Trump says Moon asked him to get involved in the dispute between South Korea and Japan: "I said, how many things do I have to get involved in?" He added, "It's like a full-time job, getting involved between Japan and South Korea."
Trump said he has been called by "many, members of the African-American community, friends of mine," with requests to help A$AP Rocky, who he says has tremendous support not only from African-Americans but from "everybody in this country, because we're all one."
Trump said, "I can't imagine anybody ever even thinking of using the debt ceiling as a negotiating wedge." Mick Mulvaney, now his acting chief of staff, is literally right there.
Trump today: "I can't imagine anybody ever even thinking of using the debt ceiling as a negotiating wedge." Trump in 2012:
Asked about the "send her back" chants, Trump attacks Omar for her past remarks, accuses her of hating America, boasts of his crowd size at the rally where the chant was chanted, and says of the crowd, "Those are incredible people. Those are incredible patriots."

Here's a first batch of debate fact checks (more coming). Biden wrong that Obama put protection for DREAMers in actual "law"; Yang exaggerated in attributing mall closures to Amazon alone; Harris actually understated pharma/insurer profits: cnn.com/2019/07/31/pol…
While arguing with each other, Biden and Booker both omitted important context:

1) Biden touted his 2007-onward push to kill the 100-to-1 crack/cocaine sentencing disparity...while not mentioning he was a leading figure behind the 1986 law that created the disparity.
2) Booker touted praise he got from the ACLU, late in his mayoral term, over Newark police reform...while not mentioning that this was after the ACLU filed a long complaint about policing in Newark, which was followed by a DOJ investigation that found major Booker-era violations.

As with the first Democratic debate last time around, a highly factual debate so far. (I don't check opinion and prediction.) The leading candidates have been almost entirely accurate.
One thing that Buttigieg and O'Rourke tonight, and others before, have gotten a bit wrong - the "12 years to climate disaster" claim. The report used a "12 years" timeline only to align with countries that had set goals for 2030. "12 years" isn't some scientific tipping point.
The IPCC scientists emphasize that climate action needs to happen immediately. But the co-chair of its emissions reduction working group told me they were just trying to be helpful, not alarmist, with the "12 years" thing, but the media and politicians got confused by it.

Trump says he was "just speaking with the Department of Commerce, and we have interest in our country like we've never had before."
Trump says he feels "so sorry for the people of Baltimore." He adds, "If they ask me, we'll get involved." (?)
Trump repeats his now-standard false claims that "our people are not paying for" his tariffs on China and that $16 billion, the amount of his second bailout package to affected farmers, is the most China has ever spent on US agriculture in a year. (It was $30 billion in 2014.)

#Japan vows to axe #SouthKorea from smooth-trade list, as row deepens - Tokyo plans to remove Seoul from a white list of countries that face minimum trade restrictions @9b3OR2qdITMbDcd scmp.com/news/asia/east…
South Korea protested against Japan’s plan to remove it from a list of countries with minimum trade restrictions, saying it undermines their decades-old economic & security cooperation & free trade. Asked Japan to scrap the plan, on concerns of disruptions of global supply chains
Japan’s planned revision of a law to take S Korea off its so-called white list comes amid a deepening row over compensation for wartime forced labour & after Japan tightened curbs this month on exports to South Korea of hi-tech materials used to make memory chips & display panels

@People_Of_Space
Hi everyone! :) I'm Ute (pronounced like “Oohter” with the emphasis on the first syllable. Equivalents are Audrey in English, Aude/Odette in French), and first of all I would like to thank @Taraustralis for the privilege of letting me host “People of Space” this week!
@Taraustralis Another special thank you goes to my direct predecessors, @marmatheghost and @martinesrymd, for their great contributions! Both have inspired some of the things I intend to talk about over the next 7 days.
@Taraustralis @MarmaTheGhost @martinesrymd Tara created @people_of_space so people from all walks of life could talk about their passion to a larger audience. Her intention will in fact also be this week’s motto: “Space is for Everyone”.
Welcome aboard; enjoy the ride! :)

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
