Good morning, today on The Meter, we will cover the Friday jobs report that shattered expectations as 467,000 jobs were created last month. Joe Biden immediately seized the opportunity to emphasize that the report was the result of his economic development programs. The labor participation rate also increased by 0.3%. Is this proof of success of Biden's plan? Also, tensions are increasing as Vladimir Putin continues the build up of Russian troops on the Ukrainian border where experts claim 3/4 of needed troops are now in position to overrun Ukraine in one week. The US has also said Russia is planning False Flag operations. In response, Joe Biden has sent 8,000 America soldiers to Poland as a deterrent to the Russian buildup. Is Putin attempting to reestablish the USSR? Cancel culture has hit the left, or actually grased it. Whoopi Goldberg, cohost on the popular daytime talk show, The View, was suspended for insensitive comments about the Holocaust. Goldberg likened it to the inhumanity of man instead of hate, racism, and bigotry. Whoopi has been sent home for 2 weeks. Was this action appropriate or is there a larger message behind Goldberg's comments? Finally, here in Virginia, Loudoun County schools are once again getting attention. A vice-principal at an Elementary School warned parents that if you send your child to school without a mask, they will be arrested for trespassing. This is in direct defiance of Governor Glenn Youngkin's order that gave parents the choice. Is the mask mandate now about control and not safety. Please join the discussion at 10AM.
