He didn't like the truth, so he fired her and will replace her with someone who tells him (and the country) what he wants to hear.
Aug 2, 2025
(CBS NEWS) U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer defended President Trump's decision to fire a key official responsible for employment reports, telling CBS News on Friday that Mr. Trump has "real concerns" about the accuracy of federal economic data.

Greer spoke to "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan" hours after the monthly jobs report showed a hiring slowdown in July and revised down earlier reports for May and June. Mr. Trump reacted by firing Commissioner of Labor Statistics Erika McEntarfer, claiming — without evidence — Friday's jobs numbers were "RIGGED."

"You know, even last year during the campaign, there were enormous swings in the jobs numbers, and so it sounds to me like the president has real concerns," Greer told CBS News, adding that Mr. Trump's issues with government labor data extend beyond Friday's report.

"You want to be able to have somewhat reliable numbers. There are always revisions, but sometimes you see these revisions go in really extreme ways," said Greer.

That is what dictators do. These lying enablers of his don't fool anyone that isn't already in his thrall.

He is utterly ridiculous.

When he does replace the Fed chair Powell (and his ego will do it) the consequences will be inescapable with investors.

Likely the only approved grants will be ones that support his viewpoints, conspiracy theories etc. Real science, not so much.

They are against science and education, because it's a threat to their regime. If it doesn't benefit the military or his dominance, it's got to go. He's taking cues from dictators throughout history, they want dumb people, in fear of their lives, working the fields and factories for a pittance.

They are especially against medical research and vaccines, because they want to kill off a lot of the population (any slaves they can't make money from, who have no money he can take). I was reading yesterday that he cut over $500 million in medical research money from UCLA.

It's going to be very difficult to get this regime out and it probably isn't going to happen without violence.

Also mRNA vaccine research. There's a very promising mRNA cancer vaccine that has shown success in animal studies, but that may not happen now with all funding for mRNA vaccine research halted. They claim mRNA vaccines are "under tested" and were "rushed out". I guess 30 years of research wasn't enough. The only thing "rushed" was the specific use case for Covid. Quick development of new mRNA vaccines is one of the reasons it's better than the older vaccine technologies. So their logic is, not enough research = no more funding for research :crazy:

Their logic is twisted, towards ulterior motives. It is not otherwise logical.

Other countries will pick up the torch for vaccine research. European countries, Canada. The big pharma labs in Europe (e.g. Pfizer) don't need the U.S.

Scientists have been defecting from the U.S. too.

Here's about the most plausible conspiracy theory I've seen, on a mechanism Trump and Musk could have used to mess with the voting machines:

https://thiswillhold.substack.com/p/she ... change-the
The missing votes uncovered in Smart Elections’ legal case in Rockland County, New York, are just the tip of the iceberg—an iceberg that extends across the swing states and into Texas.

On Monday, an investigator’s story finally hit the news cycle: Pro V&V, one of only two federally accredited testing labs, approved sweeping last-minute updates to ES&S voting machines in the months leading up to the 2024 election—without independent testing, public disclosure, or full certification review.
These changes were labeled “de minimis”—a term meant for trivial tweaks. But they touched ballot scanners, altered reporting software, and modified audit files—yet were all rubber-stamped with no oversight.

That revelation is a shock to the public.
But for those who’ve been digging into the bizarre election data since November, this isn’t the headline—it’s the final piece to the puzzle. While Pro V&V was quietly updating equipment in plain sight, a parallel operation was unfolding behind the curtain—between tech giants and Donald Trump.

And it started with a long forgotten sale.

Skim the article for more explanation. I can't say this is true, but it does fit.

It is plausible, based on his history if he thought he could get away with it he'd probably do it. When he lost to Biden in 2020 he was making calls trying to get an election official to find some more votes.

Yes, and he did SAY something to the effect that "Musk has intimate knowledge of the voting machines... and look, I won!". At the time it was treated like the musings of a drunken uncle but every awful thing he threw out while he was on the campaign trail, that nobody believed he could/would do, are things he's doing.

The 2020 "find me some votes", but also, before the votes were even finalized the creep was demanding that they stop counting votes, because he had enough, he "won". I think the reason he was so incredulous at losing was because they cheated, and lost anyway.

And all the while he was claiming that "Biden stole the election" despite zero evidence and multiple recounts in an attempt to appease him. I wonder what he'll say if he's eventually found guilty of stealing the election and his past claims against Biden are thrown in his face :)

He'll say it's all a conspiracy orchestrated by the Biden Crime Family, to run him out of his rightful office, and he's being treated worse than any president ever, or... he'll be dead by the time that ever happens anyway, and he knows it. He doesn't give a fuck what he says or does, or what anybody thinks of it. It is really quite a dangerous situation, with the way this cartoon villain is usurping and consolidating power.

The reason I mock, is because this is an occupation, a show of force, not an anti-crime measure. They are taking over everything, even when the local police initiate traffic stops. Humvees pull up and militarized federal agents get out and bully everyone, and "you better get used to it".

He has said that he can do this in other cities too. It's the start of getting people used to military police state rule for society. It won't be content to stop there either.

Debating MAGA would be like arguing with squawking gulls.

It's not like vaccines are anything new, the testing periods are shorter now because they know what to do, and what to look for. It IS your choice if you don't want the vaccines, however, then nobody wants you around them. Those are the consequences. Not even intentionally "consequences", it's simply social shunning, to protect the herd.

As always, everything Trump does is a show of force. Fuck him... if he's not reigned in, there is going to be a lot of suffering in the world. He doesn't care about making enemies and starting wars, or starting wars to expand territory, he knows he'll be dead before any consequences ever touch him. As long as he punishes people he hates and enriches himself, that's all he cares about.

His idea of "peace" in Ukraine will be them settling for sovereignty in name only, with Russian hegemony much like in the Soviet days, while Trump and his cronies get lucrative deals.

Ignorance is celebrated, that stupid asshole probably has very narrow, disingenuous information streams (like some moronic faecesbook group for jesus or something)

It's funny how they try to blame Obama for everything. I was reading today, that they are trying to find a way to prosecute him for opening the Russian election interference investigation near the end of his term, which showed without a doubt, that Russia was engaged in propaganda and tomfoolery, even officials in the new Trump 2016 government supported the conclusion, like Marco Fucking Rubio.

Tulsi Gabbard says that Obama is guilty of a treasonous conspiracy. Other parrots are saying he must be prosecuted ("this must be done"). These people just never quit... Trump is sore that he will always be outdone by a black man, who got a Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump is like a religion to them (MAGA cult), and there actually is a religious connection to all of this, the 'religious right'.

It's probably the largest, most dangerous cult in the world, now. Religion is foolish, and in the U.S. it's blatant hypocrisy.

In a rare move for a U.S. public official, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., called for a paper that found no link between aluminum in vaccines and disease to be retracted. The journal rejected the request

Of course he did, the worms are eating into his brain. I hope they are rudely mocking him for his demand, and cursing.

The administration also seeks to take the Covid vaccine off the market in the U.S., the evil cunts. RFKunt is working on it.

Now the "Ministry of Truth" is going after Wikipedia

Republicans investigate Wikipedia over allegations of organized bias:
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5473 ... publicans/
Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) and Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), chair of the panel’s subcommittee on cybersecurity, information technology, and government innovation, on Wednesday sent an information request on the matter to Maryana Iskander, chief executive officer of the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit that hosts Wikipedia.
...
...
Wikipedia has long faced accusations of its entries having a political bias, with the right-leaning Manhattan Institute releasing a report in 2024 that found Wikipedia entries are more likely to attach a negative sentiment to right-leaning terms.
Typical James Comer, always fishing for excuses to start weaponized investigations on people.

I've never noticed any kind of bias in Wikipedia, but I also don't often use it for political stuff. I have seen political bias in another prominent organization though - Fox :)
