  1. “the jobs report is in the hands of the acting BLS commissioner, Bill Wiatrowski, a career Labor Department official.” – Best part of this entire article.

  2. Is anyone really surprised by these numbers? Trump will blame anyone but himself for this of course. These numbers are not because interest rates are to high. It is because business has no clear understanding of what Trumps end game is. Daily strategy changes in tariffs, firings of critical people who collect economic data, trashing of alliances, and the constant swirl of uncertainty is what is drving business to stop hiring.
