From Fox Business: American-born job growth surged by close to 2 million in the last 12 months as jobs among foreign-born individuals declined during the same period, according to data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
The number of native-born Americans aged 16 and over increased between July 2024, under the Biden administration, and July 2025 by 1,998,000, an increase of 1.52 percent.
The total number of native-born Americans holding jobs in July was 133,035,000 as compared to 131,037,000 for the same month in 2024. This is further up from 131,037,000 in June, a difference of 383,000.
Simultaneously, the number of foreign-born individuals 16 and over holding jobs in the U.S. decreased by nearly half a million, 452,000, from July 2024 to the same month in 2025. The number of foreign-born jobs in the U.S. in July was 32,066,000, down from 32,518,000 in the same month last year, a 1.39 percent decrease.
Notably, however, BLS data indicates there were 54,000 more foreign-born jobs in June than there were in July 2024.
CNN even allowed Trump advisor Stephan Miran to announcement the stunning results on live television:

Holy. Shit.
I thought this was a typo…
In the last 4 months, native-born Americans have gained 1.8 MILLION jobs. Meanwhile, 1.5 Million foreign-born workers (legal and illegal) lost a job.
