Earlier, President 4 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: Trump slapped tariffs and travel bands on Columbia after the 5 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: government refused to allow two planes of deported migrants to 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 1: land on Colombian soil.

By the way, 20 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: the non manufacturing PMI fell to a reading of fifty 21 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: point two.
