The US lost 23,000 jobs last month, according to new data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, with the unemployment rate dipping to 4.1%. Some of that dip can be attributed to people who gave up after being unable to find employment. CNN’s David Goldman explains. https://cnn.it/4wOE4LF
It sometimes feels like we're living in a ridiculously exaggerated folk tale with wildly implausible villains. For example, as the president takes billions for himself and his family and *coats his things in gold,* the soldiers fighting his war can't get toothpaste, hot water, or a clean toilet.
Moldy showers and no soap: Military families are outraged by conditions on USS Lincoln

The stories are breaking through, & they all rhyme Lead, Mercury & arsenic dumped in a public park, a no bid contract to a donor, a prosecution to change the subject Trump is reshaping the monuments & the norms at the same time @deadlinewh.bsky.social👇 -TN
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.

I don't understand why the Rebel Alliance had to resort to violence.

New Yorkers scream out each officer’s lawsuits against them for excessive force and more upon their city, right to their faces while protesting.
Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders?
🦋 BREAKING: National Guard storm peaceful protesters Shooting nonlethal rounds & dragging away a protester outside the Federal Detention Centre in downtown Los Angeles There were no signs of any violence or abuse prior to the incident 🦋
Pentagon rules sharply limit US Marines and National Guard activity in Los Angeles, prohibiting arrests, surveillance, and other customary police work. Here's what federal troops can (and can't do) while deployed in LA as ICE protests ramp up.

Protests that sprang up in Los Angeles over immigration enforcement raids have spread across the country.

What's needed in LA is de-escalation & for Trump to return California National Guard control to the state ASAP. And for $134 million, we could feed more than half of the 140,000 Pennsylvanians who would lose SNAP because of the Republicans’ #ReverseRobinHood budget.
Politico@politico.com · last yr.Trump’s deployment of troops to Los Angeles amid mass deportation protests will likely cost $134 million, the Pentagon’s acting budget chief said.
Judge: "Return the National Guard control back to California." Trump: "No... and soon as my Big Beautiful Bill passes the Senate and I sign it into law, you won't be able to make me." *raspberry* That's where we are in the People's Republic of America.
ICE got fancy hotel in Pasadena (until protestors got them kicked out) ICE gets fancy pay and BBB wants to give them $40,000 bonuses. National Guard gets shit pay and to sleep on the floor. worth considering and discussing disparity in compensation and treatment of US Military versus ICE--
YET, ON J6, WHILE OUR CAPITOL POLICE WERE LITERALLY BEING KILLED, beaten, bear-sprayed, spat on FOR MANY HOURS by Trump's brainwashed radicalized MAGA Cult Cunts, Trump - who was the ONLY ONE with authority to call National Guard - REFUSED TO DEPLOY THE GAURD for fear it would end HIS INSURRECTION.
SaveDemocracy123@savedemocracy123.bsky.social · last yr.Trump's fascist criminal J6 MAGA cunts not only KILLED 5 CAPITOL POLICE, and injured 140 more with a wide variety of weapons - poles, bear spray, clubs, bats, knives- they also spat on Capitol police and SHIT IN OUR CAPITOL spreading their feces all over the walls. It was MUCH more violent than LA!!
Occasionally, Trump and his team have a 24-hour period that makes an authoritarian vision clear. From yesterday: - Trump talks up Newsom's arrest - Hegseth hedges on honoring court rulings - Noem to “liberate” LA - Padilla manhandled, cuffed - Trump touts “remigration,” scrambles to federalize Guard
Over 24 hours, Trump’s authoritarian-style vision comes into focus (again)
Every once in a while, the president has a day — a single, 24-hour period — in which his authoritarian vision comes into sharp relief.

Trump issued another statement saying ‘if you spit, we will hit’ giving the militarized National Guard permission to use physical violence against peaceful protestors. This rhetoric is similar with ‘when the looting starts, the shooting starts.’ Be prepared, peaceful, and safe out there! 💙
At noon PT, a company of 200 Marines will be stationed at the Wilshire Federal Building in Los Angeles, taking over for National Guard troops there, Major Gen. Scott Sherman told reporters.
