@msnbc: The Trump administration is under fire after replacing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics following a major jobs data revision. Joe Scarborough pressed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Morning Joe about the move and whether it was justified: “What evidence is there out there?” #morningjoe

How many times does it have to be said, revisions are NOT correcting mistakes they are adjusting for better data access

Let's see. You cut funding and personnel to the BLS and are now worried the data is coming in too slowly. Goddamn it, we won't survive four years of this incompetence.

Scott Bessent is the DEFINITION of MEDIOCRITY. This was simply Trump having a TANTRUM and firing the messenger.

The biggest revisions in 30 years correlate with the biggest upsets by Trump, in the labor market in 30 years. This Administration doesn’t know what they are doing! The BLS provides only reports on the changes reported to them

Secretary Bessent is 100% correct. The BLS missed by a lot and seemed very convenient to miss.

Scott is doing something really sneaky and dishonest here. When the economy is rapidly changing, the data and models can’t keep up. This is why you end up with revisions. What is actually happening here is that the economy is slowing at such an extreme rate, caused solely by this Administration’s policies, that the revisions are massive. If we’re not in a recession now we soon will be. The stock market is not an anomoly. The S&P 500 is a wreck. It’s tech companies massive investments in the AI bubble are keeping the stock market afloat. Data center construction is now outpacing consumer spending! We’re in the midst of a massive crash in the real economy.

The media didn’t say anything before the 2024 election because that would’ve made Harris look bad

Howard Ludnick secretary of commerce the second day of his appointment he dismantled a government commerce reporting agency. They are trying to control reporting data on how the economy is performing. So they can manipulate the numbers in their favor.

A standard deviation can be understood in terms of its actual mean and Ferrel doesn’t addressed it. 1 standard deviation can mean .01, 1 or 100 away from de mean. Release the report and there are very good statisticians in every university who can check it.
