02The economy people actually live in
Wages. Work. Food. Rent. Energy.
No Dow Jones confetti. This board follows purchasing power, jobs, household prices, and the bills that decide whether ordinary people can breathe.
Live source rotation
BLS public data API leads this pass; the next checks rotate through Federal Reserve FRED mirror.
Official labor and price series rotate with an independent federal mirror.Real hourly wages↓
-0.2%
Pay after inflation fell over the year. This is purchasing power, not a stock index.
Unemployment→
4.1%
The headline unemployment rate held steady, even as payroll employment declined.
Jobs added or lost↓
-23K
Nonfarm payroll employment declined. Local public education and retail trade led the losses.
Overall prices↓
3.4%
Prices rose 3.4% over the year, still outpacing real wage growth.
Groceries↑
2.7%
Food at home rose 2.7%. Fruit and vegetables rose 5.1%.
Shelter costs↓
3.2%
Rent and owners' equivalent rent each rose again during July.
Household energy↑
14.7%
Energy costs surged, driven by gasoline prices that were 24.6% higher than a year earlier.
New jobless claims↓
206K
Claims dipped by 6,000, while continuing claims rose to 1.799 million.
What “live” means here: the dashboard checks every 60 seconds and rotates between the BLS public API and the Federal Reserve's FRED mirror. Federal statistics still move only when an agency publishes a release. The site never invents movement between releases.
03Human cost
Deaths tied to regime policy
Observed deaths, modeled estimates, and future projections are fundamentally different. They are separated, labeled, and never added into one sensational but meaningless total.
Live source rotation
National Immigration Project leads this pass; the next checks rotate through Detention Watch Network, Impact Counter, Humane Borders reporting.
Observed counts and modeled estimates are rechecked separately and never combined.DOCUMENTED
57Deaths in ICE custody
At least 33 people died in ICE custody in 2025 and at least 24 more had died in 2026 by Aug. 4.
Custody does not by itself establish the medical cause in every case. The government controlled the conditions of confinement.
DOCUMENTED
73Migrant remains recovered in Arizona
Nineteen bodies were recovered in July alone. Researchers say deterrence policies force people into deadlier routes.
This is a recovered-body count, not a complete estimate of deaths and not a count limited to federal custody.
MODELED
781,343Estimated deaths from aid cuts
A disease-modeling project estimated the mortality caused by discontinuing U.S.-funded health and humanitarian programs.
This is a modeled excess-death estimate, not a registry of individually confirmed deaths.
MODELED
518,428Children in the one-year aid-cut model
Children account for most of the estimated deaths in the one-year Impact Counter model.
Modeled estimate. It is shown separately and is never added to observed custody deaths.
PROJECTED
14.1MPreventable deaths if USAID cuts persist
Researchers projected more than 14 million additional deaths, including about 4.5 million children under five.
Long-range projection under a continued-cuts scenario, not deaths that have already occurred.
04Public judgment
Trump approval and issue metrics
The lead approval reading rotates between independent polling sources. Every card keeps its pollster, field date, sample information when published, and exact question context. Older issue polls remain dated until a comparable measure replaces them.
Live source rotation

05Propaganda defense
Right-wing narrative fact check
Falsehoods do damage through repetition. This desk tracks claims moving through the Trump administration, Republican officials, right-wing media, and aligned social accounts, then links each verdict to independent reporting and evidence.
Live source rotation
FactCheck.org leads this pass; the next checks rotate through PolitiFact, Independent fact-check index.
Independent fact-check sources rotate each minute; only false or misleading right-wing claims enter this desk.…
False or misleading narratives on file
FactCheck.org, PolitiFact, and an independent fact-check index are rechecked every 60 seconds.
Checking the latest independent fact-check feeds...
Desk rule: a claim appears here only when an independent fact-check source has rated it false, misleading, unsupported, or manipulated. The dashboard does not assign verdicts on its own.

Methodology and source policy
How this monitor handles truth under an authoritarian government
Check, rotate, preserve
The page asks a rotating set of data and fact-check sources for updates every 60 seconds. Reports remain live for 30 minutes, then move into durable archive storage. Historical Google News searches are divided into narrower date windows whenever a result limit is reached.
Separate unlike evidence
Confirmed deaths, deaths in government custody, modeled excess deaths, and long-term projections are shown as different categories. The dashboard never combines them.
Expose the editorial position
This project identifies the Trump regime as fascist because of its attacks on pluralism, civil liberties, immigrants, democratic checks, the press, and organized opposition. Facts beneath that judgment remain directly sourced.
Center material life
Economic coverage prioritizes wages after inflation, employment, rent, food, energy, health, and household hardship. Markets may appear in reporting, but they do not stand in for human welfare.
