1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: That's not my signature and it's not the way I speak,

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: and anybody that's covered me for a long time, no,

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,480
Speaker 1: that's not my language. It's nonsense. And frankly, you're wasting

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: your time. All you do is trying to get off

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: the great success of DC and about two hundred other

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 1: things weeks under it so successful.

7
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson.

8
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 3: Good Wednesday morning.

9
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 4: It's so nice to have you with us on the

10
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 4: forty seven Morning Update, and we've got.

11
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 3: Two major stories for you.

12
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 4: Bombshell documents are now blowing wide open the Biden auto

13
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 4: pin scandal, and it's now putting a spotlight on who

14
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 4: may have been rund the country in the last year.

15
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 4: It wasn't the president, it could have been the Vice president,

16
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 4: Kamala Harris.

17
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 3: How do we know this.

18
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 4: Because the White House lawyers were talking about it in

19
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 4: emails that we now have. I'll give you all those

20
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 4: shocking details in just a moment. Also, we're finding out

21
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 4: just how bad the economy actually was under Joe Biden

22
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 4: and the people in charge of this statistics on job

23
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 4: numbers while they were lying in a partisan way that

24
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 4: we never have seen before, creating out of thin air,

25
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 4: literally millions of jobs that they knew were never filled.

26
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 4: But before we get to those stories, I want to

27
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 4: take a moment and I want to talk to you

28
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 4: real quick about what you can do to help the

29
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 4: people in Israel. It was nearly two years ago that

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 4: the terrorists murdered more than twelve hundred innocent Israelis and

31
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 4: they took two hundred and fifty hostages. Today it seems

32
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 4: as if the cries of the dead and dying have

33
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 4: been drowned out by the shouts of anti Semitism and

34
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 4: just pure hatred, not just in America but around the world.

35
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 4: And the most brutal attack on Jewish people happened. It

36
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 4: happened since the Holocausts, and now it's like they're trying

37
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 4: to act like it never happened. Now, this is where

38
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 4: it is important for us to stand with the people

39
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 4: in Israel. It's a movement of love and support for

40
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 4: the people of Israel, and this is where I want

41
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 4: you to get involved.

42
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: It is called Flags of Fellowship.

43
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 4: It's being organized by the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

44
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:14,800
Speaker 4: On October fifth, you can stand with Israel and the

45
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 4: victims proudly. Just a few weeks away, millions across America

46
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 4: will prayerfully plant an Israeli flag in honor and solidarity

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 4: with the victims of October the seventh, twenty twenty three,

48
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 4: and stand with their grieving families. You can be a

49
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 4: part of this movement as well. And that's what I

50
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 4: love about what IFCJ does. They're making sure that the

51
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 4: world knows there are lots of people of faith in

52
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 4: this country and friends and advocates for Israel.

53
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 3: They're going to stand with them.

54
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 4: You can get more information about how you can join

55
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 4: the Flags of Fellowship movement, including your church. There are

56
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 4: going to be countless churches around the country they're going

00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: to plant flags as well. So all you have to

58
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,280

65
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 4: It's the forty seven morning update and it starts right now.

66
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: Story number one.

67
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 4: New documents are blowing open the Biden autopen scandal and

68
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 4: now putting a serious spotlight on Kamala Harris. There are

69
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: newly uncovered internal documents that are shedding light on what

70
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 4: was going on at the White House on former President

71
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 4: Joe Biden's use so the auto pen and alleged outsourcing

72
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 4: quote unquote of decision making during his final year in office.

73
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 4: The former president has insisted that he personally made all

74
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 4: decisions regarding the pardon executive orders and calling claims the

75
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 4: contrary quote ridiculous and false. But the memos tell a

76
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 4: different story. The internal memos and emails indicate that critical decisions,

77
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 4: including clemencies, were quietly delegated to others, others who were

78
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 4: not elected officials, Others who were not the President of

79
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 4: the United States of America. Now one of the others

80
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 4: includes former Vice President Kamala Harris, and it remains unclear

81
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 4: whether Biden formally approves certain decisions. Multiple outlets are now

82
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 4: confirming this. Biden aides initially insisted that he personally signed

83
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 4: by hand any official presidential actions, but by the end

84
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 4: of his term, the standard had been abandoned. According to

85
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 4: an internal memo obtained by Just the News, based on

86
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 4: precedent from the Obama Biden administration, regarding which documents generally

87
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 4: are hand signed by the president, are recommend is that

88
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,839
Speaker 4: as a general rule, you quote unquote personally approve and

89
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 4: hand sign all decisions that require presidential actions. That is

90
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: what it says on a February twenty twenty one draft

91
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 4: memo distributed to top White House officials. Now, by February

92
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 4: of twenty twenty four, authorization for clemency actions increasingly relied

93
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 4: on the vice president's approval, not the actual president of

94
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 4: the United States of America. That according to a draft

95
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 4: memo circulated by the White House Counsel's office, Yes, that

96
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 4: would be the White House's lawyers quote. Given the President's schedule,

97
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,839
Speaker 4: it can often take days or weeks for the President

98
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 4: to review and approve the clemency package, the lawyer's memo read.

99
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,479
Speaker 4: The Chief of Staff's office has been helpful in getting

100
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 4: the paper in front of him for his review, he

101
00:05:56,160 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 4: previously asked the White House Council discussed the candidates with him,

102
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 4: although in the last round, the vice presidential approval was

103
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 4: sufficient to obtain his approval. The lawyers noted so again

104
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 4: in writing, the lawyers at Biden's White House were saying,

105
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 4: He's not running the show, it's the Vice president and others. Now,

106
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 4: the Trump White House concluded that this memo shows the

107
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 4: former president was effectively outsourcing clemency decision to Harris during

108
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 4: his final year, and, by the way, to put it

109
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,919
Speaker 4: in perspective, during his four years in the White House,

110
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 4: Biden granted an unprecedented four thousand, two hundred and forty

111
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 4: five acts of clemency, more than any previous president on record.

112
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 4: All of Biden's pardons from December to January, including those

113
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 4: of his family members as well as doctor Anthony Fauci

114
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 4: and General Martin Milly, were reportedly signed not by the President,

115
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 4: but signed by auto pen. In fact, there was only

116
00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 4: one preemptive pardon, one pardon that was signed by the president,

117
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 4: and that was for his son Hunter.

118
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 3: Biden.

119
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 4: Internal emails casts even furthered out on whether Biden approved

120
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 4: the commutations of more than two thousand, five hundred inmates

121
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 4: jailed for crack cocaine offenses in January. The New York

122
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 4: Post is now reporting, so what do we have more

123
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 4: evidence that the President of the United States of America,

124
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: Joe Biden, was not calling the shots and was not

125
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 4: actually even deciding who was getting pardons or clemency, which

126
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 4: brings up the bigger question are these pardons and clemency

127
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 4: actually legal? Now that is a question this administration is

128
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,119
Speaker 4: obviously looking into.

129
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 3: Now, Story number two, I want you to listen.

130
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 4: Very carefully to the numbers I'm about to give you,

131
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 4: and I want you to understand just how big the

132
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: lies were to act like the economy actually wasn't in

133
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 4: terrible shape when Democrats were in charge and they were

134
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 4: running for reelection, they just made up hundreds of thousands

135
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 4: of jobs.

136
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 3: We just got these new.

137
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 4: Numbers in that there was almost a million, nine hundred

138
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,800
Speaker 4: eleven thousand fewer jobs were created between April of twenty

139
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,559
Speaker 4: twenty four and March of twenty twenty five.

140
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 3: The Bureau of Labor Statistics is saying that isn't just

141
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 3: a revision.

142
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: That is a revision that is on a level that

143
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 4: clearly is straight up fraud.

144
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,559
Speaker 3: You don't get these numbers this wrong.

145
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 4: Look at polling when they have a margin of air

146
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 4: of plus or minus three percent, or if it's a

147
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,480
Speaker 4: bad pull four percent. If it's a horrific poll five percent,

148
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 4: you're telling me the federal government sucks so bad at

149
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 4: counting jobs same people, by the way, they're supposed to

150
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 4: be collecting taxes on these jobs, that they got it

151
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 4: wrong by nine hundred and eleven thousand jobs.

152
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 3: The answer is obviously no. What does this mean.

153
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 4: It means the labor market was weak, extremely weak, well

154
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 4: before the tariffs kicked in. The job market was frozen

155
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four as well. In fact, the average

156
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 4: job gain revision showed just one hundred and forty seven

157
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 4: thousand jobs per month. That is an average job gain

158
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 4: after revisions of seventy one thousand a month. Now, this

159
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 4: annual quote revision process is normal. What's not normal is

160
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: how big they're missing these numbers. The Bureau of Labor

161
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 4: Statistics does it every year, and they apparently just lie

162
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 4: when Democrats are in office.

163
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 3: I'll give you an example.

164
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 4: Last August, right in the heat of the election, the

165
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 4: labor the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported negative eight hundred

166
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 4: and eighteen thousand fewer jobs. Yes, these were large, massive

167
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 4: corruption revisions, is how I describe it. Why did this happen?

168
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 4: It happened because they wanted to say the economy isn't

169
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 4: as bad as it really was when Joe Biden was

170
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 4: running for reelection. So the takeaway, and this is what

171
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 4: I want you to really understand. Number one, Donald Trump

172
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 4: clearly inherited a massive mess. It is a absolute scandal

173
00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 4: of gigantic proportions that our government was lying to the

174
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,920
Speaker 4: American people trying to make you feel like things are

175
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 4: better than they actually are. Caroline Levitt, the White House

176
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 4: pre Secretary, said it this way.

177
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 3: Quote Today the Bureau of Laboratistics.

178
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 4: Released the largest downward revision on record in history. I'm

179
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 4: going to say that again, the Bureau of Labor Statistics

180
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 4: released the largest downward revision on record ever. Why did

181
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 4: this happen because they wanted Joe Biden to win? Carolin

182
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 4: Levitt said, it provides more understanding online. President Donald Trump

183
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 4: took action to address concerns about reporting accuracy at the Bureau,

184
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 4: with Levitt saying it proves that President Trump was right.

185
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 4: Biden's economy was a disaster and the Bureau of Labor

186
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 4: Statistics is straight up broken. The White House added quote,

187
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 4: this is exactly why we need new leadership to restore

188
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 4: trust and confidence in the death on behalf of the

189
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 4: financial markets, on behalf of businesses, policymakers, and families that

190
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 4: rely on this data to make major decisions. Now, the

191
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 4: White House on August first released a list of errors

192
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 4: and missions by the Bureau of Laboratistics.

193
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,359
Speaker 3: By the way, this is like their entire job, which.

194
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 4: Is accused of inaccuracies and also now in competency. And

195
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 4: the White House also pointing a finger at Commissioner Erica

196
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 4: Mickin Tarfer, who was appointed to the role by former

197
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 4: President Joe Biden. Among those examples, was not only them

198
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,679
Speaker 4: issuing another massive revision of these jobs, more than eight

199
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 4: hundred thousand were overestimated and what was the second largest

200
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 4: downward revision for the BLS as well.

201
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 3: And so this means two in a row.

202
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,719
Speaker 4: Okay, two years in a row they were lying to

203
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 4: you about how bad the numbers were, or they were

204
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: just making up literally almost two million jobs that didn't exist. Now,

205
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 4: Donald Trump fired Erica just hours after the release of

206
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 4: the July jobs which showed weaker than expected job growth

207
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,280
Speaker 4: and significant downward revisions for May and June. That's when

208
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 4: the Left was like, you can't do this as a

209
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 4: nonpartisan Well, it is partisan, clearly. It was because she

210
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 4: created two million jobs out of thin air to help

211
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 4: Joe Biden and the Democrats. The Labor Secretary, by the way,

212
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 4: posting on Tuesday that the negative drop of numbers from

213
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 4: the Bureau of Labor Satistics reveals a quote problem, saying

214
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 4: today's massive downward revision gives the American people even more

215
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 4: reason to doubt the integrity of data being published by

216
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 4: our government. It's imperative for the data to remain accurate, impartial,

217
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 4: and never altered for political gain. Now, within two weeks

218
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 4: of firing the individual who's overseeing this insanity, Trump also

219
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 4: named Heritage Foundation chief economists and Tony to lead the Bureau.

220
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 4: His nomination is also waiting Senate confirmation, something that I

221
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 4: think clearly should be done as soon as possible. Which

222
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 4: brings me to Steven Moore, former Trump campaign senior economic advisor.

223
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 4: You may know him from Fox News and Fox Business.

224
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 4: I want you to hear what he had to say

225
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 4: about the far fewer jobs added than expected in August,

226
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 4: and also when he says about the job report revisions

227
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: in general.

228
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 5: The week optimistic, We're going to see a rate cut

229
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 5: next week after we got the key jobs report for August,

230
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 5: the first one since President Trump fired the Commissioner of

231
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 5: the Bureau of Labor Statistics last month. There were questions

232
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 5: over the accuracy of the data, the report.

233
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 3: Showing much fewer.

234
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 5: Jobs added in August than expected, only twenty two thousand

235
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 5: versus the estimate of seventy five thousand, and the unemployment

236
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 5: rate now at its highest level since October of twenty

237
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 5: twenty one. We also got revisions showing twenty one thousand

238
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 5: fewer jobs created in June and July than previously reported.

239
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 5: For more on this and what it means for the

240
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 5: Fed's next move, I'm joining my Committee to Unleash Prosperity

241
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 5: co founder Steve Moore. Steve, it's great to see you

242
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 5: talk to me about your thoughts on this job's report.

243
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 5: Pretty big miss on the estimate.

244
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 6: Well sure, wise, but you know, it's interesting. I think

245
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 6: one of the takeaways from this report is how increasingly

246
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 6: unreliable these jobs numbers are. And you know, we talk,

247
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 6: you and I and Maria talk about this every first

248
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 6: Friday of every month, and we're seeing these gyrations in

249
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,439
Speaker 6: the numbers. And also one of the things that hasn't

250
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: been really widely reported is that there's two surveys. One

251
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 6: survey had a big increase in jobs by I think

252
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 6: I don't remember the exact number, close to three hundred thousand,

253
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 6: whereas the one that's reported the headline number was what

254
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 6: twenty eight thousand. So we need to clean up these numbers, Cheryl,

255
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 6: because it's we make so many economic decisions based on

256
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 6: these jobs numbers. And I've been doing this for thirty

257
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 6: five years. I think, look at the re estimates. They

258
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 6: keep changing the numbers every month.

259
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 4: I would ask you something, but by the way, you

260
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 4: listen to what Steve Moore says. He's saying, and it's true,

261
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 4: so many people make business decisions off of this data

262
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 4: and information. By the way, that's why this data is

263
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 4: supposed to be done by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

264
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 4: It's supposed to be non biased in the way that

265
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 4: it is done. And we have a very clear problem

266
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 4: here where there has been a massive politicization of these

267
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 4: numbers to try to help out democrats when they're running

268
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 4: for office. They created two million jobs that they knew

269
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 4: weren't there, just so the economy would look like it's

270
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 4: better than it actually is now. Also, I think the

271
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 4: American people understood how bad it was, and so they like,

272
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 4: that's why they voted for Donald Trump.

273
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 3: But it had to be really bad for them to

274
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 3: see it.

275
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 4: And so this is again one of the examples of

276
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 4: the massive lies of the left, and it's something that

277
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 4: absolutely should okay, it's something that should never ever, ever

278
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 4: ever happen, period, full stop. This is why Trump is

279
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 4: going after this, this is why there needs to be reformed.

280
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 3: It is truly insane.

281
