So it looks like the situation is Giuliani was running around the Executive Branch, asking for the federal government to help extort a foreign country and claimed it was at the behest of Trump, which is why everyone did it. But we've seen some change in that narrative recently, most specifically, Giuliani saying he didn't have insurance on Trump after all, that was all just a big joke, hah hah, what a kidder, Biden Biden But Her Emails.
This was taken by some people as a sign that Trump was going to throw Giuliani under the bus.
FOX News agrees.
"Who?"
Steve Hilton, who is definitely in the "Trump or Nothing" camp but isn't as forefront about it as Hannity. Yeah, I had to look him up too. I don't watch FOX News, I prefer facts.
Since Giuliani's guilt is blatant, this move -- we've seen this before, "these corrupt criminals that Trump personally hired are distracting him from being the best bestiest best Trump watch my show!" -- is groundwork for not just removing Giuliani from the equation, but under the guise of something 100% not impeachment related, which is why I have to post
here and not another thread.

In other news, the manufacturing job report is due to --
Brazil and Argentina have been presiding over a massive devaluation of their currencies. which is not good for our farmers. Therefore, effective immediately, I will restore the Tariffs on all Steel & Aluminum that is shipped into the U.S. from those countries.
Oh, look at that, Trump tweeted. Nevermind.
The ISM report really is due today, and it's expected to show a bounce back from the massive UAW strike, but not to reverse the overall decline of the last 12 months. Even if it did, making materials more expensive will just cut it later anyhow. As per usual, if the report shows any short-term benefit, expect Trump to cite it out of context. Re-hiring 36,000 people is not creating 36,000 new jobs. Everyone here knows it, too.
BLS has a bunch of numbers,
including this report, which go back through 2016 at least.
