Jobs Report: Unemployment Continues to Rise Under Trump's Tariffs

Amen.
#Harris tells MSNBC "the American people deserve so much better" when asked about #Trump calling her a 'shit Vice President.'
"What you see in my opponent … really is— it demeans the office and I have said — and I am very clear about this — Donald Trump should never again stand behind the seal of the President of the United States."
I’ve seen dozens of stories pointing out that Trump’s tariffs would raise the price of imported goods but few that mention how countervailing duties would also make our exports uncompetitive.
Some companies might move their factories here but industries that export would be fucked. Is this too hard to explain?

Wow. Just... wow. Share please.
The Lincoln Project has released an updated take on Lyndon B. Johnson’s 1964 Daisy ad. This time a young woman appeals to her father whose vote for Donald #Trump will take her life.
"Daisy":
Welp.
As Sherrilyn Ifill put it, "Jared, Trump & Bibi have plans."
"#Trump: Gaza could be ‘better than Monaco’
“It has the best location in the Middle East, the best water, the best everything,” the Republican presidential contender said.

#Trump flubbed anchor Sage Steele's name at a town hall event, calling her "Paige."
"Thank you very much. Thank you. Let's have a little fun, Paige. OK?" Trump told Steele, who stood next to him onstage at Sunday's event in Lancaster, #Pennsylvania. Steele moderated the town hall.
#Harris campaign quickly posted footage of the incident on Twitter, where it had received more than 800,000 views by Monday a.m.”

#Trump is BOOED at the Steelers-Jets game in Pittsburgh.
“BOOOOOO!!!!!! GET HIM OUTTA TOWN!!”
Hundreds of #Doctors Are Demanding #Trump’s Health Records
The ex-president promised hard evidence that he was fit to serve. Where is it?
After Trump’s very #weird week, >400 doctors & health professionals are questioning his #mental & physical #fitness to serve, & calling for him to release his #MedicalRecords.
The development…comes about a week after the group Doctors for #Harris first released the letter, w/a little more than ½ the 448 signatures it has now.

“#Trump’s ground game in #Arizona and #Nevada may be undercut by canvassers working for America Pac using GPS spoofing to pretend they have knocked on doors when they haven’t…leaked how-to-fake-location video.
The ramifications for Trump may be far reaching, given America Pac has taken on the bulk of the Trump campaign’s ground game in the battleground states, and the election increasingly appears set to be decided by turnout”

"January 30th 1933 dawned cold and clear in Berlin as Adolph Hitler took his oath of office and promised Germans he would uphold the constitution. It would ultimately take him less than 30 days to dismantle it. ...
All you need to end a democracy is a leader willing to suspend or end the Constitution and a supporting cast large enough to allow him to do it.
Republicans have both."

The US threatening to annex Greenland.
The US toying with the idea of making Canada an American state.
The US sending a "special envoy" to Greenland.
Time to future proof #Nato by formalising a subdivision.

Their hypocrisy is flaunted, it’s a strategy. They don’t care, nor do their idiot MAGAt followers. 🤦🏻♀️

Oh. Donald Trump’s $60 bibles were made in China. 👇🏼
AP: #Trump has long blasted #China’s trade practices. His ‘God Bless the USA’ Bibles were printed there

🎯Via Republicans Against Trump, a TikTok:
Former Prime Minister of Australia Malcolm Turnbull: “When you see #Trump with #Putin, as I have on a few occasions, he’s like the 12-year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero!’ It’s really creepy…the creepiness was palpable”
“Eric #Trump, who runs the family business, embarked on the negotiations well after his father kicked off his latest presidential bid in November 2022, the interviews and documents show. And while he has not finalized either prospective deal — talks have not resumed since #Hamas’s attack on Israel a year ago — the Trump Org continues to express interest in opening an Israeli hotel.” #Israel
The #US government and with that #Trump cannot be more corrupt, imagine this with Biden
I almost trust China more then the US by now and that says something

America needs to read this. Via Rachel Bitecofer, a Thread Reader post:
"The choice for thousands of police, lawyers, judges, journalists, civil servants, and other average Germans was clear: starve or go along to get along.
Very few people chose to risk their own families and fortunes for the greater good.
If Donald #Trump returns to power, Americans should be prepared for catastrophic change" https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1848436310182441299.html

I'm glad people are gaming out how #Trump might try to steal election.
I think it is a category error to assume he'll do lawfare then violence this time around, though. The immunity brief makes it clear even 2020 moved in tandem. "Make them riot." But violence may start earlier.
Via Kyle Griffin:
This passage from Michelle Obama:
"I hope you'll forgive me if I'm a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore #Trump's gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you'll forgive me if I'm a little angry that we are indif to his erratic behavior. His obvious mental decline. His history as a convicted felon . All of this while we pick apart Kamala's answers from interviews that he doesn't even have the courage to do, y'all."
