is Blue and Black!!!!

August 1, 2025 - BLS July jobs report shows U.S. added 73,000 jobs, below market expectations
August 1, 2025 - Trump fires BLS commissioner
August 11, 2025 - Trump appoints new BLS commissioner
September 5, 2025 - BLS August jobs report shows U.S. added only 22,000 jobs in August. Unemployment rate rises slightly to 4.3 percent.

(in between guess: Cheeto Bonito told new BLS commissioner to walk or put out something that would make U.S. citizens forget the August jobs report)

September 9, 2025 - BLS announces hiring was overstated by 911,000 from April 2024 to March 2025.

Wish I had mod points. I mentioned this to some friends just the other day. It seems he thought he had leverage over the whole wide world and ignored what leverage everyone else had on the U.S. Or was just plain ignorant of it.

Thank you for your response, I was being sarcastic and trying to link it: "fair and balanced", the motto of Fox News dropped in 2017.

Who are the pre-cogs? Or is that a state secret?

No, you are not the US.

I didn't realize crack cocaine was still so popular...

They should have gone with "just the tip".

Someone's probably beat you to it by now, but ThinAir coin is not a bad name...just sayin.

Not necessarily, that depends on the method and what you mean by "disappearing". Hell, you could keep some/most of the continent intact if there is a massive eruption from Yellowstone and lower temperatures by 3–5C for maybe a decade??? Now how one goes about that or waits until nature causes it....
