U.S. economy only adds 73,000 jobs in July 2025; Big downward revision (258,000 jobs!) for previous two months; Trump fires Commissioner of BLS

"Don't get cute with us." As Trump took a victory lap at the groundbreaking for a $10 billion Foxconn plant in Wisconsin, he had a stern message for Harley-Davidson: "Please build those beautiful motorcycles in the United States." https://cnn.it/2z2loj9

That's a crazy approach, because it also leads to layoffs in the private sector and then we go into recession. There has already been 806,000 layoffs so far this year in the United States.

How else was he going to get the rate cuts? You were so quick to call me MAGA when I was just pointing out what was taking place.

Trump needs the rate cuts to help pay for the tax cuts. The tax cuts and rate cuts will lead to all this development talk in the background. All these companies/countries saying they’re going to invest is going to take place. They just need the rate cuts.


Trump is a terrible president, but there is someone there making sure all these things are lining up for him.. outside of all the rhetoric.

Another thing: Vegas used to be a place many people took their families.

People are having less families. Additionally costs for families don’t make things like Vegas trips easy.

Yes, all comes back to our economy and cost of living being absolutely shytty.

I also want to mention Trump failed to make money running a casino. A casino. Only fitting Vegas folding under dude’s administration :mjlol::heh:

Idk if it was said but online and more local casinos have to also be hurting Vegas.

nikkas can just lose thousands from the comfort of they own home

What I hate is that Trump is asking a lot of good businesses to change the way they more doing things by implementing rules and making threats on a higher level.

If people know abstraction, the higher level should have not much interaction with the finer implementation details unless things are going horrible and tough decisions got to be made.

Trump and this administration are getting in these American companies’ personal details and that’s not good because these politicians and cabinet officials are not experts in these fields.

This is how higher-level leadership in a company completely destroys companies who have incredible talent (see Intel) while rival companies didn’t have the same problems.

I stated that you were either MAGA or retarded, because if you believe any of that shyt that Trump says then it is the same shyt. :hubie:

Second of all that retard President has already stated that the job numbers from BLS are fake. So if he is saying that they are fake then Powell should not be cuttingrates Powell should actually be raising rates, because what Trump is really saying is that employment is fine, which means that the bigger issue is still inflation.

If they do a rate cut it is only going to make shyt cost more because money will be easier to get and people will just spend it and go into greater debt, which will continue to drive up the cost of shyt. Nobody is even talking about how expensive shyt is already and it is only going to get worse because the backdoor national sales tax has been implemented (tariffs). The USA is on the verge of a massive economic collapse. There have already been over 806,000 layoffs this year. The yields on US bonds are high as Hell, which means the USA is paying more to borrow money. In a recent 10 year bond sale there was lukewarm response and it looks like China and Japan are no longer buying massive US debt.

Finally, who the fugg takes financial advice from an urnge muddafugga that has filed business bankruptcy 6 times? He is a conmen that comprehends at a 6th grade level and is financially illiterate. There are not going to be any development or reshoring of jobs. If foreigners are not buying our bonds then they are not going to be investing here. The economists have been right the whole time and we are looking at a massive recession. These financial pundits are laying out in gratitude detail the issues that are approaching.




Barrons also sees a lot of troubleahead.

1. There won’t be a rate cut.
2. We will have Argentina style inflation..
3. The stagflation won’t allow the rate cut.
4. There may be a rate cut.
5. Maybe, but Trump filed bankruptcy 6 times.

Youre all over the place for no reason.



Stay out of debt. Take advantage of the low interest rates, and hope to god wages increase.



Outside of that :manny:

I am not all over the place. I just gave you the facts. It doesn't matter anyway, because I don't sit on the Fed and I don't control whether they will give a rate cut. Later this week the BLS will release the CPI stats, which experts are expecting inflation to increase to around 3%. In a normal economy with a sane Presidency the interest rate would be getting raised with inflation increasing as fast as it is right now. The bottom line is we are in an unacknowledged recession and now we have stagnant inflation.

Dude is trying to will a rate cut for his own personal benefit. :mjlol:

The Fed is not lowering the rate with inflation increasing. Trump would have to stack the board with lackeys to make it happen.

Yeah he is pissed at me, because I am not helping him send out good vibes to the Federal Reserve Board. They might lower the interest rate, because the job stats were terrible. Then again Trump said the job stats were a hoax so the Feds might decide not to cut the rate because inflation is rocketing up

@xray_media
Trump fired BLS Commissioner McEntarfer Aug 1 after July’s 73K jobs report. Now his Heritage Foundation pick wants to suspend monthly reports entirely—because reality keeps failing MAGA math. 🔥

Antoni—a Trump loyalist who called BLS data "out-of-step" with perceptions—would kill the gold-standard report economists have trusted since 1940. His "solution" to downward revisions? Hide quarterly data until Fox News can spin it. Meanwhile, Trump’s hiring freeze forces BLS to slash staff, risking "undetected errors" per former Commissioner Groshen. Rigged game, broken scoreboard.

When autocrats can’t win on facts, they ban the scorekeepers.

@thebeaconsignal
If you don’t like the scoreboard
call it broken.
If you’re losing the game
unplug the console.

Suspending the jobs report
because it “feels inaccurate”
is the most honest lie in American economics.

It’s not about jobs.
It’s about vibes.
And the new methodology is
“shut up and look at the flag.”

This isn’t policy.
It’s stagecraft with spreadsheets.
Smile for the photo. Burn the data later.

They’re not fixing the numbers.
They’re fixing the illusion
that numbers ever mattered.

You’re not looking at leadership.
You’re watching the audit get assassinated in a three-piece suit
while the country claps in Morse code.

Next month’s report will just say:
“Trust us. It’s going great.”

@CharlesPerreir7
E.J. Antoni, Trump’s pick for BLS chief, is already trying to gut transparency by pushing to suspend the monthly jobs report the cornerstone data that businesses, policymakers, and markets rely on. He claims the methodology is “flawed” but what this really means is he wants to bury bad economic news and rig the narrative. Quarterly reports? That’s just a fancy way to delay accountability and hide the truth from a public desperate for real information. This is a blatant attack on the integrity of economic data, and if the Senate confirms him, they’re greenlighting a political hit job on the facts. No one should trust a guy who’s ready to weaponize statistics for bullshyt propaganda.

Antoni’s proposal to suspend reports comes after May/June figures were slashed by 253k jobs total—exposing the admin’s allergy to reality. The BLS’s 50% survey response rate isn’t new; Trump’s 100% loyalty demand is. When NEC’s Hassett claims they want “honest data,” remember: They fired the watchdog for math they didn’t like.

BLS numbers show Donald Trump's April 2 tariff announcement destroyed the job market. April jobs were down -31% from +256,000 in December 2024, the last full month of Joe Biden. By May, jobs were down -93%, June down -95% and July down -71%.

EJ Antoni, chief economist at the Heritage Foundation, appointed by Donald Trump to replace fired BLS Commissioner Erika McEntarfer, wants to"pause" job numbers and replace them with quarterly. That's how long he expects it to take to fudge numbers to make Trump look good.

Only MAGA morons would believe the job numbers or CPI statistics from BLS with the new commissioner massaging them to conceal Trump's destruction of the economy.

Private industry will probably have to start creating their own reports. They need this info to make decisions.

Oh yeah...TOTALLY trustworthy.

The dude works FOR PROJECT 2025 can this journalist ask about PROJECT 2025

@_WilliamGlad
This president wants the Fed to lower interest rates so that he can refinance his massive debt. It is always about Trump and only Trump.

We got the last honest job report we will ever see.

Fake job reports incoming

“Accurate and honest” in Trump-speak means “numbers that make him look good.”
When the data shows reality, his instinct is to hide it — not fix it.

You don’t suspend data, you revise data

Translation: He just wants to be sure he will be able to manipulate the data first...

"We wanna delay the numbers enough to fix them in our favor"

The most recent job report will be the last accurate one we see for a few years. E.J. Antoni will only release figures that Trump approves of.

@mammasaysstuff
Reminder, EJ Antoni (37) received his PhD only five years ago from the Economics powerhouse of Northern Illinois University (ranked #255 in economics in U.S. News rankings). Gee, I wonder why Trump picked him?! Why he lists his high school in his LinkedIn profile, but not his college, St. Charles Borromeo Seminary, is a mystery.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics’ credibility crisis isn’t solved by suspending reports—it’s fixed by auditing methodology and cutting bureaucratic incompetence. Monthly jobs data drives markets, policy, and public trust. If revisions expose systemic flaws (like 120K+ downward adjustments under Trump’s watch), the solution isn’t to hide the numbers—it’s to overhaul failed models while maintaining transparency.

Halting reports would signal panic, not progress. Real accountability means delivering accurate stats without political interference, not silencing the metrics when they’re inconvenient.

Wow. We’re already turning into China which also suspended certain unemployment data publications. This won’t stop MAGA workers from seeing punk slips though, nor the rest of us. Does this mean the fed no longer worries about its employment mandate?

No one will believe the BLS moving forward. Only the ADP will mean anything

@jardani_w
“accurate data” = data favorable to dear leader

When you don’t like the numbers, just fire the numbers guy and make shyt up

Pro Tip:

You can never, ever trust Donald Trump.

Just ask any of his former wives, golf partners, prosecutors, fraud investigators, foreign leaders and the American public in general.

Fudging the numbers takes a little longer

@SES_Dunn
Same energy as “if we stop testing the cases go down”.

@AdminWatchdog
"Trust" isn't a word I associate with this administration or its dear leader

@ShawBatch
Data that says what Mango wants it to say.

@BeefsnBeans
NOTHING @realDonaldTrump puts out is honest or accurate. The delay is so they suddenly announce a “correction” to the data and it miraculously shows the opposite. /search?q=#Fraud

@hitegraphics3
Take the “L” out of BLS and that would be accurate.

@citizenuniverse
In other words, we want to cook the books to create the illusion of a good economy.

@SpicyShirley
What they should be asking is why there’s a framed poster of the Nazi ship Bismark in one of his Project 2025 training videos…@capitolhunters

Most corrupt administration in history

@JennX0608
"... possibly suspending until they can get the data and methodology in order"

In order = until we can make the jobs numbers say what we want them to say



36/37
@Konjoyan
Ironically, we all trusted it, until now.

@mwill68321
Why not BOTH? With all of the capability at hand now, today, why one or the other and not both? 🤷🏽‍♂️
