Note: BLS is currently being led by William Wiatrowski, a "BLS lifer" who has served as acting commissioner twice before. E.J. Antoni has not yet been confirmed. And in any case, it would be hard for a commissioner to mess with the numbers in the short-term, at least without it…

Jobs day advice: Trust the data, use it responsibly Hope for good news!
BLS will produce accurate jobs numbers in 1 hour. Don't worry about political interference today. But make no mistake, the president wants to make this political. It's up to elected officials to protect #JobsDay from politics theguardian.com/business/2025/…
BLS revisions are standard. Trump’s firing of its commissioner is not. Undermining the BLS isn’t about accuracy—it’s about power. theguardian.com/business/2025/…
What is notable about Miran's hearing is how quickly it came together. He was only nominated a couple of weeks ago and the administration wants him in place before the next meeting on interest rates in Sept. 16-17. "Your nomination is getting rushed because the President is…
Statement from Warren in this hearing for Steve Miran's Fed nomination highlighted why Fed needs to be driven by data, not Presidential control Noted the perils of going the way of Nixon & other basket-case economies A Republican would've given a similar statement not long ago

Squinting at GDP numbers, it's become clear that A.I. is propping up the economy -- not through productivity growth, but simply the sheer amount of money going into physical infrastructure needed to support all the computing power it gobbles up. nytimes.com/2025/08/27/bus…

Everyone needs to calm down about this wildly unqualified BLS nominee and buy my TIPS bonds
A lot of principled conservatives and libertarians on the feed speaking up against this nomination for BLS Commissioner Truly grateful to all of you. I would advise you to speak with key Republican members of the Senate HELP committee, many of whom I think are persuadable here
There’s a difference between Fed independence and Fed omnipotence. After the Trump's attempt at BLS interference it's not clear financial elites (or judicial ones) get it. -me msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…
The haircut comes from Republican consumption taxes too!

Both sides have a point, so we should have a real debate over the wisdom of firing the BLS commissioner Is this obviously self defeating to a 3rd grader? Or, by contrast, is it only obviously self defeating to a 7th grader?

Love a good Disruption take that fundamentally misunderstand Disruption. Knowing how to make something worse and much cheaper is a terrible qualification for making things better
