Easily Bruised

Does Congress still exist? Does it still have a reason for being? What about the Supreme Court? Is there anyone with the smarts and the gumption to call Donald Trump on his childishness? The latest, apparently, is that he wants to fire the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, because the July jobs report was not to his liking.

Is this just another distraction to divert our gaze from the Epstein files, or is it more the latest example of Trump over-extending his reach because he finds reality so distasteful?

It’s manipulation for all to see. What does he expect the outcome to be? How much power does he think he has? Heavy-handed, myopic leadership can’t tolerate even the whiff of bad press. So the truth tellers must go.

What comes next, doctored statistics?

Everyone sees this, right? Isn’t this a bad place to be?
