I believe the BLS data has been as accurate as it could be. Is it perfect, hell no, but it is the best we had, now, with a Krasnov goon in charge, no one will trust the numbers.

The Krasnov administration is fighting a war to destroy truth.

Putin couldn't do a better job destroying America than Krasnov is doing.

I agree with your statements about loss of confidence by investors, both domestic and foreign.

Want to go out on a limb? If the world loses confidence in the United States. it will and is already moving away from the United States. Losing the dollar as the world's currency is unlikely but the possibility is growing. Krasnov desperately wants to devalue the dollar, that is his main economic goal.
