Fed Governor Resigns from Board, Don to Fill Vacancy
-
The US President Donald Trump on Friday removed the head of the agency that produces the monthly jobs figures after a report showed hiring slowed in July and was much weaker in May and June than previously reported.
Trump, in a post on his social media platform, alleged that the figures were manipulated for political reasons and said that Erika McEntarfer, the director of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, who was appointed by former President Joe Biden, should be fired. He provided no evidence for the charge.
"I have directed my team to fire this Biden political appointee, immediately," Trump said on Truth Social. "She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified." Trump later posted: "In my opinion, today's Jobs Numbers were rigged in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad."
