Original Note:
Powell said that payrolls data may be overstated, but he did not blame the White House - which did not produce these statistics - or accuse anyone of deliberately "cooking the books". He's referring to a discrepancy between two different datasets both produced by the BLS. https://www.wsj.com/articles/transcript-fed-chief-jerome-powells-postmeeting-press-conference-a3f10e2c https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-06/us-payroll-gains-not-as-robust-as-reported-new-data-suggest
