Summary

President Trump touted the surprisingly positive May jobs report released on Friday. The data showed the U.S. added 2.5 million jobs during the month of May and the unemployment rate dropped to 13.3 percent from 14.7 percent in April. Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Tom Perez weighs in on the jobs report and explains why he believes the news isn’t all good. Plus, Perez discusses the 2020 election, why he thinks former Vice President Joe Biden is the man for the moment and whether the Democrats will host a convention in August. For nearly two weeks Americans have been filling the streets to protest against police brutality following the death of George Floyd. We check back in with the city where it all started: Minneapolis. Fox News correspondent Matt Finn gives an update on what it is like covering a protest and how its differs from previous ones. Plus, commentary by Dinesh D'Souza author of "United States of Socialism." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
