Betty and I had a wonderful time at the Torrance Firefighters Spaghetti Dinner and Bake Sale tonight! Thank you to the amazing firefighters who protect us, and to all those who support our firefighters. Torrance is one of the few cities that has a Class 1 Fire Department.

The trump economy sucks: 92,000 jobs LOST last month. Unemployment rate INCREASES to 4.4%. Labor force participation DROPS. And what is trump focused on? Golden drapes and his Epstein ballroom.

A terrible February jobs report. The U.S. economy LOST 92,000 jobs last month, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.4%, one of the highest levels seen in the past few years. December was revised down to -17,000 jobs, while January was revised to 126,000.

The producer price index (PPI), a leading indicator of CPI, came in hot. Expectations were that Core PPI would be 3.0%, but prices jumped by 3.6%. The tariffs and policies of trump and his rubber stamp Republicans are crushing the American economy and super charging inflation.

The US PPI report came in hotter than expected, particularly for the core measure. January core PPI rose 0.8%, significantly surpassing the 0.3% consensus and marking the highest monthly increase since March 2022. The headline figure also exceeded expectations at 0.5% (against a 0.3% forecast). ...

Tourism is down in the U.S. under Trump, while globally it is up. Kristi Noem turned DHS into something that is FUBAR and tourists are scared to come. A British woman was shackled and slept on floor of cell for six weeks even though she had a valid visa. Noem must resign.

Honored to campaign with the amazing Rep George Whitesides last week! He works hard every day on behalf of his constituents, and is fighting to reduce wildfire risk, improve our economy and address the cost of living emergency. You can help him here: www.georgewhitesides.com

What does Trump do after the Supreme Court strikes down his massive tax increase? He acts like a crybaby and imposes temporary tariffs of 10% that will expire in 150 days. Democrats will kill the temporary tariffs when they expire. Republicans support tariffs. November is coming.

BREAKING: Trump just melted down in front of the world, showing his anger about the Supreme Court. He announced new, global 10% tariffs. He said he can now "destroy" any country he wants. He called his own Conservative Justices a disgrace. He would not commit to paying companies back.

Visited Smog City Brewery in Torrance this week. Small breweries like Smog City are feeling real economic pressure these days. Tariffs have increased the cost of key ingredients and raw materials needed for their businesses. Business owners & beer lovers are feeling the pain of Trump's tariffs.

Rev. Jesse Jackson made America a better place because of his servant leadership. He instilled in millions of people the revolutionary idea that “I am Somebody.” Our world is a lesser place because of his passing, but Heaven just received a giant.

I recently finished reading the science fiction classics Hyperion and Fall of Hyperion, which were published more than three and a half decades ago. The descriptions of Artificial Intelligence in the books are fascinating and prescient.

Core CPI accelerated in January by the most since August. Core inflation increased .3% from December. Trump’s tariffs—and the sycophantic Republicans that support the tariffs—continue to increase prices. November is coming.
