"Take the noise out. Meaning, if the leader is bent against Donald Trump then they're going to have such errors, and those things are bent, Lutnick said. He continued: We've seen this in all sorts of agencies throughout the government, the people, the holdovers from the Biden administration, which is, they're just bent against the president's success.They're rooting against America and against Donald Trump, and that's got to end."
"We've seen this in all sorts of agencies throughout the government, the people, the holdovers from the Biden administration, which is, they're just bent against the president's success.They're rooting against America and against Donald Trump, and that's got to end. So, he can't replace somebody, you know, two weeks ago and you expect fundamental change. But what you will get is an agency that's on side, just trying to do the best and put out the correct numbers."
Howard Lutnick attributed August’s weak jobs numbers to naysayers and holdovers he says remain in federal agencies. He supported President Trump’s removal of Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Erika McEntarfer after disputed July data. Lutnick urged removing employees he characterized as 'bent' against Trump to eliminate errors and restore correct reporting. He said holdovers from the Biden administration are rooting against America and Trump. Lutnick acknowledged that replacing officials takes time but argued that installing aligned personnel will produce agencies 'on side' that attempt to produce accurate numbers. He framed personnel shifts as necessary for American success.
