KJP “Gets Busted” on X after Making Astounding Claims

Though her press briefing performances are often what draw conservative scorn, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre’s X (formerly Twitter) posts are nothing to write home about either, as a series of community notes corrections about her jobs claims made painfully obvious.

Particularly, the community notes corrections came from her claim that the Biden Administration had “created” a massive number of jobs since Biden became president, a statistic lacking context because many of those jobs were not “created” but rather recovered from the Covid lockdowns and job market chaos that those caused.

In one tweet, KJP claimed that over 14 million jobs had been created under the Biden Administration, saying, “Today, we got more good economic news. 199,000 jobs created last month. A total of 14.1 million created under President Biden. That’s Bidenomics in action.” Stepping in to add some context, community notes added, “It is well documented that nearly 72% of job gains since 2021 are simply jobs recovered that were lost during the pandemic, not created.” Dinesh D’Souza, mocking her fact check, said, “She lies. Gets busted. Then lies again.

The House Budget Committee, explaining what is wrong with the statistic cited by the Biden Administration in a June report, said, “Nearly 72 percent of all job gains since 2021 were simply jobs that were being recovered from the pandemic, not new job creation. In fact, when looking at today’s economy compared to pre-pandemic levels, employment is up only by 3.7 million. On the other hand, prior to the pandemic, job creation under President Trump was 6.7 million—3 million more jobs than the current President.
