January was under Biden as the survey reference period is the 12th of the month, prior to when Trump was re-inaugurated.

Your numbers for 2024 are wrong regardless. December 2023 job total was 156,857,000. December 2024 was 158,316,000. That's an increase of 1,459,000, or 121,600 per month.

I assume there have been additional revisions to the data since the passage you quoted was written.
