One of the many problems of the Biden-Harris time in office is their refusal to accept reality on critical issues.
They denied inflation was happening. Then when it was undeniable, they blamed everyone else and refused to admit how their policies sparked it. They denied that the Afghanistan withdrawal was a disaster, then lied about not leaving until they got everyone out. They claimed until this January that the “border was secure”; then, they immediately flipped around and blamed Republicans after denying there was ever any issue.
It’s a feature not a bug with Biden and Harris. But they just got nailed on another big whopper with the latest jobs report, as we wrote.

So while Biden and Harris have been trying to tout job numbers, they’ve been false numbers.
How did the Biden team respond to this news?
Well, let’s check in with Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo who was asked about this at the DNC on ABC. She was asked if she thought these new numbers could be a “potential liability for this [the Harris-Walz] campaign.”
Reporter: Nearly a million jobs “created” since Kamala took office do not exist.
Raimondo: “I don’t believe it because I’ve never heard Trump say anything truthful.”
Reporter: “It is from the Bureau of Labor.”
Raimondo: “I’m not familiar with that.”pic.twitter.com/UFKJiwWuPZ

She immediately deflected to Donald Trump, “I don’t believe it because I’ve never heard Trump say anything truthful..”
Um, Gina? Have you checked your boss lately? The guy who lies like he breathes? Or Kamala Harris who also can’t seem to find the truth?
But then when the reporter said that the statistics came from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Raimondo’s answer was embarrassing. “I’m not familiar with that,” she responded.
How bad is this team? Either she’s lying or she’s ignorant of the report that she should know about as the Secretary of Commerce. That says so much about the Biden team. It also says a lot that once again it’s Trump who is right, while the Biden team resorts to hiding behind its own ignorance/incompetence.
It’s an indication that the economy is in deeper trouble than had previously been thought, while the Harris-Biden team has been trying to gaslight us with false numbers. You truly can’t trust anything they say because so much of it isn’t real.

I mean, holy crap…
This is the current US Secretary of Commerce.
To be unaware of this report that rewrote very jobs report the Biden Administration has trumpeted over the last year… speechless
If she’s lying in such a bald face manner… also speechless
