A poorly-informed person like @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social might take this to mean "Powell thinks the government is fudging the numbers". That is not the case. Powell is referring to a mechanical revisions process that is driven by the methodology of estimating payrolls. Let's walk through that.

Okay this is going to be long so mute it if you don't want a granular explanation but first: SHAME on @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social for misrepresenting what Chair Powell said in order to pat himself on the back. Shame on you.

The late night Truth Social tantrum is coming.
Quite the day for Trump: The defeat below, the defeat in Indiana, the defeat on the latest Letitia James case, the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, really bad poll numbers (his handling of the economy numbers threatening to fall into the 20s) He's losing it politically as fast as he is mentally.
Say it again for the folks in the back: "The first time the House has voted to overturn a Trump executive order in this term." 🙌

Significant statement from Jeffries and House Democratic leaders saying they will vote “present” on the motion to table Al Green’s resolution to impeach President Trump. They say they’re “laser-focused on fighting to lower the high cost of living” plus on health care and corruption.

This is a really disturbing story on several levels and certainly anyone who interacts with the Pentagon specifically or the administration more generally should read it:
I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.

For the Spurs, tonight's victory in L.A. broke a string of 14 consecutive losses against Luka Doncic.
Before tonight, Spurs' last win vs. Luka came April 11, 2021 when Doncic was with Dallas.
Only one player appeared in both of those games for the Spurs: Keldon Johnson.

The Supreme Court justices should have protesters outside their homes.
IF YOU WANTED to design a quiet coup in a republic that still mouths the words “checks & balances,” you wouldn’t roll tanks down Penn. Avenue. You’d hand a volatile president a match, dress it up as “Article II,” and watch six robed partisans strike it against the wiring of the administrative state.
The Roberts Court Poised to Crown King Donald—with the Last Independent Agencies Headed to Slaughter
SCOTUS case Trump v. Slaughter lets a president fire through independent agencies, gut Congress’s guardrails, and put every regulator on a loyalty leash.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

Something every 2026/28 Dem should commit to is investigations of any company that did deals with Trump. A kind of forward guidance to get companies to think twice in advance of what’s coming.
