President Can’t Handle Bad News absolutely hated July’s jobs report, so—right on cue—he did what any insecure autocrat would do: “fired” the messenger and then had a full-blown meltdown on Lies Social, screaming into the void like the economy personally insulted him.

I was just informed that our Country’s “Jobs Numbers” are being produced by a Biden Appointee, Dr. Erika McEntarfer, the Commissioner of Labor Statistics, who faked the Jobs Numbers before the Election to try and boost Kamala’s chances of Victory. This is the same Bureau of Labor Statistics that overstated the Jobs Growth in March 2024 by approximately 818,000 and, then again, right before the 2024 Presidential Election, in August and September, by 112,000. These were Records — No one can be that wrong? We need accurate Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified. Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can’t be manipulated for political purposes. McEntarfer said there were only 73,000 Jobs added (a shock!) but, more importantly, that a major mistake was made by them, 258,000 Jobs downward, in the prior two months. Similar things happened in the first part of the year, always to the negative. The Economy is BOOMING under “TRUMP” despite a Fed that also plays games, this time with Interest Rates, where they lowered them twice, and substantially, just before the Presidential Election, I assume in the hopes of getting “Kamala” elected – How did that work out? Jerome “Too Late” Powell should also be put “out to pasture.” Thank you for your attention to this matter!
President Can’t Handle a Crisis—even when he’s the one who caused it—insisted, straight from his fantasy land, that the “Jobs Numbers were Rigged” to make Republicans and “ME” look bad. Because of course, it’s always a conspiracy when reality doesn’t flatter him.
The text:
In my opinion, today’s Jobs Numbers were RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad — Just like when they had three great days around the 2024 Presidential Election, and then, those numbers were “taken away” on November 15, 2024, right after the Election, when the Jobs Numbers were massively revised DOWNWARD, making a correction of over 818,000 Jobs — A TOTAL SCAM. Jerome “Too Late” Powell is no better! But, the good news is, our Country is doing GREAT!

He added more rants on Sunday…
And this morning.
President Lying Liar That Lies is—wait for it—lying. Shocking, I know. Try to contain your surprise.
The TOTAL SCAM…
Not gonna lie—trying to find the info I needed on Google this morning was a mess. It’s turning into hot garbage for researchers. Too much detail? It short-circuits. Not enough? You get next to nothing. But with ChatGPT’s help, I finally tracked down the report I knew was out there.
Bls.gov: Current Employment Statistics–CES:
In accordance with usual practice, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is announcing the preliminary estimate of the upcoming annual benchmark revision to the establishment survey employment series. The final benchmark revision will be issued in February 2025 with the publication of the January 2025 Employment Situation news release.
Each year, the Current Employment Statistics (CES) survey employment estimates are benchmarked to comprehensive counts of employment for the month of March. These counts are derived from state unemployment insurance (UI) tax records that nearly all employers are required to file. For National CES employment series, the annual benchmark revisions over the last 10 years have averaged plus or minus one-tenth of one percent of total nonfarm employment. The preliminary estimate of the benchmark revision indicates an adjustment to March 2024 total nonfarm employment of -818,000 (-0.5 percent).
Preliminary benchmark revisions are calculated only for the month of March 2024 for the major industry sectors in table 1. The existing employment series are not updated with the release of the preliminary benchmark estimate. The data for all CES series will be updated when the final benchmark revision is issued.

CNBC News (08/21/2024):
The U.S. economy created 818,000 fewer jobs than originally reported in the 12-month period through March 2024, the Labor Department reported Wednesday.
As part of its preliminary annual benchmark revisions to the nonfarm payroll numbers, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said the actual job growth was nearly 30% less than the initially reported 2.9 million from April 2023 through March of this year.
CNBC News (08/21/2024).
The dates the data covered actually matter—shocking, I know—since McEntarfer was confirmed by the Senate in January 2024, a whole two-ish months before the annual benchmark report dropped. Clearly, plenty of time to mastermind an entire data conspiracy, right?

Prior to her being confirmed as the Commissioner, the person in charge was William Wiatrowski.
BLS.gov. posted his bio that was last updated in October of 2024:
He is now once again the acting Commissioner with the firing of McEntarfer.
As to the greatest jobs report ever released before an election…
BLS.gov released the jobs report for October, on November 1st, 2024:
So, let’s connect the dots—MAGA’s favorite hobby when they think it’ll make Democrats look bad (though oddly, they struggle with even straight-line dots when it comes to their cult leader). The CES benchmark update? It didn’t come out on November 15th, 2024. The person running the show for most of that stretch wasn’t McEntarfer, but Acting Commissioner Wiatrowski. And that so-called “bestest ever” jobs report supposedly cooked up to help Kamala Harris? Yeah—it wasn’t even close. But don’t let facts get in the way of a good conspiracy meltdown.
I cannot stress enough how fucked up this is. I’m sure y’all are aware, so I just leave it at that.
The President has weighed-in on the Sydney Sweeney jeans ad, three times…
They deleted the post and he's now replaced it to spell her name right.

They deleted the second post to correct the misspelling of her, then deleted the post again to replace with this:
Just to clarify: the sitting President of the United States needed three tries to properly rage about a jeans ad—for jeans that aren’t even made in America—that I haven’t seen and couldn’t care less about, just to get his rant just right.
This is an open thread
PS.
I think tomorrow’s post will be “HOTTER” than today’s post!
