important for us to understand what is happening in these but investigations, both january six and in georgia. thank you lawrence, have a great show. thank you ali. thank you. well tonight the trump team is finally facing subpoenas that they cannot refuse. subpoenas from a criminal grand jury which are enforceable with handcuffs if necessary. with this new round of subpoenas, lindsey graham, has finally found his place in united states senate history. now throughout our history, corruption cases in washington, always get an awful lot of attention. and so it is understandable, that overtime, people come to think of congress and the senate, actual corruption. but, but, the statistical truth is, that far less than 1% of the 1994 senators in our history, have ever faced any kind of legal trouble or legal questions at all. over 99% of them have never come close to being investigated for ethics violations, or violations of law. and it just may be that none of them actually, n
frankly the headline number, matt, is a big one here. also it shows healthy growth in several sectors of the economy. yeah, jim. this is blockbuster growth. and it is pretty remarkable. this number is going to go a long way towards shutting down this idea that the u.s. economy is already in recession. to be adding more than half a million jobs, in a month, at this stage of the recovery, is pretty impressive. let me give you some context around this 528,000 job figure. this is twice as much as the consensus from economists. not only that, but it is 200,000 more than even the most optimistic forecaster had pencilled in. two big milestones that came out of this report, the labor market has now fully recovered all of the jobs lost during covid. total nonfarm payroll is back to february 2020 levels. the unemployment rate is now down to 3.5%. that matches the half century low set before covid. again, none of this suggests an imminent or ongoing recession. but here is the problem,

One here in perkiomen on park avenue at pennypack erode and were hearing that a car brought down a pole. So youve got emergency workers out that trying to fix it. Theyve shut down park avenue so stick to schwenksville road as your alternate n new jersey theyre doing some emergency pothole repairs right on the new jersey turnpike northbound as you use that off ramp to 322. This is exit two on the turnpike. Head to shut town that northbound ramp because of the pothole repair so if youre coming up if salem or youre coming up from delaware stick to 295 instead because youre not going to be able to get off at exit two. Also in camden weve got this problem here. Annie mccormick has been live on the scene talking about a big accident closing the intersection also brought down a pole. Weve got debris on the road. Its on haddon at newton avenue. Avoid the area. Stic
