Well, as you've been hearing here on Bloomberg, The Pentagon downed an unidentified object over Alaska today, the order of President Biden, Pentagon's Pentagon spokesman John Kirby confirmed the shootdown over Alaska airspace.

On the latest balance of our podcast, I talked to SEC chair Gary gensler about the settlement he reached against kraken over the crypto issue called staking and what it means for the industry. This significance is there's a business model in crypto, whereby these I'll call them storefronts. They're intermediaries. They ask the public and they solicit the public for their funds, their crypto. And they say, we'll give you a return. And they might call it lending, in this case it was called staking as a service and we'll give you 4% 8% or even 21% returns. And therein lies the issue. They were doing this without the proper disclosure and the investing public gets to decide what risks they want to take. And these key questions was cracking or others that do this where they taking those tokens and doing what they're saying on their website or are they lending them, trading against them, running other business models, and so the disclosure is critical for the investing public. So my understanding is now cracking can no longer do this domestically in the United States for U.S. citizens. Unless I guess they register as a security, does that mean they can't be in that business or can they just come back and say, okay, now we're registered. We'll make the disclosures you want. I'll make it more generic. These storefronts, these crypto exchanges, crypto, lending platforms, crypto staking as a service. They need to come into compliance and they are generally non compliant right now.

1st officer in Nichols arrest accused of brutality as jailer
"The first officer in the arrest of Tyree Nichols had been accused of brutality as a jailer. Before police officer Demetrius Haley pulled Tyree Nichols from his car last month, Haley was accused of taking part in the savage beating of an inmate at the Shelby county jail, the 2015 incident was so disturbing that 34 other inmates, the entire cell block, signed a letter to the corrections director. Part of the letter stated we are truly asking that this matter gets looked into before someone gets hurt really bad or loses their life. It's unclear if Haley was ultimately disciplined for the incident or cleared of any wrongdoing. He's one of 5 officers charged with second degree murder in the death of Nichols. I'm Shelley antler

"Our producer, top story we're following for you this morning President Biden said part of Wednesday in Wisconsin, touting his State of the Union promise to boost economic hopes for the state's blue collar workers that truck comes in the wake of what was a rambunctious night on Capitol Hill, even before the rancor displayed during the address in the House chamber there was a tourist exchange between Utah senator Mitt Romney and embattled New York congressman George Santos. The night began on a dramatic note. Cameras caught Utah Republican Mitt Romney scolding New York congressman George Santos for attending the address. But he shouldn't be there and if he had any shame at all, he wouldn't be there. And I think it's reprehensible that the senator would say such a thing to me in the demeaning way he said it wasn't very Mormon of him. That CBS is weijia Jiang reporting, even while the House chamber was packed for Tuesday night's address, it wasn't exactly must see TV. An estimated 27.3 million people watched president Joe Biden State of the Union address on television Tuesday night.

The only smaller audience for the address to Congress since 1993 was the 26.9 million people who saw Biden in 2021, nearly three quarters of the people who watched Biden's speech for 55 years and older.

We see carjacking and other violent crimes through the roof in D.C. and yet the council voted to get rid of those mandatory minimum sentences to let more violent criminals back out on the streets. D.C. delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton has argued against the bill, citing it as another example of congressional Republicans trying to meddle in what should be an issue for the district and its residents. The GOP has also tried to rescind a D.C. measure that would allow non citizens to vote in local elections. On Capitol Hill, Mitchell Miller, WTO.

The legislation seeks to restrict where you can carry a concealed weapon in Maryland, including schools, polling places, hospitals, and other historically sensitive places. It was revised in the hours before the hearing, though some lawmakers still doubted it was constitutional.

It's three 34, a long battle with inflation remains, that's the gist of what Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell is saying even though the last interest rate hike from the fed was smaller than pass rate hikes. The goal is to get inflation down to 2%. We expect significant progress on inflation this year. But Powell told the economic club of Washington. The reality is we're going to react to the data. Powell says if more jobs reports like the one last month or inflation data come in way above expectations, they may have to add on even more interest rate hikes.

'Deadly brew': Amid soaring crime, Memphis cops lowered bar
"Former recruiters for the Memphis police department say that in recent years there's been a growing desperation to fill hundreds of slots which they say leads to lower standards. Alvin Davis, a lieutenant in charge of recruiting before he retired last year, says police recruits were increasingly coming from jobs at McDonald's and Dunkin drive-throughs. David says when interviewing new recruits some would say they were becoming a police officer strictly for the money of $15,000 signing bonus, Memphis police have not responded to requests for comment of the 5 former police officers now charged with the brutal beating death of Tyree Nichols, two of them, Emmett Martin the third and Demetrius Haley appeared to have been arrested in the past, according to files from the state oversight agency, peace officers standards, and training commission, but information concerning those arrests was blacked out.

Demetrius Haley and Desmond mills junior failed to file a quote response to resistance form after using physical force during arrests in 2021 and 2019, respectively. In January of 2021, Justin Smith, receiving a two day suspension without pay and ordered remedial drivers training for striking a vehicle, causing it to spin out and strike another.

Throughout the weekend peaceful protests from coast to coast calls for justice in tyrese name. Meanwhile, Nichols family asking that this is how he is remembered. The young man who loved photography and skateboarding. The district attorney says more charges are an option the investigation is still ongoing. So more individuals could be charged at a later time. I spoke with one of the attorneys representing one of the former officers Desmond mills junior and he says that the level of culpability for the officers is different. He also says that his client regrets what happened. ABC Stephanie Ramos and while details are still sparse, we learned this morning that a 6th officer involved in the cases being suspended, but it is unclear what role they may have played.

The Ben Shapiro Show

"5 black Memphis police officers are charged with murder in the killing of black man Tyree Nichols at the left still says it's systemic racism, a highly touted think tank that promoted the Russian collusion narrative was a hoax, but the media promoted them anyway. And the media tried to excuse a Palestinian Arab murdering 7 Jewish synagogue goers all in the name of peace. I'm Ben Shapiro, this is the Ben Shapiro show. Today's show is sponsored by ExpressVPN. Do you like your web history being seen until advertisers? No, me neither. And ExpressVPN right now at ExpressVPN dot com slash Ben. Well, as we've discussed many times in the past year on the Ben Shapiro show, narrative trumps all when it comes to the left wing. And it never has this been drawer. And in the case of Tyree Nichols, Harry Nichols was a 29 year old black man whose hospitalized with a confrontation after a confrontation with police during a traffic stop earlier this month, the officers were then fired this in Memphis, Tennessee. They were accused of using excessive force in an encounter that was captured on the video. We're going to go through the video because it's kind of important to see what exactly was going on. The key fact here, because again, narrative means everything to the left is that the 5 police officers who have now been charged, they were all arrested on charges, including second degree murder. Their names are terrorists being Demetrius Haley Emmet Martin the third, Desmond mills junior and Justin Smith. They were all arrested, and they were all black. And the victim in this particular case was also black. This does not stop the left from claiming that white supremacy is to blame, because white supremacy is the ghost in the machine. It is responsible for literally everything in life. Just as to the feminist movement, everything in the world is the patriarchy to the left when it comes to race every single thing is white supremacy, even if it is black police officers who are beating and effectively killing a black man. That is still white supremacy. One of the worst things about politics is that single factor analysis tends to be. The most easily available, way of approaching politics, and it's also the worst way. People tend to think very simplistically about politics just as they think about other things in their life. And so if you are a hammer in search of a nail, everything looks like a nail. And so if you are a left winger on race, everything looks like white supremacy. If you're a feminist, everything looks like the patriarchy. If your Marxist everything looks like class warfare. Now the reality is that life is much more complicated than that, that there are a bunch of different forces that play on individuals in our world and that it's a combination of those forces and the individual decisions made by those individuals that leads to particular action. But when it comes to politics, the easiest thing is to blame some sort of gigantic force and then say that you are fighting that force and if you fight that force properly, well, then this thing never would have happened. If your Marxist, if you just fight the predations of capitalism, well then all evil will go away. If you're a feminist and you fight the patriarchy, all evils will go away. We'll alleviate the generalized condition and all of the evils go away. Well, as we'll see, this is not the case in Memphis, Tennessee, not by a long shot. Hey, so what exactly happened in the case of Tyree Nichols? Well, we now have video of the traffic stop. Apparently, according to the videos, you can see that Tyree Nichols was pulled over by the cops. And they stopped their cars in front and in back of him. And then they tell him to get on the ground. And he sits down, he's not sure exactly what is meant by get on the ground, and they tell him they want to lie on the ground. They're yelling orders at him. He's apparently trying kind of have to comply. At a certain point, he just runs away. First point, never run away from the cops. This does not end well, running from the cops is a stupid thing to do. This is not alleviate any of the evils of the police officers who are rightly being charged with aggravated assault, and some of them being charged with second degree murder. But many factors lead up to a situation in which the police do something like this. So you can see in the video, what exactly happened? There are multiple camera angles. And in this particular case, what you see is that Tyree Nichols is pulled over. One of the questions in this particular case is whether he was pulled over for a good reason or a bad reason why they had reasonable suspicion to pull him over or not. He did not have a prior criminal record. It is not clear why exactly they pulled him over. I'm sure that's going to be the defense's case at trial because one of the things that some of the police officers are being charged with here is kidnapping, meaning that it was sort of arrested under false pretenses. They pulled him over for no apparent reason, is sort of the implication here. And so before they actually release the tape. And before we found out all the details, the Memphis police chief actually came out preemptively and said it was worse than Rodney King, which is not something that police chiefs should be saying. The reason they should not be saying this is it sets the stage for riots. What they should say is these police officers have already been arrested. They have already been charged. Most of them will go to jail undoubtedly. This is how the justice system is supposed to work is that when this stuff emerges, people get arrested and they go to jail. Instead, when you start ratcheting up the tensions, you are leading the way to something that is going to look very much like street violence because this is exactly what we saw in Ferguson, Missouri.

"7 after the hour President Biden was in Virginia yesterday, saying his economic plan is working. John stones has more from Washington. New government data released yesterday, showing the nation's gross domestic product for the final quarter of last year grew, despite high inflation that is making everything more expensive. At a speech in Springfield, Virginia, President Biden says these are encouraging numbers. And I'm not sure. I mean, it's sincerely the news could have been any better. Economic growth is up, stronger than expert expected at 2.9%. We're going. That 2.9% was a bit lower than the 3.2% growth we saw in the third quarter. But the president touting other numbers that he says shows a growing economy. 6 months inflation has gone down every month and God willing will continue to do that. Manufacturing jobs continue to grow stronger than any time in the last 40 years. And I don't think it's unfair to say that this is all evidence that the Biden economic plan because you all is actually working that's working. Jobs numbers continue to be strong last year employers added four and a half million jobs. Second most since 1940 and the unemployment rate for December of three and a half percent matched a 53 year low. They've been telling me since I got elected. We're going to be in a recession. Every time we've gone, we gotten better. Well, it turns out, thank God they were wrong. Still, many analysts do believe a recession is coming this year, as the Federal Reserve continues to raise key interest rates in an attempt to slow down the economy and tamp down on inflation. Another potential pitfall, the debt ceiling, which analysts say, could trigger a deep recession if Congress does not vote to raise it, something House Republicans say they will only do when Democrats offer key concessions on spending. Look, if Republicans want to work together on real solutions and continue to grow manufacturing jobs, build the strongest economy in the world to make sure Americans are paid a fair wage, I'm ready. But I will not let anyone use the full faith and credit of the United States as a bargaining ship. Your United States of America, we pay our debts. The Treasury Department says a vote on the debt limit will need to happen likely by June and the fed is expected to raise rates again next week, something likely to cool the job market and reduce American spending. John stillness, Washington. 9 pass now. Law enforcement officials in Memphis are blasting the 5 fired police officers who've now been charged with murder in the beating death of a black motorist earlier this month. As correspondent Jackie Quinn reports the family of the victim, supports charges against the officers as well as release of police body cam footage. To Darius bean, Demetrius Haley, Emmett Martin the third, Desmond mills junior, and Justin Smith. The grand jury returned indictments against all 5 with the same charges. Second degree murder, aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, resulting in bodily injury, aggravated kidnapping, involving the possession of a weapon. The head of the Tennessee bureau of investigation says the traffic stop that resulted in Tyree Nichols death in no way reflected proper policing. This was wrong. This was criminal. And director David rausch and W M C TV says. Frankly, I'm shocked. I'm sickened. Shelby county district attorney Steve mulroy says all 5 officers are being charged with second degree murder. Kidnapping and other violations in the brutal beating that took place after Nichols was pulled over pepper sprayed, fled, and then caught again, and allegedly beaten for several minutes. While each of the 5 individuals played a different role in the incident in question, the actions of all of them resulted in the death of Tyree Nichols, and they are all responsible. Mulroy says he'll release the police videos of the traffic, stop Friday evening. It's my hope that if there is any silver lining to be drawn from this very dark cloud, it's that perhaps this incident can open a broader conversation about the need for police reform.
