Trump on Hispanic farm workers: ‘They don't get a bad back, because if they get a bad back, they die'
Donald Trump has raised eyebrows with comments he made about farm laborers during a phone interview with CNBC. The President spoke on Tuesday, 5 August 2025, explaining his belief that deported immigrant farm employees are not easy to replace with native-born workers. Farmers have been left short of staff due to the Trump administration's ICE round-ups of undocumented migrants. Trump suggested people who live 'in the inner city' are 'not doing that [farm] work' but Hispanic migrants do it 'naturally'. He then launched into a story about a conversation he had once had with a farmer. Trump says he asked, "What happens if they get a bad back?" to which the farmer allegedly responded, "They don't get a bad back, sir, because if they get a bad back, they die".

Trump soars to new HEIGHTS and climbs roof for bird's eye view of White House makeover
President Donald Trump appeared at an unusual spot on Tuesday - the West Wing roof - as he hinted there could be more White House renovations up his sleeve. The president brought an entourage with him and stepped outside the White House residence onto the roof of the Palm Room and the press briefing room - a single-story portion of the West Wing that overlooks the newly revamped Rose Garden. 'Sir, why are you on the roof?' a reporter yelled to the president. 'Mr. President, what are you doing up there?' another journalist asked. Trump gave his trademark fist pump. 'Taking a little walk,' he replied. He noted that the planned White House ballroom would be on the other side of the residence, as there are plans to add 90,000 square feet to the current East Wing, where first lady Melania Trump has her offices. He then hinted that he could add something on top of where he was standing, making a domed gesture with his hands. 'Something beautiful,' he said. 'More ways to spend my money. We'll show you. It's just another way to spend my money for the country.' President Donald Trump is seen shouting to reporters from the roof of the West Wing over where the White House press briefing room is located 'Anything I do is financed by me so you don't have to worry, it's contributed,' he continued. 'Just like my salary is contributed but nobody ever mentions that.' Trump continued his tour and then was asked about his plans for the West Wing roof yet again. He joked that he was building 'nuclear missiles' on the roof. He then stepped back into the residence. Trump's appearance on the roof comes after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced Thursday that the ballroom project was a go. Construction on the East Wing will begin in September, she said, with the expected cost to be around $200 million. Trump said he would finance all or part of the ballroom project, with the rest given by donors. The Rose Garden project is also coming to a close. Asked by the Daily Mail on Sunday how he thought it turned out, Trump said the project had received 'great reviews.' 'Yeah, we're getting great reviews of the Rose Garden and we had to do it,' the president said. 'When we had a press conference you'd sink into the mud. It was grass and it was very wet, always wet and damp and wet, and if it rained it would take three, four, five days to dry out and we couldn't use it really for the intended purpose,' he continued. The president took out the Rose Garden's grassy center, making it more patio-like instead. 'And it's a beautiful white stone and it's a stone that's the same color as the White House itself,' Trump said. 'And because it's very white it's going to reflect the heat and it's not going to be very hot.' The patio's drainage system resembles the American flag and the presidential seal has been stamped in the corners of the patio. Since taking office in January, Trump has also erected two large American flags on the White House campus, on both the North and South Lawn.

Tesla, Elon Musk sued by shareholders over Robotaxi claims
Aug 5 (Reuters) - Elon Musk and Tesla (TSLA.O), opens new tab were sued by shareholders who accused them of securities fraud for concealing the significant risk that the company's self-driving vehicles, including the Robotaxi, were dangerous. The proposed class action was filed on Monday night, following Tesla's first public test of its robotaxis in late June in the company's Austin, Texas, hometown. That test showed the vehicles speeding, braking suddenly, driving over a curb, entering the wrong lane, and dropping off passengers in the middle of multilane roads. Tesla's share price fell 6.1% over two trading days after the test began, wiping out about $68 billion of market value. Musk and his electric vehicle maker were accused of repeatedly overstating the effectiveness of and prospects for their autonomous driving technology, inflating Tesla's financial prospects and stock price. Shareholders said this included Musk's assurance on an April 22 conference call that Tesla was "laser-focused on bringing robotaxi to Austin in June," and Tesla's claim the same day that its approach to autonomous driving would deliver "scalable and safe deployment across diverse geographies and use cases." Tesla did not immediately respond on Tuesday to requests for comment. Chief Financial Officer Viabhav Taneja and his predecessor Zachary Kirkhorn are also defendants. Expanding robotaxis is crucial for Tesla as the company faces falling demand for its aging electric vehicles and a backlash over Musk's politics. Musk, the world's richest person, wants to offer the service to half the U.S. population by year end, but must convince regulators and assure the public his technology is safe. Monday's lawsuit in Austin federal court is led by Tesla shareholder Denise Morand, and seeks damages for shareholders between April 19, 2023 and June 22, 2025. A Florida jury on August 1 found Tesla 33% responsible for a 2019 crash involving its self-driving software, which killed a 22-year-old woman and injured her boyfriend, and ordered it to pay about $243 million in damages to victims. Tesla blamed the driver and plans to appeal. The case is Morand v Tesla Inc et al, U.S. District Court, Western District of Texas, No. 25-01213.
