'BradCast' 10/9/2025: Trump Labor Dept. Warns Trump Immigration Policy Sparking Food Shortage by Progressive Voices

Kendal Smith, Commissioner · Vermont Department of Labor, joins Anthony & Dan to talk about her vision for the Labor Dept.

Today's show discusses several economic reports indicating US economy is entering a period of instability. Labor Dept. reports 911,000 fewer jobs were created March 24-March 25 (before summer jobs crash) than were reported by its monthly jobs reports; Consumer prices rising again since April (especially services); US Census Bureau reports household real incomes (averages and median) have not changed since 2019 except for the wealthiest 5% households; US poverty levels back up to 2019 levels; 27 million still without any health insurance (before Trump cuts to Medicaid and ACA take effect). The show also comments on the popular uprising occurring in France (as Europe starts cutting social benefits to pay for military expansions and Ukraine). And concludes with what's behind the media hype that Russia has attacked Poland with drones.

Labor Department says the U.S. added just 22,000 jobs in August, lower than expectations, and the unemployment rate goes up to 4.3%. President Donald Trump says the real jobs numbers will be next year, after his policies have a chance to take effect; Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) talks about her vision of keeping the needs of the U.S. middle class front and center in U.S. foreign policy; Heritage Foundation think tank is about to publish a paper recommending government policies reward and promote married heterosexual couples having more children.

Mike Ferguson in the Morning 11-22-24 Mark Mix from National Right To Work talks about a letter he sent to President Trump urging him to reject a ploy by Big Labor to put Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer of Oregon in charge of overseeing the nation's labor policy. Chavez-DeRemer is a union boss lackey who sold out American workers' individual rights during her tenure. As Mark's letter explains, Chavez-DeRemer tried to ingratiate the union political machine to boost her political fortunes, most notably by co-sponsoring the so-called “PRO Act,” which would expose millions more workers nationwide to the threat of being forced to pay union dues or be fired by eliminating state Right to Work laws nationwide. But her attempt to line union bosses' pockets with forced union dues didn't win over voters, who threw her out of office. The PRO Act's other provisions provide more than enough evidence for why Chavez-DeRemer would jeopardize worker freedom if installed as Labor Secretary: The Act would wipe out the gig economy by subjecting independent contractors to union boss power, it would give union bosses far more power to seize power in a workplace without even letting workers vote on the matter, and it would gag employers during a union organizing drive so employees only hear union bosses' side of the story, and much more.

the latest US Labor Dept jobs out today show a rapidly deteriorating jobs market. Not just in the media oft-cited CES (large corporations) jobs data but in the Labor Dept's second CPS survey that picks up smaller businesses which is retreating even faster.  CES jobs for October rose a mere 12,000. (And previous months were revised down to an average jobs growth of only 67,000/mo. July-Sept. Even worse, the CPS jobs survey showed -220,000 net employment fall in October. Full time jobs continued to disappear while part time rose. Other negative job stats were discussed in the show. Slowing jobs picture contradicts media hype the economy was doing great in third quarter. The second half of the show discusses the 3 existential issues in the current US election being totally ignored by both Harris and Trump: the massive and accelerating US budget deficits, national debt and interest payments on the debt, the big Austerity spending cuts coming in 2025 regardless who wins the election, and the BRICS challenge to the very foundations of the US global economy empire that is developing further as well with 13 new BRICS members joining the current 10. (For more on my analysis of the BRICS check out my Youtube interview along with Indian economist, S.L.Kanthan, at https://www.youtube.com/live/veY2FoKsyuY )

How the candidates stand on the two key issues in the election per polls: Economy and Decline of Democracy in USA. Trump v.

How the BRICS expansion and new financial world system represents an existential threat to US global economic hegemony and empire and how it will blowback on US economy. Show concludes with discussion how both parties are engaged in destruction of US democracy.

This Day in Legal History: GDR EstablishedOn October 7, 1949, the German Democratic Republic (GDR), commonly known as East Germany, was officially established. This marked the formal division of Germany into two separate states after World War II. The creation of East Germany came in response to the formation of the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany) earlier that year, in May 1949. Backed by the Soviet Union, the GDR was a socialist state governed by the Socialist Unity Party (SED), and its formation signaled the deepening divide between the Eastern and Western blocs during the Cold War.East Germany's legal and political structure was heavily influenced by Soviet-style socialism, with a focus on state control over the economy and a one-party system that suppressed political opposition. The GDR also became notorious for its secret police, the Stasi, which played a significant role in monitoring and controlling the population. Over time, East Germany built the Berlin Wall in 1961, a physical symbol of the broader ideological and geopolitical divisions of the Cold War.The existence of two Germanys, one capitalist and the other socialist, persisted for 41 years until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, leading to German reunification in 1990. The legal creation of East Germany on this day stands as a key moment in the Cold War era, illustrating the legal and ideological rift that shaped post-war Europe.The U.S. Supreme Court begins its new term with a docket of significant cases, including disputes over guns, transgender rights, workplace discrimination, and online pornography. After a busy summer of emergency decisions, the Court's first case focuses on the Biden administration's appeal regarding "ghost guns," which can be purchased online and assembled without traceable serial numbers. Another key case involves Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip, who seeks a new trial amid questions about his conviction. Additional cases involve Tennessee's ban on gender-affirming care for minors, workplace discrimination claims brought by "majority background" workers, and the authority of federal agencies like the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and FDA. The Court also faces potential involvement in election disputes surrounding the 2024 presidential race. Despite its heavy docket, the shadow of ethical controversies and a proposal for Supreme Court reforms loom over the term.Trump's Election Bid Is a Wild Card as Supreme Court Term OpensUS Supreme Court kicks off new term with important cases ahead | ReutersThe U.S. legal services sector added 1,600 jobs in September 2024, ending a four-month decline, according to the Labor Department. The legal job market's rebound mirrors broader U.S. job growth, with unemployment falling to 4.1%. Recruitment firms report steady demand for legal personnel, especially at large law firms, across various regions and practice areas. Legal sector employment had peaked at 1,190,300 jobs in February 2024. Law firms saw an 11.4% rise in revenue in the first half of the year, with increased demand for transactional practices.US legal jobs rebound after 4-month slump, Labor Dept says | ReutersMcDonald's has filed a lawsuit against several of its beef suppliers, including Tyson Foods, JBS, and Cargill, accusing them of conspiring to inflate beef prices in violation of federal antitrust laws. The fast-food chain alleges that the suppliers colluded to fix and raise beef prices by reducing the supply of slaughter-ready cattle, which artificially elevated prices. The alleged conspiracy, which began in 2015, was aimed at recovering profit margins impacted by years of drought. McDonald's claims that the suppliers limited production by closing plants and restraining market supply. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment, damages three times the amount of losses sustained, and a permanent injunction to prevent future collusion. The U.S. Department of Justice had already investigated price-fixing in 2020, and testimonies from cattle ranchers have reportedly confirmed the conspiracy. During this period, the suppliers saw record profits, with JBS reporting a significant revenue increase between 2014 and 2021.McDonald's Says Tyson and Other Suppliers Fixed Beef Prices This is a public episode.

At the beginning of this week, the Labor Dept.'s new law relating to independent gig workers went into effect. This new rule imposes 6 criteria that employers must use to determine the classification of a worker as independent contractor, or full employee. What is the problem? This regulation may eliminate the option for independent workers to find good work at a good wage. Amanda Griffith from Reason joins the show.

S&P Futures are displaying slight gains this morning ahead of this morning Non-Farms Payrolls report from the Labor Dept which could shed some light on the state of U.S. labor demand and influence how the Federal Reserve approaches upcoming interest rate decisions. Fed Chair Jerome Powell, meanwhile, says policymakers are "not far" from having the confidence that inflation is sustainably easing, fueling hopes for rate cuts this year. Fed Chair appeared dovish in his appearance before the Senate yesterday. Bidens' State of the Union speech was more political and did not contain any significant items that would drive markets today. In Europe, markets are slightly higher as the ECB displayed a dovish tone at the conclusion of the ECB meeting yesterday. Oil prices have reversed course and are now trading lower.

The first job report in the US this year showed positive figures with 353,000 jobs. According to the Labor Dept, average hourly pay also jumped, while the unemployment rate held steady at 3.7%.It's almost double analysts' forecasts, and experts say this indicates the strength of the labor market and the economic growth. Jobs were added in the retail trade, professional and business services, in hospitals as well as nursing and many more. And yet, there are some industries in the US where lack of labor is affecting many businesses. Also, how much will affect local businesses a new trade deal in Northern Ireland, and why former Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak is set to get out of prison earlier than expected.

Johnson said she was just trying to do a good thing for children in the community. After receiving the call to cancel the event, she took to Facebook to let community members know. “Although my heart was in the right place.. someone else's was not,” she wrote Friday. “That person is no doubt reading this message, and this is for you: You CANNOT stop what is destined to be! You didn't win! All you did is make me figure out another way.” She told USA TODAY she was hurt that someone tried to turn it into something negative. “It was a very heartbreaking thing for me,” Johnson said. “I was just trying to do a good thing and help some kids and help the community. For someone to turn it into what they did, it was pretty awful.” Click here to continue reading this story.

(6/1/23) The Employment Report has had an amazing string of "beats" by a large margin, and for a protracted period of time, so tomorrow's employment numbers for May could have significant impact on the Fed's forward plans and the markets' mood. The anomaly has been how employment has remained strong despite Fed efforts to tame the economy. There IS slowing on the Manufacturing side of the economy, but not so in the Services sector, which comprises 80% of the economy, and represents the lower-end of wage earners. Yesterday's JOLTS report was strong, suggesting tomorrow's Labor Dept. report will also exceed expectations, confounding the Fed's efforts to bring down inflation by slowing the economy. "Sticky" Inflation remains higher than the Fed would prefer, and is not on a trajectory to weaken anytime soon. Fed futures are betting on more rate hikes in coming months.

(4/5/23) Markets sell-off, as predicted; Jobs data disappoints, with more to come from ADP & Labor Dept.: Could this be the first cracks in economic data? Market dichotomy of good performance with weak economic data. Are markets predicting a turn? Why are markets rallying on hopes of a Fed pivot (and what such pivot would indicate about the economy)? Markets are resting on support, retesting the 50-DMA. Why do majority of Gen-Z get their news from TikTok? The results of confirmation bias, and lack of challenging viewpoints. The dynamic of fund flows into Fed Repurchase programs; what happens when banks don't "share the wealth." The Fed has created an environment in which investors now have a choice.
