White House Report Card: Jobs surge hides Biden’s bor­der ‘baloney’

This week’s White House Report Card finds Pres­i­dent Joe Biden still in France after sev­er­al days of D‑Day cer­e­monies.
In speech­es to com­mem­o­rate the 80th anniver­sary of the World War II inva­sion of Nazi-con­trolled France by allied troops, Biden’s words were ade­quate but didn’t com­pare to the notable pro-democ­ra­cy speech­es of the past from for­mer Pres­i­dents John F. Kennedy and Ronald Rea­gan.
Before leav­ing for France, Biden did some­thing he pre­vi­ous­ly said he couldn’t in issu­ing an exec­u­tive order to lim­it ille­gal bor­der cross­ings. The order was mocked for hav­ing mul­ti­ple loop­holes in it, and migrants cross­ing the bor­der didn’t care, still com­ing across.
The econ­o­my kept sput­ter­ing along, adding far more jobs than expect­ed. But the jobs report’s good news was off­set by details show­ing few­er peo­ple in full-time jobs. The unem­ploy­ment rate increased to 4% as a result.
