Yes. That's exactly what he's saying
Is Lutnick saying here that they are going to fire everyone at the BLS who isn’t cooking the books for Trump? That’s what he’s saying, right?
Lutnick says the jobs numbers "will get better because you'll take out the people who are just trying to create noise against the president ... this is gonna be the greatest growth economy six months from now, a year from today"

www.bloomberg.com/news/article... Who could have predicted this? Oh wait. EVERY economist or financial pro who understands, unlike our President, how tariffs work.
US Producer Prices Rise by Most in Three Years on Services
US wholesale inflation accelerated in July by the most in three years, suggesting companies are passing along higher import costs related to tariffs.

@dblesky.bsky.social It matters not this year because the 2025 Royals died an hour and a half ago in Miami. But, longer term, is anyone else alarmed that it looks like Erceg has lost 3 mph off his fastball?

@hawkkoh.bsky.social "It’s just yet another gut punch to a population that candidly has been abandoned by both sides of the aisle these days because it’s politically expedient." Both sides? Are you kidding? Have you fallen and hit your head or is that just a play to get more Fox appearances?

@saletan.bsky.social @eggerdc.bsky.social Your podcast Tuesday had so many strawmen it's amazing it didn't burst in to flames. There is not a single Dem elected, at the state or national level, treating the car burners as "misbehaving members of their coalition."

This belongs in the Bluesky Hall of Fame.
Every now and then I just pause and think that … we could have just elected Kamala Harris, and we’d still have an economy that was the strongest in the world; we’d still have an American-led trans-Atlantic order; we’d be assured that our universities would remain the envy of the world; … (1/x)

Of course they do. We're doomed.
69% of white evangelical Christians say the ethical standards of the Trump administration are “excellent” or “good,” according to a new poll.
White evangelicals continue to stand out in their support for Trump
Most White evangelicals (72%) say they approve of how Trump is doing as president. Other religious groups are more divided or disapprove.

I'm a big @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social fan. But he let Kernan deflect on the issue at hand. Any idiot can see that a Harris economy would have just been the parts that made the US the "envy of the world". And none of the catastrophically dumb tariff and supply chain disruptions. tinyurl.com/2s46k5np

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social I'm sorry but I only made it through 20 minutes of your Focus Group pod before turning it off screaming. Those in the group were a toxic stew of gullible (parroting Trump's nonsense talking points), stupid and arrogant. JVL is right. Not sure how we recover from this.
