The Largest Jobs Revision Ever — What It Means for the U.S. | Prof G Markets

One reason BLS statistic revisions are so large is because it is underfunded. Trump funding it even less isn’t going to help this.

Another problem is that businesses are not responding to surveys.

Trump administration making it easier for wealthy people to cheat on taxes. One of the simplest ways to bring in more revenue and help the deficit is to take in the taxes people actually owe. This requires enforcement and effort, but the Trump administration isn’t willing to keep doing that.

In 1 DC neighborhood after federal intervention, a mixed view of more authority

““We do need protection here,” said Mable Carter, 82. “I have to come down on the bus. It’s horrifying.”

There might be military units patrolling Union Station and public spaces where tourists often come, she said, but “none of them over here. They are armed — on the Mall. Ain’t nobody doing nothing on the Mall. It’s for show.”

Carter wants to see more police in this area — the city’s own police, under the direction of Chief Pamela Smith. “I’d rather see them give her a chance. She has the structure in place.”

The Pentagon, when asked if there were plans to deploy the National Guard to higher crime areas like Anacostia and who determines that, sent a list of stations where the military units were present as of late last month. None of those deployments included stations east of the Anacostia River.

Like Carter, people would like more law enforcement resources, but they distrust the motives behind the surge and how it has usurped the authority of the mayor and local officers. And while they acknowledge crime is more serious here than most other areas of the district, it is nowhere near the levels of three decades ago, when the D.C. National Guard worked with the Metropolitan Police to address the violence.”

Trump faces EXTREME BACKLASH after RAID GONE WRONG

Korean companies invest billions in the U.S., can’t get appropriate visas due to the U.S.’s crappy system, and the skilled people brought over to help make these investments are rounded up like criminals.

You can’t demand Korea invest in the U.S., not have the human capital to support those investments, not have the visa system to get that capital imported legally, and then get mad when in order to fulfill the investment demands the Korean companies don’t get their skilled workers properly documented.

Trump seems to recognize that it’s a problem, yet he did nothing to fix it while leading the charge on an incredibly expensive mass deportation operation while also demanding foreign countries invest in the U.S..

Ugly August Jobs Report Rattles Wall Street | Prof G Markets

Trump has 33 tech leaders over, and they all suck his dick like he’s a vain dictator.

What’s the point to gaining that much power and wealth if they are just going to bend over for a vain, capricious, and rule-breaking ruler?

Jobs numbers aren’t good, indicating a weak economy. Especially young people are having trouble getting jobs, indicating companies aren’t ready to expand with inexperienced people given the economic and political uncertainty. Of course, the economic uncertainty is mostly driven by bad White House policy.

Manufacturing jobs are down. Manufacturing business leaders say tariffs are the cause of less manufacturing jobs. They can’t plan with the tariff created uncertainty. Trump’s tariffs are weakening manufacturing, not strengthening it.

Most job growth was in education, healthcare, and government, meaning sectors that often don’t reflect economic growth.

The Assassination of Charlie Kirk

Charlie Kirk was a gifted Trump activist. He often said things that were false and misleading. He propagandistically supported Trump and Trump’s falsehoods while maligning the left and trans people. Whatever he said and supported, his murder is an outrage. Political violence is unacceptable. The perpetrators need to be prosecuted, and those who encouraged or celebrated this heinous assassination should be criticized for their indirect support of murder. Political violence is more than normal violence. It is an attack on democracy and tears at the fabric of society.

Decades-long peace vigil near White House is dismantled after Trump’s order

“Law enforcement officials on Sunday removed a peace vigil that had stood outside the White House for more than four decades after President Donald Trump ordered it to be taken down as part of the clearing of homeless encampments in the nation’s capital.
Philipos Melaku-Bello, a volunteer who has manned the vigil for years, told The Associated Press that the Park Police removed it early Sunday morning. He said officials justified the removal by mislabeling the memorial as a shelter.

“The difference between an encampment and a vigil is that an encampment is where homeless people live,” Melaku-Bello said. “As you can see, I don’t have a bed. I have signs and it is covered by the First Amendment right to freedom of speech and freedom of expression.”

The small but persistent act of protest was brought to Trump’s attention during an event at the While House on Friday.

Brian Glenn, a correspondent for the conservative network Real America’s Voice, told Trump the blue tent was an “eyesore” for those who come to the White House.

“Just out front of the White House is a blue tent that originally was put there to be an anti-nuclear tent for nuclear arms,” Glenn said. “It’s kind of morphed into more of an anti-American, sometimes anti-Trump at many times.”

Trump, who said he was not aware of it, told his staff: “Take it down. Take it down today, right now.”
