Joe Biden just got caught cooking the books.
The Philadelphia Federal Reserve (PFR) is challenging the employment numbers that Biden has been feasting off.
According to the PFR, Biden’s jobs numbers were off by more than one million for the second quarter.
Not True
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported that the economy saw a net gain of 1,047,000 jobs in the second quarter.
The PFR says that number was really only 10,500.
The Philly Fed says its numbers are far more reliable because the data it uses comes from “more comprehensive, accurate job estimates released by the BLS as part of its Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages program.”
Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) pounced on the information…
WRONG BY A MILLION JOBS. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS.@JoeBiden's admin has been lying to the American people about our economy to prop up his failed agenda & I won't stand for it. I'm requesting an immediate meeting with the head of @BLS_gov. WE NEED ANSWERS NOW! pic.twitter.com/OKwsiYSoER

We should note, some of these discrepancies are rather significant.
For instance, in Delaware, Biden’s home state, the administration reported a net gain of 4.5 percent, but the real numbers were a 4.1 percent loss.
Biden lives off these numbers during the election cycle.
These job numbers are exactly what he pointed to in order to justify his narrative that the economy was going to be okay.
Surprise, it was just another lie.
