“SLOWED TO A CRAWL.”
🚨 BREAKING: Under Trump, job growth has collapsed. August: just 22,000 jobs — a fraction of the 77k expected. Unemployment up to 4.3%, the highest since 2021.
Fox Business is coping hard with another bad Trump jobs report: "That 22,000 number -- it's a weaker than expected number, and these revisions are pretty brutal ... it's disappointing ... there's a lot of concern"
🚨 New jobs report: U.S. employers cut 85,979 jobs in August — the worst August since the pandemic. Trump promised a “hot economy.” Instead, workers are paying the price.

The Epstein victims and survivors made it crystal clear that Ghislaine Maxwell should never have received preferential treatment from the Trump Administrarion.
She’s a sexual predator and trafficker and must not be pardoned.
Trump’s DOJ quietly moved Ghislaine Maxwell — Epstein’s fixer — from prison into “basically a Courtyard by Marriott.” This is what happens when power protects itself instead of the public.
Prof. David Kaye: “When they’re detained and set up for deportation solely because of an op-ed… It’s intimidation for anybody who would write anything further.”
Trump’s censorship didn’t stop at one student. It was meant to scare everyone.
Trump’s FTC pressured two major ad firms to run ads on X — a government-ordered gift to Elon Musk.
That’s not free speech. That’s abuse of power to chill scientists, students, and whistleblowers who dare to speak up.
NEW analysis on the GOP megabill's core policy choice: each millionaire's tax cut is paid for by taking away health insurance from 4 people while reducing health care benefits from many others.
🚨 BREAKING: For the first time since April 2021, there are more unemployed Americans than job openings.
July numbers:
📉 7.18M job openings
📈 7.24M unemployed
The labor market is cracking—and it’s getting harder for people to find work.
Massie: "The Speaker of the House just offered a fig leaf to my colleagues. They're gonna vote on a non-binding resolution today that does absolutely nothing ... they're allowing the DOJ to curate all of the information that the DOJ is giving them ... the perpetrators are being…
Prof. David Kaye, former UN free speech watchdog, on Trump’s attacks on the press:
“It’s not just about attacks on journalists…It’s about every American’s right of access to information. It’s about the freedom of public debate.”
Prof. David Kaye — former UN watchdog on free speech — testified that under Trump, the U.S. has silenced scientists, censored health data, punished speech at the border, and attacked the press.
His warning: “This is the tip of an iceberg of censorship that should concern every…
Professor David Kaye: “The country that had my back as Special Rapporteur [on freedom of opinion and expression]… now leads the charge to undermine freedom of speech and of the press.”
When the world’s expert on free expression sounds the alarm about America, we should listen.
Trump’s “Turbulence Tax” is real.
📈 +$2,400 per household
📉 -13% small business revenue
💸 +18% ACA premiums by 2026
Chaos isn’t free—it’s coming out of your pocket.

I’ve heard courageous stories from the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. Their strength is inspiring.
It’s infuriating that Ghislaine Maxwell is being given preferential treatment by Trump and his Department of Justice. Release the full files NOW.
