“America’s Job Market Has Entered the Slow Lane”—that was a recent Wall Street Journal headline. Most of the mainstream media echoes this interpretation, but the reality is much better than the headlines suggest. In fact, it’s as if the reporters who wrote those headlines didn’t read beyond the headline of the jobs report.
Here’s what the Dec. 2025 jobs report actually showed:
✅People working multiple part-time jobs exchanged them for single full-time jobs in December.
✅During nearly the entire final year of the Biden admin, annual native-born employment was in the red. In 2025, native-born employment beat foreign-born employment by over 1.6 million.
✅The federal workforce is the smallest it’s been since 2014.
