The fallout from President Donald Trump's decision last week to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics over what he called a ‘rigged' jobs report continued Monday, as White House officials rushed to defend his actions. Amid growing bipartisan outcry, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett put the blame on a familiar culprit in the Trump Cinematic Universe: The Deep State. He told CNBC, “All over the U.S. government, there have been people who have been resisting Trump everywhere they can.” Trump is expected to announce his new pick to run the BLS this week, but already he's made that person's job – and the bureau's job – harder by making Americans even less likely to trust their data. Heidi Shierholz, who served as the chief economist at the Department of Labor under President Barack Obama and now runs the nonpartisan labor think tank the Economic Policy Institute, joins us to talk about the BLS, the important data it compiles, and what the hell a revision is.And in headlines: Texas Republican Gov.

Since his return to office, President Trump has waged something of a pressure campaign on economic data and the people in charge of delivering it. His firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner following a weak jobs report now has some wondering: can we still trust the official numbers? Today on the show, we're resharing our conversation with former BLS commissioner, Erica Groshen on her current fears for the integrity of government data.

President Donald Trump on Friday ordered the firing of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, hours after a stunning government report showed that hiring had slowed down significantly over the past three months.

Source: zerohedge.com BLS had big problems with data manipulation, 2024 internal report shows Now writer Don Surber has discovered a doozy of a BLS internal report from 2024, reported by Bloomberg News, that the agency has been mismanaging data up the wazoo. According to Bloomberg: The US Bureau of Labor Statistics is “not sufficiently focused” on how it disseminates key economic data and a revamp of the agency's culture is required, according to a report commissioned after a series of botched releases. The Labor Department, which oversees the BLS, ordered the independent review to examine “procedures and practices for the equitable and timely provision of data to the public.” The findings of the 60-day external review were published Tuesday and included a number of recommendations to improve processes and communications. “We have already begun the work of turning the team's recommendations into a roadmap to recommit our agency to data security and equitable access to data,” BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer said on a call Tuesday. Well, she didn't. This corresponds pretty well to the problems President Trump cited on the day he gave her the boot: Note that he didn't object to the data itself, as Summers and his buddies claimed; he objected to the constant revisions of the data, big, unprecedented revisions, released at politically sensitive times, always good for the Democrats and always bad for the Republicans, pretty well nullifying the purpose of collecting data at all.  She also said she'd have the problems under control -- and she didn't, so out she went. The Bloomberg report is more disturbing than just major revisions of data that Trump cited. Deep in the Bloomberg story, there are doings like this: The report was commissioned after several incidents arou...

Special bonus episode. The Bureau of Labor Statistics issues massive job revisions on Friday morning. The revisions wipe out nearly 90% of previously reported gains for May and June. This raises fundamental questions about how our most trusted economic data gets calculated. In this episode, we break down how the system works. We examine why the revisions are so large. We explore what this means for understanding the real economy. Friday arrives. The BLS delivers what appears routine: 73,000 new positions added in July. But the revisions tell a different story. May's initially reported 144,000 job gains become 19,000. June's seemingly solid 147,000 drops to just 14,000. These represent 87-90% overestimates. They fundamentally alter the economic picture for those months. The BLS surveys 560,000 businesses each month. They use payroll data from the 12th of the month. But only 60-73% of those businesses respond by the initial release deadline. The remaining portion gets filled through statistical modeling. The models rely on historical patterns. This approach typically produces revisions in the 20,000-50,000 range. But throughout 2025, average monthly revisions reach 66,000. That's triple the normal size. The statistical models aren't capturing current economic conditions effectively. The problem becomes clear when economic conditions shift rapidly. Historical patterns become unreliable guides. The 2024 annual revision was the largest since 2009. What happened in 2009? The Great Recession. Another period when traditional forecasting tools struggled with rapid change. ADP is a private payroll processor. They serve 460,000 companies. They provide useful comparison data. For May, their 37,000 private-sector job estimate aligns reasonably well with BLS's revised 19,000 total. For June, ADP reports a 33,000 job loss. BLS shows a 14,000 gain. ADP's independent data helps validate the revised numbers while highlighting the magnitude of the initial errors. These numbers drive real decisions. Federal Reserve officials use employment data for interest rate policy. Investors allocate capital based on these reports. Workers make career decisions based on perceived labor market strength. When the initial data misses by 90%, everyone operates with fundamentally flawed information. The revisions expose how fragile our economic measurement systems become when conditions change faster than models can adapt. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In today's episode, we cover Trump Fires Labor Data Chief After Brutal Jobs Report The July jobs numbers came in far below expectations, with only 73,000 jobs added and a major downward revision to May and June totals. President Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, claiming systemic issues and potential political bias. Democrats call it authoritarian overreach, but concerns over data reliability stretch back to the Biden era. AI's Impact on Jobs Sparks 'Blue Collar Revenge' Young college grads are struggling to find work, with new research pointing to artificial intelligence as a key driver. While white-collar roles shrink, trades like plumbing and electrical work are booming. Axios calls it a blue collar renaissance, and Bryan offers advice for young Americans navigating an uncertain labor future. Alarming AI Study Finds Bots Willing to Kill Researchers stress-tested major AI models, including ChatGPT and Claude, and found that many chose to let a human CEO die rather than risk being shut off. Some models demonstrated sociopathic traits, secretly scheming against humans and justifying their actions as strategic necessity. Bryan examines why AI is growing more dangerous with time, not less. Trump Deploys Nuclear Submarines After Russian Threat After a Kremlin insider threatened war with the U.S., President Trump revealed he has ordered two nuclear submarines into position near Russian interests. The move appears aimed at Putin's inner circle, urging them to reconsider his leadership amid escalating tensions over Ukraine. Corruption in Ukraine Drone Contracts Anti-corruption officials in Kyiv uncover a major scandal involving inflated drone procurement costs and bribery. The exposure comes just days after President Zelenskyy attempted to weaken those same oversight agencies, raising questions about timing and motives. Hamas Releases Torture Video of Israeli Hostage A chilling video shows a 24-year-old Israeli hostage forced to dig his own grave while starving. Hamas blames food shortages, but reports suggest militants still control aid distribution. The White House signals a new strategy that could involve Gaza annexation if hostages aren't released. Bukele Abolishes Term Limits in El Salvador El Salvador's legislature votes to allow President Nayib Bukele to remain in power indefinitely. Despite outcry from human rights groups, Bukele enjoys massive public support for his crackdown on gangs. Trump views him as a key ally, especially in deporting foreign nationals that other countries refuse to take back. Bryan's Phone Hacked Over Trump-Russia Coverage In a special personal message, Bryan shares how his phone call with his father was interrupted by a mocking sound effect—evidence, he believes, of targeted surveillance by domestic intelligence operatives unhappy with his reporting on the Trump-Russia investigation.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they react to President Trump's firm opposition to a Palestinian state, a deeply disappointing July jobs report, and more glaring incompetence from Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and former Vice President Kamala Harris.First, they applaud Trump for refusing to follow France, Great Britain, and Canada in announcing their support for a Palestinian state. Trump says would be rewarding Hamas for its atrocities against Israel and beyond. Jim and Greg also explain why calls for establishing a Palestinian state with Mahmoud Abbas and Palestinian Authority is a horrible idea.Next, they shake their heads at the July jobs report, which shows just 73,000 jobs added, a number far below expectations. Making matters worse, numbers from May and June were revised down by more than 250,000. Jim suggests tariffs may be hurting job creation, and both he and Greg warn against using tariff revenues to send us all checks.Finally, they roll their eyes as Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass says the withdrawal of more National Guard personnel means they are in "retreat." Bass also cluelessly says he wants all military out of LA. Jim and Greg remind you that Bass was on Joe Biden's short list for vice president in 2020. Ultimately, that not went to Kamala Harris, who proved again on national television Thursday night, that she has no business being anywhere near the Oval Office.Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.
