Last Friday’s Bureau of Labor Statistics employment report showed that U.S.
employers added some 175,000 jobs in April. But while April’s numbers captured most of the headlines, the same jobs report also contained downward revisions for earlier this year, with the BLS admitting that “employment in February and March combined is 22,000 lower than previously reported.” Close observers have noted that the BLS has revised its jobs numbers downward nearly every month since President Joe Biden has been in office.
“The BLS confirmed what we have been saying for much of the past year, namely that hundreds of thousands of US jobs were nothing more than a figment in the BLS’s imagination, and politically motivated Excel spreadsheets,” ZeroHedge commented last August when the BLS’s sizeable revision occurred. The fluctuating statistics have finally caught the attention of lawmakers in Congress. Last week, Rep. Mary Miller, R-Ill., grilled Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su about her Biden-friendly reports.
