All right, I want to show you how much trouble Fox News had trying to spin these abysmal job numbers for the month of August 2025.

Now, keep in mind, this is the first jobs report that we've gotten since Trump straight up fired the last commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because he didn't like the job numbers for July.

He claimed that they were political, that the BLS commissioner was targeting him because she was a Biden appointee. I don't know,

new opportunities, there's a few. Largely tariffs, the uncertainty that's created with small

businesses when tariffs are in effect, but American businesses also lose their competitive

edge abroad when it costs so much to import stuff. So if you combine the uncertainty,

if you combine the loss of competitive nature abroad, it feels like companies are just struggling.

And not just feels like it. You look at the numbers and it's borne out in every single indicator.

Let me show you the moment that on Fox business,

they do this to themselves every month. They report the job numbers live and they're always just
