WaPo Confirms Biden Killed 11,000 Construction Jobs While Fact-Checking Cruz

Left-leaning Washington Post made a surprising admission when it confirmed Biden single-handedly killed about 11,000 construction jobs his first day in the White House when he cancelled the Keystone XL pipeline project. The publication issued a “fact-check’ on Senator Cruz’s tweet which blasted Biden’s choice to cancel the contract. Washinton Post gave Cruz’s tweet two “Pinocchios” because he did not include the fact that the construction jobs are temporary. Cruz fired back with the fact that ALL construction jobs are technically temporary.

The Daily Wire reports:

“Cruz cited a real estimate of approximately 11,000 jobs, but he left out that they were all temporary,” the Post concluded. “In the same report, the State Department said the Keystone XL pipeline, if built, would require only 35 to 50 permanent positions.”

“The missing context is key here, obscuring half the story. Cruz earns Two Pinocchios.”

As reported by The Daily Wire on Thursday, Canadian lawmakers, including the country’s prime minister, expressed outrage over Biden’s move to rescind a permit for a pipeline to transport oil from Canada to the Gulf Coast.

“Biden took office on Wednesday and, as one of his first acts, rescinded approval for the Keystone XL pipeline that former President Donald Trump had green-lighted in 2017,” Tim Pearce reported. “The pipeline has long been a target of environmental activists and Democratic politicians looking to stop the use of fossil fuels.”

Ted Cruz wrote on Twitter, “WaPo confirms that YES, on his first day in office, Joe Biden destroyed 11,000 jobs (including 8000 union jobs). But, it says, they’re construction jobs so are only temporary. ALL construction jobs are temporary. President still shouldn’t destroy them.”



    1. ChinaJoe heads a family of CRIME, they all must do the time! Lockem up NOW!

      Kamala Harris ain’t Black, her family had Slaves; she ain’t NBC and NOT eligible. just a cheap lying usurper like usurper criminal Obama aka Barry Soetore!
      Trump is our lawfully elected President !!

      1. George I couldn’t have said it better you are spot on!!
        It’s going to be a long 4 yrs….I miss MY President Trump

          1. god I hope you are right .Hope DJT can find a way to prove the election was stolen

        1. It’s unconstitutional to call Biden president. Since when is a stolen election, which had millions more votes than registered voters, considered legitimate. Doesn’t matter if electors voted Biden.. it’s Treason.

      2. No one mentioned Kamala Harris family slave owners…unless you read alternative media. Also, Kamala, according to law, cannot serve as President. Look up the word “Natural Born Citizen”.

        1. Also do not forget that creepy Joe’s family name (and his middle name) Robinette, owned slaves. Such hypocrites.

        2. Well, Susanna, it seems you missed a very important point. It doesn’t matter what the demorats do or did. Their supporters do not care, this whole election was about them getting rid of Mr. Trump. So, by hell and high water, they did. Please, do not believe for a second that Harris will not be President when she and Piglousy decide to dispose of ole Joe with the 25th amendment. All that said, Mr. Trump is the best President we have had, he was for the people and for America. This bunch is for themselves and China.

      1. CNN: Breaking News! – Joe Biden admitted to hospital for a brain transplant. Three brains are being considered for the transplant. Planned Parenthood is looking for more. One is recently deceased Rap Star MaMaLeoOceanSea, the second is Ayatollah Bigaknifeo, and the third is Ex-Cuban Leader Fidel Castro, who’s brain has been kept frozen since his death. Stay tuned for the rest of the story as it takes place. His brain cavity may be too small to accept any of the three.

    2. Moron Alert!…Moron Alert!     Albert “The Troll” Hess is in the building. Moron Alert!

      Drop-dead moron. You can’t be trusted. You are nothing but a lying troll.

  1. While the left can find NOTHING nice to say about President Trump, he had one thing going for him that was NEVER acknowledged or even ‘hinted’ about in the MSM. EVERYTHING HE DID HELPED THE AMERICAN CITIZEN — he did NOTHING to hurt them !! more money, more jobs, more freedom – – – (life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness). The current administration seems hell-bent on hurting the populous.

    1. Their ONLY goal is to totally control the entire population! Every Democrat thinks that they just want to control the Republicans. The reason for that thought process is that they already do control the Dems.

    2. That is their agenda. Seek and destroy all Conservative Americans~~ however, we out number them and are better armed.

  2. The Sierra Club is closely tied to the democrat party, and the only thing they all have in common is they don’t care about people. The Sierra Club shut down how many coal communities and power plants. The Navajo Generating Station and the Kayenta Mines employed over 1000 native Indians who are now unemployed with no prospects for future work.
    Biden is going to put millions more out of work, till he is finally voted out.

    1. Not just him—every Dimocrat is willing to allow the politicians to destroy our USA, even if it hurts them.

    2. We can’t vote him “out” — he was never legitimately voted “in!!” A demented interloper for whom seditious puppeteers are pulling the strings. May God help us, please!

    3. He took lessons from Obama. There were 65 million people unemployed when he took office. Many of the unemployed had worked at well paying, skilled, jobs with benefits. What he failed to say, was that in order to make his job numbers look better he had the labor dept. change the way the numbers were counted. Anyone who was unemployed, but no longer collecting unemployment benefits, was not counted. Then he claimed more and more people were getting jobs, but he failed to make clear that 95% of those jobs were temporary, or part time, with no benefits. They ranged from 1 hour to 32 hours per week. The majority of the better jobs were given to 8 million people living here illegally. It worked out that when Obama left office there were less jobs than when he took office, and there were still 65 million people unemployed. and wages had dropped back to the early 90’s level. Black Americans, as a whole were 40% worse off economically than they were, when he took office in 2009.

  3. Dementia Joe should never have been elected by the crooked pieces of Democrap.. Joe is a crook, always has been a crook and will always be a crook, rapist and prolific liar. The people in his administration are radical idiots who should never have been placed in these positions. Kamala is a Marxist who is a vindictive and arrogant POS. I always believed that no one other than Born in America citizens (Incl. Obama) could hold high offices in our government ie president or VP. Those who voted for them will regret that they voted for Biden and his team when all the immigrants crash our borders and dementia Joe continues to take our constitution apart. Better start praying if you haven’t already. Soros’ henchman Obama along with Kamala , Pelosi and Schumer are writing what Joe reads on his teleprompter as this idiot can’t remember his name non the less think up everything these other idiots dictate. I pray they all go to hell and look forward to the trip!!! May God bless us all who believe in our country and in Gods word and our constitution!!!!!!

  4. Hello Mr. President, you used to be a democrat. What are you now? socialist, communist or just old and worn out? You think you are doing great things by destroying what someone else promoted to help the people of this great country. As a citizen who used to have the power of free speech I am asking you to take a look at what the other group managed to produce. And “BUILD BACK BETTER” on those programs, not destroy them. The people of this country do not give a hoot who is President after the election is over. The winners rejoice and the losers’ keep trying to figure out what happened. As a citizen, I admit I don’t like to loose, but I try to look at the good the next party can and may achieve and quickly go back to the my daily life. Politics is a condition that affects everyone, it can work for the good or in rare cases for the downfall of a country. Mr. President you reached the point were you have the power to do good for the people, not the rich and powerful. The people will be the recipients of your actions and so far they are confused. As a democrat your party is the same party I used to be in, it was known as the party of the people, not any more. I changed parties because the party I was born into has changed, It is no longer the party of the people as it was once known it morphed into a party of unlimited power, a party that cannot work with the other party it must destroy it. The people, who you have sworn to help, are beginning to think maybe we made a big mistake. To destroy everything the previous administration accomplished because the President who came before you was of a different party and was not a politician, is wrong. Did you ever think about the citizens of this country in your decision or were you told by the your party handlers to do it their way? Mr. President please look back at what you achieved so far, half of the country is with you and the other half is against you. Please become a president that we can look up to, a President that over the years you have spent in politics, has the power to work with the other party not try to destroy it.  

  5. Hold on folks! you build the pipe line, then you hire the oil workers on both ends. Cruiz is absolutely right, permeant jobs lost! Think about it!

    1. It is NOT a leader, just bought and paid for by Americas enemies. It’s a Biden thing, a family of perverts and traitors.

    2. He is not a LEADER and he is NOT OUR LEADER!! He is an IMPOSTER that wormed his way into the Oval Office ILLEGALLY, and will NEVER be my President!!! PRESIDENT TRUMP is STILL my President and will be till Jan.2024

  6. The Washington Post had better be careful when they let the truth out, liberals, the ones that can read, will stop buying their paper!

  7. We all know the WaPo will lie through their teeth supporting liberals at the expense of conservatives. Which is why they should be ignored.

  8. Is the WAPO really that IGNORANT about their subject matter? Apparently so!

    Again, ALL CONTRACTORS ARE HIRED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME TO CONSTRUCT A BRIDGE, BUILDING, FREEWAY, ETC. Yes. When the contract is done, their job is over. HOWEVER, for as long as it takes to build that item, THEY ARE EMPLOYED WAPO!! Where did you get your fraudulent info, from the Democrat’s Playbook?

    So, yes, BIDDYBOY BIDEN DID KILL OVER 11,000 JOBS WHEN HE SIGNED THAT IDIOT EXECUTIVE ORDER THAT CANCELLED THE KEYSTONE PIPELINE.

    Not only are mega numbers of Americans angry about losing their jobs, but Canadians are up in arms too. WAY TO GO DINGBAT DEMS. Keep up the great work of killing more jobs. Covid killed so many jobs and now you are PURPOSELY KILLING AMERICAN JOBS???? What’s up with that LOSERS?

    That’s one more arm on the “Hangman Game”. Keep it up and soon you’ll be a whole hangman swinging from a tall skinny gallows…

  9. Our President Donald Trump loves America and We The People!! His only mistakes was, #1, He was Not a Politician, but damm good negotiation expert. #2, He got carried away with the use of his cell phone and refused to Sell Out America!!

    1. AMEN!!!! I HAVE TO BELIEVE, HE WILL GET THE CHANCE AGAIN TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!! IT’S JUST A MATTER OF TIME, DONALD TRUMP IS NOT DONE, HE IS NOT GIVING UP!!!!

  10. For any and all turds who voted for this disaster, I hope you’re happy and prepared for more coming? We had a little dinner get together the other day, and my girlfriend told me that her parents voted for President Trump the first time, but couldn’t do it this time because he was a bully. Hope they can survive the next 4 years.
    If they were my parents, they would of been escorted out the front door.

    1. You got it speak out we are now on the Highway to Hell with Beijing Biden they are selling us out as usual WHO & Paris Climate Accord big money from the US Taxpayers look how much money President Trump saves us by getting out of all this BS they think we are the world’s ATM

  11. The Biden Administration can now be touted “The JOBS Eliminate Administration”. Just remember” you voted for him…..or maybe you didn’t. Make your voices heard…GameStop these Devil’s at their own game.

  12. I advise everyone to get prepared as best you can for a severe downturn in the economy by years end. I project unemployment to be above 10% with a severe spike in inflation due to the overwhelming US debt and be worst by election time in 2022. Forewarned is forearmed to protect you an your love ones from what is about to unfold. We will be on the threshold of a 2nd great depression that could last for years an ignite devastating civil unrest. The answer to keeping this from happening is found in 2nd chronicles 7:14. Please join with me in spreading this msg.

  13. He should have to receive 10 lashings for each job lost. He is only trying to kill the economy and wipe out everything to do with THE BEST DAMN PRESIDENT WE HAVE HAD IN MANY DECADES TRUMP!!! HERE IS A REAL PRESIDENT !!! THAT OTHER THING IS NOT !!! HE IS JUST A MORE THAN WORHTLESS COMMUNIST DICTATOR. !!! THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS THE POWER TO STOP AND WHY DIDNT THEY ?? JUST GOING TO LET HIM HURT THAT MANY FAMILIES ??? REGAURDLESS WHO HE THINKS HE IS AND WHATVHE ACTUALLY IS HE SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO KILL THAT JOBS. WITHOUT HAVING OTHER JOBS THAT PAY AS MUCH OR MORE FOR THOSE PEOPLE AND THEIR FAMILIES.
