Pro-Trump Proud Boys have fought with Black Lives Matter protesters in Salem, Oregon, at the end of a pro-Trump caravan which set out earlier on Monday from Oregon City, 30 miles away. The caravan officially ended outside of Salem at 3pm, but some of the participants continued into the city, where the Proud Boys and BLM scuffles were taking place. At least two pro-Trump demonstrators were arrested during Monday afternoon's unrest. The caravan came a week after a previous caravan around Portland ended with the death of one Trump supporter, shot dead by an Antifa gunman, who was killed by police five days later.

Donald Trump claimed on Monday that he opposes schools teaching the New York Times' 1619 Project because it seeks to 'change our history' and slammed protesters for tearing down Confederate monuments across the US. During a press conference Trump was asked about instructors using the project to teach slavery in America and whether he wanted the subject to be taught. In response, the president said: 'I want everybody to know everything they can about our history. I am not a believer in cancel culture, the good or the bad, if you don't study the bad it could happen again. So I do want that subject studied very carefully and accurately.' Trump then claimed: 'But, we grew up with a certain history and now they're trying to change our history. Revisionist history, That's why they want to take down our monuments, take down our statues.' The president was referring to the removal of several Confederate monuments amid the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement.

President Donald Trump said the Democratic ticket, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, should 'immediately apologize for the reckless anti-vaccine rhetoric' they've deployed during his North Portico press conference on Monday. 'They're political lies. They'll say anything and it's so dangerous for our country what they say,' Trump went on. 'But the vaccine will be very safe and very effective and it will be delivered very soon.'
Jeff Mason of Reuters had just begun speaking when Trump cut him off and said: 'You're going to have to take that off, please. You can take it off. How many feet are you away?' Mason offered to speak louder, at which point Trump interjected: 'Well, if you don't take it off, you're very muffled, so if you would take it off, it would be a lot easier.' The reporter declined to remove his mask and politely raised his voice again, asking: 'Is that better?' Trump rolled his eyes and responded: 'It's... better, yeah.'

Both the President and investors are betting everything on a fast-tracked coronavirus vaccine… but what if they’re accidentally unleashing a medical time bomb on America?
The euphoria of today’s Wall Street investors is based primarily on two things: 1) Continued Fed money printing, and 2) Expectations that a coronavirus vaccine will arrive in November and magically end the pandemic.
At the same time, President Trump is also aggressively pushing a coronavirus vaccine to be released before Election Day, hoping that some significant portion of the country’s population will happily allow themselves to be injected with an experimental, fast-tracked medical intervention just two days before the election. (See VaccineWars.com for more coverage of the ongoing vaccine wars in America.)

Trump says troops love him even if Pentagon brass doesn't
President Trump said Monday that he has the support of U.S. troops, if not necessarily their bosses in the Pentagon.
“I'm not saying the military is in love with me, the soldiers are," Trump said at a Labor Day press conference.
"The top people in the Pentagon probably aren't," the commander in chief continued, "because they want to do nothing but fight wars so that all of those wonderful companies — that make the bombs, and make the planes, and make everything else — stay happy. But we're getting out of the endless wars."
