Who was it that was saying that Antoni was a lock? Well, he's gone after a mere month. Guess he wasn't far enough Trump's arse.

The White House on Tuesday withdrew the nomination of E.J. Antoni, a conservative economist, to be the next commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

“Dr. E.J. Antoni is a brilliant economist and an American patriot that will continue to do good work on behalf of our great country," a White House official said in a statement to NBC News.

"President Trump is committed to fixing the longstanding failures at the BLS that have undermined the public’s trust in critical economic data. The President plans to announce a new nominee very soon,” the official added.

It's not entirely clear why he lost the job, but the article said "Antoni’s nomination came under scrutiny after the White House said he was a “bystander” at the U.S. Capitol during the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021." though I don't see how that would disqualify him.
