Democratic lawmakers have accused the president of tipping off investors after they say he potentially leaked important data ahead of the monthly jobs report.
Now they're calling on regulators to investigate what they call “a violation of federal guidelines.”
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., announced on Friday that she and two fellow senators, Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Michael Bennet, D-Colo., had sent a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodities Futures Trading Commission concerning what they said were Trump’s “reckless comments on market-moving economic data prior to their public release.”

Hi. I’m President, and reports are released when I say. Thanks, that is all.
He didn’t indicate it was good news. He said he was looking forward to release of the numbers. People read between the lines.
I was thinking I missed something, so I went to Twitter just to double check EXACTLY what POTUS Trump said.
If THIS >>>”Looking forward to seeing the employment numbers at 8:30 this morning”<<< is what they are harping about, the Senate needs a full time Psychiatrist on staff.
Erma Gawd how desperate can they get?
Speech in question is Feb. 5, 2009, 8:28 pm. Eve of Obama’s 1st jobs report as POTUS, in depths of recessionary free fall, as O pushed stimulus bill: http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ws/index.php?pid=85739&st=jobs+report&st1= …
It eas OK for OBama though LOL!
Since lunatic liberals failed at getting an investigation of DJT getting 2 scoops of ice cream, so they are trying this now.
They are too Psychotic to realize that this isn’t turning people against the President, and it isn’t winning over new votes for democrats.
The tweet she refers to says
I’m looking forward to the Jon’s report
Ridiculous
“Tomorrow, we’re expecting another dismal jobs report on top of the 2.6 million jobs that we lost last year,” Obama said during a visit to the Department of Energy on Thursday.

Another investigation? Yeah, right.
George of the Jungle, according to the Skynet. Now I know too!
Depends on scheduling conflicts. ;>)
So Democrats and the Media are engaging in a full court media press to publicize that Donald Trump prematurely leaked information on a fantastic job report?
This is what the media is flooding the airwaves
“ Donald Trump prematurely leaked reports of a fantasticly good job report a day early”
This is what the public hears
“ Donald Trump reports a fantastically good jobs report a day early”
Kind of similar in concept to let the enemy be your quartermaster
Art of the deal, baby
This reeks of desperation..... seriously?
“I am looking forward to the jobs numbers”
Wow. Just wow. I don’t even think this plays to their base...........
