President Donald Trump has come out swinging against Democrats on Monday morning after firing Bureau of Labor Statistics chief Dr. Erika McEntarfer last week for what he claims was “RIGGED” jobs data.

Taking to Truth Social Monday morning, Trump blamed the “radical left” for pushing what he called “RIGGED” and “CONCOCTED” data, comparing it to his longstanding belief that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

“Last weeks Job’s Report was RIGGED, just like the numbers prior to the Presidential Election were Rigged,” the president wrote. “That’s why, in both cases, there was massive, record setting revisions, in favor of the Radical Left Democrats. Those big adjustments were made to cover up, and level out, the FAKE political numbers that were CONCOCTED in order to make a great Republican Success look less stellar!!! I will pick an exceptional replacement. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAGA!”

Last week, Trump claimed that McEntarfer, the Joe Biden-appointed commissioner of the BLS, “faked” employment numbers during the 2024 campaign to boost then-Vice President Kamala Harris’s chances of winning. But he defeated Harris anyway and returned to office after the November election.
