Trump was right about Biden cooking the jobs numbers

The pace of job growth was likely significantly weaker than reported from early 2024 through early this year, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said Tuesday.

The U.S. added 911,000 fewer jobs over the 12 months that ended in March, the BLS said, trimming by a bit more than half the 1.79 million jobs the official data now show.

And it comes at a time when the BLS has come under fire from President Trump over the accuracy of its data.

In its preliminary revision report in August of last year, the BLS estimated the U.S. created about 818,000 fewer jobs than previously estimated for the year ended March 2024. After that report came out, President Trump, then running for election, said that former President Joe Biden and former Vice President Kamala Harris had been cooking the numbers, and that the only reason the data had come to light was because it was leaked.
