The entire press is in an uproar because President Donald Trump’s nominee to run the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has a history of making allegedly unsavory statements on social media.
For instance, according to an absolutely horrified CNN, nominee E.J. Antoni “posted at least five sexually suggestive tweets implying that then Sen. Kamala Harris had advanced her career through sexual favors.”
Heaven forbid! It’s not like there’s clear-cut evidence proving that former San. Francisco Mayor Willie Brown awarded her with two lucrative appointments within the city government while she was having an affair with him in the 1990s. Oh, wait, there is.
CNN is also upset that Antoni once referred to liar and fraud Christine Blasey Ford as “Miss Piggy.” Recall that she smeared Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh with a last-minute sexual assault accusation during his confirmation hearings seven years ago.
Christine Blasey Ford:
-Had 0 proof that she ever met Kavanaugh
-Couldn’t remember where it happened, when it happened, or how she arrived/departed from the party
-All 4 of her witnesses said the party never happened
-Her best friend and her dad do not believe herShe’s a liar https://t.co/zGwo9JXBW4

Antoni’s greatest sin, according to the crying press, may have been retweeting a post titled “Advice For Women: How To Land a Great Guy” that, God forbid, instructed women to “be in shape,” “grow your hair long,” “be sweet,” “learn to cook,” and “don’t be annoying.”
In the dreary world of leftists, it’s of course important for women to be as annoying, obese, and short-haired as is humanely possible.

Wired magazine is also mad at Antoni.
He “posted a wide variety of conspiratorial content,” including the claim “that Jeffrey Epstein ‘didn’t kill himself,’” the outlet complained.
Wow! Who on Earth could ever, ever, ever dare to think that deceased pedophile Jeffery Epstein didn’t kill himself!?
Wired’s also mad that Antoni “shared [so-called] Covid conspiracy theories, especially focusing on the claims that China had purposely manufactured the virus to destroy its enemies.”
How could he possibly dare!?

Next up is The Washington Post, which is upset that Antoni gave a scientific answer when pressed with a complex question.
“Antoni made the remarks … in a discussion with summer interns at [the] Heritage [Foundation] in 2024,” the Post reported. “He said that women’s IQs generally clustered around average scores, while men’s IQs varied more between ‘geniuses’ and low-intelligence individuals.”
How dare he! Oh, wait …
In a statement to the Post, Heritage’s vice president of strategic communications, Mary Vought, fiercely defended Antoni, saying he’d answered with the “greater male variability hypothesis” when asked a question about the gender makeup of the workface.
“A statistician cited statistics when asked — that’s not a story or controversial,” she said. “As BLS commissioner, Dr. Antoni will rely on objective data to restore integrity, accountability and America’s trust in the agency. I’m proud to call him a colleague and a friend.”
The Daily Beast, an outlet that at least has the honesty to admit its leftist bias, meanwhile, complained that Antoni once “pushed a debunked conspiracy that Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar was in an incestuous relationship with her brother.”
Except this “debunked conspiracy” has never been debunked! Though FYI, the claim isn’t that she had sexual relations with her brother but that she married him so he could obtain entry into the United States.
The @FBI had evidence that Ilhan Omar married her brother in order to gain his citizenship, and did nothing
Many users on X are calling for her to be deported for lying on an immigration form, I’m one of them, who’s with me

In a statement to CNN, the White House, for its part, defended Antoni’s nomination to the BLS.
“President Trump has nominated Dr. EJ Antoni to fix the issues at the BLS and restore trust in the jobs reports,” the statement reads. “Dr. Antoni has the experience and credentials needed to restore solution-oriented leadership at the BLS — solutions that will prioritize increasing survey response rates and modernizing data collection methods to improve the BLS’s accuracy.”
