The Commissioner on Labor Statistics has just formally become an unemployment number. And it’s about time.
Remember the saying about ‘it’s not the votes that matter, it’s who’s counting them’ (I’m paraphrasing), yeah, it can be applied to any entity that’s popping out ‘official’ numbers.
Wrong. She was fired after consistently getting it WRONG. You don’t get to be this bad at your job and keep it. She was missing the mark for more than a year by HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF JOBS. Unacceptable. Policy makers look to these reports to inform decisions (like rate cuts by the fed). We need accuracy, and President Trump will restore competency and accuracy to this critical agency.
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 chances of Victory. This is the same Bureau of Labor Statistics that overstated the Jobs Growth in March 2024 by approximately 818,000 and, then again, right before the 2024 Presidential Election, in August and September, by 112,000. These were Records — No one can be that wrong? We need accurate Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified. Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can’t be manipulated for political purposes. McEntarfer said there were only 73,000 Jobs added (a shock!) but, more importantly, that a major mistake was made by them, 258,000 Jobs downward, in the prior two months. Similar things happened in the first part of the year, always to the negative. The Economy is BOOMING under “TRUMP” despite a Fed that also plays games, this time with Interest Rates, where they lowered them twice, and substantially, just before the Presidential Election, I assume in the hopes of getting “Kamala” elected – How did that work out? Jerome “Too Late” Powell should also be put “out to pasture.” Thank you for your attention to this matter!
Between the BLS and the Fed mucking about with stats and rates, they’ve done their best to either be kingmakers or usurpers.
