187,000 new jobs. america s economic future looks bright. president biden and i will keep fighting to move our nation forward. also ahead, medical breakthrough, the first pill ever approved to treat postpartum depression. we will have more on potential game-changer for new moms coming up. incredible stuff. we begin, a course, once again with the breaking news. trump s team given until monday evening to respond to a doj or request to a protective order hoping to put a stop to trump s threats like this. if you come after me, i m coming after you. this, despite the judges warning not to make threats against those who may come forward with information on the case. i want to bring in jordan reuben. right before the deadline, legal analyst for nbc.com. you notice that the judge, tommy check-in, was the one who denied trump s request to block the release of records to the january six committee. quote, she wrote than that
trying to get back to speed here. government hiring would be pretty aggressive government shutdown me pretty bad for the economy, overall and also another sign that we cannot get our fiscal act together in congress. you have this infighting back and forth between democrats and republicans. that is one of the reasons you have overspending happening, as well. that is one of the reasons. if you look at the overall economy, caleb, i think it is interesting that that doesn t necessarily seem like it is translating, politically, right? we may very well avoid the recession we thought was gonna happen. inflation, as i mention, it s coming down. but, it is not registering with americans across the board when it comes to who should be patted on the back for that. adams bidenomics. biden administration. why do you think that is? i know that the presidential administration always like to take credit for a booming stock market and booming job growth. in fact, this is all part of economic cycle.
