The Administration released a "better than expected" jobs report.

And I dare question if his new head of the is cooking the books???

Where on Earth could I possibly get an idea like that???

When fired the head of the b/c he didn't like the numbers she reported ("They MUST be wrong!"), the was put on hold for several months and we had to rely on PRIVATE jobs reports to know what was going on.

The most trusted was "Challenger, Gray & Christmas".

While the "official" report claims "surprising job growth" in January, CGC is reporting "Most job cuts since The Great Recession" of 2009, and "The Worst January" hiring EVER.

EVER.

The 🚨won't be publishing a delayed report on wholesale price this month.

The federal agency🚨will skip the postponed Oct report on the PPI & instead roll those figures into Nov's report, which'll be published Jan 14, reported the Wall Street Journal.

Make America Guess Again?

"President Donald Trump’s nominee to run the Bureau of Labor Statistics told Fox News Digital on Monday that the agency should suspend monthly jobs reports, a change that could leave businesses and policymakers at least temporarily without the data they’ve used for decades to gauge the state of the labor market and broader economy."
