Trump is nominating E.J. Antoni to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Antoni currently serves as chief economist at the right-leaning Heritage Foundation, the authors of #Project2025.
So, yeah, the numbers will be shameless lies and propaganda. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/11/b...
Antoni, who apparently doesn't know the difference between a decimal and a decibel, has been rated "utterly unqualified" by the conservative American Enterprise Institute. And yet, he's "chief economist" for Heritage, which explains a lot about Project 2025's economic plan.
Will America ever be able to pull themselves out of the disaster that is about to happen under Trump?
Of course, the NYT and their misleading headlines. Rapist liar appoints morally bankrupt puppets to spread propaganda and lie about statistics.
The jobs report has been suspended until further notice. Talk about a complete coverup of the truth by a guy who cannot face the truth. Coward. I’m sure he will hide a possible slip into a recession while lying his ass off that everything is fine. The French solved this before.
I'm sure this will make Wall St. happy... NOT
...and will serve to cover up a sex-trafficking pedophile ring.
I think the only requirement to work for the pedo in cheat is to look like a bully or villain from an 80's film or TV show.
Oh, and before I get distracted, #releasethelist the #epsteinlist
The FASCIST heritage Foundation
Friendlier?!
Don't you mean fake?
What a coincidence, the regime leader stated before the election that he knew nothing about the Heritage Foundation, suddenly knows enough about them to nominate a chief economist FROM THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION to be leading the nation's BLS. Of all economists available he chooses someone from HF?
here's what Project 2025 wants
The pros on WS are already subscribing to private data because they know the claim of creating 1M jobs is coming......
Remember when those in the know, told us how it was going to play? And that when he had done everything HF wanted, they'll call for the 25th and their perfectly groomed poster boy, JD will step into the Oval? Well, guess what....😎
When did we begin using so many different descriptions for the word "lies"?
We have misinformation, disinformation and now the New York Times with "friendlier data".
Ok then.
Blondi looked really depressed that day. I bet.
Right leaning is understating it, even in our current overton window lmao
Can’t wait for his 3rd grade charts to show up. Again, all part of project 2025.
And Trump had nothing to do with project 2025 right?
Totally Legit.
I’d like to see evidence he is actually an economist.
Question, whose going to release data until his confirmation hearing?
That would be false fake data.
You guys and gals over there are cooked! No coming back from this. Australia is a nice place to relocate. 👍
“Friendlier data” which means made up lies.
Civil war time yet?
All the institutions and corporations cooperating with this insane asylum should be publicly shunned and shamed.
Just like the 400 million new jobs, trump created in his administration? 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆
Because he needs to "have friends in all the high places."
Everything that comes out of this administration is lies and propaganda.
Right LEANING?!
E.J. Antoni is a conservative economist deeply involved with Project 2025. His nomination to lead the BLS marks a significant shift toward political influence over a traditionally independent statistical agency
oh ye of little faith.
At least for jobs numbers there's still ADP.
This isn't theoretical ideology, this is economic impact, both from a domestic and foreign influence, based on data. I hope the GOP Senators fully comprehend this.
So how many jobs will be created in the month of August? I'm guessing 485,000!
Get ready: "In the August jobs report, the economy added eleventy billion new jobs thanks to our divine Supreme Leader."
His nomination is a complete joke. A Heritage Foundation flunky and completely radicalized partisan. We have zero chance of getting accurate data. Pathetic.
Selecting E.J. Antoni to run BLS is like selecting Wile E. Coyote to run the Acme Roadrunner Conservation Foundation.
Another step towards a completely fascist America.
Of course calling the Heritage Foundation “right leaning” is pretty funny. If they leaned any further they would be lying on the ground.
I cannot express how disgusting I find this.
🤮
Another stooge
Not a lot of folks will remember who started Heritage.
BLS has gone from respected globally to ZERO CREDIBILITY overnight. I expect nothing more than P2025 PROPAGANDA a.k.a — LIES! 😠
does he think it will effect the Epstein files?
The entire administration is a SHAM!
Nominating a chief economist from a partisan think tank raises serious concerns about the objectivity and integrity of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Reliable data is essential for informed policy — politicizing it undermines public trust.
It's a numbers racket.
Trump is steadily destroying the US from the inside.
Surprise...said no one. Ever.
They'll have to restate the numbers going back 3.5 years once this regime is ousted. Also, where's the Epstein files??
Fire Lying Lori Chavez Deremer
Climate deniers will cause great damage
He famously criticizes and hates the BLS
So, wonderful choice from Dear Leader 🤢
The Fascism Foundation
Eventually people will completely stop trusting the numbers and the markets will tank
Too bad there are independent economic institutes that put out numbers as well
Speak to the people of Argentina or Greece about this great idea.....
A million, billion jobs will be created by next Tuesday. Average wages will rise 100% by month's end. You just watch.
Ok this cannot stand. Cmon America, believe in MATH again. dammit!
And we had a good economy just last year!
“right leaning” - wrong verbiage. if this isn’t as far radical right as humanly imaginable, what is??
I wasn't inclined to believe the labor numbers coming from this regime in the first place. Now I'm certain they'll be made up/false/lies.
Oh no. 😥
Welcome to Greece
Not the brightest bulb:
None of this is shocking None of his appointments are shocking Nothing he does is shocking It is all planned It is Project 2025 He wants to normalize lies He is successful at this. WAKE THE FU K UP AMERICA. YOUR COUNTRY IS NO MORE THE NEW COUNTRY OF TRUMPISTAN
Heritage Foundation has never issued a report without fudged numbers- one direction or the other- to make some Maga policy/ scumbag liar seem accurate. So the once highly respected BLS will now be a joke with favorable one sided BS facts. Another lying branch of this administration
And they said Biden was being led by others. 🙄
I think they plan to rename it the Department of Alternative Statistics as well. 😂
If you can’t trust the numbers that makes you very dodgy to invest in.
The US is entering Banana Republic territory. Ouch!
Trump wants to wreck our economy Wreck it in a way benefiting him and oligarchs We the people are collateral damage You don’t hire the best people if you’re needing a wrecking ball
Congrats Vance, Thiel, Vought and Navarro. Another step in the Heritage Foundation’s overall plan. Appointing Antoni to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics turns a trusted, nonpartisan data agency into a political instrument. kills the credibility the BLS needs to serve the public and the economy.
Just as we feared, a Trump hack who only will report "happy, patriotic" numbers. His only qualification is loyalty to the Dear Leader.
Soon he will say BLS is using "all new" data collection methods which create more accurate results, but those methods never will be revealed.
It’s the logical choice, if you’re looking for top level lying.
Not just the folks in the US, the rest of the world can no longer believe a thing that comes out of this administration. This will end, but it won't end well and it will take a generation or more to fix.
If they increase the numbers...what does that mean for policy making?
Nothing like cookin' the books!!!
Crime is up in dc because of the people in the White House
And ones soooo willing to lie for him.
The Heritage Foundation is the enemy within!! I read project 2025!!
A liar flanked by two liars. What a disgrace, America. Do better.
They attack science and real data to flood everything with their lies and propaganda. They disconnect the population from facts, data and truth. It's easier to rule over stupid.
Nobody can say he hasn't been warned. Resist.
I expect nothing less from these liars and cheaters- smdh
Can't be any different than cooking the books in accounting, right? This POS should know all about that.
Wow, I almost forgot EPSTEIN. AND Trump going to Russia. And invasion of DC.
And who is surprised by this?? Lies Lies Lies All Trump can do is protect himself with extreme right wing lunatics. He is building what he hopes is an impermeable wall of racist boot-lickers.
Don't lose the focus on another fact: Trump raped young girls. For years. Sometimes the same girl.
