I think it very odd that private industry lost 30K+ jobs meanwhile overall jobs rose 147K, even with all the DOGE government cuts to personnel, even with their cuts that would've benefitted state programs causing state & local layoffs. What exactly is doing so well to offset all of this?

The ADP numbers are based on their role as a gigantic payroll company. It doesn't ever exactly line up with the government report. That said, who can trust anything *this* government puts out. So we only have the less perfect third party data, which I trust much more!
