BLS is not corrupted right now and if it becomes corrupted, it will be beyond obvious as those career statistician civil servants will resign en masse.

If any Democratic President had a year in office where they didn't add any jobs, they'd be being pressured to resign right now. 181,000 jobs in a whole year when he inherited the greatest jobs creation economy in US history is unbelievable.

Biden added 336,000 jobs a month on average. And his last year in office it was 184,000 jobs a month. 2.2 Million jobs added for Biden in 2024. 181,000 for Trump in 2025. He freaking nuked the job market.
