President Donald Trump broke an embargo on the closely watched employment report that was published Friday morning, posting data from it on social media about 12 hours before the report was released to the public.

The monthly jobs report is one of the most closely watched sets of data that is released by the federal government and has the ability to move markets. The data has a tight embargo of 8:30 a.m. on the Fridays that it is released, although the president is briefed on the data ahead of it being made public.
