Trump Cuts Federal Labor Force to Lowest Level Since the 1960s as Private Sector Surges


White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt posted on social media, “In President [Donald] Trump’s second term, 615,000 private sector jobs have been added while federal employment has declined to its lowest level since 1966 — and the lowest level in recorded history as a share of the total workforce.” Antoni responded to the new jobs numbers, posting on X, “THIS is the real story out of today’s jobs report – Trump was handed an economy that was losing private sector jobs and adding gov’t payrolls, but he successfully flipped the script, and one year later it’s all private sector growth while cutting gov’t jobs.” THIS is the real story out of today’s jobs report – Trump was handed an economy that was losing private sector jobs and adding gov’t payrolls, but he successfully flipped the script, and one year later it’s all private sector growth while cutting gov’t jobs: pic.twitter.com/R5r5EHgzqk — E.J.
