President Donald Trump on Friday demanded the firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner, hours after the agency reported that job growth in the U.S. had slowed to a near-halt.


quote:

“I was just informed that our Country’s “Jobs Numbers” are being produced by a Biden Appointee, Dr. Erika McEntarfer, the Commissioner of Labor Statistics, who faked the Jobs Numbers before the Election to try and boost Kamala’s [Harris’] chances of Victory,” Trump wrote.

Look I’ve been pretty critical of Trump, but there is no excuse for these huge retroactive corrections. Seems like they are just making shite up.

he's not wrong? whats the point of releasing numbers that are wildly adjusted a few weeks later?

why not just wait until you have the correct numbers or is this just too much of an ask?

either way 'revised up or down' this is a stupid way to report on the economy and turns the market into a see saw.

A) He just now found out the had of the BLS was a Biden appointee?

B) Why, on day 1, did he not send out a memo accepting the resignations of any and everyone appointed by Biden. That should just be standard operating procedure.

Yet you're the one who posted "her" stats in the OP of your thread earlier today. Hypocrite.

BLS Jobs report +73k well below estimates. UE rises to 4.2 Posted by SDVTiger 8/1/25 at 7:43 am
