Why did he have to imply he was firing her because "she faked the Jobs Numbers before the Election to try and boost Kamala’s chances of Victory"?
But she likely was. So that doesn’t hurt anything.

So, why do you call me out when I refer to the BLS jobs report? Again, you're a lying hypocrite. You always make a fool out of yourself...

Sounds reasonable..

Good thing our economy's performance doesn't rely on the outcomes of sports games. We might as well laugh as we get ready for predictable results.

"From now on, the BLS report will be released along with the hottest stablecoins in a drop on 8-chan by our new commissioner, "Q". Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Normally I would agree with you, but lately BLS numbers have been constantly "corrected" and have become worthless.

Didn’t realize Al Franken worked his way back into government service.

Then why was she still doing it after the election?
The conspiracy just doesn't make any sense.

If tweet fails to load, click here. This is Trump’s appointee to the BLS fwiw.

He doesn't think using a random number generator for monthly jobs reports undermines the statistical mission of the bureau even worse?

The most important aspect of this firing is how much melting is occurring over the termination of a government bureaucrat. People in the private sector are fired everyday for literally no given reason, simply an employee at risk and no one gives two shits.

This is where we're headed.... Erdogan, Jong Un esque.
Speaking of which Erdogan demanding rates be lowered didn't go well, and it won't here either, so long as the Congress runs massive deficits.
Deficits have to stop.

It's crazy that some here are still incapable of understanding he refuses to accept news that doesn't make him look good and he will always deny, deny, deny before ever admitting anything might not be perfect.

I think it's a little more than just that. If this was a bureaucrat that Trump had appointed, I don't think we'd be hearing as much. But that it's some kind of gender-neutral looking Biden appointee is why there's so much melt.
