Joe Biden has frequently cited his job creation figures as a significant component of his reputation. He claimed to have” created” 16 million work, even though fact-checkers have frequently pointed out that these work didn’t come from Biden’s laws but simply the natural rise from pandemic-related closures.

Perhaps the fictitious figures are worse than what was initially believed.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics ( BLS ) released its most recent employment report on Friday, and it revealed a scandalous downward revision of the jobs figures from President Biden’s final year in office in addition to the slowdown in job growth that occurred during his presidency.
The BLS has adjusted its past quotes, revealing that the Biden presidency overestimated the regular work numbers by an average of about 626, 000, according to the report.
The common revision for all months in the current jobs report was -626k, but what’s even crazier is the company work dynamics data from BLS and the first benchmark from PHL Fed point to even worse upward revisions in the next quarterly benchmark: pic. twitter.com/AeLd9lH4cJ— E.

The accuracy and completeness of the financial data that the previous administration presented are a major issue with this significant downward revision. The initial exaggeration of job growth was likely blatant election meddling, as Joe Biden ( and eventually Kamala Harris ) frequently cited employment growth figures as “proof” that their guidelines were working.
For our Guests:  , A Terrible, Horrible, No Nice, Really Bad Week for Democrats. Nice.

” Tomorrow’s jobs report reveals the Biden economy was far worse than people thought, and underscores the necessity of President Trump’s pro-growth laws”, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. President Trump declared a national power crisis to make America the dominant once during his first weeks in office, pledged to reduce ten rules for each new regulation, and laid out a strategy to bring the biggest tax cut in history to hardworking Americans. President Trump is delivering on his claim to restore our cracked business, revive little business enthusiasm, create jobs, and kindle a new Golden Age for America”.
This is not the first time the Trump years have experienced a significant upward revision.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics had to appear clean and significantly alter itswildly exaggerated employment figures for the month of March next summer. According to the report, the Biden-Harris management blatantly overstated work generation by 818, 000 between March 2023 and March 2024.
On the horizon are almost certainly more negative edits. While pay numbers are being revised upwards, the number of people working multiple jobs continues to rise, as E. J. Antoni, an economist for the Heritage Foundation, points out. This means the level of “double-counting” in work reports is also greater than originally estimated.
At the same time the number of payments is revised down, the number of people working many work keeps rising, the amount of “double-counting” is actually larger than earlier estimated- more work doesn’t always mean more people employed: photograph. twitter.com/jyKVpa9Snl— E.

To add insult to injury, while total job numbers were decreased, government jobs were increased, and far more of the jobs created by Joe Biden were created by people of foreign nationals.
You didn’t make this up:
The overall employment numbers were really revised down for the entire of last year in this morning’s report, but the number of government jobs were upsized and set a new record in January, which is a best way to end the Biden administration picture. twitter.com/7Fr5bvDems— E.

The Biden tradition: there are roughly the same number of native-born Americans working now as before the pandemic, w/ all online career growth going to foreign-born workers whose employment is up by about 5 million… pic. twitter.com/WEFPiHjSo I— E.
