"Into the world of current defense. The weekend dive. There are approximately 250 ,000 power outages reported across the state. No, he is a certain group of people Operation and cleanup operations continue in the southeast where Hurricane Edalia made landfall in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas. Particularly along Florida's Big Ben, but the community is resilient and we are going to work hard to make sure people get what they need. Edalia came ashore as category a three hurricane in Florida's Big Bend region, an area that is sparsely populated. Fortunately, Governor DeSantis said search and rescue efforts are still underway and crews are actively working to restore electric service. Particularly along Florida's Big Ben, but the community is resilient and we are going to work hard to make sure people get what they need. The head of FEMA administrator, DeAnn Criswell said she traveled to Florida to survey the damage with Governor DeSantis. We are going to process the request for a major disaster declaration as quickly as possible. And we are going to make sure that we always have the resources here from the federal family. President Biden announced his visit to survey the recovery operations during his stop FEMA headquarters on Thursday. I'm here to make clear that our nation has your back and we are not going to. We're not going to walk away. We're not going to give up. We're not going to slow down. It's a sad reality that a shooting that left three people dead rarely makes national news. But this week's shooting at a dollar general store in Jacksonville, Florida, has shocked the conscience of many Americans. The sheriff in Jacksonville, Sheriff T .K. Waters, is calling the gunman's racist manifesto a diary of a mad man. He was just completely irrational. Was it rational? What is his rational thoughts? He knew what he was doing. He was 100 % lucid. The sheriff identified the 21 year male old who shot and killed three black people near a historically black university in what is being called a racially motivated shooting. But the sheriff is not blaming the gun. The story is always about the people are bad. This guy's a bad guy. If I could take my gun off right now, now wait on this counter. Nothing will happen. It'll sit there. But as soon as a wicked person grabs a hold of that handgun and starts shooting people with it, there's a problem. The problem is the individual. Russell Contreras is a justice and race reporter at Axios. He's been looking into a new report that found hate crimes surged in most big cities in 2022, led by Chicago more than any other, increasing than Russell, 84%. do we know why? We don't know. One of the reasons we know that the hate crime numbers have gone up is because police departments have gotten better at reporting hate crimes in cities some like LA. But in general, it's really an uptick, especially in anti -black crimes and anti Asian that crimes have uptick in many of our communities across the country. We don't know why. There are many factors about that. Sometimes it's our political rhetoric. Sometimes it's the growing diversity. But we do know that hate crimes are going up. And we're seeing this in crimes against African Americans, anti -gay crimes, anti Jewish crimes. This is a broad spectrum. Right. In general, most of the cities seeing are upticks in anti -black crimes. But you're right. In cities, it varies across cities. Some of them are seeing a lot of anti Jewish crime, anti -gay crimes. So it runs the gamut. Los Angeles, for example, had a big rise, a jump in anti Latino crimes. It had about 88 crimes last year that were anti Latino. And we did see an uptick in anti Latino crimes last year, about a two percent increase. That was a very small jump from the year before, which we saw about a 40 percent increase. we So are seeing trends of anti black, anti Latino, anti gay crimes that continue every year just growing up. Now, are these specifically crimes of violence? They run away. both They're specifically crimes of violence, but also property crimes. The FBI defines anti crimes as attacking someone based on their race or religion, also attacking their place of residence or a church. Those can be considered hate crimes. So you see the run to give it. But in general, they're really violent crimes. You know, I know a lot of people would say, oh, this is because the Internet has been fostering hate. But this really has been a recent spike. You know, the Internet has been around for over two decades now. But this is something that's much more recent. That's right. Yes. Hate crimes have gone up steadily since 2000. The Internet, of course, was around there. But we're seeing a steady increase, just in general, just double digit increases every year. And a lot of it is really social media. You have to remember social media came at a time when the Internet was still young and social media really can voices magnify that were on the margins and it can be magnified all over the place. And this is not just spreading hate, but also misinformation. That misinformation can be very lethal. That's the that gasoline you can pour on a lot of tensions that lead to hate crimes. I'm just wondering if the data shows that perhaps the people responsible for these crimes are particularly young, say under 85 or can we tell from the data? We don't know, but I did speak to Brian Levin, who's one of the executive director of the center. He pointed out something that was interesting and somewhat disturbing. A lot our of hate crimes, there's a growing number of our hate crimes that are committed by other people of color. So you may see black on Asian, you may see Latino on black crimes. So it's not just a legacy of what we seem to see hate crimes as, say, a white perpetrator against a personal color. This has now infected all of us. And yes, it may be based on white supremacy, but if you look at it, if you look deep into the hate crimes, we're really hitting against each other. And that's a disturbing trend.

"Should go into this meeting. What Europe itself might be willing to concede or not, can see now that's going to shape Biden's negotiation here today. Look, I think first of all when you when you speak about Europe and their position to Russia is very different. When you look at the position from Germany is very different to that of a mineral macron in France, who says we can't ignore Russia? The reality is it's so close to Europe that we need to learn how to work with the Russians. Now when he spoke with the Baltic leaders, and it's interesting that President Biden did take the time to speak with the Polish Authorities with the Lithuanians. He also spoke about Ukraine. They're worried about the physicality. You know, Russia is right next to the border. They worry about Russia moving in the way it did with Crimea. They worry about Russia and massing all of those troops into the eastern border. So that is something where the Europeans cannot concede. You know, that physical border needs to stay the way it is, and they want those troops to back off. From the Eastern border and Europe. Murray today Thank you so much from the shores of Lake Geneva this morning right now, with global strategy off of this moment, and certainly off the Fed moment this afternoon. We're thrilled that Brian Levin could join us. He's with Invesco and their global market strategist, Brian Just a perfect day to speak to you as well. How does Invesco reset it? Mid year? I don't know if we necessarily reset. I mean, I think the reality is it's an economy that's starting to move from recovery into an expansion phase. So from the large story, a better economic backdrop fed that's on hold. It's still an environment that you want to favor stocks over bonds. You want to favor credit over Treasurys. I think to the extent that you reset in an expansion phase is that You start to see more of the growth oriented parts of the market participate again. And so we had this pretty big value move, uh, from the fall of last year, the beginning of this year, and I think that continues in an improving economic backdrop. But you tend to see in the expansion phase your big growth. Stocks also start to perform quite well. Brian what will be a bigger surprise to markets today? If the Fed does not bring forward the rate hike expectations based on the dots? To 2023 or if the Fed does I think a bigger surprise to the market would be if they do bring it forward. I think that we're still going to be talking about a very gradual path of normalization. And so my expectation from the Fed is to focus more on what they're going to do with their asset purchases. I think the the message is going to be we're going to start talking about talking about tapering asset purchases at some point will bring forward at some point We'll move towards where rate expectations are going to be. But the reality is This is a fed that's telegraph this pretty well. And I think so far has done quite a good job, particularly if you look at inflation expectations three and five year out, which are very much near their comfort zone, And so I think the Fed is going to continue on a gradual path. It's a supportive backdrop for markets and invest. Should note. Even these early moves and fed policy tend to not be what ends a cycle. They may create some volatility along the way, but it's really the last rate hikes that matter, and we're a long ways away from that, Brian, where do you see us right now in the economic cycle here in particularly as it sort of dovetails with the positioning that we've seen in equity markets that rotation to cyclicals and now over the past couple of weeks away from cyclicals? Well, it's a critical question, and and I would say that we're still very early in the economic cycle. And it's the reason I say that try and say that forcefully because I hear a lot of questions, Uh, visit ending soon. Is it too? Is there too much access is a to inflationary. Remember we had a disastrous outcome. We're digging out of that outcome. If you look at it from a real GDP perspective, we're getting back to where we were. At the end of 2019. But if you look at past cycles in the United States, you find that cycles have lasted on average around seven years with the 25% cumulative increase in real GDP, so this idea that we're a year in and only just getting back to where we otherwise would have bid suggests it's very early in the cycle. Now that to me favors risk assets until it looks like the economy is going to roll over. The next question is directionally. Where are we? We just had a great recovery phase with all the implications for markets. Now we move into a more expansion phase and an expansion phase. Um, you shouldn't expect interest rates up as much as they were. I think the dollar's still somewhat weaker commodity should continue to do well. Equity should do well within equities again shifting more to growth stocks. I got about eight ways to go here. Brian hate Evan John. For what you're on for 45 minutes today, we need to get John for hours here, but You know, you know, I'm going to go here to see what you just said, which is horse and cart. Is a weak dollar the horse or is a weak dollar. The cart Well, the weak dollar is a is a byproduct of a We're coming out of a very, uh, strong dollar environment. We're now in an environment where growth around the world may be a bit more synchronized than it was in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. There's been a lot of policy support in the United States and the feds telling us that they're going to be on hold. So whether it's a horse or a card. I think what you're asking is does that start to unlock some of the value that exists around the world? And I suspect that it does that? The challenge that investors had investing internationally over the last number years been a strong dollar environment. To the extent that the feds on hold policies relatively accommodative in the rest of the world starts to participate more in this expansion. Then the dollar should be stable to weaker and international markets to perform. Well. Brian Levitt, Thank you so much with Invesco today just really well, time to talk to him on a I really interesting day. I look lease Abramowitz at the library scenes so different than this to me. It's the starkest difference of everything we've seen on this seven day tour of Biden there calmly and Mr Putin there stoically, maybe there to foreign ministers. And the Lafave collection. Okay, Great. But does the calmness of that scene fold over to a columnist of greater global GDP? I don't know. If I can make that leap. It goes to a calmness between the US and its allies. The idea of a return to the past normal sort of back to the future in terms of international relations. That's what this trip has been about that and that has given certainly a certain confidence. That at least policy is a bit more predictable than it used to remain the body language. It's just stunning, and it's like me and John Farrow in a bar. I mean, it's like, you know, really, who's who's sitting with your legs? Is what I want to know. Yeah, look, I mean, there'll be a lot of people, of course, are parsing of seven alive is gonna kill this wonderful. You want to volunteer preview of that? Yeah. I'm going to get your thoughts a little bit later, two or 2 30. We can get the body language of Mr Powell as well. Well, it's going to be interesting. We thank all of you for joining us. We continue.

Anti-Asian hate crimes increased by nearly 150% in 2020
"New report says anti-asian hate crimes in sixteen of america's largest cities increased by nearly one hundred and fifty percent in two thousand twenty compared to the previous year that report by the center for the study of hate and extremism at california state university.

Your center surveyed police departments in several major cities and found an overall increase in anti asian hate crimes in twenty twenty compared to the year. Before what do you see is behind this increase. Thank you so much for. Have me a great question. I think there are things behind it and we've seen this happen again and again. One is a catalytic event or a set of incremental ones that identified a certain group as legitimate targets for aggression. But here's the thing and we've seen this over the last decade or so in particular once we have that dry kindling. How president response to this condition makes a big difference. We saw crime decline after president. Bush tartly of muslims six days after nine eleven but conversely what we saw with the attack on san bernardino a twenty three percent increase above the level of aid crime that we saw from the terror attack with family trump spoke of the muslim ban. Five days later. So i think it's a combination of two things one cadillac event.

Trump says white nationalism is not a rising threat
"More details. Have emerged since the terrorist attack in New Zealand in which Australia national opened fire inside two months during Friday prayers in Christ Church, killing forty nine people and injuring dozens more in his apparent manifesto, the killer made it clear that he carried out the attack in the name of white supremacy and praised Donald Trump as a quote symbol of renewed white identity. And common purpose. Trump did condemn the violence which is supposed to do as president. But he refused to admit what everyone else can see the explosion of far, right? White nationalist extremism at home and abroad. White nationalist rising threat around the world. I don't really I think it's a small group of people that have very very serious problems. I guess if you look at what happened in New Zealand for half sets a case, I don't know enough about it yet. They're just learning about the person and the people, but it's certainly a terrible thing. Terrible thing Trump's bland response to the slaughter of Muslim men women and children in New Zealand early. Reminiscent of his remarks after an outbreak of white nationalist violence here in the US. Very big that group, but you also had people that were very fine. People on both sides to me now to discuss is Malcolm Nance MSNBC contributor, author of the plot to destroy democracy. Dahlia Moga director of research for the institute of social policy and understanding and Brian Levin director of the center for the study of hate and extremism at California State University. Thank you from me here, Malcolm the inability of people to just identify this terrorism because it isn't what we typically identifies terrorism. Why is it so difficult for people to just make that straight on equivalents when it's white nationalism because we have now been conditioned since nine eleven to believe that terrorists only come in one flavor, and that's Muslim extremists from the Middle East where people in the United States who have been radicalized online, and they can only be Muslim. This is a huge fallacy, I trained law enforcement and intelligence all the time in this country. And I constantly warn them the. I people that will go to guns with you are going to be a white extremist militiamen posse Comitatus person in the United States. They are armed. They are motivated, and they have a history that goes back decades in this country. They are a threat that act in New Zealand was a terrorist attack. It was designed to impact an audience beyond the victims and show an ideology as viable, and that is this white supremacist Internationale that appear it doesn't appear it exist fall throughout Europe. And Charlottesville was the coming out party for that type of extremism in the United States. One of the thing that made. This particularly scary is that you have this merger now and a lot of different ways of social media, which which can be used to radicalize people. But also now we're learning to spread the the mayhem. This was live streamed by this Jared. It was livestream because he wanted to also show his added here in. And you know, people who are out there who could be radicalized by this that this is how it's done. It was a message not just to the greater world in general and to put fear into the hearts of the Muslim world, which is what it was about. But it was also really to people were saying this was trolling some of the things that he put out in his manifesto. This was a message to what he calls the greater white community to stop the invasion of the Muslim hordes into what he claims is the white world white Christian. And that's where we have this problem. Social media is a weapon system now, and like ISIS, I've written a whole book about ISIS ideological propaganda. They are using it to put out a platform to bring in new
