RUSH: This is the most… The employment news, the jobs… It was good news. That\u2019s all you need to know. The unemployment rate stays at 4.1%. The number of jobless claims — which I know sounds confusing for those of you in Rio Linda (it means the number of people applying for unemployment) — was way down below expectations. But that\u2019s not the news.<\/p>\n

The Hispanic unemployment rate dropped to 4.7%. That is the lowest in the history of the United States. That\u2019s 4.7% unemployment in the Latino and Hispanic population — and, again, that\u2019s the lowest in the history of the United States. Couple this with the news that we have had all week that manufacturing jobs, the original number was 40,000, and I think it\u2019s closer to 50, maybe 51,000 manufacturing jobs recreated. These are jobs which had been lost.<\/p>\n
They\u2019ve been recreated, repatriated, remade here in the United States in the first 10 months of the Trump administration. The economy is just booming. The statistics here are undeniable. Why do you think the unemployment rate for Hispanics dropped to 4.7%? Again, that\u2019s the lowest in the history of United States. Now, you compare that. The Democrat Party — and, for that matter, the Republicans — for the last 20 years have been doing competing handstands trying to convince Hispanics that they\u2019re all for them by promoting amnesty by having open borders.<\/p>\n

And, of course, this didn\u2019t lead to any good news on the economy, didn\u2019t lead to any good news for the Hispanic community in terms of employment. So now we got a new sheriff in town, literally, and deportations are way up. Although it has been discovered that Obama had reported deporting something like 500,000 illegals, they weren\u2019t deported. We\u2019ll chalk it up to a clerical error. The point is that is a number that is as large as the population of Atlanta. That is larger than the population of Sacramento.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s an outlier because deportations are way up, and the numbers of illegals attempting to get into the country is way down. I mean, the things that have taken place and the dramatic changes that have occurred, the sad thing is that 90% of the American people that watch the news media don\u2019t know any of this. Because they watch the Drive-By Media, the Drive-Bys are not reporting any of this. Of course, the Drive-Bys are only reporting that Trump is a scoundrel and he should resign now that Franken has resigned and the collusion with Russia and all that.<\/p>\n

That is an illustration, when you get right down to it, of just how bad and weak mainstream news reporting is: “92% of Democrats believe Trump advisors had improper dealings with Russia.” There isn\u2019t any evidence of this. There hasn\u2019t been a shred of evidence found. In fact, the evidence that keeps being discovered illustrates quite the opposite, that it\u2019s the Democrats and Hillary and the FBI that were having all the illicit contact with Russia.<\/p>\n
