President Trump has called for the resignation of Erica Groshen, former chief of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, accusing her of manipulating employment data to favor Kamala Harris in the lead-up to the 2024 election. Trump alleges that Groshen inflated job numbers to create a false impression of economic prosperity. In a separate but related development, Trump also urged Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to step down from his position. He claims Powell strategically lowered interest rates before the election for political gain, influencing the economy to benefit Harris's campaign. These accusations, though unsubstantiated, raise questions about the perceived independence and integrity of key economic institutions. The White House has yet to comment on the matter. ```
