Trump’s 5-year plan is proceeding perfectly, with record harvests as far as the eye can see!

They have had their own narrative from the outset. Now they are more actively hiding the numbers that would refute it. And many Americans are not used to standing up for their own judgment or even lived experience.

Yes, Trump is actively changing the statistics, after firing BLS Commissioner McEntarfer, and hiring someone willing to literally cook the books.

It is such a failure of our media that they don’t just stop interviews where Republicans flagrantly lie. “We are not going to continue this discussion if you are going to continue to lie. We are talking past each other and if you are going to be here and act in bad faith, this interview is over.”

Next week, probably: “Unemployment is at negative Trump percent. All hail Dear Leader. Buy crypto.”

Labor secretary hails Trump move to fire BLS chief by Sylvan Lane - 08/01/25 4:42 PM ET https://thehill.com/business/5432857-trump-fires-bls-commissioner Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer praised President Trump’s decision to fire the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) after the Friday release of the July jobs report. In a statement on social media, Chavez-DeRemer hailed Trump’s decision to fire BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer after the agency, which is housed in the Labor Department, released a stunningly bad jobs report earlier Friday. “I agree wholeheartedly with @POTUS that our jobs numbers must be fair, accurate, and never manipulated for political purposes,” Chavez-DeRemer wrote without offering any evidence to support Trump’s claim. “A recent string of major revisions have come to light and raised concerns about decisions being made by the Biden-appointed Labor Commissioner,” she continued. “I support the President’s decision to replace Biden’s Commissioner and ensure the American People can trust the important and influential data coming from BLS.” While McEntarfer was appointed by former President Biden to lead the BLS, she had previously served for more than 20 years in the federal government in administrations led by both Democrats and Republicans.
