Healthcare jobs coming in at 78,000, that's been a big leader for this number year to
date.
Every month we've seen about 60,000 jobs created by the
healthcare industry and that is an acyclic industry that shouldn't be impacted by tariffs. So that's
a positive and should be a driver of the jobs market going forward. And this from former US
Treasury official Katie Richards on CNBC. The really important risk to the economy we need to
pay attention to is what's going on in Congress. So I think we're absolutely right to look at the jobs report and see the

Trump and Musk and that refutes a report by Politico which says otherwise.
ABC, John Carl Jim got him on the phone.
Trump said he's not interested at this time in talking to Musk.
Musk has a lot of money but I do think the President has the cards.
David, you studied Musk.
A lot of what Musk does is offer a superior product to governments worldwide.
But a superior product doesn't necessarily win if you don't want it to.
You can put your finger on the scale.
It's way at risk here, dealing with a president who is not necessarily, kind of has a very
close relationship with the Justice Department.
And not to mention is quite vindictive when it comes to his enemies certainly or perceived enemies
