"WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 presidential election? MIRAN: Thank you, Senator Warren. Joe Biden was certified by Congress as the president of the United States. WARREN: Right, so did Donald Trump lose that election? MIRAN: Um, as I just said, Joe Biden was WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose that election? Can you say the words, Donald Trump lost that election? Are you independent enough to say that. MIRAN: The Congress certified Joe Biden. WARREN: Wooo, all right. So, that was one."
"WARREN: The Federal Reserve relies on accurate monetary policy, including data produced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. President Trump recently fired the BLS commissioner, alleging she faked the jobs numbers before the election to try to boost Kamala's chances of victory. Do you agree with President Trump, that the BLS published fake numbers to manipulate the outcome of the 2024 presidential election? MIRAN: Thank you for the question, Ranking Member Warren."
Stephen Miran was nominated by President Trump to fill Adriana Kugler's unfinished Federal Reserve board term and serves as chair of the Council of Economic Advisers. He appeared before the Senate Finance Committee where Senator Elizabeth Warren pressed him on independence from presidential influence. Warren repeatedly asked whether Donald Trump lost the 2020 presidential election; Miran replied that Joe Biden was certified by Congress and avoided explicitly saying Trump lost. Warren then questioned Miran about President Trump's firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner and whether the BLS published fake jobs numbers to manipulate the 2024 election; Miran began to address data quality before the exchange continued.
