U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics chief Erika Groshen because he was disappointed with the employment growth rate. A report from her department showed that 73,000 jobs were added last month. Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social: "We need accurate numbers. I have instructed my team to fire Biden's political appointee immediately. She will be replaced with someone more competent."
