griff: lucas, thank you. jacqui: president biden is touting a relatively strong jobs report. 457,000 jobs last month. not everyone is feeling the effects as inflation is continuing to run rampant. >> the white house and the biden administration officials were actually expecting a poor report here so this has come as a pleasant surprise even at the white house. the thought is that the survey would reflect mid january's omicron spike when workers were out sick. that's not the case. 467,000 jobs added, 259,000 were in the leisure, hospitality, bar and restaurant sectors, no americans are out and about once again. here is the president. >> america's job machine is going stronger than ever. a strong recovery and opportunity for hard working women and men across this great country. america is back to work. >> while wages climbed 5.7% in
