For a second I thought the highlighted one was a follow up comment from the real account, then I realised the parody one and the real one aren’t so different if you remove “parody” from the name 🙈 t.co/Q4xExA7dA7 pic.twitter.com/OSfslgyn0K

24 straight months of lying about payrolls.
Philadelphia Fed Admits US Payrolls Overstated By At Least 800,000
The first red flags emerged in the summer of 2022: that’s when the Biden Labor Department started well and truly rigging the labor market data.
Regular readers may recall that it was back in July of 2022, when we first warned that something had “snapped” in the labor market: that’s when a striking discrepancy emerged between the number of US Payrolls (as measured by the BLS’ Establishment Survey, a far more crude and imprecise, yet much more market-moving data series), and the number of actual Employed Workers (as measured by the BLS’ far more accurate Household Survey) . As we showed then, after the two series had tracked each other tick for tick for years, a wide gap opened in March 2022 which quickly grew to 1.5 million jobs in just 3 months…
… one which has since exploded to a whopping 5 million “employed workers” that apparently do not exist.
And while some of this discrepancy could be explained with the record surge in multiple jobholders, which increased by 1 million since March 2022 to an all time high of 8.6 million at the end of 2023 (as a reminder, the Establishment Survey counts 1 worker have 2 or 3 (or more) multiple jobs as, well, 2 or 3 (or more) separate jobs, even if it is just one worker trying to make ends meet under the roaring inflation of Bidenomics), most of the gap remained unexplained.
