Fox Business host Stuart Varney delivered some bad news for Fox & Friends: the latest report shows the job market is strong, and it doesn't look like we're heading toward a recession.

Stuart joined Fox & Friends a few minutes before opening his own show on FBN to give them the bad news.

Kilmeade opened up by saying Varney likes these numbers.

“Well, I don’t necessarily like it. It’s stronger. It’s typical of a strong jobs market," Varney said. "If you think we’re going to go into recession, this strong jobs number will talk you out of it. It does not look like we’re heading towards a recession when you got 300,00 new jobs created one month.”

“These are very good numbers for President Biden," Varney stated.

Varney then opened up his own program by highlighting the jobs report: "311,000 jobs added in February-- the unemployment rate is up to 3.6%, these are hot numbers," he said.

Fox News and right-wing economists have been screaming about a recession and actually hoping for one to derail the Democratic administration, but the economy is chugging.

Of course, on crazy Maria's FBN program, Fox New's Charles Payne claimed the jobs reports have been so good they must all be "rigged."

It's very weird watching wingnut economists praying for horrible job creation. Don't they love America?

Now if only Powell would get out of the way and stop raising rates.
