Trump needs an “Enemy within Czar” who goes around firing all Obama/Biden/Bush holdovers.
But if all holdovers were fired immediately, then they would run out of scapegoats

Who knows. Whatever the issue is…
You know how it’s Biden’s fault and it’s Biden’s people causing the problems.

Shrug. The BLS has gotten this shite wrong for years.
Whether or not Trump is firing her as a scapegoat is immaterial to me. She fricking sucks at her job.

Either way. Better to keep people in place that you can put the blame on later.
Edit - I don’t know the details of the numbers being correct or incorrect. I’m just talking pure politics angle.

It's all a dog and pony show but as you can see here and at DU, it works on 97% of the population.

Hahaha. Priceless. Nobody is melting, but it seems like you are getting to get a little worked up over it for some reason.
Trump is firing the person responsible for job numbers, which objectively looks like he is firing the messenger for bad news. That’s Karen behavior.
I think he should keep blaming her for every report and just discredit the numbers. That’s the smarter political play.

Not it is not. This person has put a positive bias on every single report. This is what incompetence looks like.
More than 2k people work for the BLS, but you really believe one person sits in a locked room and decides whether the number should be 4.2%, 4.1% or 4.0%. As if the director is the sole person who supplies labor statistics. To believe one person can deliberately manipulate the data is a suspension of critical thinking skills that only exists amongst the tin foil hat crowd.

More than 2 thousand people and they frick up a monthly report routinely.
A statistics office.
I guess she deserved a bonus instead.

Bureau of Labor Statistics
Haha. I very briefly worked for this agency right out of college. He should fire all of them honestly. The whole organization could easily be replaced with a $1,400 laptop and some code.
