Trump hid in a bunker as America's economy collapsed and hundreds of thousands died due to his malicious handling of COVID. This is why we made this video last June and why we call him #BunkerBoyTrump. pic.twitter.com/77v9lg8yUW

I’ve witnessed disinformation campaigns in authoritarian countries from Russia to China but have rarely seen one as transparent & quantifiably deadly as the current right-wing attack on vaccinations here: 99.2% of US Covid deaths in June were among unvaccinated.

Consumer prices in the US rose by 5.4% in June - the highest level of inflation in 13 years.

Meanwhile real earnings *dropped* in June - real weekly earnings fell 1.4% while real hourly earnings fell by 1.7%.
And that's how inflation can really hit American workers.
Prices on everything continue to rise.

Today, it was announced that the nation's key inflation measure had it’s largest one-month increase in 13 years.
But here’s what the Washington Post “fact checker” decided to run with.
What a joke. https://t.co/IhYqmFV8JR
Union boss @RichardTrumka looked the other way when Biden killed the Keystone XL pipeline & screwed pipeline workers. Now Biden is giving Trumka’s kid a job. #corrupt

Biden to nominate House aide Trumka, Jr. to serve on consumer safety commission https://t.co/0hLhty5zGN
Headline inflation is up but we need to look under the hood to understand what's really going on--used cares, new cars, auto parts, and car rentals accounted for 60% of month-over-month price increases. W/o cars and pandemic-related services, June's monthly inflation was 0.2% https://t.co/Bg3S6mPuKG

Trump should have fired Bill Barr in June during Floyd riots. He should have fired Barr in August when he said any news from the *Durham investigation* would be delayed until after election. And he definitely should have been fired after he refused to investigate vote fraud.
