Trump 2.0

[Ron in Regina]

Talk about shooting the messenger! "We need ‘accurate’ Jobs Numbers. I have directed my Team to fire this Biden Political Appointee, IMMEDIATELY. She will be replaced with someone much more competent and qualified," Trump said. "Important numbers like this must be fair and accurate, they can’t be manipulated for political purposes."

(The Senate in January 2024 confirmed McEntarfer, an appointment of former President Joe Biden. A labor economist, McEntarfer has worked 20 years in the federal government, including previous stints at the U.S. Census Bureau and Treasury Department)

In addition to Friday's release of the July jobs report ‒ which was well below the 105,000 new jobs that had been estimated ‒ the Labor Department's job gains for May and June were revised down by 258,000, portraying a much weaker labor market than believed in late spring and early summer.

Trump also accused McEntarfer of "faking the jobs numbers before the (2024) election" to help Democratic nominee Kamala Harris. Trump pointed to robust jobs reports in March, August and September of 2024 that were later revised lower.

The catch is, they have to get out of the basement, drop the iPad, and wake up in the morning. And no working from home.

Days after he sent letters instructing top pharmaceutical manufacturers to use a “most favored nation” pricing model for prescription drugs, President Donald Trump told reporters on Sunday that he had cut costs by up to 1,500%.

TRUMP: “You know, we’ve cut drug prices by 1,200, 1,300, 1,400, 1,500%. I don’t mean 50%, I mean 14 — 1,500%.”

Asked what Trump was using to back up his claim, White House spokesman Kush Desai said: “It’s an objective fact that Americans are paying exponentially more for the same exact drugs as people in other developed countries pay, and it’s an objective fact that no other Administration has done more to rectify this unfair burden for the American people.”

The White House provided a chart of price differentials for drugs in the U.S. and comparable countries, but did not offer any other evidence. On Sunday, Trump also described cuts to drug prices as a future development, not that already happened.

“So we’ll be dropping drug prices,” he said. “It will start over the next two to three months by 1,200, 1,300 and even 1,400%.”

Trump says he will reduce drug prices by amounts "that nobody can even imagine"

Well, that is hard to imagine, but if he manages to do that, good! Good on America! They could use a break like that to offset what they’re going to be paying in tariffs on imports from pretty much everywhere.

Donald Trump doubles down on mathematically impossible drug price cuts

"We've cut drug prices by 1,200, 1,300, 1,400, 1,500 percent. I don't mean 50 percent. I mean 14-, 1,500 percent," Trump said.

"Most favoured nation" is an international customs and duties thing. Pharmaceuticals should never have customs or duties taxes. Hors tax all the way.

GardaWorld does Security for lots of places, sure. They even had contract with the Hospitals in NB a few years back (and are a shit company to work for from what I saw).

But this?

Fuuuuck them. And if they were still doing the Security Work for NB's hospitals I'd be so livid and pushing for that contract to end so fast...

Un-fucking-acceptable.
