Don't buy the lies! The feds are LYING about the job market and US economy



The Biden administration isn’t shy when it comes to boasting about how many jobs it’s created — but maybe it should be.

The administration has quietly — and conveniently — deleted 439,000 jobs from its 2023 job reports. This means that almost a quarter of all jobs added in 2023 didn’t even exist in the first place.

Former investment banker Carol Roth cites a saying attributed to Mark Twain in response: “There are three types of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics.”

“The data is bastardized, and I would argue not even relevant to how our country’s economy is run,” Roth tells Glenn Beck, noting that this is all either odd, lazy, or nefarious.

“Those are your three choices,” she adds.

Meanwhile, there’s a record-high number of 8.7 million people holding down multiple jobs.

“Those are things that would make you scratch your head and say, ‘That’s moving in the wrong direction,’” Roth says.

While government jobs make up much of the recent hiring, Roth says it's “not sustainable.”

“Those don’t have the same level of productivity because they are paid for by our tax dollars and or the printing of money,” Roth explains.

According to Glenn, 216,000 jobs were added in December, and 52,000 of those were government jobs.

“Which brought us to an all-time high of 23 million employees for the federal government,” Glenn says, shocked. “It’s an astounding, astounding number.”

Michelle Obama claims she's 'terrified' for upcoming election. Here's why



Michelle Obama is very concerned about the 2024 election, and it’s starting to sound like the former first lady might have something in store herself for 2024.

“The things that keep me up because you don’t have control over them, and you wonder where are people, where are we in this, you know, where are our hearts, what’s going to happen in this next election,” she told Jay Shetty on the "On Purpose" podcast.

“I am terrified about what could possibly happen, because our leaders matter. Who we select, who speaks for us, who holds that bully pulpit — it affects us in ways that sometimes I think people take for granted,” Michelle added.

Sara Gonzales is not amused.

“Yeah, we know, which is why it’s a problem that we have a walking vegetable that is apparently controlling the bully pulpit,” she comments.

Entrepreneur and investor Carol Roth thinks Michelle has something else up her sleeve.

“I watched this and the first thing that popped into my head is, ‘She’s running,’” Roth tells Gonzales. “All of a sudden they’re trotting out Michelle Obama, who we haven’t seen in a very long time.”

“If she keeps popping up, that’s going to terrify me,” she adds.
