"No Bad News!"
Amna Nawaz interviewed David Brooks and Johnathan Capehart about the firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Commissioner because Trump didn't like her jobs report.
Brooks said, "I don't think it can cross Donald Trump's mind that there are neutral arbiters who are objective and are not politicized. But this is the weakness of authoritarian or pseudo-authoritarian regimes, is, they create an atmosphere in which it's not possible to be honest with the executive."
Capehart referenced the musical The Wiz, and said, "You have the bad witch, Evillene, singing, don't nobody bring me no bad news. "
I captured this image from The Wiz that references this moment in our history.
