give reasons. Trump is in charge. He said so many, many times.
@The Tweatles Schizophrenia is a serious mental illness that affects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. People with schizophrenia may seem like they have lost touch with reality, which causes significant distress for the individual, their family members, and friends. If left untreated, the symptoms of schizophrenia can be persistent and disabling. However, effective treatments are available. When delivered in a timely, coordinated, and sustained manner, treatment can help affected individuals to engage in school or work, achieve independence, and enjoy personal relationships.
Idiots, the cult followers and racists😒TRAITORS!!!!
No one believed those employment numbers the WH reported the other day… Americans know that The Trump administration tainted the unemployment numbers for good reports in another campaign stunt, just like they’re trying to do now with anything related to covid, hospitalizations, positive, negative, deaths even ventilator usage! smh
TWO PROBLEMS: (1) Wages are so low people can’t afford to go to work; (2) Without a COHERENT NATIONAL PLAN people are afraid they will get sick and have no health coverage. FACT: Covid has exposed THE LIES of America.
Still, it’s my country and it’s not like I can go anywhere.
@The new normal isn’t normal No but you can VOTE to make it better.
@timber_beast Fully intend to.
I’m voting TRUMP/PENCE2O2O 🇺🇸

Jobs, jobs, jobs!!! He actually meant…losing them!
I know people who still haven’t received their $1,200 checks.
@The Tweatles Apparently not for 15 million Americans.

@Ro G That’s probably people who just expect it to be mailed to them without filling out the paperwork or perhaps they don’t have a social security number.
tinyurl.com/yc33oxyl 🎶
Me too.
@The Tweatles Alternatively, most of them are t’rump supporters.
@Ro G they have a website. I filled my paperwork out in late May and got paid by mid June…
1.3 Million Americans file for Unemployment; over 50 Million Americans Unemployed
Ivanka Trump= “Try something new….”
She is soooooo incredibly tone deaf.
Ever notice how mainstream media doesn’t talk about the first two times Leg Hair Joe ran for president and what happened? 😆

@The Tweatles stop being political goofy
We are in a good place with 136,000 dead only, and not a million. -Trump Let us make sure we do not get to a million dead moving forward in 2021. Trump has made America great in the surging number of dead from the virus.
You think that’s a good place? New Zealand has 22 dead
Donald, the economic genius, two weeks ago: _”A strong foundation allowed us to be up here today talking about these record-setting job numbers and other numbers that we’re producing, because America’s economy is now roaring back to life like nobody has ever seen before. Nobody has ever seen numbers like this.”_
No worries Ivanka says find something else
Hey Mitch McConnell. It is time for another stimulus check. Thanks to the administration and the Spineless Senate, the virus is spreading and the economy is tanking. People are having trouble putting food on the table. Not a winning policy for reelection for the Republican party. It happened on your watch and is your responsibility. Man up
Make America Great Without Trump ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
Lol …..
You just shut stuff down again what did you expect leftist
Great job trump 😆
Another million who have time to vote in November against Trump.😂😂😂
Not everyone gets the state’s max UI amout, some just qualify for $50 a week to $1 dollar. Are are they suppose to survive on that amount if unemployment bonus $600 is not extended or decreased? Worst riot is American history is coming!
I’m sure Frump thinks the unemployment is a Hoax.
This what you get incompetent self center me, I, in history I wanna chief… trump’s maga , death sick , unemployment…
