Since they couldn’t lie enough about inflation, they need an excuse for the Fed rate cut.

“Get rid of them all save State/Defense”

Except those two are highly corrupted. State for decades. Defense in the last decade.

818,000 jobs that didn't exist. That's grounds for firing of those that deliberately reported the false figures. And, the buck stops at the top, so, high-level personnel should be fired too. The person at the very top was 'fired', so he can't be fired again, but should resign from the last 5 months of his term.

Then...

When government counts part-time jobs as an employed individual, and that individual has to take on 2 or 3 jobs in order to make ends meet, we're talking about 2 or 3 jobs (times millions) that tremendously overstates the jobs numbers. If someone takes on a job to mow a lawn for 2 hours and it's reported, that counts as a job. And democrats will happily report all those 'fake' jobs as numbers that need to be added to the employment rolls.

If one takes the number of part-time jobs and divides by 2, the real jobs numbers becomes tremendously lowered. But, since Americans are easily fooled, democrats know they can continue to lie and win their votes.

But politically, this is a bad time for BLS to release this downward revision. Why not wait until after the election?

Seems like BLS guy that authorized the release at this time took a career risk.

I am legitimately surprised this was announced before the election.

BLS is coming clean so the Fed can lower interest rates next month to boost the economy or at least the stock market.

Biden is on his way out.

They can blame him for everything.

For them, if Harris wins…..great. Just keep going like they’ve been going.

If President Trump takes office, well, they’ve been stealing and hiding billions of Taxpayer dollars to get them through.

We are going to see more truth slowly seeping out.

It should be a fairly simple calculation I’d think. How many got a W2 this month compared to last?

I have stopped believing anything the government says unless I have solid corroboration.
