Jobs Report Upends Fed’s Next Move | Salt Lake City News

2026/08/07

The latest jobs report just dropped—and it’s a shocker: 23,000 jobs lost last month, with another 103,000 shaved off past numbers. That drags the annual average job gain down to just 34,000. While unemployment dipped to 4.1%, it’s mostly because 264,000 people stopped looking for work—pushing labor participation to its lowest since early 2021 and weakest outside the pandemic since the mid-70s. Retail took a brutal hit, losing 19,000 jobs, especially in general merchandise stores. This upends

2026/08/07

Trump’s latest push to curb birthright citizenship includes new executive orders targeting children born to foreign government workers, terrorists, and lobbyists — and cracking down on “birth tourism” by ordering agencies to block foreigners from entering the U.S. solely to give birth. Though the Supreme Court previously blocked a broader version of this plan, Trump insists he’s found another route. Critics say these moves mostly restate existing law and don’t fundamentally change anything —

2026/08/07

Michigan’s Senate race just got weird: Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed and former President Donald Trump, political opposites, now agree on one thing—ending the Senate filibuster. El-Sayed wants to end it to force transparency, while Trump seeks to weaken it to push voting restrictions. But here’s the twist: if El-Sayed wins but Democrats stay in the minority, he’d likely back off to avoid empowering Republicans. And Trump? He’d scream if Democrats ever changed the rules later.

American employers slashed 23,000 jobs last month — a shocking reversal after revisions stripped over 100,000 positions from prior months — missing economists’ forecasts by more than 100,000. The slowdown isn’t just hiring; wage growth is cooling too, with experts calling the report “weak across the board.” Companies are holding off on new hires, leaving workers with fewer opportunities and less leverage.

A federal appeals court has halted a $400 million White House ballroom project, ruling that Congress must approve such a major renovation before construction can begin. The D.C.

Led by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, opponents argue the administration overstepped its authority. Despite President Trump’s public claims of progress and a
