Only One MAJOR Media Outlet Covered This Heinous New Scandal.

The corporate media largely ignored a Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) announcement that the Biden-Harris government created far fewer jobs than initially reported over the last 12 months. On Wednesday morning, the BLS—a government agency that provides detailed analysis of U.S. employment data—revised downward the number of jobs added to the U.S. economy by 818,000, the single largest revision in 15 years.

Despite the historic and economically concerning announcement, the news—considered damaging to Kamala Harris‘s 2024 presidential campaign—did not feature on two of the three major broadcast news networks’ evening programming. Among NBC, CBS, and ABC, only the last included the revision announcement in a brief mention during its World News Tonight program. Most broadcast networks opted to provide wall-to-wall coverage of the 2024 Democratic National Convention (DNC).

NINETEEN SECONDS OF COVERAGE.

ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir‘s report—lasting just 19 seconds—stated: “Newly revised jobs data showing the jobs market hasn’t been as hot as it seemed. 818,000 fewer jobs were added during the 12 months that ended in March than previously reported. This puts more pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, potentially by half a percentage point next month, which could, of course, lower car loans, mortgages, and credit card rates.”

Later in the evening, the BLS revisions were mentioned a second time on ABC News Live, the network’s free live-streaming channel. The Biden-Harris government’s Secretary of Commerce, Gina Raimondo, was asked if she believes the new jobs numbers “could be a liability” for the Democratic nominee after former President Donald J. Trump hammered Harris on the revisions earlier in the day.

“First of all, I don’t believe it because I’ve never heard Donald Trump say anything truthful,” Raimondo responded, with the exasperated reporter pushing back: “It is, though, from the Bureau of Labor.”

“I’m not familiar with that,” a visibly confused and flustered Raimdo replied.

WATCH: Unhinged Pelosi Says Beating Trump is Like 1776, or U.S. Civil War.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, still known as the ‘chairman’ of the Democratic Party, launched a bizarre and violent broadside against President Trump from within the securely guarded perimeter of the Democratic National Convention on Thursday.

During a conversation with the far-left MSNBC network, Pelosi said, “We have to defeat a person who is a threat to our democracy of the kind we have not seen. At the beginning of our country, Thomas Paine said, ‘Times have found us,’ declare war, establish a new nation. Abraham Lincoln took up that charge to keep our country together years later, decades later, and now the times have found us to save our democracy. That is what we are here to do.”

It’s not the first time Pelosi has quoted Paine, though Paine did not mention declaring “war” but rather declaring independence.

Her rhetoric over the past several years, however, has been remarkably similar in her misquotation and urging America towards violence against Donald Trump and his supporters. This eventually culminated in the assassination attempt against Trump earlier this year.

Trump Promises to Rehire Every Unvaxxed Veteran Fired by Biden-Harris with an Apology and Back Pay.

Former President Donald J. Trump has vowed to rehire every military veteran fired for declining to comply with the Biden-Harris regime’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate with an apology from the government and full back pay. He made the promise at a rally in Asheboro, North Carolina, alongside his running mate, Senator J.D. Vance—his first outdoor event since his near-assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania.

“Kamala and Crooked Joe purged 8,000 servicemembers from our military for refusing their Covid vaccine mandate,” Trump said.

“[The Trump administration] didn’t want a mandate… You just can’t do that,” he continued, vowing: “I will rehire every patriot who was fired from the military with an apology and with back pay. They will get their back pay and an apology from our government,” he promised.

“Hopefully, they have great jobs right now, and they’re making a lot of money, but if they want to come back in, they get an apology, and we sign them up, and they get their back pay… The mandate stuff should have never happened,” he lamented.

“Thanks to Comrade Kamala and Joe Biden, morale in our military is now so low that almost every single branch is suffering a major recruitment and retention crisis,” he observed.

The Biden-Harris regime also imposed vaccine mandates on federal government employees generally, federal contractors, and healthcare workers at facilities in receipt of Medicare and Medicaid funding.

WATCH: Trump Movingly Discusses Addiction and His Late Brother Fred with Theo Von.

Former President Donald J. Trump sat down with Theo Von—who boasts one of the most listened-to podcasts in the U.S.—to discuss a wide range of issues facing the country. However, one moment stood out: Von—himself in addiction recovery—and Trump discussing the former president‘s late brother Fred, his struggles with alcoholism, and what Trump learned from the man he admired.

The exchange shows a side of Trump few on the political left want to acknowledge: a man sincerely in tune with the struggles faced by countless Americans every day. “I don’t drink or smoke,” Trump told Von after the latter mentioned he had never seen him take a drink at a campaign event. Trump explained: “I had a great brother who taught me a lesson: don’t drink. Don’t drink, and he said don’t smoke.”

Fred Trump, the older brother of former President Trump, struggled with alcoholism and ultimately succumbed to it in 1981. Speaking with Von, Trump explained his love and admiration for his older brother—despite his struggles—describing him as a “great” and “handsome” guy who was full of “wisdom” and had “a great personality.”

“He had a problem with alcohol and smoked a lot,” Trump told Von, adding that he now tells people, “no drugs, no drinking, no cigarettes. I tell that to my kids all of the time.”

‘A VERY COMMON STORY.’

Trump lamented that, like his brother, many Americans struggle with addiction. “You know, this is not unique; this is a very common story, unfortunately,” Trump said. He explained the importance of discussing the issues of substance abuse and addiction publicly as it often serves to help others. Trump added that it is worth the personal pain, even if it brings clarity to just one other person.

Von, thanking Trump for his openness, noted that many of his listeners have or still struggle with addiction and other issues and that his podcast makes it a point to address these problems and bring hope of recovery. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates upwards of 178,000 Americans die from excessive alcohol use each year. Additionally, it estimates nearly 20 percent of Americans aged 12 or older struggle with substance abuse.

Trump Laments ‘Destruction, Riots, and Death in the Streets’ in Britain.

Former President Donald J. Trump is lamenting the “Destruction, Riots, and Death in the streets of British Cities,” attributing much of the country’s “Economic Chaos” to radical net zero policies. He warns Vice President Kamala Harris will bring the same chaos to the United States if she wins the presidential election in November.

“Kamala Harris supports the Environmental Extremists’ ‘NET-ZERO’ Energy Policy – A Radical Left Agenda to abolish Coal, Oil, and Natural Gas, and plunge MILLIONS into Poverty,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.

“Net Zero Lunatics are currently destroying the Economies of many other Countries, including the U.K. Their Radical, Self-Destructive Policy has led the U.K. to the Worst Economic Growth since 1780, now causing Economic Chaos, Destruction, Riots, and Death in the streets of British Cities,” he said.

GDP per capita has been stagnant or negative for over a decade despite efforts to stimulate the economy through record-breaking mass migration. Crimes associated with mass migration triggered the riots Trump referred to, with anti-immigration protesters and Muslim and far-left counter-protesters taking to the streets after a mass stabbing of young girls by a migration-background teenager in Southport, England.

Net zero policies under the previous Conservative (Tory) government did not help the situation, with fracking banned and coal power plants shut down en masse, resulting in high prices and massive job losses in sectors like steel. The Labour government elected on July 4 is exacerbating the situation, restricting offshore oil and gas exploration.

“In the United States, Net Zero Fanatics like Kamala Harris want to shut down Power Plants, even as the cost of Energy and Electricity is up 30 to 50% and climbing – NOT IF I’M PRESIDENT!” Trump vowed. “I will cut your Energy costs in HALF, and Net Zero will be DEAD on Day One!”

During her 2020 bid for the presidency, Harris promised to ban fracking on “day one,” although she now claims she will not do this.

Trump Says He Would ‘Certainly’ Be Open to ‘Brilliant’ RFK Jr. Serving In His Admin.

Former President Donald J. Trump said he would be open to appointing independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to a post in his administration should the 2024 Republican nominee retake the White House in November. Speaking with the press following a campaign stop in Michigan on Tuesday, Trump said, regarding Kennedy, “I like him, and I respect him.”

“He’s a brilliant guy. He’s a very smart guy. I’ve known him for a very long time,” the former President said while addressing the possibility that Kennedy may end his presidential bid and back Trump with the expectation he’d receive a political appointment. “I didn’t know he was thinking about getting out, but if he is thinking about getting out, certainly I’d be open to it,” Trump said.

When pressed again about whether he’d consider appointing Kennedy to a position in his administration, Trump responded: “I probably would, if something like that would happen. He’s a very different kind of guy—a very smart guy. And, yeah, I would be honored by that endorsement, certainly.”

KENNEDY’S CAMP.

Speculation regarding the future of the Kennedy presidential campaign hit a fever pitch earlier on Tuesday when a podcast interview with his running mate, Nicole Shanahan, was posted to YouTube. During the podcast, Shanahan explained how their campaign is currently weighing its future—and the fading hope of forming a new third political party—following lackluster fundraising and constant attacks by a Democrat-aligned SuperPAC.

“There’s two options that we’re looking at, and one is staying in, forming that new party. But we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and Waltz presidency because we draw votes from Trump,” Shanahan said. “Or, we walk away right now and join forces with Donald Trump and explain to our base why we’re making this decision.”

A leaked call between Trump and Kennedy following the latter’s near-assassination showed the America First leader was open to the independent candidate joining a restored Trump administration, possibly in a role investigating vaccine safety.

Kennedy, who says Kamala Harris’s Democratic Party would be “unrecognizable” to his father, Robert ‘Bobby’ Kennedy Sr., and uncle, President John F. Kennedy, said after the call that he had “a lot of respect for President Trump for reaching out to me.”

“Nobody from the DNC, high or low, has ever reached out to me in 18 months,” he added.

Biden Bows Out in Angry Speech Filled with Long-Debunked Lies.

Joe Biden bowed out of frontline politics at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Monday in an angry speech replete with well-worn lies about former President Donald J. Trump, including the “bloodbath” hoax, the “fine people” hoax, and the “suckers and losers” hoax.

‘BLOODBATH.’

The 81-year-old screamed at one point in his speech that Trump is “promising a bloodbath if he loses,” implying the America First leader is threatening political violence.

However, the bloodbath hoax, popularized by the far-left MeidasTouch Network—funded by Epstein Island visitor Reid Hoffman and the pervert-founded Lincoln Project—takes rally remarks by Trump that “if I don’t get elected, it’s going to be a bloodbath” grossly out of context. He was referring to a bloodbath for the U.S. auto industry if the Democrats allow China to flood the U.S. market with foreign cars manufactured in Mexico:

‘FINE PEOPLE.’

Biden also regurgitated the “fine people” hoax, which he has been doing for years. This suggests then-President Trump said anti-Semitic and far-right extremists at an event protesting the removal of a Confederate statue in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 were “fine people.”

This has been debunked even by self-styled fact-checkers traditionally hostile to Trump, who explicitly stated he was “not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists” when he referred to “fine people” because “they should be condemned totally.”

‘SUCKERS AND LOSERS.’

Biden’s most egregious comments hinged on the “suckers and losers” hoax. This purports that, while attending events to mark the anniversary of the First World War in France, he declined to visit a cemetery to honor fallen American soldiers because he regarded them as “suckers” and “losers.”

“Trump, when in Europe, would not go to the grave sites in one of the, France [sic],” Biden said. “The brave service members who gave their lives to this country, he called them suckers and losers. Who in the hell does he think he is? Who does he think he is?!” he screamed.

Trump has denied the lurid story as ridiculous on its face: “Think of it from a practical standpoint. I’m standing there with generals and military people… I say, ‘These people are suckers and losers.’ Now, think of it: unless you’re a psycho or a crazy person or a very stupid person, who would say that? Who would say it to military people?”

Fourteen people who were with Trump on the France trip have debunked the hoax. Even John Bolton, a harsh critic of Trump, has confirmed he was present for the conversation where the “losers” comments were supposedly made, saying the claim is “simply false.”

Trump Says ‘Comrade Kamala’ Has Backed Out of Fox News Debate.

Vice President Kamala Harris has backed out of a debate against former President Donald J. Trump on September 4, according to the America First leader. Trump says he is “not surprised” that “Comrade Kamala” is unwilling to attend the Fox News-hosted debate, as it would be “very difficult” for her to “defend her record setting Flip-Flopping on absolutely everything she once believed in” without the support of friendly moderators.

President Trump highlighted Harris’s 2020 pledge to ban fracking on “day one” of a Harris administration—which she now claims she will not do, likely because it would destroy many jobs in the critical swing state of Pennsylvania.

Trump also noted Harris’s “HORRIBLE Performance on the Border, [with] millions of criminals and people from mental institutions and terrorists [being] allowed to pour into our Country, totally unchecked and unvetted.”

“It’s called, and she LOVES IT, an OPEN BORDER,” Trump said, noting that Joe Biden tasked Harris in 2021 with tackling the “root causes” of illegal immigration as “Border Czar”—an informal title she and her corporate media allies now deny, as illegal immigration actually reached unprecedented heights under her watch.

Her disinterest in her border role is perhaps unsurprising as, during her tenure as the Senate’s most liberal member, she compared U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities tackling illegal immigration to the activities of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK).

Harris is scheduled to face Trump at a September 10 debate hosted by ABC News, a friendly outlet that attacked Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, for supporting the Child Tax Credit in a misguided attempt to provide cover for Harris.

Musk ‘Willing to Serve’ as Secretary of State for Government Efficiency.

Elon Musk says he is “willing to serve” in government, sharing an Artificial Intelligence-generated image of himself as Secretary of State for Government Efficiency (DOGE). Former President Donald J. Trump, whom Musk has endorsed, told the tech mogul he would “love” to appoint him to a government efficiency commission during a recent conversation.

Speaking together on X, formerly Twitter, Trump and Musk discussed the “incredible” waste in government spending, which Musk believes is the root cause of inflation.

“[N]obody negotiates prices,” Trump agreed, arguing part of the problem is the reduction in choice as a result of corporate mergers: “You used to have a lot of people making jets, and you end up with two companies,” he explained. The America First leader cited the example of Air Force One, with officials trying to get him to sign off $5.7 billion for Boeing to provide two aircraft when he was in the White House.

Musk said you could multiply this “insane” number across government “by a zillion,” with Trump agreeing that the waste is “astronomical.”

“I think it would be great to just have a government efficiency commission that takes a look at these things and just ensures that the taxpayer money, the taxpayer’s hard-earned money, is spent in a good way. I’d be happy to help out on such a commission,” Musk said.

“I’d love it,” Trump replied.

Previously, Musk has slammed Kamala Harris for her work as rural broadband czar. With a budget of $42 billion, she has failed to connect a single person to the Internet since 2021. He believes his SpaceX firm, provides high-quality Intenet connections to users in over 100 countries through the Starlink satellite network, could have finished the job at a fraction of the price by now.

Mar-a-Lago is More Profitable Than Ever.

In his latest financial disclosure, former President Donald J. Trump reports $56.9 million in resort-related revenue at Mar-a-Lago, an increase from the previous year’s $52.3 million. The documents, released on Thursday, list Mar-a-Lago among Trump’s employment assets, income, and retirement accounts—revealing the club’s value as exceeding $50 million.

In the disclosure, Mar-a-Lago Club, L.L.C. is stated to have produced $56,935,122 in resort-related revenue this year, up from the sum reported in last year’s filing to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). The luxurious Palm Beach resort has emerged as a focal point for Trump’s political engagements—including where he launched his 2024 presidential bid and has held numerous news conferences and campaign events.

A historic landmark and so-called Winter White House from 1973 to 1981, Mar-a-Lago has become synonymous with the MAGA movement and a hub for right-wing events. A New York Times analysis indicates that since 2021, the resort has predominantly been booked by right-wing organizations and political fundraisers, including Turning Point USA and the America First Policy Institute (AFPI).

The surge in Mar-a-Lago’s revenue might also be attributed to increased membership fees. During a recent New York civil fraud trial, a Trump Organization analyst revealed that the club’s initiation fee had escalated to $600,000, up from $100,000 in 2016. Four new membership spots, priced at $1 million each, are set to become available in October.

Judge Arthur Engoron—who presided over the civil fraud case—bizarrely ruled that the historic property was only worth $18 million despite having been listed for sale at $20 million in 1981 when the federal government moved to liquidate the estate. In reality, Mar-a-Lago is likely worth hundreds of millions of dollars, if not more, given its location, historic nature, and revenue stream.
