23,000 job losses in July, and another 103,000 jobs lost in May and June. Trump inherited an economy that was clearly on the upswing and ruined it with a toxic brew of tariffs, corruption and the Iran War. This is what happens when you put an economically illiterate crook in charge of our economy.

In a troubling sign for the economy, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said that it revised down the prior two months’ jobs by a combined 103,000.

A day after The Late Show ended, Colbert hosted an episode of public access program Only In Monroe, reviving his 11-year-old gag. How bad is CBS/Paramount taking it? They issued copyright complaints for a show they don't own. 🤣 CBS would hate it if you watch here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DlF...

@MatthewKeysLive
Paramount is apparently trying to suppress copies of "Only in Monroe" from appearing on other social platforms by filing frivolous copyright notices, even though the show was produced by a public access TV channel and doesn't use their intellectual property...

Guess no one told him this little nonfun fact
what is the number one cause of death of pregnant women? In the search bar

Answer:

Homicide
Homicide is the number 1 cause of death for pregnant women.
Boyfriends and husbands who don't want to have a baby will take matters into their own hands.
Not only was the claim verifiable, it was also well documented over time.
