‘BLS is Broken’: Leavitt Slams Jobs Report

MSN

The Trump administration has criticized the Labor Department after the BLS revised job growth down by 911,000. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt blamed the Biden administration for the weak performance and called for new leadership at the BLS. The report showed that only 22,000 jobs were added, fueling concerns over the reliability of employment data.

So they didn't like the BLS numbers and fired the boss.

And they still don't like the BLS numbers.

Perhaps the BLS numbers aren't the problem.

This isn't going to age well.

How do you mean?

Well Trump wants to control the stats so he can keep lying about the reality he's creating with his unhinged policies.

Perhaps the BLS numbers aren't the problem.

Or perhaps they are. Maybe the way they count isn't dependable.

Wait, noted economist Karaline Leave it doesn't believe BLS figures? I'm guessing they don't support Dear Leader's claims again.

Or perhaps Trump's bumbling has ****ed the economy.

Hopefully she gets paid well to constantly lie.

You don't know who's lying and who isn't. One thing we do know is democrats have been lying since 2015. Why would we believe them now? Trump Russian Collusion should remind everyone that the democrat leaders in our government are corrupt and lie to us for their own benefit to keep themselves in power over all of us.

Except that wasn't a lie.

It's the POSs at the BLS who are full of BS.

 

[Cope]

I'm pretty sure the numbers under discussion were from Biden's tenure regaling us with the largest single swing in the history of the report.

If Trump's lips are moving, he's lying.

 

[j brown's body]

Maybe firing people for what they say is counterproductive.

This isn't going to age well.

Because?

The numbers will change?

 

[BirdinHand]

It's the POSs at the BLS who are full of BS.

So what metric SHOULD we be using?

Nope. This is July's numbers Leavitt is bitching about.

 

[Cope]

Oh, I think I grok the reading of the quoted piece.

The BLS was being blamed for the 911,000 loss (the past) , while only adding 22,000 in July (this year)?

Why would anyone be surprised by DJT’s actions?

This is the man who has a history of valuing his assets — RE holdings — high or low depending which is the most helpful in a particular instance. Needing a loan, or having a tax assessment — valuations could swing wildly.

Trump could cook the BLS books, broadcast it in real time live on 5th avenue,and he wouldnt lose supporters

LOOK! Over there!

You're accusing liberals of lying while supporting a buffoon who has NEVER told the truth!!!!



That's just stupidly calling attention to Taco's lies!

Trump reminds me of every villain trope where the doctor knows they will die telling a man his illness is now terminal but still shaky dog does so and gets shot.

Which is weird, since he lies to our faces nearly every day about “lower” prices for gas, food, and prescription drugs.

MAGAs lie, it's a fundamental property of MAGA.
