Fresh "Cabinet" from Bloomberg Daybreak Europe

"Thank you very much for joining us Sam Dager that's great reporting there from Bloomberg's Middle East and Saudi Arabia reporter. Thank you. Now let's turn our attention to the American scholar the statesman Henry Kissinger who has died at his home in Connecticut he was aged 100. I want to bring you more about his life Henry Kissinger this from our reporter Bloomberg's Nathan Hager. Henry Albert Kissinger was born in 1923 in the German state of Bavaria the oldest son of a Jewish school teacher. Kissinger was known as Heinz until he moved with his family to the United States in 1938 to escape persecution. Nazi At the age of 19 while excelling at City College of New York Kissinger was drafted in the army he served as an interpreter in the country of his birth during World War II and after the war he helped round to up Gestapo officers as a member of the 970th Counterintelligence Corps. In an interview with Bloomberg's editor -in -chief John Micklethwaite Kissinger said he saw the first -hand impact of authoritarianism and totalitarianism in his youth. It was an experience which is so elemental that it becomes part of you. Kissinger brought that experience back with him to the United States. He resumed his studies at Harvard University. His doctoral dissertation there focused on balances of power in 19th century Europe. As a tenured professor at Harvard, Kissinger honed the conservative realpolitik worldview that would dominate his thinking on foreign policy for more than a half century. Kissinger also cultivated relationships with policy makers in Washington. That led him to the White House in 1969 as national security advisor to President Richard Nixon. Kissinger's trips secret to China in 1971 paved the way for arguably the greatest foreign policy achievement of the Nixon presidency, his own visit the following year. Knowing of President Nixon's expressed desire to visit the People's Republic of China, Premier Zhou Enlai, on behalf of the government of the People's Republic of China, has extended an invitation to President Nixon to visit China. The opening of China and an anti -ballistic missile treaty hammered out with the Soviet Union achieved what would become known as Kissinger's triangular diplomacy, but his penchant for secrecy would lead to controversy. Kissinger was the first person to serve as both National Security Advisor and Secretary of State at the same time. That allowed Nixon to run foreign policy more or less directly from the White House. The President summed up his attitude in a taped conversation with Kissinger about the Christmas Day bombing in Vietnam in 1972. The Christ Kissinger fed into that paranoia about enemies in the press by ordering wiretaps of reporters and White House aides looking for leaks. That expanded use of surveillance led to Nixon's resignation under the weight of Watergate, but the weight of one major foreign policy decision would cloud Kissinger's legacy for the rest of his long life, the secret war in Cambodia. Kissinger orchestrated the operation that dropped more than 100 ,000 tons of bombs on North Vietnamese positions in the country. It helped lead to the rise of a genocidal Khmer Rouge regime after the war, but Kissinger would never stop defending his conduct in Vietnam, even against critics who labeled him a war criminal. We would see a better way at any one point. We didn't think so. I still don't think so, but I'm open to that argument, but what is meant by better? That pragmatic approach to the world as it is, rather than how policymakers might like it to be, inform would Kissinger's view long after he left public office and sought to wield influence as a private citizen. At the age of 88, Kissinger wrote the book On China about the country he helped to bring back to the world stage In a 2020 interview at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum, Kissinger warned of the risks of confrontation in the world's two biggest economies. Unless said at some paces for some cooperative action, the world will slide into a catastrophe comfortable dual one. Henry Kissinger worked to head off that catastrophe after he reached his 100th birthday. As President Biden sent cabinet secretaries to Beijing in 2023 to stabilize liberalized relations, the one US diplomat that Chinese President Xi Jinping would meet face to face was man the he called an old friend to China, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. I'm Nathan Hager, Bloomberg Radio. Nathan Hager's piece then looking back at the life of Henry Kissinger, of course, let's not forget who won a Nobel Peace Prize in 1973 amongst all of his for work so many decades. So a look at Henry Kissinger's life, Katie. Indeed a very interesting life. And now moving on to US interest rates. Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mesta and Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic made the case for continuing to hold interest rates steady on Wednesday. But a third Richmond Fed Chief Thomas Barkin said he isn't yet convinced. All three are voting members on the FOMC next year. Joining us now to discuss this is our fellow Bloomberg anchor Kriti Gupta. Welcome. Why are Fed's the voters struggling to agree on where rates should be? Because it's a really hard call to make. There's literally no historical precedent whatsoever in this scenario. I bring up historical precedent because if you look at the way the FOMC discussions were going on a year, even 18 months ago, a lot of Jay comparisons. Powell most famously saying, I don't want to make the mistakes of the Volcker era. I don't want to ease too quickly or even stop hiking so quickly. And it was so clear that commodity driven inflation was identical to what you saw in the 70s, arguably even more persistent because it wasn't just commodities linked as well. Now it's a little bit different because it's that coming to that moment that I imagine Paul Volcker himself probably found himself at as well, which is, do you take a minute to breathe right now? And a lot of people are saying, well, just because we're saying don't cut does not mean keep hiking. It just also means holding steady. Whereas some people are saying, look at some of the inflationary stories that you're still seeing a growth of say 4 % hypothetically inflationary growth year over year still isn't a positive number. You still want to get down to 2%. And the problem here that is the roadmap has never been more murky, because not only are they dealing with the economic dynamics, but dealing market with dynamics as well, which are historically far more volatile than I would argue they ever have been because many so people are parked onto the front end of the curb and therefore curb excuse me curb driving wise, but ever curb but also because of that actively changing how much kind of that work the Federal Reserve can actually do because again they're at the whim of the markets in a way that they've never really been before. Hmm, so then how do we think about markets pricing in Fed rate cuts so soon next year? Yeah, well not great and I think I imagine every kind of Federal Reserve official will say it's far too long and for some context here the last time the Fed actually cut rates prior to COVID I should say which of course you had the emergency move down down to about zero interest rates, collapsed the global economy, etc. Prior to that it was an insurance cut off of the Trump tariffs and the kind of the trade war with China. It was idea that okay we don't know what the global circumstances might look like off the trade war therefore just to make sure things are all kind of steady we're going to cut 25 basis points and they actively called it an insurance cut. The problem is they weren't dealing with the same inflation dynamics. It was still very late cycle in 2019. I think the beige book actually is so significant in terms of outlining kind of the issues at play here because the beige course book of does that survey from the 12 districts of the United States by the Fed itself. But if you actually look at what the data suggests at face value and shout out to Cameron Christ our macro man columnist for this analysis I thought was very helpful. Two -thirds of the districts cited conditions ostensibly consistent with a mild recession. That being said, so a lot of gloom and doom. That being said, he also makes the point that all of the Data points since every last reading of the beige book have actually been significantly more positive in the last year. So how reliable is the beige book? Unclear. The one thing he does point out though is that debt costs seem to be kind of seeping into the narrative a little bit more in a way that they haven't before which brings me back to the point of of course the bond market. Yeah just really quickly then why are we seeing everything stocks and bonds rallying? being because if you start to see the yield come down on the prices of these cuts suddenly. I'll just walk you through very quickly. stock The market has a much cheaper rate of borrowing. All of these corporates have a rate of which borrowing then seeps into risk sentiment to commodities and even the FX market. Okay thank you so much Kriti Gupta for joining us there we're out of time but thank you very much. Okay let's dive into the markets then having had that conversation about the fed let's look at immediately what's happening now it's currently 7 23 a .m so stock futures for Europe in the green up by well close to a tenth of one percent S &P 500 even features up to 10. Looking at those markets bond then 10 -year yields the basis of it all 427 up two basis points all prices are rallying pretty big is dollar spot index is softer a tenth of one percent and MSTI Asia Pacific index also gaining half of one percent so you see that continued rally for Asian equity markets and potentially into the European session Katie now let's into one of our exclusive interviews since taking over as the CEO of uni credit three years ago CEO also has seen the group share price more than trouble but arguably the hard part is still to come also exclusively spoke with Bloomberg's Francine Lacroix to discuss rebuilding organization and his plans for its future

A highlight from MARKETS DAILY: Crypto Update | Rising Venture Capital Investment in Crypto

"This episode of Markets Daily is sponsored by CME Group and PayPal. It's Tuesday, November 14th, 2023, and this is Markets Daily from CoinDesk. My name is Noelle Acheson, CoinDesk collaborator and author of the Crypto as Macro Now newsletter on Substat. On today's show, we're talking about new inflows into the crypto ecosystem, inflation, and more. So you don't miss an episode, be sure to follow the podcast on your platform of choice and turn on notifications. And just a reminder, CoinDesk is a news source and does not provide investment advice. Now, a markets roundup. Crypto prices were heading down earlier today, but then we got some good news on the US inflation. I'll talk more about this in a moment. This has turned the mood around, with many assets clawing back some of the day's losses. According to CoinDesk indices, at 9 a .m. Eastern time today, Bitcoin was trading at $36 ,546, down almost 1 % over the past 24 hours, although up 1 .5 % over the past hour alone. Ether was trading down 0 .75 % over the past 24 hours at $2 ,043. Elsewhere, Cosmos, Filecoin, and the Lido DAO token were down 9%. Solana and Polkadot were down 3 .5%. Ripple's XRP token had an interesting day yesterday. A tweet reported that BlackRock had filed for an XRP trust in Delaware. This was taken as a sign that the asset manager was planning to file a proposal for a spot XRP ETF, and the asset jumped 12 % in just a few minutes. The news turned out to be fake, however. I mean, it's very, very unlikely BlackRock would file for an ETF based on asset that not only doesn't have a CME derivatives market, but is still in active securities litigation. Needless to say, the XRP price corrected sharply shortly after, with both moves triggering significant losses in derivatives positions. Earlier today, XRP was still up over the past 24 hours, but only around 1%. In macro indicators, the US inflation data for the month of October is in. And it came in soft, which is very good news. To recap, in September, the headline CP index increased by 3 .7%, and consensus estimates for October pointed to a 3 .3 % increase. That itself would have been good. But the number came in even softer, at 3 .2%. Even more relevant for the US Federal Reserve is the Core CPI index, since this strips out the volatile components of food and energy. In September, Core CPI jumped by 4 .1 % year on year, and expectations were for that rate of increase to hold steady in October. The actual figure came in at 4 .0%, the smallest increase since September 2021. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, shelter accounted for the bulk of the increase in the Core Inflation Index, but much less so than expected. And it seems lower energy prices are also doing their bit. On a monthly basis, Core CPI grew by 0 .2%, less than expected. This brings the three -month average monthly gain down to 0 .3%, lower than last year's average of 0 .5%. The average needs to come down further to give the Fed some breathing room, but it is progress. A US rate hike at the December FOMC meeting was unlikely anyway, given market tension, geopolitical fragility, and the likelihood of a government shutdown starting this weekend. This release now takes that totally off the table. As we head into record, US yields are heading down fast, with the 10 -year Treasury yield plummeting as investors were holding their breath for the inflation report. The good news in the figures has given the market a jolt of energy, with futures pointing to a very strong open. European indices were more positive yesterday, with the FTSE 100 up 0 .9%, the German DAX up 0 .6%, and the Euro Stoxx 600 up 0 .75%. The US figures are extending this trend for the DAX and the as investors digest the UK cabinet reshuffle. In Asia, stocks were cautiously positive today, with both Japan's Nikkei index and China's Shanghai Composite climbing 0 .3 % and the Hang Seng losing almost 0 .2%. In commodities, oil continues to head up, despite a report out this morning from the International Energy Agency that insists global oil markets won't be as tight as expected this quarter. The agency recognizes that demand is growing, as OPEC said yesterday, but non -OPEC supply apparently is growing even more. The market doesn't seem convinced yet, however, and the Brent crude benchmark is up 0 .4 on the day, trading at $83 .67 a barrel. After falling more than 1 % yesterday, gold today is benefiting from a drop in the $DXY index, as US yields digest the good inflation figures. Earlier today, gold was trading up over 0 .5 % at $1 ,956 per ounce. Stay with us. After the break, we're going to talk about new crypto investment.

Fresh update on "cabinet" discussed on The Big Take

"Fed's hiking cycle is over. to Subscribe Bloomberg Daybreak, U S edition on Apple, Spotify and everywhere you get your podcasts. Bloomberg radio contacts changes everything. You're listening to the big tech podcast on Bloomberg radio. I'm Rosalind Mathison. Today we're talking about the latest developments in the war between Israel and Hamas. We're coming on the air right now with breaking news from the Middle East. Hamas has just released 13 Israeli hostages, including two Israeli Americans. They have agreed to a two day extension. This is coming from the Qatari minister of foreign affairs. I'm your host, Rosalind Mathison. Today on the big take Bloomberg's Israel bureau chief, Ethan Ronner and journalist, Fadwa Hodali, join me for an update on the Israel Hamas war, including the temporary Treuze, the release of hostages and prisoners and what the international community thinks about the almost two months on. We were talking earlier about the truce itself and the determination of Israel to continue with the war. Either way, given its goal is to eradicate Hamas and it says its goal is not yet achieved. Ethan, what does it mean that the ceasefire has been extended? What are the ramifications of that extension? Well, baked into the original deal was that after the four day ceasefire, there was a possibility of another day for H10 hostages released. Again, women, children and elderly. And so that has now happened. They've been able to extend it by this period in exchange for these hostages. What does it mean? In theory it means that there's a greater humanitarian aid coming into Gaza, that the likelihood of severe disease and starvation is inclined. And then the question is, what does it mean for Israel's assertion that it's going to continue to come after Hamas in the same way it did before? All along, some military planners have said if you allow a long term truce, long term meaning some days or weeks, then the ability of the military to kind of pick up where it left off is reduced. The desire of the nation to move forward could be reduced. And this poses a threat to your ongoing task. Now, we'll see whether the Israelis, in fact, are able to pick up where they left off. There's the other question of whether abroad the pressure will grow. Inside the United States, there is concern that that aid to Israel, military aid to Israel ought to be conditioned on certain kinds of behavior. This is something that has arisen lately. So all of these things are sort of in play as the extension goes forward. And Fadwa, with the decision to extend the C -SPAR, you talked earlier in the conversation about the breathing space for the people of Gaza. Obviously, either way that the humanitarian situation there remains pretty dire. Yes, it is. The humanitarian situation is really devastating. We have over 1 .7 million people displaced, people without homes, living in tents. Families have been displaced from each other. We are in the wintertime. This is going to put a much more strain onto the people. They're tired of the situation. want They to have some time to go back, relocate to their homes. We've seen footage of people going back in for the last three, four days, living in their destroyed home, taking shelter in there, trying to pick up their belongings. So, before the ceasefire, they can go back and head down south in the shelter places, whether it's in the schools, it's whether in homes of families, whether it's most of them in tents, you see people living in their cars. This is devastating. You'll see lines and lines of people standing to refill water, refill gas, and restock their food. And they don't know if this is going to continue, ceasefire will last. Ethan, it was also interesting hearing you talk earlier about internal the dynamic inside Israel, that there are a lot of questions over Netanyahu and his long -term future after the surprise attack by Hamas inside Israel on October 7. But it sounds as though there is a sense of unity still inside Israel, both the public. Look, there is definitely unity to the plan to take a very tough response line to what happened on the 7th of October and to send a message both to Hamas and Hezbollah, to his sponsors in Iran, that this is a country that is going to stand militarily together and from a security perspective as long as necessary. true. That is That does not mean that people are embracing Benjamin Thatcher as prime minister. There was until the 7th of October nine months of street weekly demonstrations calling for his removal because of issues of populist policies having to do with the Supreme Court and also cases against him of broadened bribery. There was some problem to begin with. Once this happened, after all, Netanyahu had put himself forward as Mr. Security and on the day of the 7th of October there was no sign of any security that was clearly an enormous failure and the buck does stop with him. I So would say that when this war ends, it's very unlikely that he will be able to be prime minister for much longer. All the polls show Benny Gantz, the more centrist member of his war cabinet but at an opposition leader as way out ahead to become the next prime minister. That said, think I we have to remember that what happened on October 7th actually did not drive the country to the center or the left. It drove it to the right to some extent. Abroad people look at what happened on October 7th and say, well desperate people do desperate things. Now it's time for you to finally tackle with your Palestinian issue. Inside Israel, the view of what happened was, listen, we are dealing with an inherently violent group that wants to kill us no matter what happens and therefore we need to be more protective, not less. We need to put our army in weaker and we are not in any way interested in a two -state solution. That is, I would say, the majority view in this country, not the overwhelming but the majority view. So the idea that there'll be a sort of peaceful solution this when is all over is hard to see at this stage in this country. It's interesting you talk about that contrast domestically and internationally and we are seeing increasing countries around the world with their concern around the situation inside Gaza and calling for a more prolonged ceasefire to take effect. But Ethan, you say when the war is over and the idea of what happens next, are we still talking months, possibly years for this war itself, Israel to achieve its goal on Hamas? What's the timeline on that and then what comes after? I don't think it's years, weeks or months seem to make the most sense at this stage just because the pressure to stop the deaths of innocents is going to grow and also the question of, as you say, what next will start to compose itself. So what next? Let's say the war goes for two or three more months. So much depends on whether they have successfully killed a number of top people in Hamas, whether they in the second phase of the war are able to actually uproot the infrastructure. At the time, same you have two million people crowded above ground there. It's hard to imagine how that can happen. One of the reasons

And what is the timer how what how are they determining which you know how old they are and how long it has been before they start deleting accounts? So they're looking at anything that hasn't been accessed or used in any way for two years and specifically again anything that was created and not used so it was extremely kind of obviously an account that nobody's gonna miss too much it doesn't have a lot of memories and it doesn't have a lot of old emails. But over time they're going to start expanding that to to other things things that were used in the past. But they're gonna tell you they're gonna give you text messages if they can they're gonna send you emails to backup email accounts. It shouldn't come as a surprise if this happens to you. And speaking of backing things up what can you do to make sure you don't lose any data down the road? What kind of storage options are out there? I think the here secret and what this reminds us is that you should never just trust all of your data with it. With a for -profit company like that is a not good backup plan. So even if you do use your email accounts you can create backups of them. You can use a tool that Google has that's free it's called Google Takeout and you can create basically a file of all of your old emails.

That's the Washington Post's Heather Kelly speaking with Northwest News Radio's Frank Lindsey. Billionaire Charlie Munger, Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffett's business partner has died. He was 99 years old. We have more from Brian Shook.

A highlight from Joseph Arthur (continued)

"Welcome to The Eric Metaxas Show. Do you like your gravy thick and rich and loaded with creamy mushrooms? If no one was looking, would you chug the whole gravy boat? Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Stay tuned. Here comes Mr. Chug -a -lug himself, Eric Metaxas. Hey folks. Welcome to hour two. I'm talking to Joseph Arthur, singer, songwriter. We're talking about so much. But one of the things that intrigued me was I realized when the Nazis, the thought police shut you down, you were really, and are, you're well known, especially in the music world. You've worked with everybody. Peter Gabriel championed you early on, like 25 plus years ago. I was good friends with Lou Reed. He was my brother. I loved him a lot. And you obviously lived on the Lower East Side. Yeah, we would hang out every day. I mean for a time, not every day of his life. There was a period there. I've been in bands with Jeff Ament from Pearl Jam, like you mentioned Danny Harrison and Ben Harper. Also Peter Buck and I have a band, Arthur Buck. But the thing is, me speaking outside of the narrative, that would frighten most people in the music business. It's so strange because I don't care what other people think to the degree that I could possibly have an emotional reaction from it. It just doesn't strike me that way. So I don't understand that in other people. I could disagree with you, but it wouldn't make me say, okay, I no longer want to go bowling with you because you think something different. You could tell me I love Biden, and I'd be like, okay, I think you're not seeing things clearly. But that would just be my opinion, and who cares? We can still be friends. Seems like you're a big -hearted person, and I think that those of us who would say we're Christians or whatever, we're supposed to be big -hearted and open and understand that there are going to be people that are going to disagree with us, and we're supposed to love them and whatever. But that's what's so interesting to me is that when we're talking about this kind of stuff, how people wanted to cancel you or cancel me or tons of people that I've had on this program, they're just like, we're going to crush that person like a bug. We do not want them to have a voice. So they took this, you know, the air taxi show was on YouTube. We had a huge following, and it was completely wiped out because I had Naomi Wolf on to talk about the vaccine. Love Naomi Wolf. I've had her on my show before, too. She's amazing. And she's been on the show many times. But just the idea that we had a conversation about vaccine mandates, not even the vaccine, but the mandates, and they were like, And you thought, okay, who would do that? Would nice people totally shut down a show because we had a conversation? No. And also, nice people shouldn't hate you for having a different opinion. But this is a media invention, and media keeps doing this and keeps influencing people this way. Like, for instance, if you take something like gender reassignment surgery for kids, say you think that's a bad idea. Like, you don't think 12 -year -olds should have gender reassignment surgery. I personally think that's a bad idea. I don't think kids are ready to make that kind of permanent decision about something like that. Because they're not. At that age, that's my opinion. But then somebody would say, oh, that means you are intolerant of gay and trans people. And that is not true. That's conflating things that are not true. And it's happening now. But what's happening with Israel -Palestine right now, too, the same thing and a different thing. If you think, you know, Israel's response to what they're doing to Gaza right now is not right or not what they should be doing, that means you're pro -Hamas and that you hate Jewish people. And those things don't mean the same thing. You might think, hey, I don't think that's the right way to respond. That doesn't mean you hate Jewish people. I don't think kids should have gender reassignment surgery. It doesn't mean you hate gay people. But that's what the media does. They go, this means this. And then you should hate. It's all very black and white and extreme. There's no room for nuance. In some ways, it's not necessarily even the media. It's social media. Really what you're talking about is a mob mentality. It's a mob mentality without nuance. And I see both sides doing it. It's like, why are you doing that? Like, we are sensitive beings that can think deeply about things. These are complicated situations that require a lot of nuanced conversation. And it's not this black and white thing. Well, OK, you know what I mean? It's crazy. I mean, it's so interesting because in our lifetimes, we haven't seen this. And so suddenly a few years ago, I mean, talking about the election, like, I mean, I just saw clearly, I said, wait a second. This looks fishy. It's fishy to say the least. Even if I'm wrong. Right. You're not going to tell me I can't talk about it. I mean, you can't say it looks fishy. You can't say it looks fishy. Biden got more votes than Obama in his heyday by a lot like that guy. I mean, that looks fishy. You know, I'm sorry if you're like crazy because that looks fishy. I want to tell you, this is this is to me the worst part of it in a way. Right. Right. Is what is it? What this kind of stuff has done is it has made people cynical. In other words. Yeah. There are people who say like, well, yeah, the election was stolen, like whatever. Who cares? And you think, who cares? How emotionally dead are you that you don't care that, you know, the greatest nation in the history of the world that has freedom where every person is supposed to have a voice. It's this beautiful idea. And you don't even care if some people just said, well, not this time that, you know, Trump is Hitler and we're going to do whatever it takes. And you think, well, no, that's that's not really that's up to the American voter to decide. And they said, well, we don't we no longer trust the American voter. We don't care. It's wild. So do you still you still like Trump, right? Do I still like Trump? Should we not talk about that right now? I love Trump. I mean, I think he's he's he's amazing. Does his vaccines stance bug you out? Well, look, just because I would vote for somebody or like somebody doesn't mean I agree with them on everything. And there is zero doubt that on that issue, I would disagree. I don't know where he stands on that now. In other words, because a lot of his base, I think, has given him a ton of pushback so that he's but, you know, he's not the kind of guy to easily say, oh, yeah, I made it wrong. It's a beautiful, beautiful job. Yeah. No, listen, I almost find it funny because he's not he doesn't seem capable of saying like, oh, yeah, I got that wrong. Which he should. Obviously, he should. But no, I mean, I think that I mean, I said this before, but I think, listen, people can can think what they want. But I, I do think it's true that Trump is a very different person than he was in 2016. In other words, the stuff that has happened, he was very naive. He came in like, OK, I was elected president. Now I get to. And it's kind of like when you think of Lincoln. You know, he wanted people that opposed him politically to be in his cabinet because he thought, you know, I want to get along with everybody. So Trump did that. And he invited in naively some people who were running. Yeah, well, thought he's just one of the worst examples, but there's many examples of people that he just said, like, you know, you know, come on in and we can all reason together. And he didn't know that they were not there to reason together. They were there to take him out. And so I think he's been so relentlessly attacked that I think he's kind of awake to this stuff in a way that he was not at all. Let's hope so. Yeah, well, I mean, we'll see. But I mean, that's my that's my sense. But but it's just it's interesting because we were talking about the vaccine, talking about election fraud. Trump is another one of those triggers for people that they can't have a conversation. They just go crazy. Yeah, it's nuts. And I'm not interested in, like, arguing with somebody. Again, it's a media invention. You know, it's it's the media. We're finding out how susceptible humanity is to propaganda in ways that I don't think we could have fathomed. There's a story of like Russian people coming over here and going like, oh, yeah, like your propaganda is so much better in America than in Russia. Yeah. And the guy goes like, oh, well, wait a minute. Russia is famous for propaganda. It's like, yeah, the difference is in Russia. We all know it's propaganda. Wow. Right. And and we got to we got to go to a break. We'll be right back. I'm talking to Joseph Arthur, singer, songwriter, radio host. We'll be right back.

A highlight from Toxic Beauty: Unmasking Hidden Dangers in Our Skincare, Haircare and Beauty Products

"This is the Art Beauty podcast where we are always reaching for truth and beauty. Remember the brands on this show are not paying to be here so we get to have those honest discussions because you deserve to be informed so you can make the best choices for yourself. With that said, I'm Amber and today my fabulous co -host is Christina Marusik. She is an award -winning journalist and author of A New War on Cancer, The Unlikely Heroes, Revolutionizing Prevention. We will be talking all about that a little bit later in the show. But before we get to that, welcome. So happy to have you here, Christina. Hi, thank you so much for having me. I'm excited to be here. Okay, so in case anybody's watching this and not just listening, it is Halloween, my favorite holiday. I got my friend Bones here. And you know, in the spirit of Halloween, and because we're gonna be talking about something that is a little bit spooky, but I hope eye -opening, I thought this was a very appropriate topic for today because we're gonna be talking about some of the dangers that we need to be looking out for in our beauty products, in the products that are probably in our cabinets. I'm a little scared, but I also hope that this is going to be enlightening for everybody. So Christina, you know, you spent a lot of time going and interviewing people, figuring out some of sort of these, the chemicals that might be affecting us. Can you tell us a little bit about what prompted you to write your book? Yeah, I came to this book through a very personal experience. When my younger sister was 25 years old, she was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, and that's very young for a cancer diagnosis. It was really scary and unexpected for her and my whole family. We're very close. I was living far away abroad, teaching English at the time, and when she got her diagnosis, I moved home. I moved in with her to help out while she went through treatment and surgery. All of that went really well. My sister has been in remission for 10 years, and she has two super cute kids. I love being an aunt too, and she lives close by, so now we get to hang out all the time. I know that she was one of the lucky ones and that that story doesn't go that way for everyone, unfortunately, and when she got her diagnosis, her doctors told us that thyroid cancer usually runs in families, but no one else in our family had ever had it. No one has since, and they said in this kind of off -handed way, oh, you know, in that case, maybe there were environmental factors. Maybe she was exposed to something that could have increased her cancer risk, and when we asked follow -up questions, they really didn't know much more. They didn't really have answers for us about what that might have been or if it could have been prevented, and when we went Googling on our own, we also had a really hard time finding more information about that, and I'm also an investigative reporter, as you mentioned, and so I took that question into my work, and I wrote a multi -part series about how the area where we live in Pennsylvania has disproportionately high rates of a handful of cancer types that are strongly linked to pollution, and this region, we live in Pittsburgh, still has problems with industrial air pollution and industrial water contamination, and then that series won a couple of awards, and I got a really nice note from a publisher saying, hey, congrats on your awards. I think this issue is really important. Would you have any interest in turning this into a book with a more national scope? And so the book very naturally followed, and I learned a lot, a lot more than I knew at the time of my sister's diagnosis, for sure.

"Costing us per year and it is an absolutely ridiculous obscene four hundred and fifty one billion dollars let me say that is off by ten percent and it's four hundred billion dollars four hundred billion dollars to pay for illegal immigration now again again because i'm interested in the truth and honesty you shouldn't be here illegally we we did it the right way my family my wife and you should do with two it if you first act in the united states is to flip us the double barrel middle finger and break the law you don't deserve to be here but from a strict economic perspective are these costs real certainly sounds like it the problem is over time people can mean productivity so let's hey this if gets a little complicated i'm not doing it intentionally say it costs us four hundred and fifty one billion a dollars year to process i don't know three million people that are in the country illegally and probably another five five hundred thousand that are got a ways we don't even know about but we're still paying for anyway that that cost would go down each year why because people would start to work not everyone's gonna stay on on government benefits people would eventually i'm not apologizing for illegal immigration so don't please don't send me any nasty grams i'm simply giving you a pure spreadsheet take on it over time it costs less by the time you get to the second generation typically that generation works they go to school they produce it probably cost you a lot less the problem we have with biden and if god forbid this guy gets re -elected or any democrat for that matter is is that this a recurring cost because they're bringing in these millions of people every year you get it never goes away has anybody thought any of this through the cost never goes away 451 billion biden gets re -elected and he has no pressure no pressure whatsoever for reelection obviously be term limited can imagine you how many people are going to come into the country well at least he's not promising and to see if that's a good one you fell for that jim if you would uh queue up for me cut two here is disastrous disgraceful failed human being alejandro mayorkas who literally has one job being the cabinet secretary for the department of homeland here's and security alejandro mayorkas telling bloomberg well you know what i'm not going to you what he says i'm just going to say this listen to the end of this and tell me this guy's not talking about amnesty and i'll call you crazy take a listen it also doesn't address the other sort of elephant in the room which is dealing with undocumented immigrants who are already here in the nation and i know it's been a political football as they're trying to figure out the best way to address that but i'm going to ask ask you what is the best way to address that from your perspective the answer is quite clear and quite straightforward and we've been waiting for it for about thirty years and that is to fix a system that everyone agrees is fundamentally broken and we need congressional action for uh... the lawful pathways that really need to be more robust in statute for the twelve million people who are here in the united states who have been contributing so fundamentally to our country's well -being. They're our neighbors, our friends, our fellow congregants. They provide our front -line workers. We need to do something and I am hopeful and remain hopeful that congress will do it. The president on his first day in office presented congress with a proposal. Do you hear him talking about the twelve million already here? What do you think he's talking about? He's talking about amnesty. Not only are you going to pay four hundred and fifty billion dollars a year for a revolving door of illegal immigrants entering the country illegally, hence the term illegal immigrants, you're also going to have to deal with an amnesty. So think about all the people again. I'm not going to be lectured by any liberal dipstick, so you can just pass or turn off the station right now. You don't know anything about immigration. I went through it with Paula the entire time. Paula's not from the United States. She's from Columbia, not South Carolina. Two O's, Columbia. C -O -L -O, the country. When she was eight or nine, we went through the process legally. Wow, legally? Yeah. Does the process suck? It does. Is it busted up and is it a mess? It is. But a lot of things are broken. It doesn't mean get you to flip them off and just make your own rules. Social Security is broken too. So is Medicaid, Medicare. You got doctors who won't even take Medicaid, Medicare. It's amazing how liberals will defend that stuff and then say, oh, but just ignore that broken immigration. You just come on in. OK, well, just going to ignore Social Security. I'm not going to pay in. Oh, pay in. it We're right taking out of your pocket. What do you mean? Are you broke and sober? What are you talking about? Tell liberals they change their values based on the circumstances. Everything in government's broken. So you immigration process. I don't even like government. And we had to go through the whole thing. I never even told you the story about Paula with the immigration. They what a disaster. We went through the Baltimore Immigration Office. Some lady like accused us of having like a fraudulent marriage. Me and Paula were like, what? What? My wife's funny because Paul like the first. It's a gym. It's actually a funny story. I promise. I would all think folks don't waste your time. But Paula comes over. She's like, I was gonna engage in some fraudulent marriage. I picked some kind of millionaire. Remember, I wasn't on the air. Paula made more money than me when we met. She was an Internet database developer who went on to become a vice president of this big company in Washington DC. Paula didn't need my money. We're looking for like laughing like fraudulent marriage. She would have picked something like Musk. Elon This is how crazy the system is. We had a right to the local congressman. Well, this is insane. This is the dumbest thing we've ever ever seen. All because we went through the legal process and yet you just get to cool 450 billion a year? And then Alejandro Mayorkas is already hinting at a second term amnesty? Man folks, you better get out and vote. No excuses man, no excuses. And I mean that in the actual sense of the word, no excuses. But this fraud, yes, I get it. We've got to overcome it. I don't know what to tell you. We've got to overcome it and then get in power and fix it. We've done it. We cleaned up the system down here in Florida. When DeSantis run a run wheel one reelection by 19 points. Trump went up from like a one point victory four to point a victory over his two election cycles. So don't tell me it can't be done. It done here. Georgia cleaned up their system, too. There's no giving up. There's no quitting. This is not the quitting show. You want to quit, not vote. I'm just warning you right now. This is not your show and that's OK. This is not the quitter show. My grandfather's the greatest greatest man I ever met. He died a hero of mine. He fought in the Battle of the Bulge, landed on Utah Beach in World War Two. Never spoke a word about it was the most humble guy. He didn't leave me this country to around, turn tuck my tail between my legs like a little chump

The death toll from the Israel Hamas war is now over 3100. US officials say at least 27 Americans are among those killed in the conflict that started last week when the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched an attack against Israel. Israel then launched a counterattack against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip. President Biden was in Philadelphia Friday talking about clean energy but took time up front to comment on the war in Israel. The president is not pulling any punches when talking about Hamas. These guys, they make al Qaeda look pure. They're pure evil. They said from the beginning, the United States make no mistake about it stands with Israel. Biden says members of his cabinet are in Israel making sure the US ally has what it needs to defend itself and respond to the attacks. House Republicans are tapping Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan to be their party's nominee for speaker. Jordan was selected during a vote behind closed doors this afternoon. He defeated Georgia Representative Austin Scott, who made a surprise entrance into the race hours earlier to earn the speaker's gavel. However, Jordan will have to get 217 votes on the floor.

"This is Doug Green, and I'm the publisher of TR Publications, and I'm pleased to have with us today Craig Duplessis. I was the vice president of analytics at Call Cabinet. Craig, thank you for joining us today. Thank you for the opportunity, Doug. So, we're going to be talking about conversation analytics and intelligent analytics dashboards. And of course, these are things very close to everybody that reads and listens to TR. It's all about basically making the contact center better, improve information that we're getting from the contact center. So we're going to be diving into that. So let's start from a high -level overview. Can you explain how Call Cabinet's analytics is structured to address clients' business needs and risk requirements? Yeah, sure. Thank you very much. So when we built out our analytics system, what we did is we leveraged off of the existing Call Cabinet platform. Now, Call Cabinet has been providing compliant call recording for a very, very long time, for many, many years. So we've got an absolute goldmine of underlying call recordings that the clients have generated. So what we did is we built the entire analytics system off of the same model with the foundation that is laid out by the current portal. So it's a SaaS -based model providing a full ubiquitous, anywhere, anytime accessibility. It's totally Microsoft Azure native environment, and it's fully scalable in terms of users' volume, in terms of the load as well. We built an auto -scaling, which allows the client to be able to scale up and down based on demand or load. And then economies of scale, obviously that comes in with the Azure side of things. Our speed of deployment is incredibly rapid. Because we SaaS -based model, we can deploy within a few days from activation. So what we've been building it out is to align 100 % with our existing foundation.

"This episode of Markets Daily is sponsored by Kraken. It's Wednesday, September 27th, 2023, and this is Markets Daily from Coindesk. My name is Noelle Acheson, Coindesk collaborator and author of the Crypto's Macro Now newsletter on Substack. On today's show, we're talking about Bitcoin ETFs, crypto market expansion, and more. So you don't miss an episode, be sure to follow the podcast on your platform of choice. And just a reminder, Coindesk is a news source and does not provide investment advice. Bitcoin jumped earlier today after a couple of days of continuing to trade range -bound. And it was up over 1 .6 % over the past 24 hours, trading at $26 ,606. This comes in spite of another delay from the SEC on two of the outstanding Bitcoin spot ETF proposals. More on this in a moment. It also comes in the absence of any clear positive catalysts. We could be seeing the manifestation of a strengthening investor interest. Given the eye -watering climb in the US dollar over the past few months and the spreading acceptance of the Fed's higher -for -longer mantra, it is surprising that Bitcoin hasn't been under more pressure. Its relative resilience suggests steady support. What we're seeing now could be the support picking up. Ether increased by even more than Bitcoin and is trading up roughly 2 .2 % over the past 24 hours, up at $1 ,619. In traditional markets, US stocks are steadying after yesterday's drop, with the S &P 500 and NASDAQ both up almost 0 .2 % and the Dow Jones flat. The markets are uneasy, though. One index to keep an eye on is the VIX, which measures implied stock market volatility derived from options pricing. Yesterday, this reached its highest level since May. In Europe, stocks also seem to be taking a breather. The FTSE 100 is down just over 0 .1%, while the German DAX and the Euro stock 600 are both flat on yesterday's close. In Asia, Japan's Nikkei index rose almost 0 .2 % on the back of reports that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has asked his cabinet to compile a new economic plan to ease the pain of inflation. China's Shanghai Composite also rose 0 .2 % after indications from the country's central bank that it would step up policy adjustments to support the economy. This also boosted the Hang Seng, which was up more than 0 .8%. In commodities, the Brent crude benchmark has resumed its climb. Data out yesterday showed that US crude stockpiles at the key Cushing, Oklahoma storage hub are at their lowest in 14 months. This is understandably keeping traders on edge. This morning, the price once again broke above $94 per barrel. This is an increase of 4 % from the weekly low reached on Tuesday. Brent is now 25%, above its price in June, when Saudi Arabia and Russia announced production cuts. The decline in the gold price continues, down 0 .7 % so far today, and down almost 2 % since the beginning of the week. The price per ounce is currently $1 ,887, the lowest since early March. Stay tuned, after the break, we'll take a look at some moves on the ETF front, and more crypto expansion outside the US.

"This episode of Markets Daily is sponsored by Kraken. It's Wednesday, September 27th, 2023, and this is Markets Daily from Coindesk. My name is Noelle Acheson, Coindesk collaborator and author of the Crypto's Macro Now newsletter on Substack. On today's show, we're talking about Bitcoin ETFs, crypto market expansion, and more. So you don't miss an episode, be sure to follow the podcast on your platform of choice. And just a reminder, Coindesk is a news source and does not provide investment advice. Bitcoin jumped earlier today after a couple of days of continuing to trade range -bound. And it was up over 1 .6 % over the past 24 hours, trading at $26 ,606. This comes in spite of another delay from the SEC on two of the outstanding Bitcoin spot ETF proposals. More on this in a moment. It also comes in the absence of any clear positive catalysts. We could be seeing the manifestation of a strengthening investor interest. Given the eye -watering climb in the US dollar over the past few months and the spreading acceptance of the Fed's higher -for -longer mantra, it is surprising that Bitcoin hasn't been under more pressure. Its relative resilience suggests steady support. What we're seeing now could be the support picking up. Ether increased by even more than Bitcoin and is trading up roughly 2 .2 % over the past 24 hours, up at $1 ,619. In traditional markets, US stocks are steadying after yesterday's drop, with the S &P 500 and NASDAQ both up almost 0 .2 % and the Dow Jones flat. The markets are uneasy, though. One index to keep an eye on is the VIX, which measures implied stock market volatility derived from options pricing. Yesterday, this reached its highest level since May. In Europe, stocks also seem to be taking a breather. The FTSE 100 is down just over 0 .1%, while the German DAX and the Euro stock 600 are both flat on yesterday's close. In Asia, Japan's Nikkei index rose almost 0 .2 % on the back of reports that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has asked his cabinet to compile a new economic plan to ease the pain of inflation. China's Shanghai Composite also rose 0 .2 % after indications from the country's central bank that it would step up policy adjustments to support the economy. This also boosted the Hang Seng, which was up more than 0 .8%. In commodities, the Brent crude benchmark has resumed its climb. Data out yesterday showed that US crude stockpiles at the key Cushing, Oklahoma storage hub are at their lowest in 14 months. This is understandably keeping traders on edge. This morning, the price once again broke above $94 per barrel. This is an increase of 4 % from the weekly low reached on Tuesday. Brent is now 25%, above its price in June, when Saudi Arabia and Russia announced production cuts. The decline in the gold price continues, down 0 .7 % so far today, and down almost 2 % since the beginning of the week. The price per ounce is currently $1 ,887, the lowest since early March. Stay tuned, after the break, we'll take a look at some moves on the ETF front, and more crypto expansion outside the US.

A highlight from Growing Unease: Current Administrations Approach to Security and Travel with David Bellavia

"What do you think they're doing with cash, right? What deal do you make where someone says, I'll bring a box of money to you? Yeah. What do you, it's, this is a state sponsor of terrorism. Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests and my fellow citizens. America's comeback now. starts right Welcome back Financial Guys podcast. Mike Speraza in studio live today with a guest in the studio. I haven't had this in a long time. Staff Sergeant medal of honor recipient David Bellavia joining me for about a half hour today. David, thank you for joining us. Thank you for having me. I appreciate it. Absolutely. So I'm going to stick based on your background. I'm going to stick with a lot of military stuff today and I want to start, we'll go all the way back to the beginning of the Joe Biden presidency. The Afghanistan withdrawal, in my opinion, did not go very smoothly. I'm sure many people listening agree. What were your overall thoughts of that withdrawal and how it actually ended up happening? I know we lost, you know, sadly lost 13 soldiers in that, in that withdrawal. People say we went off the wrong air base. People say that we shouldn't have gone out in the middle of the summer. There was a lot of different things there. What were your overall thoughts on that? I think it's like the worst day in American history since Market Garden. Just absolutely. And the reason why it was so difficult was it was totally unnecessary. So let's rewind to the Obama trade, Bull Bergdahl and the three first round draft picks. They get Marshall, they get MacArthur and they get Patton that end up the resurgence of the Taliban. These men not just go back to the enemy, they go back to the battlefield. They're in power when the government falls. You have misinformation coming from the White House that the president of Afghanistan is leaving with billions of dollars on his plane, which wasn't true. And then you leave the equipment, the cash. There's no recovery. We're getting reports of sales of American equipment left in Afghanistan in Southeast Asia. We're moving material across the globe. Our children will fight and pay and have to atone for these miscalculations. Let's talk about that. You being in the military and you knowing that area too, why did they just find it the easiest way out to just say, you know, just leave that billion dollar billions of dollars of equipment there and not think, again, if it was me and I'm speaking that someone that's never been in the military, but if it's me and I'm the president, I'm thinking, OK, I don't want to leave all our weaponry there. I don't want to lose any of my men. Number two. And number three, I want to make sure that everybody knows when and how we're getting out of there. And it just felt like poof. One day they said we're getting out of here. Well, it's because the military didn't make any of those decisions. I mean, look, Millie, it can criticize him. You can criticize Secretary of Defense worthy of criticism. However, none of these individuals are making decisions. This is about NGOs on the ground. This is about the State Department. So you've got Bagram Air Base, the equivalent of JFK. You've got Karzai International Airport, the equivalent of Teterboro. Right. Why would you ever do an exfil out of Karzai International Airport? It makes absolutely no sense. It's tactically unsound. But and then you've got all the ISIS -K. We retaliate from the murder of 13 of our bravest and we drop a bomb on a guy delivering water. He's on our payroll and we kill children on that. Then we take out Borat on a tuk tuk driving around like that wasn't even really what was happening. It's just a den of lies. And Tony Blinken and Jake Sullivan, all the heroes that brought us, you know, the Bergdahl deal, the Iran nuke deal. This is these. They the State Department is running all foreign policy, including what the DOD used to run. Well, that's I was going to say. I mean, I know Biden's the president, but do you blame him at all or is it everybody underneath him that, you know, maybe was giving him bad information? And again, some of these decisions, David, is Biden even involved in some of these decisions? Like, I don't even know anymore. Is he around? Is he paying attention to anything going on? Well, I mean, just from the press conferences, it was apparent he didn't know what was going on. And the great irony is that they actually were predicting that Ukraine was going to be invaded and, you know, no one believed them. So it's like you can't influence your friends. The allies don't trust you. The enemy doesn't respect you. You know, I mean, you've got Ben Rhodes is really proud of this State Department. Susan Rice loves what they're doing. But, you know, again, Americans died. And, you know, and what is the perfect culmination of the adventure in Afghanistan? Looking at your watch at Dover Air Base when bodies are coming home. I mean, nothing could you couldn't ask for a just it's it's a debacle. Yeah. And it's sad that that's that's the leader of our country there. Let's move in. You brought up the Ukraine there. So the Russia Ukraine conflict will get to Zelensky in a minute. He is as we speak in New York City right now. But so Trump's in office. We don't see many of these conflicts or any conflicts actually started under his watch. And then we have the Biden administration come in. And a year later, we have Russia invading Ukraine. Why did this happen and why? Why the timing of February of 2022? So let's go back to when we were fighting ISIS. Trump engaged and destroyed estimated some say 300 members of Wagner forces. But those were Russian nationals. We engaged. We destroyed them. What was the response from Putin? Nothing at all. So what do people in that section of the world, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, what do they respect? They respect power. They respect authority. You're not going to get any respect if you don't engage the enemy when they present themselves. I don't understand the calculus of again, I'm trying hard to figure it out. I don't get it. I don't. You know, Romania and Hungary and Poland, you're letting them unilaterally decide whether or not they want to send reinforcements into Ukraine. That's an act of war. If NATO members engage the enemy, all of NATO is engaged against the enemy. Poland doesn't unilaterally make that decision. Hungary and Romania don't unilaterally make that decision. We can't even articulate what the mission is. And if you look, go to the Institute for the Study of War, there's a plug for them. Check out their overlay from when the battle started, when the war started with Russia. And tell me what success this offensive in Ukraine has produced. I mean, let me ask this question, because I get confused. The answer is nothing. I asked this on Twitter, X, whatever it's called, all the time. What is the end game and how do we get there? Because all I see the answer is, hey, just blank checks. Hey, just write a check. Hey, here's a billion. Hey, here's 20 billion. Hey, here's another 10 billion. I don't actually see a look. I mean, like anything, right? If I write a business plan of what I want to do in 2024, my goal is X. I write down my steps to get X. I don't just write down X and say it's going to happen. I don't really know. And then the answer always is, well, we have to fight. We have to back Ukraine. Okay. But when does that end? Because the Afghanistan war and the war in Iraq lasted 20 years plus, right? And was there a real end to it? I don't know. That's where it gets frustrating for me, Dave, where I'm like, how do we know what the end game is? Do you win or lose? When does that happen? I don't know. I don't know. At least you're thinking about it. And I have fear that our leaders aren't, and that's the problem. So here's what this comes out. You're going to get a negotiated settlement out of Ukraine, right? But you talked about the billions of dollars that we're spending and giving to Ukraine as a blank check. First of all, Zelensky visited Ukrainian soldiers in the United States. Did you know that there were wounded Ukrainian soldiers in the United States? I did not know that. Well, today he visited them. So what's happening there? So that's a cost that no one is putting on the ledger. So now let's look at the blank check that Ukraine is getting. And by the way, I'm pro Ukraine. I want to fight communists all day and night. So let's punch Putin hard in the face. However, you're giving them a blank check and you're giving them munitions. Now here's the problem. We have to replace those munitions. Those munitions were purchased for 20 year global war and terror. And let's be honest, inflation is involved. So what you purchased for $10 is now $17. So you're not just giving them the money. You're giving them the equipment and the munitions that you have to replace yourself at the value of what is valued today. We haven't scratched the surface for the amount of money. CBO absent at the wheel. No one is tracking this. 2024 can't get here fast enough. How does this work, though, when you talk about some of these NATO nations coming together and making decisions, but us not just giving weaponry, giving everything money, whatever we're giving there? Is that not an act of war, too, though, David, at some point? We're continuing to fund Ukraine continuing the war in Ukraine. I mean, that to me seems like we're backing a war. Well, I mean, by the letter of the law and NATO charter, it's not. But here's the problem. It's schizophrenic because we were told that what was an offensive weapon was going to mitigate, you know, that wasn't going to help peace at all. So we went from, I don't know if they should get tracked vehicles to I'm not sure an artillery piece is what they need to high Mars rockets being launched. And let's be honest. I mean, the Ukrainians are I mean, the payload that they're going through, what you would have to have cataclysmic casualty numbers to be able to to the spandex that they're doing on the ground that they need to replace Patriot. If you're going through thirty five Patriot to, you know, missiles, I would expect to at least the C 20 makes that are shot down. They're using them for air artillery. They're using there for indirect fire. I don't know what they're doing, but this is going to end with Don Boss going to Russia. This is going to end with that land chain that Putin wanted through Crimea. And again, our friends in NATO, what are they even doing for Ukraine? What? Look, if you they said that Trump wanted to kill NATO, Biden did it. Right. Biden did it. And now Germany. And so Putin was selling oil at thirty dollars a barrel. What's it at ninety six? Yeah. He's making more money than he did before. And he's financing a war and killing innocent people. You mentioned before, too, and I think this is a good point. Everybody on the left and I'll say the media, the establishment, whoever you want to say, says that if you don't agree with the war in Ukraine, you're like pro Putin. Right. And that's just the most outrageous thing in the world, because I agree with you. I feel for the people of Ukraine. I don't want this for them. I don't want this for innocent people. However, at some point, the world's every every one of the world's problems can't be America's problem when we have a border crisis. And then I think they said yesterday ten thousand people came across. They got, I think, eight thousand of the ten thousand. But you see the numbers day over day. It's a problem. We have crime that's rampant. We have overdoses that are at record numbers. We have we have suicides at record numbers. At some point, we have to maybe just think about ourselves and not everybody else, because if we fall, sadly, I think the world falls at that point. Amen. The thing that I would add is I love the way the Ukraine refugee has been crowbarred into the migrant crisis in the United States. New York leaders from the city to all over Kathy Hochul, the governor of the state of New York, mentioning that, you know, like the Ukrainians in Poland, the the Polish have no intention to keep Ukrainians forever. That's a temporary you know, they're leaving a conflict to return to their country after the conflict is over. Again, this is just we're we're putting a round peg into a square hole and just hammering it away. But but there's no the media. There's you're our destroying military. I go to parents all the time around this country and ask them to give us their sons and daughters to join the military. And the one thing they bring up is Afghanistan. It's not about anything. It's Afghanistan. How are you going to assure us that you're going to maintain your commitment to our son and daughter when you betrayed us in Afghanistan that has lasting effects? And there's not a I'm trying to find a segment of our of our of our nation that's functioning. I don't know what it is. I saw in Chicago, they're going to have municipally owned grocery stores. Maybe that will figure it out there. Yeah, yeah, it's good. Real quick, do you think and we'll finish up on this topic, but do you think that they will we will ever have boots in the ground on Ukraine? I mean, I hope not, because I just don't know what the I mean, look at I'm I'm we're getting ready for China. We're trying to revolutionize everything. I don't know what the what the plan is. I mean, again, if you want to put a base in Ukraine, and you want to make that a sustainment operation going forward, that I here's the point. I don't understand what the inactive ready reserve call up was for. Why are you bringing those troops in the non combat support? Why are they going to Ukraine? What are you building infrastructure there? Here's what I do know. We're talking a minimum of $11 trillion to build Ukraine back. That is cataclysmic amounts of money. There isn't water, electricity, internet, you know, you want to help Ukraine. You're going to Russia is not paying for that if you negotiate a settlement. So I don't know what the plan is. But I hope we never see boots on the ground. I could guess what the plan is. I won't I won't say for sure. But I could guess that we'll be paying a chunk of that. And I do have one last one. So I did interview Colonel Douglas McGregor a few months back. And he talked about he's a real optimist. But he is really very, very bullish on Ukraine. Yes, very, very optimistic. I'm dropping some all over the place. But he brought up some staggering numbers, though. And even if they're half true, it's a problem. The amount of casualties and wounded soldiers on the Ukrainian side that we're not hearing about the media. I don't know if you agree with some of those numbers or not. But he's saying, I mean, it's people are acting as if this is an even war right now. And it's not even close. First of all, McGregor's a stud. I mean, he's an absolute, you know, that we're glad he's on our side. He's a military mind. I don't know if those numbers are accurate. I could tell you they're juxtaposed to almost everything we're hearing from every institution that we have, including a lot of our intel from Germany and England. But again, I don't know what to believe. So when you don't have when you don't have transparency, when you're not holding regular press conferences, when your Pentagon spokesman is now working in the White House and now you're getting a triple spin. I mean, the U .S. Open double backspin. You've gotten so many spins on the narrative. I don't know what to believe. But if he is even close to what is a segment of truth, you know, then look, Ukraine needs an investigation. There's a lot of investigations. We've got to start on Afghanistan. We were promised that by Speaker McCarthy. We need a hot wash on Afghanistan. And then we need to go to what who is oversighting the money that's going to Ukraine. And what have we got for our return on investment? Yeah, I'm not asking for much. Really, all I'm asking for in this conflict is can we just talk about what the end game is? And to your point, can we get an accounting of where the money's going and what's being spent in a real accounting of it? The Iran deal that just happened last week. First off, the fact that that was negotiated and completed on 11th September to me is just the ultimate slap in the face. But you again, you know more about this than I do. We do a five for five trade. OK, I'm going to use sports analogies. We trade five for five. And then we also approved of six billion dollars that apparently wasn't ours, but it was in a fund that now they can release to Iran. How are we winning on that one? Well, first of all, I was hoping that at least it was a digital transfer. The fact that it went as euros in cash through Qatar. And OK, so what happens the 24 hours after that deal is made? We're now getting issues in the West Bank. We're now hearing about issues in Yemen. We've now got Hezbollah that's reinforced. I mean, look, what do you think they're doing with cash? Right. What deal do you make where someone says, I'll bring a box of money to you? What do you it's this is a state sponsor of terrorism. They haven't changed. By the way, their president is now in New York City addressing the United Nations. This guy's killed 6500 of his own people. He admits to it. He killed the students that revolted and wanted democracy when we did nothing. He killed 5000 of his citizens in 1988. He's killed over 300 Americans. There's no accountability whatsoever. I don't understand what it is about Jake Sullivan and Tony Blinken that believe that Iran is a partner. All you've done 10 years ago, they were refining 10 percent of their oil. And now they're a force. Now they're working with Maduro in Venezuela, and they're a huge part of their members of of the international community. They're in good standing there. I don't get it. Does anyone believe that the Iran nuke deal? Look, we got hit with cruise missiles under Trump in Iraq. How did they have those cruise missiles? Those cruise missiles were illegal under the Obama nuke deal. So how are you refurbishing missiles in two years? Do we believe that their centrifuges have stopped? That they won't have a program if they don't have one already? No, I mean, I guess my question, David, is how I mean, I know that you pay a lot of attention to this stuff, but how do people like in the media not ask these questions? Right. I mean, these are legitimate. I mean, we just traded to I put this on my notes here. This is on the heels of trading a WNBA basketball player for the Merchant of Death like six months ago. Right. I mean, and again, I'm glad Americans are coming back to America. I don't want to sound pessimistic on that. That's great news. But we also I mean, this this stuff just seems like I don't care what side of the aisle you're on. It warrants questions, but nobody seems to care. I'm in the world that if you take hostages, we take hostages. You want to exchange people? We'll exchange people. You know, we definitely have the partners in the area to do that. For whatever reason, this administration, they're they're they're contrarians. They're contrarians to you know, they claim Bush and Cheney are their best friends, yet they just go 180 degrees from that doctrine. I don't know what the Biden doctrine is. I don't know what Bidenonomics is either, but I could tell you that they believe that Iran is a partner. Now, here's another thing. Our envoy to Iran not only is no longer the envoy, he doesn't have a security clearance. Does anyone curious at The New York Times as to what happened to the lead negotiator in Iran that is escorted off a bus, taken into American custody, given a job at Yale or Princeton or wherever he's working now? I've never heard of a person going from top secret classified negotiations to no clearance whatsoever and in the custody of American intelligence community. No one cares. No one cares at all. It's fascinating. And again, for me, I mean, these are big decisions that we're making. And correct me if I'm wrong, but it used to be, you know, maybe we did a two for five deal and then we made the six billion. Now we're like, we're giving stuff away and we're on the losing end. Correct me if I'm wrong, but America was never, you know, America losing. It was always America winning, right? America getting the best of deals. At least McDonald's has a five for five. We didn't even get that. You know what this does though? Honest to God, if you're thinking about traveling overseas, things go sideways, cartel, South America, Mexico, wherever you're going, you have a price in your head now. No one in their right mind is going to bring you back whether it's Haiti or wherever you are, you're worth $1 .25 billion. And thugs and scumbags are going to take advantage of that. I mean, that's a great point too. Do you think about leaving the country? I don't know anymore. That's a little bit concerning. I don't care where you're going, right? That's concerning. This one I just had to bring up because it happened two days ago or yesterday. How do we lose a plane? And I heard that's like a third one in the last six weeks that something like this has happened. How are we losing $80 million planes? Well, they're not $80 million anymore because they've got a new engine and all this other stuff. Look, the F -35 program is a complete disaster. You want to talk about why our allies think we're crazy. We sold them a plane. This program has been around since the early 90s and we've got nothing on return for it. So basically two planes are flying in a buddy team. They're doing training and a guy punches out. We don't even know why he punched out, but that plane could have easily hit a building. It didn't, thank God. But the wingman didn't follow where his buddy went. So what is he doing? He just kind of went on and did his own thing. And now the Marine Corps put a Facebook post like a dog is missing. We're expecting the Ukrainian farmers to carry the F -35 out with their tractors. I don't know what the point of it's wild. Look, stop embarrassing us. Just stop humiliating us. That's all I'm asking. Just be the army and the Marine Corps that we know our men and women are capable of being. Get out of their way. This gender garbage, this social experiment nonsense, stop humiliating our military. That's all I ask. Why can we not get the... I mean, I know why we can't get the answer, but I'm asking this to you. But why can't we, at a press conference at the White House, why can't we say, I want to talk to the guy that was in the other plane, or you can tell us the transcript of what happened when that happened. Talk to the guy who jumped out of the plane. Why did you do that? And again, I'm not trying to put our military on the spot, but these are kind of big questions to ask, right? I mean, if I do something in my business, I have to go face the music on that. Why doesn't everybody have to face music for their decisions or why things are happening? I think it's kind of important. Well, you don't want to talk to generals because they're going to tell you the truth and they won't be generals anymore. True. And you don't want to talk to enlisted people. Because look, I mean, let's be honest. How many people are... Is this a merit -based military anymore? Do we have a meritocracy? Are we promoting people based on pronouns? Go figure. When we're putting politics above military strength, accidents happen. We don't know the facts, but the fact that nobody cares about getting to the bottom of it, the day of the Pentagon paper reporters are gone. Yep. Yep. Let's just talk about the 2024 race quick, and then we will wrap up for today. So your thoughts on the Republican primary so far, I'll stay away from the Democratic side till the very end, but your thoughts on, you know, there's obviously Trump who is now in a, has a huge lead. Ron DeSantis seems to be crumbling underneath himself. Vivek Ramaswamy has jumped up in the polls. Nikki Haley's there. Tim Scott's there. A few others that probably aren't going to get a lot of votes. Chris Christie's the anti -Trump candidate. Mike Pence is, I don't know what Mike Pence is. I'm not really sure. Your thoughts about the whole field so far? I mean, look, it's impressive. They've got a deep bench. There's a lot of diversity. I, you know, none of it matters. Trump is the guy. The more you indict him, the more you empower him. You know, I'd like him to work on his communications a little bit better. You know, but if Trump is Trump, Trump is a Frankenstein monster of Barack Obama. As long as you have that faction, you're going to get, you know, Trump is going to be empowered. I just don't want to see Governor Noem anywhere near the White House. And I, if he's going to pick a running mate, you know, it's hard to find an ally here, you know. But it would be nice to find a governor. I don't want to take anyone from the Senate. I don't want to take anyone from the House with the margins that tight. But I mean, the idea that Governor Noem is being floated right now. I mean, I'd rather take North Dakota. Yeah. A little sled there. You know, it's funny you mentioned that because I saw a lot of that this weekend. I mean, can we just, for lack of a better term, keep it in our pants for about a year and then do what you got to do? It really is. I mean, every time you turn, somebody's doing something idiotic, whether it's Boebert. And again, I say this, David, a lot of people know who you are. A lot more know who you are than they'll ever know who I am. But when you go out in public into a movie theater like that, and I'm going to Boebert, not Noem for a second, you're, you're extremely well known. I don't care if it's dark or if it's as light as it is in the studio right now. What are you thinking? I, you know, she's, she's, she's an embarrassment. She is. She's bad, too. Who would have thought that Marjorie Taylor Greene would have been the, the oasis of the Maryland? I mean, seriously, I, again, you're, you're in Congress every day. You're out in public, you're on the job. You know, at least she wasn't wearing a hoodie, you know, that's all in shorts. She was at least dressed for the occasion, but I, it was, it's wildly embarrassing. Vaping, singing, whatever you're doing. Getting groped. Yes. Who is your VP candidate then? Because I think, you know, you have names thrown around. There's, there's, the vague has been thrown around in there. You know, Byron Donald's has been thrown around in there. Carrie Lake has. I don't know. I love Carrie Lake. I just don't know that Trump needs to go with somebody so divisive there. I think he's got to go with somebody that's, that's firm in their beliefs, but also not maybe going to turn off half the country. Well, you know, it's, it's impossible. One of the, one of the problems with making Trump, you know, the, the enemy of the state that the left has done is that you've really made it difficult for him to even put a cabinet together. You know, I mean, what are you going to do with it? You've got a lot of loyalists out there. You know, the vague is, is I think maybe the most intelligent dynamic candidate we've ever seen run for president, but experience does matter. But you know, I love the way he thinks. I love the movement. I don't know if he would even take the job to be honest with it. I don't think he needs it. But you look at a Tim Scott, I think Tim Scott is, you know, there's a whole lot to his message and I think he's, he's got the experience in the Senate, but honestly, you could literally take the Clint Eastwood chair and, and throw it in there as vice president. I'm going with that because this, this from top to bottom, we have to have seismic change in 24. Do you think he would ever choose Kristi Noem at this point with all that now? Yeah, no one knew Mike Pence was a, was a 24 hour story and then he was the vice president candidate. So who knows? I mean, a lot can happen between now and then, but I just, I don't need, you know, let's just pick people on their merit. Let's pick people that are ready to be the president. Imagine this, imagine picking a vice president that can lead the country. If something happens to a 75 year old president, you know, like Kamala Harris. Yeah. Someone like that.

First Aid Kit (MM #4565)

"You don't think about a first aid kit until you need one. Couldn't tell you the last time I needed a first aid kit. Sure, around the house we have a small first aid kit with bandages, but I know where everything is in the house, so I'm not too worried about it. Other day at work, I ran into a coat hook, I guess you'd say. Put a nice little gash just below my elbow on my forearm. It's about three, four inches long, and it hurt, so I'm like, wow, man, I ought to put something on it. I don't need a Band -Aid per se, plus I got arm hair there, so what am I going to do? I'll go find the office first aid kit. Now, it's the first time I'd ever had to encounter the first aid kit at work, so I went into the cabinet and found it and found lots of aspirin, lots of Rolaids or Tums or whatever antacids were in there, hundreds of bandages, some gauze, but nothing like Neosporin, nothing like Basatracin, nothing to put on the cut. It's not something you ever think about until the first time. Now, I probably won't scratch myself or hurt myself or cut myself again for another six, eight years, but every now and again, when you need a first aid kit, you got to be prepared. They weren't prepared for me. I wasn't prepared for them, and, well, I'm paying the price. It still hurts, by the way.

Here's some weirdness. You ready? She died in a flat in London, where four years later in the same bedroom, also passing away at that location, drummer Keef Moon of The Who. What? Are you serious? I am quite serious. That's dead serious. Hey, let me rip the curtain back. I want to rip the curtain back because I alluded to something that happened yesterday. We had a great, passionate debate about Trump's comments on abortion, which continue to be riveting. It's a fascinating issue on so many levels. It's the best. I want to talk about what Politico says about it today, how Biden world is fearing that Trump is muddying the waters on abortion with his answer to Kristen Welker. I want to get into all that with you and pick your intelligent brain on this. But I want to share with you. Listen, you and I are all about transparency. And let's just lay it all out here. I'm going to get real real with you for a minute. Real, not just real, real real. I'm going to get real, real, real, real, real. I love this segment. I love this segment. This segment sets the day for me. We do this segment on your show and then I replay it on my show. And so to much of the national audience, even though you're obviously a very familiar face nationally. They don't know who I am. No, sure they do. All the years you go in for a rush. Mike burdens us with every day. Well, but yesterday was a notable day in the amount of complaints we got over something you and I have discussed before. Us talking over each other. And I get this complaint a lot. And I got a lot, a lot of it yesterday. I think it's because we were both passionate. And when we're passionate, we both talk. We tend to, and I really want us to both work on it because people love what you have to say. I think people appreciate what I have to say. But sometimes, I mean, I think I got to remind myself to do it like a TV hit. Like on TV hits, we don't talk over each other. When you're a guest on channel five or you're on channel four there in Dallas and I see you all the time on TV, you're not jumping over the host and I'm not jumping. It's a different dynamic because this is your show. And then when I play it back, it's on my show. We're just so comfortable. It's our domain. I'm gonna give special dispensation for yesterday. Because first of all, you're right. We are a couple of big blabber mounts and we're used to going off on long diatribes. Yesterday, because I heard yesterday back and it was glorious, for those that don't know, I suggested that Donald Trump's seeming comfort with 15 weeks means he's not really pro -life anymore. And Mike, while not technically disagreeing, wondered if I might not be doing damage to the cause by pointing that out. So there was the thing. I think it was masterful. I think it was great. Now the problem is when you and I step all over each other, when you're talking about what it's like to fly coach to London or something like that because we're just so into each other and so on. So, but you are right. You are right and I pledge to lay back a little bit. Just a little bit because, and listen, it's all on me too. I mean, we get, this is such a pivotal issue and I wanna revisit it with you here for just a moment and because this could be a turning point for the Trump campaign and I'll tell you why, but let's both work on that a little bit and to the many, many people who sent emails of complaint yesterday. We hear you. We hear you, we hear you, we get it. We're just a couple of passionate guys and we happen to have deep affection for one another and we are very comfortable. We talk as much, I think, sometimes off the air as much as we do on the air and I treasure our friendship. So let's, but I wanna work on it because I think you're right. And by the way, I haven't even gotten to what might be dry socket on my wisdom tooth. So don't anybody panic for me. Oh no. Oh yeah. I don't even know what that is. I've heard the term, but what is that? It's like when you have your wisdom tooth removed and then something doesn't heal right and you have a painful process. All right, it's four days now. Shouldn't the swelling and the pain subside? Let me apologize for this to the audience. I had to ask. I know. Well, hey, you wanna know about my medical problems? I'll tell you. I did, I did. I don't suffer in silence. I do not suffer in silence. So anyway, so I don't know. I'm taking antibiotics. I found some old antibiotics in the medicine cabinet. I know, I know. Did you check the date? I mean, what, do antibiotics turn to poison or does it not? Or I think they just turned to emptiness, don't they? I feel like I got an eyeball growing out of my forehead, but other than that, it's okay. What was an expired medicine for you? What's the medicine? Well, it's not that old. But it's like Dosey Mikelin or something. And I looked it up and it said, you can use it for infected wisdom teeth. So I'm gonna try it, but I don't know. I just think it should be getting better by now. I'm not getting the four days. Anyway, this is a pivotal issue and I'll tell you why. This is such a heartfelt issue. And the reason I was not entirely comfortable even with disagreeing with you yesterday is because I have such respect for everybody who's on the pro -life side of the equation here. Gavin Newsom yesterday went on an abortion tirade. And again, these Democrats will not ever acknowledge any restriction whatsoever on abortion. They can't do it, Mark.

"The Mason Minute with Kevin Mason Growing up a kid of the 60s and 70s, my mornings were spent with a big bowl of cereal. Now, some of the lucky kids, they got the frosted stuff, the frosted flakes, the Frootloops, the Apple Jacks. I didn't get sugar -coated cereals, but I ended up loving Grape Nuts and Wheat Chex and Rice Chex and Corn Chex and Puffed Wheat and had no problem with Wheaties or Cheerios. Well, it looks like the end is near for breakfast cereal. Breakfast cereal has been declining in sales since the 1990s. Today's family is more on the go in the mornings, so things like granola bars, they're more in. Kellogg's is spinning off their cereal division into a separate company. I'm going to try to sell it. I can't even imagine life without cereal. My wife has some kind of Cheerios in the cabinet right now. She enjoys breakfast cereal every now and again. I don't eat it as much as I would like to. My problem is, I really like to eat it. It's kind of weird to be nostalgic about breakfast cereal, but you never think it's not going to be here. Because literally, every morning growing up as a kid, a big bowl of cereal in front of the TV. I know the world changes, but it's still very shocking to me.

"A cabinet reshuffle along the way in Ireland in December, it doesn't at this stage look likely that you will stay in your current job. Are you running for a second term as Euro group president? And are you campaigning with your European colleagues to keep that job? Well, I only delivered a budget for Ireland. Yesterday afternoon, less than 24 hours ago. And my future and jobs that I do is very much secondary to the future of the economy here in Ireland, the future of the Euro area and how we have the right policies in place and I just want my focus is at the moment. The role that I do is the matter for the party leaders and they are determined if a good time a little later in the year. We were just talking there about the weakness in the Euro. We heard from Brian deese over in Washington national economic council director, he suggests there's not really any thinking around another Plaza record coordinated action to bring down the value of the dollar. Is there any appetite to have those conversations in Europe is the weakness in the Euro vat concerning to you? It's something that we're monitoring, but I believe the more appropriate area of macroeconomic policy coordination, which has been firmly underway since we had to deal with the impact of COVID and our economies is how we try to have common fiscal approaches to the challenges that the key currency areas are facing and what we are doing within the Euro area is trying to have fiscal policy not contradict and to be coordinated with the monetary policy changes that are underway. That is what we are doing at the moment. It's very complex. It's not always easy, but that is the approach of the Euro area on the G 7 group. Excellently chaired by our colleagues in Germany at the moment. It's a really valuable forum for how we can share our efforts to deliver that common approach.

"Have delivered and historic result and sent a shockwave through British politics. The people of tiverton and Holton have spoken for Britain. They've set a loud and clear message. It's time for Boris Johnson to go. That's Richard for the new lib dem MP for tiverton and hannigan speaking there in a separate election, Johnson's party was beaten by labor in the north of the country, raising fresh questions about the prime minister's popularity. Yeah, so by Johnson, a double by election defeat, let's bring in our guests this our Tim Montgomery, who is the founder of conservative home, and also a former adviser to boys still to Tim welcome to the program. Thank you so much for being with us. It really does look like resounding losses for conservatives. Why do you think it happened? I think that is the most interesting question, really, because we've already begun to see Tories spokesman go out there and say, well, governments always lose by elections in the middle of parliament. And this is just another case of that. I think the big difference and it's a huge difference is most governments lose by elections in midterm because they began the parliaments taking really difficult decisions. Reforming housing, taking on vested interest into flying the tax system. Whatever it might be. This government hasn't really done those difficult things and yet it's still unpopular. Why is it unpopular? It's unpopular because Boris Johnson is really not liked by a huge section of the election on the doorstep. And I say that as a former adviser to him, I'd say it with no pleasure. And that's why it's not an average midterm election problem. It's a problem focused on the personality of the prime minister and ethical questions that now surround him. So how does the Conservative Party then deal with that if Boris Johnson has gone from being an asset to a liability? Well, he won the votes of confidence that took place a couple of weeks ago. He didn't win it well. And I think perhaps a different perhaps more honorable prime minister noting how widespread the opposition to was in his own party might have resigned. He didn't. That was the first thing that belonged to them. But then he did sort of basically say, I want all fine. And there weren't there hasn't been the reach out to the disaffected MPs. There hasn't been a sense. I've got to change direction. I'm going to learn from what you're telling me. And that is why I think a lot of Tory MPs won't like to see the defeat of in these places in Britain, red wall and blue wall. But I think they will perhaps hope that finally it might produce a wake-up call for the prime minister. I'm interested that you say there's not been that reach out because it seems all we've had in the last couple of weeks are a slew of policies announcements attempts, fresh ideas, at least that's the way that things have been portrayed by the Conservative Party, but you say there hasn't been a deep rethink. So will this election defeat, you know, make that rethink happen? I'm afraid I have very little faith that Boris Johnson can use the time that has been given to him by him surviving the no confidence that rethink. And that's probably why I think perhaps even more significant than the pi election results. The really significant news this morning might be Oliver dowden's resignation. Perhaps a lot of your listeners won't be familiar with him, but the cabinet at the moment has stayed absolutely solid to the prime minister in public. They certainly haven't been in private. But now finally, we have a cabinet minister who declares his loyalty to the Conservative Party, but not to the prime minister. I think as Jeffrey Howe wants famously said, when he basically precipitated Margaret Thatcher's surmise, it's now for other cabinet ministers to decide how they respond to this situation. And if there are now a few dominoes that start to fall, we could be in a very, very interesting situation. And finally, the country might get a prime minister deserves. With the language saying that we can not carry on with business as usual and Oliver Davis resignation letter who will take that job now. Given the situation that you've outlined. Well, of course, the one thing the primitives are broad at the moment and he hasn't wanted to avoid a cabinet reshuffle. And so one of the immediate questions for him will be does he do a very limited reshuffle and find someone perhaps from the junior ranks to replace Oliver down or does he take this opportunity to reshape his government to bring in some of the big talents in the party that up until now he's excluded. But when you're on the other side of the world, just you can do a reshuffle, but if it starts to go wrong, people with this move. So I think you will probably do a limited reshuffle and wait for that and restructure as government to a later debt, but events may spin out of control if Oliver dowden isn't the only cabinet minister to finally found the courage of their convictions and say this can not carry on. Okay, just on a technical point though, how, if Boris Johnson is on the way out, how does he go? Does the Tory party change the rules around the 1922 committee in order for there to be another confidence vote? What happens? Well, I think if there were significant number of cabinet ministerial resignations or one or two senior instances left, perhaps Boris will finally the game was up. But Theresa May, the last considered prime minister. She resigned that the story is that she only resigned when Graham Brady, the chairman of the 1922 committee, went to her and said, in my pocket, is a letter. If you do not resign, it will be signed by the fellow committee members Google's changed the rules, which is within their right to do, there will be a vote of no confidence in you tomorrow and you will lose and that Pacific state deter resignation. So the party is a very flexible beast. Do flex sometimes, but if it wants to get rid of the prime minister, it will certainly find a way to do so. Okay, Tim Montgomery founder of conservative home and for their former adviser to Boris Johnson, thank you very much for joining us on Bloomberg radio, Caroline interesting, of course, this news all come far too late for the fun page of today's papers, but you look through the front pages of the websites of some of Britain's newspapers. We are seeing interesting there's a piece of Nigel Farage in the telegraph saying the Tories have been utterly humiliated and if Boris Johnson stays, they are doomed. That's in the telegraph today from Nigel Farage course former ukip leader and not a fan of Boris Johnson. That's to be expected, but I do think that Tim Montgomery's view that just a little over two weeks since the confidence vote in the prime minister that he did manage to scrape through and win. There is still so much hanging over the prime minister that perhaps this is another very, very decisive moment.

"Is glad to be discounted from leadership speculation following some of the revelations about his private life in recent months and is slightly relishing the fact that he is not on the list of contenders being touted by most newspapers So no I don't think it was a leadership pitch at all It was a serious policy speech about the future of the economy And for what it's worth I do think a capital reshuffle could be a good idea for this government Not to shore up the prime minister's authority but actually to broaden the base in the cabinet because at the moment the cabinet is relatively narrow in terms of its kind of favored nature of conservatism And if you could bring in talented people especially from younger generations from across the party I think that would be a sign of strength and prime minister to bolster his whole team and show unity the type of unity was spoken out after the vote yesterday Are there names you have in mind when you think of those figures So I don't want to get into specific people but there are clearly hugely talented people on the back ventures from all wings of the Conservative Party Many of whom have not had the chance to show their strengths in cabinet and if you look at the 2017 and 2019 intakes they also represent different types of constituency different types of place to shift to the red rule in 2019 especially And while some of those may not be capital administers we should certainly be seeing some of those new MPs on the junior ministerial ranks demonstrating their value to countries government So that was will Tanner the director of the onward think tank former adviser to Theresa May speaking to myself and you and parts on Bloomberg Westminster yesterday Interesting to hear this idea of how the politics might overshadow the policy he did reference this idea that housing policy is very on brand I suppose to try and win over Tories in certain parts of the country to have colds on that too Well it's a return to kind of Thatcher era politics isn't it This is when the right to buy Legislation dates back to 1980 so Boston's expected today to talk about reforming the housing market and widening effectively the right to buy that people have from housing associations So including people who would rent That is actually millions of voters in the UK so it is a big policy What do you then do about depleting social housing That's another huge issue We also had the Rick's data out this morning I mean the housing market has been absolutely sort of red hot although inquiries now for new properties do seem to be cooling just a little bit And you wonder how much of I was playing into higher borrowing costs as well because those people you know mortgage interest rates are going up There was this rush people try and get their mortgages before the rights at the rate hikes from the Bank of England kicked in and that was going to create a certain amount of tension in the market when you're looking at a position where if you're going to be paying more for your mortgage over a long period of time you're going to want to try and you'll pay the extra 2030 50 grand whatever it is to try and because over the lifetime of your mortgage the argument is that people are saying if they're paying last month to month they feel more comfortable going higher on how much they're paying for property Yeah absolutely And also having said that we did a piece of work yesterday showing that actually rising interest rates are going to affect Brits more than they are counterparts in Europe which I think is quite an interesting point And Philip Aldrich has a very interesting piece out on the Bloomberg terminal this morning We know inflation is at a 40 year high in the UK right now of 9% But he has done some research in looking at whether we are at peak inflation in the UK and he actually says no some of the commodity price indicators that might be pointing us towards a cooling of inflation elsewhere in the world are not as applicable here in the UK so he talks about you could get food and household energy prices soaring just in time for Christmas when energy demand peaks and we've got another big price wise for energy in the autumn when the energy cop goes up again and of course there's no sign that the underlying issues around energy costs are going anywhere I mean look at the fuel price story that's in the front page of all the newspapers today we're talking about oil prices again I mean brand crude now at a $124 a barrel This is things that people are going to be feeling very keenly and at a portion of their income particularly for lower income households that's a big chunk out of your monthly earnings every month if you're spending a hundred pounds to fill up a car now Yeah it's staggering It's a hundred credits There's no joking matter And of course the OECD's chief economists were speaking to Bloomberg on this issue of the difficulties for the UK economy versus other G 7 countries will have more on that a little bit later on on the program bluebirds Lizzie burden our economy reportable join us too Yes but coming up next on daybreak Europe will there be hints of a nifty 50 from Christine Lagarde will be looking ahead to today's ECB decision with Simon French.

"Robert. The offer was clear. Ford should by his invention and bring it into the company together. They could make ford car safer for every driver and when ford called him back. It seemed like his american dream was coming true but the second meeting didn't go quite the way he expected when he arrived they showed him their own version of the intermittent wiper inspired by his own creation. Of course they didn't have the benefit of roberts ten years of work so they showered him with questions and he answered all of them. Show us how it works. They asked him and will buy it as their conversations continued over time. It seemed like robert was on the team but then the line went dead. When ford finally rolled out cars with intermittent wipers in nineteen sixty nine robert than his invention weren't even mentioned and once it was on the market. The invention spread how far while the idea was so good that eventually robertson son. Dennis brought home the controls for a new system being used in mercedes cars when robert cracked open he realized it was also a copy of his design. It was a massive blow and for years. Robert struggled to come to terms with his. Life's work being swiped by the biggest automakers on the planet but robert was a fighter. Fortunately he had filed for a patent back in one thousand nine hundred sixty four and when it came through in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven gave him what he needed to take the fight to big companies that were scooping up cash from his contribution. It wasn't easy though. In fact the battle was hard enough that roberts family suffered. He poured everything he had into the struggle. Not just for the money but for his work to be acknowledged and never major losses. Along the way robert represented himself when no one was willing to take on the fight against big companies. Like general motors in those cases didn't always make it far but in the end robert would get some wins as well a jury ruled against ford in nineteen ninety and a judgment against chrysler ordered the company to pay him thirty million dollars. It was even appealed all the way to the supreme court as the company tried to dual the inventor into the ground. Fortunately for robert the justices refused to bend to the big companies pressure. It became a classic story of the underdog coming out on top. But there's one more thing that makes roberts invention fascinating is see. The whole project to prevent car. Accidents started out with an accident and a bad one but not a car crash. You see when robert was on his honeymoon celebrating his brand new marriage. He did what so many people do and popped open a bottle of champagne and that's when the cork became dangerous projectile. It hit young roberts. In the i his new wife phyllis rushed to his side as the blood ran down his face. The injury was bad enough that he lost most of the sites in his left eye. In the end it was robert. Kerns accident that inspired an invention that would come to define his life's work all inspired by the original intermittent wiper that we all benefit from every day. The lid of the human i.

One one to talking about your career your life story from the very beginning you know your political career dating back to al gore's presidential campaign. I believe so. I encourage everybody to listen to episode one until after this episode to get to know your personal story a little bit better but today we are going to focus on. You know some current topics. Niger say before we get into that. You are the president and ceo of the organization. Asian pacific american institute for congressional studies or apec. Could you give us a quick overview of the mission and the goal of this organization. You're leading which. I think actually is a good background and foundation for other stuff. We're gonna talk about later on in this interview. Well absolutely so apex down at twenty. Six years ago by former secretary norm annetta when he was a member of congress. He founded it alongside on the congressional asian pacific american caucus k. pack which comprise of the api members of the us house and senate and so apex mission is to increase a representation at all levels of government <hes>. From community service to elected office and have them participate at all levels of the electoral process. Gotcha so it's interesting that you mention norman. Mineta who i think is one of the first cabinet secretaries of asia-american designed in our country. I don't know the first night check on that. The first right okay. So yeah. I think he was transportation secretary. He was actually commerce. Secretary and president clinton's administration got it and then went to transportation under the bush administration. Gotcha gotcha he has this. Unique history of serving the first cabinet secretary serving both administrations both parties administrations. And really i think started in important. I guess trend of representation that is about to end with the incoming biden administration. And we're talking about as we are a few days before job and becomes president to be inaugurated. This will be the first time in close more than twenty years that they will not be in asia. American or pacific islander as a cabinet secretary in an administration whether it's democrat or republican for the first time. And you as the leader of a pack which is a nonprofit has spoken out quite a bit about a lack of representation. Could you share with us. What is your view of what is about to happen with this. Lack of representation in the incoming administration sure dodge. Obviously we have an incoming vice president. Who is a pi asian american. She south asian descent black vice president-elect kamla harris and also to cabinet level positions. They don't head up an executive department of which there are fifteen. And that's catherine tie. Vr and near attendant. You know the to cabinet. Level positions obviously have a lot of influence and i will just use the word sides <hes> the congressional hispanic caucus and the congressional black caucus as well as k. Pack when they sent a joint letter over a hundred and fifteen members of congress to the by the administration saying close to equal equal. And so that is that those were their words and so <hes>. And so you know. I cabinet secretary heads of an executive department. And there's only fifteen of them and so when you think about that fifteen how's that diversity including asian americans. It doesn't because there isn't one of the fifteen a. I applaud the administration for their work in trying to expand diversity in having openly. Lgbtq individual leading agency <hes>. And native american woman of half of the cabinet will be women so all those great things. So if you wanted to find diversity and not include asians in the fifteen than i need to ask you. What is your definition of diversity. Because we seem we've seen this play out and other places where the state of washington. I think they're department of education. Basically categorized asian americans as white so obviously a different definition of diversity.

They only make those boxes so tall. They have a 36 inch cabinet and maybe a 40 inch cabinet. OK, and then they might have a 12 or 15 inch tapping that you could stack on top of that, So that's off the shelf stuff. But when you're doing things that you're doing custom Do you typically go up to the ceiling or against Ghana? Nate like it? Let's say a 10 ft ceiling way Have it all depends on the look. How small is the room is the room's really narrow But it's really tall ceiling. We might not want to go all the way up because it might feel towering. Like those Cabinet trees. Cabinets are Leaning in on you. Okay? Doesn't fill up the space. Right? So we take a look at what visual references are on the space. And then give suggestions on how we want to utilize that cabinetry. Okay, if it's a more open space, maybe you're very wide kitchen and may open to another room. Yeah, let's go to the ceiling. Let's take those all the way up. Because it's gonna fill up the space. It's gonna be more visually appealing. It's not gonna look like you just have a short little cabinet stuck to the side of the wall. Okay? Gotcha. Gotcha. Well, what are some of the common problems that you have for other rooms? Let's say bathrooms, for example. Bathroom. The Vanities are very interesting problem for many people how they want to use the vanity. You mean like like a double vanity versus two separate vanities? Or you could be a double vantage it that the space doesn't allow for double vanity. Maybe there's a lady wants to be have her hair dryer, but it's always being left out on the counter. Cem pullouts Now that allow for the power to be in the pull out and you can store your iron and blow dryer in that drawer, And they're designed in such a way that if the item is plugged in, you can't shut The drawer. Okay, so it prevents from fires, So that's a great utility or vanities. Also, there's some different drawer pullouts and trash can pull outs and stores that you do in the vanity. Well, storage is actually seems to be like one of the big things again, referring to my own house. Our master bathroom is actually fairly large. But there's hardly anywhere to put anything. You know, like the towels. Where do you put because there's nowhere to put him that the drawer space in the Cabinet space is really not that much right, especially about 36 or 48, inch vanity. There's not a lot of shelf once you put the face Freeman and the drawer box. George Box Now only 9 to 10 inches wide. It's not very big to put put towels and so do you sometimes rip stuff out and start over in the bathroom. So you can put more storage and we can. We'll try to design around what they what their stores needs are, you know you buy a house initially don't know what all your needs are and what you lived in the house for a while. You realize what your needs are? I wish I had somewhere to put this right. Yeah, These are my bought these towels. These are super big and fluffy, and I want to show them off, so maybe we'll build a linen closet. Next to the vanity that goes up taller. Okay.

This new impeachment resolution, says quote President Trump gravely endanger the security of the United States and its institutions of government. He threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power and imperil a coequal branch of government. He thereby betrayed his trust as president to the manifest injury of the people of the United States. It's likely House lawmakers will vote Wednesday on impeached. Meant, and Democrats are expected to have enough support for their effort. But that's exactly one week before Joe Biden's inauguration, Fox's Mike Emanuel, legal scholars disagree whether the president could be impeached after his term ends. But West Virginia Democrat Senator Joe Manchin tells Fox is special report with Bret Bear wouldn't be the right move. Impeachment doesn't help anything.
