This is REALLY bad. Entire sectors of industry rely on these data to make business decisions. Scientists and inventors use them to create things and address real problems that we face. It’s really hard to not see this Administration as deliberately damaging the USA and its economy to create a geopolitical and economic vacuum for China to fill.
We can either have an America, or we can erase and undo every action of both Trump administrations and put everyone involved up on treason hearings.
For the last few decades now, the Federal government has abused the two centuries of trust and governance of our Forefathers and constitution. Sadly, the power of Washington has corrupted almost everyone that has stepped into the district. Big money lobbyists, NGOs, warmongers, and even recently, government agencies not named the CIA, FBI, and NSA (Read: Fed Reserve, Labor Bureau) have crafted data to benefit the bureaucratic largesse of government. The DOGE experiment exposed it all on the financial side, Epstein and Russiagate exposed it on the intelligence side; and, Trump exposed the media for the main conduit of these corrupt politicians’ greed.
We were running down a path to financial ruin and cultural extermination from what our country was founded on Under God: protection of diversity of thought, but without using that premise for financial gain. Trump, though chastised, prosecuted, and denigrated daily for his belief in the constitution and American values has given at least half the country hope that we can find our way back to what made us the greatest country in the world.
This post article is typical. But, the majority of the country has been awakened to DC’s nefarious ways. I’m personally hoping this lasts for a couple generations long after Trump is gone.
Trump has no belief in anything but himself, and those who support him are either in on the fraud or just widely deluded that he care one wit about them. Trump, along with his Russian minders, have turned the Republican Party into an organization incompatible with the American experiment.
Another Washington Post attempt to rationalize their pasts biases and continued efforts to discredit any issue not inline with their slanted propaganda. The Post and the majority of national media seem to live in a continued attack of information that contradicts their agendas and previous manipulation of their misinformation, and the sad part is it’s all about and against the single man that has the guts to change the old status quo. It’s as if the post, the AP, et al can’t move forward with any enlightened news or efforts that wasn’t dictated by the DNC. The trust and respect of once great media has been tainted beyond repair.
Kevin, exactly what is the new status quo you think you’re getting, and how is it better for most Americans? What I’m seeing is everything that enabled the American middle class being rolled back.
The purpose of journalism is not simply to report the news, but to keep the pressure on those in power through investigative work. That is its point and something that was seen as being built-in to the Constitution’s first amendment. Journalism – as opposed to “the media” – is not the 24 hour fear and opinion entertainment we see on Fox, MS, CNN, etc. It is making sure that people are doing what they are supposed to be doing. Whether or not some stories were missed in the past does not negate stories that are being investigated and reported now.
Because the information and data promulgated by the Biden / Obama administrations was 100% purely accurate… /sarc
See the accuracy of federal aid accounting in Minnesota…
