Trump is dismissing IRS Commissioner Billy Long, the sixth person to lead the agency THIS YEAR. Trump hasn't even been in office 7 full months yet. Bessent will be the 7th to lead the agency, in the absence of a named commissioner. Who will be the eighth?
Also, 25% of the employees are gone.

Welcome to the Land of Delusion.
The BLS did exactly what it's supposed to do: provide accurate, nonpartisan data. When the numbers showed Trump's "economic boom" was actually a bust (33k jobs vs claimed 291k), he fired the messenger. After all, when it rains too much, true leaders fire the meteorologists.

Today we were rear-ended by a Tesla in a parking lot. It was minor (thank God), but our car is 13 so it's concerning. She admitted fault & felt really bad. She was also annoyed & surprised that her Tesla didn't beep a warning. For me, this felt very timely.
