News summary

Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo faced widespread criticism after she expressed unfamiliarity with a significant jobs report indicating that nearly 818,000 jobs were overestimated in the U.S. economy. During an interview on ABC News, Raimondo dismissed the report’s accuracy, attributing it to misinformation from former President Donald Trump, stating, 'I’ve never heard Trump say anything truthful.' When pressed by the reporter about the report's origin from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, she replied, 'I’m not familiar with that.' This response has drawn sharp rebukes from Republicans and commentators, who labeled it as a demonstration of incompetence, especially given her role overseeing economic data. Critics highlighted that this was the largest downward revision since the financial crisis of 2009, further questioning the Biden administration's economic management. Social media reactions have been overwhelmingly negative, with users expressing disbelief at her lack of knowledge about a major economic report.
