BLS job numbers under Biden revised downard in 'largest ever' correction

Any reasonable person who lives a normal day-to-day life knows that under former President Joe Biden, the economy was weak, and it was difficult to land gainful employment, though the administration at the time attempted to gaslight Americans into believing otherwise.

And while it took a little while for the truth to emerge, according to Breitbart, it finally did after the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released a bombshell report this week revising job numbers downward -- numbers that the Biden administration originally bragged about.

The revision, noted as being one of the largest ever, revised the total number of jobs added during the year up to March 2024, going from a reported 1.8 million down to about 850,000.

The revision is a stark humiliation for the Biden government, including Democrats and their media allies who relentlessly bragged about Biden's job economy and the economic conditions being great overall.

What's going on?

The downward revision proves what most of us already knew. Biden and Democrats continuously touted the high job numbers, but any normal, working-class person knew that wasn't the case in real life.

Breitbart noted:

The BLS said payrolls will likely be revised down by 911,000 jobs, or 0.6 percent. That reduces total employment gains for the 12 months ending in March to about 850,000, compared with the 1.8 million originally reported. On a seasonally adjusted basis, average monthly job growth drops from about 147,000 to just over 70,000.

Not only were the numbers under Biden false, they were an outright lie -- and Democrats pushed the narrative anyway, as they usually do.

Trump inherited an absolute disaster and has done his best to get America back on track.

Trump inherited "weaker" economy than believed

Breitbart added:

The revision recasts the economic backdrop at the start of President Donald Trump’s second term. Far from inheriting a booming labor market, Trump stepped into office amid an economy that was already weaker than believed. What was described at the time as a historically strong job market now appears far less robust.

The numbers have a profound effect on American life, and even Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell last year said that “the U.S. economy has just been remarkable… performing very, very well."

Except, it actually wasn't. Not even close, according to the bombshell revision.

Bigger issues

The report, according to Breitbart, strongly suggests that the Federal Reserve "miscalibrated" policy in late 2024 based on the then-BLS statistics under Biden.

The outlet explained:

The revision also highlights the risk that the Federal Reserve miscalibrated policy in late 2024. The central bank lowered interest rates three times between September and December, but has left them in place since Donald Trump took office. In recent months, job growth has slowed to a crawl and the revisions show that it was weaker even before Trump took office, meaning the Fed was already behind the curve.

While it's a relief that the truth is surfacing, it will undoubtedly take Trump and his administration even more effort and time to undo what Biden and his people did to America.
