The US economy added 372,000 jobs in June, an unexpected boost in hiring and a signal that the labor market remains robust despite recession fears, according to the monthly jobs report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics released Friday.

The unemployment rate held steady at 3.6%, still close to the 52-year low last reached in the months before the pandemic hit.
The June job total, slightly down from May's revised 384,000 jobs added, far surpassed expectations. Economists polled by Refinitiv projected 272,700 jobs would be added in June, amid a period of economic unease and growing fears that a recession is brewing.

The strongest job gains for June came from the professional and business services, leisure and hospitality and health care industries, with notable increases in areas such as food services and warehousing and storage.

On a federal level we banished our biggest thieves and saboteurs to the outer darkness by rejecting republican attempts to gain or retain office.

Wherever and whenever you remove the dragging weight of republican graft, malice, and stupidity the economy soars. It has been true for the last half-century at least.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled 4-3 on Friday that absentee ballot drop boxes are illegal under Wisconsin law, vindicating a legal argument advanced by the Trump campaign in 2020 though the ruling will govern elections in 2022 and the future, and cannot change previous election results.



The majority ruled that the drop boxes were created by employees of the Wisconsin Elections Commission but the State Constitution grants that power only to the State Legislature.

Seems to be a growing trend .  Duh.
Read Constitutions.


Most amusing are the WEC descriptions of the (wrongly) created drop boxes.

(A) drop box is a secure, locked structure operated by local election officials. Voters may deposit their ballot in a drop box at any time after they receive it in the mail up to the time of the last ballot collection Election Day. Ballot drop boxes can be staffed or unstaffed, temporary or permanent.

(A) family member or another person may return the ballot on behalf of the voter,an agent of the voter may place the voter  absentee ballot in a drop box.


Gee.
What possibly could go wrong?
ROFL!

When you mail a ballot another person is returning the ballot on your behalf.  Seems to be fine. 

Any actual evidence drop boxes are a problem?

As he just again demonstrated, Red cannot believe most Americans do not fall for the same bullshit he chooses to swim in.

In his mind it must be the drop boxes and lack of poll tax and aptitude tests that are skewing the results.

  A drop box is a secure, locked structure operated by local election officials. Voters may deposit their ballot    and hundreds of others     in a drop box at any time after they receive it in the mail up to the time of the last ballot collection Election Day. Ballot drop boxes can be staffed or unstaffed, temporary or permanent.


Fixed.

More eligible voters could vote. Which is "wrong" when like you and 4/7 of the Wisky Supreme Court favor policies people do not like.

Note that there is no - absolutely zero - evidence of anything going wrong with the vote in Wisconsin despite using the drop box system for years. In fact, there are no credible allegations of any fraud issues with the system. Each of the SCOWs was elected in elections featuring drop boxes. Drop boxes were uncontroversial in 2016 when Trump won, in 2010 and 2014.when Scott Walker won. They are now controversial solely because some butt hurt sore.llser in Florida could not accept the mandate of the masses.

No evidence that that happened.

And as with the EPA problem, agencies have been acting on the guidance of the creating legislation for as long as we have had agencies.

It is the SCOTUS and WisScotus rulings that are at variance with how government has been managed.

The legislation that empowered them was and is clear - and was correctly followed.
