This is post questioning. At the very least she got a federal resort prison out of it.
Part of me wonders if he’s wagging the dog.

President Trump orders firing of Labor statistics chief after weak jobs report. Claims she is manipulating job numbers for political purposes
WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump said he's ordered the firing of Erika McEntarfer, the U.S. commissioner of Labor Statistics, accusing her without evidence of manipulating figures for "political purposes" after the Labor Department reported the U.S. added a disappointing 73,000 jobs in July.
Trump on Aug. 1 announced the move in a post on his social media app Truth Social, writing that he was "just informed that our Country’s 'Jobs Numbers' are being produced by a Biden Appointee, Dr. Erika McEntarfer."
"We need accurate Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified," Trump said. "Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can’t be manipulated for political purposes."
The Senate in January 2024 confirmed McEntarfer, an appointment of former President Joe Biden. A labor economist, McEntarfer has worked 20 years in the federal government, including previous stints at the U.S. Census Bureau and Treasury Department.
In addition to Friday's release of the July jobs report ‒ which was well below the 105,000 new jobs that had been estimated ‒ the Labor Department's job gains for May and June were revised down by 258,000, portraying a much weaker labor market than believed in late spring and early summer.
"McEntarfer said there were only 73,000 Jobs added (a shock!) but, more importantly, that a major mistake was made by them, 258,000 Jobs downward, in the prior two months," Trump said. "Similar things happened in the first part of the year, always to the negative."
Trump also accused McEntarfer of "faking the jobs numbers before the (2024) election" to help Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. Trump pointed to robust jobs reports in March, August and September of 2024 that were later revised lower.
The cult cheers on.

Kaine: "Get this guys, we have a trade SURPLUS with Brazil, but President Trump has announced a 50% tariff. Why? Because they don't like the fact that Brazil is prosecuting a friend of his for corruption and an attempt to overturn the election. And he's using an emergency power to do it. How is it an emergency for America when Brazil tries to prosecute a corrupt official."

Surely, not Shirley, someone has a list of the firings by don of people he canned solely because of his pettiness...I argue with my brother about this all the time, and his go-to is, ´well, I wouldn´t want to work with someone who was not on the same page as me, or loyal to me, or disagreed with me´...but itś so much more than that...
