Biden administration grossly overestimated jobs in final year

 Daily Signal:

...

From March 2024 to March 2025—a period mostly covering the final year of the Biden administration—BLS overestimated job numbers by 911,000. In other words, for that period, the nation added a stunning 911,000 fewer jobs than were originally reported, the largest such error on record.

Let that sink in.

But it’s a lot worse than that. Over the last three years, the BLS has overcounted nearly 3 million jobs that didn’t exist.

These aren’t random errors when every revision skews in the same direction.

Even more troubling, the BLS numbers released last week pointed in opposite directions. One survey showed 22,000 jobs created while the other suggested nearly 300,000. Which is it?

By relying on faulty data and skewed reporting methods, BLS essentially invented millions of jobs that weren’t there. That flawed data was then used by the Biden administration and the legacy media to promote a job market that didn’t exist, instead of reporting the weak jobs’ recovery.


For an agency that describes itself as the “principal fact-finding agency for the federal government” in labor economics and statistics, that’s a shocking and intolerable error.

I get the impression that the Biden team was trying to rig the job numbers for political purposes.  That should be investigated.  It appears to be a case of political fraud.
