Federal Reserve likely to skip interest rate hike at next meeting in June, officials signal
"Federal Reserve officials are sending out stronger signals they may forgo an interest rate increase at the Central Bank's next meeting. I'm Ben Thomas with the latest. Three leading fed officials have expressed support for the idea of skipping a rate hike in June, fed governor Phillip Jefferson says that would give policymakers time to see more data. President Biden has nominated Jeff sent to be the fed's vice chair, putting him close to the center of fed policy making, the comments come despite a slew of tough talk from other fed policymakers and to disappointing inflation report last week, and those suggesting a pause also indicate hikes could resume later this year. The fed has implemented ten straight hikes pushing its benchmark interest rate to about 5.1%, the highest in 16 years. Ben Thomas, Washington

"It's just not true But that's just days away from June 15th 20 quarterly tax payments come due According to every expert I've consulted By June 15th we have more than enough money to take us into late July I don't advise us to go that long We should have dealt with this starting in January But we at least shouldn't be acting under the false premise that we must act in the next three or four days or cause world calamity because that is just a lie Yeah there's more than enough tax revenue to pay interest on any debt obligations We've accrued by the way And there will be left over

Sen. Mike Lee: This Imposter Bill Puts the Onerous on Republicans
"I find it odd that we undermine their own piece of legislation which already passed the House for a week or bill that you now have to fight to pass the House That call me crazy center but that sounds like regression not progress It is regression precisely And we undermine that in the process we undermine all Republicans Look a few weeks ago I put out a letter a letter that we signed by 43 Senate Republicans We only needed 41 but we got 43 three others that they agreed with the substance of it for strategic reasons didn't want to sign it What that essentially said was let's assuming those 43 at a minimum would have been willing to vote to pass Bill like limits save grow What that meant was that it would be up to the Democrats because it'd be up to the Democrats to limit safe growth had already passed in the House They didn't even need to Democrats over there All we needed then was for Chuck Schumer to find 17 Democrats to vote for it So as to avoid what the Democrats themselves are touting as an imminent emergency By doing this by coming forward with this impostor bill that purports to have all these savings measures in it but on further examination it's just smoke and mirrors he's now put the onus back on Republicans You watch remark my words Dan what they're going to do this is going to unite Democrats Democrats are going to be just thrilled about this You will have more Democrats excited to vote for it than you have Republicans This will be good for them put the onus back on Republicans You're already seeing conservative Republicans who are opposing it Being attacked And that is because of this very thing And by the way the reason the only reason why they have any ability to claim that this is the only deal is because of this fake June 5th deadline

Biden, GOP reach debt-ceiling deal, now Congress must approve it to prevent calamitous default
"A debt ceiling deal has been reached by President Biden and the GOP now Congress must approve it to prevent a potentially disastrous U.S. default. Negotiators agreed to some Republican demands for increased work requirements for food stamp recipients, but stopped short of greater spending cuts overall that Republicans wanted, House speaker Kevin McCarthy calls it an agreement in principle worthy of the American people. As historic reductions in spending, consequential reforms and lift people out of poverty into the workforce, Rey and government overreach, there are no new taxes, no new government programs. In a statement, President Biden says the agreement represents a compromise, which means not everyone gets what they want. Central to the compromise a two year budget deal that would hold spending flat for 2024 and increase it by 1% the following year in exchange for raising the debt limit for two years.

McCarthy sending negotiators to White House to finish debt limit talks, but sides 'far apart'
"House speaker Kevin McCarthy says he remains optimistic the two sides can make a deal as the nation approaches a debt to fall as soon as next week. McCarthy says he's sending his negotiators back here to The White House in the hopes of finishing out debt limit talks, but there's a number of places that we are still far apart. Put simply. We have to spend less than we spent last year. Democrats are willing to freeze spending, not cut it, as the impasse continues treasury chief Janet Yellen tells the WSJ CEO council summit that without a deal to boost the debt limit, it seems nearly certain the U.S. will run out of cash to pay its bills in early June.

"Target is the latest company to suffer backlash for LGBTQ+ support and is pulling some Pride Month clothing, I'm Lisa dwyer. Target is removing some items from its stores and making other changes to its LGBTQ+ merchandise nationwide ahead of Pride Month in June after an intense backlash from some customers, including violent confrontations with target's workers. Targets said the customers knocked down pride displays in some stores, angrily approached workers and posted threatening videos on social media from inside the stores. Target declined to specify which items it was removing, but among the ones that garnered the most attention were tuck friendly women's swimsuits that allow trans women who have not had gender affirming operations to conceal their private parts. There are close to 500 anti LGBTQ+ bills that have gone before state legislatures since the start of this year. The American civil liberties union says that's an unprecedented number.

Debt ceiling talks stuck on classic problem: Republicans demand spending cuts and Democrats resist
"Debt ceiling talks yesterday showed few outward signs of progress with Republican negotiators accusing The White House of wasting precious time in the bid to avoid a debt default. The lack of urgency here is apparent. GOP negotiator Patrick mchenry's criticism drew a fast response. There's a ridiculous statement for them to be making. From White House spokeswoman karine Jean Pierre. There's an urgency. We want to see this done as soon as possible. And while House speaker Kevin McCarthy says they're not there yet. I believe we can still get there and get there before June 1st. When the Treasury Department says America may run out of cash to pay its bills, triggering up perhaps catastrophic default. The GOP's insisting the government roll back spending next year, which is the key sticking point. McCarthy says negotiators are looking at creative cuts, all sides can accept Sagar Meghani, Washington.

"This year she was everywhere. She was in the United States delivering the commencement address at Harvard. She met with President Biden and she was even on the Stephen Colbert show at home, however, elections loom next year, and things are getting tough. Food is getting expensive. Fuel is getting expensive, rent is spiking, and this is making life on a daily basis very difficult for New Zealanders. And it's these bread and butter issues that are dragging her down. And as this piece says, we see the personality and the rest of the world, New Zealand is looking for the policy. It sounds like there's a little bit of, I don't know, could we say resentment, brewing in New Zealand? Because there is this divergence in her international image and her domestic image. And I wonder if there isn't a bit of sort of, hey, look, settle down, let's focus on domestic issues. Some of the issues that she's dealing with are global in nature and every senior politician is struggling. Some of them are quite specific to New Zealand and she's going to need to have a breakthrough on one or both of those fronts. Now, Charles this weekend, I was sort of semi double booked. I was at an event in gesta in Switzerland. And I was also to chair an event for the hamster garden suburb of literary festival in the afternoon. And I was looking into whether I could get back or at least get back to the airport by either helicopter private jet. And unfortunately, that was not possible. I had to cancel the event back in London. But apparently, U.S. companies spending on private jets for personal use has hit a ten year high just not for the people that I happen to know in gesta. I'm Georgina, I'm shocked to learn that you do not already have a private personal jet at your disposal given your busy international literary lifestyle. But yes, we go to the Financial Times, which tells us that U.S. companies spending on private jets for personal use hits a ten year high. And this is one of these sort of like hemlines stories that private jet use kind of goes up and down as a reflection of the times. Businesses lean. Everyone's like, you know, off the private jet. And then what happened was the pandemic and executives started traveling on private jets because it was believed to be safer. And apparently giving up the habit is proving incredibly difficult. This is an interesting piece because in the FT, there is a table that tells us that something like 15 American companies are spending more than half a $1 million some over a $1 million annually on private jets for the personal use. Let alone business trips for the personal use of their senior executives. Which is extraordinary. Cry me a river. Yeah, and check that carbon footprint too. Precisely.

"Live from London. This is the globalist with me, emine Nelson, a very warm welcome to today's program coming up. The Baltic states unite as they are pulled into the periphery of the Ukrainian war, will examine what needs to be done to stop them being dragged into the conflict and how to prevent a war between Russia and NATO. Also, head to EU meets the nations of the western Balkans for the latest chapter in the story of attempted membership lasting 20 years. We'll hear about a saga of patience and frustration. Plus the biggest shake up in two decades of gambling in Macau are Hong Kong bureau chief will outline a bill to open up the Las Vegas of Asia to more visitors. We'll look at the papers and visit the London Indian film festival too. It's not just Indian films for Indian audiences. Films for the past showing the best of world cinema for everyone. So lots of look forward to on the globalist live from London. So a look at what else is happening in today's news. The Taliban in Afghanistan have appealed for international help following an earthquake in which more than a thousand people have died. Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has arrived in Iran and has held a meeting with the Iranian president Ibrahim raisi. And the head of the armed forces in Finland has said that his country has prepared for a Russian attack for decades and would put up stiff resistance should one occur. Stay tuned to molecule 24 throughout the day for more on those stories, but first, if you live in Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia, you will have been wondering whether you could be the next target of Vladimir Putin's troops. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has deeply troubled the three small Baltic states and other countries on NATO's eastern Flank like Romania and Poland, and earlier this week there were signs of saber rattling. Also tell us more Elizabeth braw is resident fellow at the American enterprise institute and a columnist for foreign policy and I'm also glad to say she's a regular voice here in Monaco 24. Good to have you. Thank you. Let us begin with the events that we've seen from this week. We have Estonian authorities saying that a Russian border guard helicopter has violated the nation's airspace, simulated missile attacks. So we have a military sort of spat going on there, but we also have this big argument between Lithuania and Russia about the delivery of supplies to the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad. That's right. Another busy day or a busy week rather in the Baltic states. So the case of Russian goods traveling through Lithuania is really quite interesting. So it's a long-standing arrangement that allows Russia to transport goods all the way to its exclave of Kaliningrad, which is not connected to Russia proper and that is enshrined in various treaties and has never been contested clearly because it's an enshrine treatise. But Lithuania is now in the curious position of being an EU member state that is supposed to implement EU sanctions on Russia and goods traveling into the EU. What do you do if you are an EU member state and Russian goods travel into your country? But with the destination not being your country, but the next claim. So Lithuania is in a bit of an odd position and nevertheless has taken the position that it should inspect these goods or rather it should block these goods because they are traveling into Lithuania. And Russia says a provocation. So that's where we are. Indeed, we have a senior military leader coming in saying serious consequences could ensue if this continues. Let's also hear now from kadri leek, who's a policy fellow at the European council on foreign relations and it's an Estonian journalist, very good morning to you kadri. Just explain to us a little bit more about what's been happening with us with Estonia in the last couple of days. To be honest, I don't think it's anything out of extraordinary. I mean, Russia has been simulating military attacks against the Baltics repeatedly. And the latest one in Estonia, well, I can't say it makes no news. Yes, it does because the current background of war makes everyone more nervous, but this is really nothing one off. So and likewise, the helicopter. So we have had violations of airspace also repeatedly, some of them due to technical reasons because the airspace boundaries are tricky drone. This is not that case, but yet again, in Estonia no one takes it too dramatically. So let's explain, therefore, the exact existing lines of defense and defense there is still in the likes of Estonia and Latvia and Lithuania. To protect them from anything that the Russians could do, Elizabeth. They are themselves set up with our armed forces and quite significant armed forces for countries, the size of the Baltic states. Themselves set up to defend themselves. But nobody, including the Baltic states themselves, are under an illusion that they would be able to match Russia, which is that which is the reason that they were so keen, so early on after independence to join NATO and after many years of hard work to meet NATO's requirements, they were invited to join NATO and now since, well, after Russia's annexation of Crimea and the conflict in eastern Ukraine in 2014, NATO decided to put what's called enhanced forward presence, which is a smaller unit of around 1000 soldiers each in these countries and Poland. And these are multinational groups. So in Estonia, it's mostly the UK. So mostly UK soldiers in Latvia, it's mostly Canadian soldiers, but with some other nationalities in Lithuania, mostly German soldiers in Poland's mostly American soldiers. And they are there essentially as a tripwire not to provide the entire defense, but for NATO to be able to say to say to Russia, we are there. We are helping our Friends, the Baltic states in Poland defending themselves. And don't you, dare kill them. We kill one of our soldiers. And catch it, do you think that membership of NATO and EU is enough to deter Putin? I have believed that. Yes. To be honest, I have not.

"Free to roam as well. So that would be my first recommendation for the ones who go there in the summer. Ambassador kosari, thank you for joining us. You're listening to the briefing on monocle 24. This is the briefing on monocle 24 in this ears Thursday's briefing and this is the last item thereof, so it is. With all due trepidation time to welcome Fernando Augusto peco to the studio with this week's global countdown Fernando as I understand it, this is not the usual global countdown usually we look at the top 5 of a particular country, but this week is one of those weeks we've decided to impose one of your themes upon proceedings. It's a good theme and by the way you can blame it on me if you don't like the songs you can really blame him. I often blame the people who made the record. But I do also blame you as a subsidiary culprit for bringing them to my attention. So basically our new issue, the quality of life he is coming out today. And for the magazine, I chose a playlist of a hundred, a summary tracks. So you can listen and enjoy the summer. Listeners. I can not over stress this. We will only be doing 5. Please, please stick for the next four weeks for the next really? Yes. That'll only be 20. It's just a taster. Of course, you have to buy the magazine if you want to look at the full on list. And perhaps go to Spotify as well. So is the idea within the context of the magazine, which is all about how to improve the quality of life that your playlist will kind of reduce it back to the average, or absolutely. And I divided the playlist in 5 moods as well. I think that's the truth. So we'll play one track for each mood. The first one. It's one of the moods to spare Fernando. Who knows? The first one. I think you perhaps you might like this, is road trip. So this is songs that you can have a listen when you're driving to a canal or to brighter, or to whatever. Tell me a place in Australia you would like to drive. Anywhere that gets me away from what we're about to hear. I suspect I do like a road trip. So, and there is a specific sort of music, which I do think works well on road trips. So this is going to be a country record, isn't it? Of course, not. This is actually Japanese house music. We'll have a listen out to shinichiro yokota with night drive. Let's have a listen. When does it start? Well, I mean, you shouldn't say anything bad about shinichiro yokota. He's a Japanese house music legend. And that's from his 2016 album. Do it again. And it's funny. I think that was his first full on album. I mean, he's been going on since the 80s, but I think he never actually kind of wrote a whole album. There were a lot of singles here and there. I quite like that. So I think it's quite gentle. I can totally imagine myself driving. I mean, I can imagine it in the context of a car in that I can imagine asking the taxi driver if he would mind turning that off. But we will move on to what it says here is a pero time, which I do understand in that this segment of the briefing very often makes me wish I'd had a drink beforehand. So how do you see this fitting the summer mood? This is a kind of a pre dinner drink. So, you know, something you can dance to but not too much, so it's not really a club anger, but there's some Sims here and there. It's dancing before dinner a thing people do. I think so. What a bit of a pre dinner dance. I think I actually prefer dancing before dinner, because after dinner, I usually like to sleep. So why not during? And this artist actually had the pleasure to go to Vienna to interview him for the magazine when we did our Austrian issue. One of the most famous Austrian DJs, and there's a very special guest in the show. Exactly. I will tell you who is the special guest after. This is Wolfram, what is what is it like?.

Look, interestingly, the capital is in the Australian capital territory and the government here has a objective of 100% renewable energy and in fact it's sort of almost got to that now. And so the ACT market is a little bit insulated from the problems that are going on in New South Wales, but really the entire east coast of Australia, the energy market that reaches from Queensland all the way down south. Is affected by the problems we're having in the market. Western Australia interestingly operates on a separate grid and has a gas reserve system for domestic gas use. Which is helping it in this situation. But the problems we're having on the east coast are very complicated relating to a number of different factors. And the result of that you've just discussed is sort of the consequences of a sudden cold snap very early in winter that wasn't expected. As I'm sure one Sydney side at least has muttered to themselves as they sit at home in the dark. However, Australia is a colossal exporter of energy resources, coal, LNG, et cetera how is it possible that Australia finds itself in this situation? So as I said, it is a confluence of circumstances that are a bit strange that have come together at one time. We are still quite reliant on coal fired power, but we are seeing a lot of those coal fired power stations becoming very old and needing a lot of upkeep. So we have this combination of scheduled maintenance taking those powers, some of those power stations offline. And unscheduled incidents where maintenance is, well, power stations are breaking down. So they're getting old and the owners of those generated generates are not wanting to pay enormous amounts of money for upkeep on old infrastructure that we all know is sort of phasing out. So there's a problem with that. Normally we would have fall back on gas, but the war in Ukraine is seeing the market from gas change quite a change quite dramatically because people don't want to buy gas from Russia. So there's a huge market suddenly for Australian gas. The price has gone through the roof and a lot of Australian gas providers have long-term contracts anyway. So extracting some of the gas for the domestic market is proving complicated and expensive and that's where I mentioned the arrangements in Western Australia are separate from the east. On top of that, we are transitioning to renewable energy, but we haven't got enough renewable energy in a dispatchable form with battery use to fill the gap. So we've just got the situation where a range of things have come together, including this very cold weather, that mean that we don't have enough energy. Now at the moment, we're not actually seeing blackouts in Sydney or anywhere else. So people aren't really sitting in the dark or a lot of people have turned their power down and turned off appliances as requested, but we haven't yet seen blackouts and hopefully won't, but they can't tell us when the takeover of the spot market that the government, the government regulator initiated in the last couple of days we will end. And when the cold snap will end. This is obviously a large and unwelcome test for the new federal government of Anthony albanese. And I know this is a hypothetical question for which apologies, but is it possible to sort of assess how different his response has been to how his predecessor Scott Morrison noted coal enthusiast might have responded. I think it's not easy to say how they would have their response to this to an immediate crisis would differ but you can certainly assist their response in the medium and longer term and certainly the new government is a greater advocate of the transition away from fossil fuels to renewable energy and is arguing that had we made that transition sooner had we had greater certainty in our energy policy and on climate action generally over the past 9 years that the previous government was in office. They say we would be in a different position now and we wouldn't have faced the crisis at all. Now the old government now in opposition is saying the problem is that the Labor Party now in government is pushing renewables too quickly and that they can't make up the shortfall. So take your pick who you believe, but really we do know it is a fact that the previous government did take a long didn't act on climate change and didn't implement an energy transition policy. Now whether that would have absolutely prevented something like this is not clear and it's not really clear whether they're responses with different dramatically. But it's very hard for either side in government.

"Now in recent years, the world has become aware of the exceptional success of Finland's education system, but word of the nation's globally acclaimed and holistic teaching model has spread with some schools in India looking to improvise and adapt. A Monaco's Lillian forces sat down with her excellency Lee Anderson, whose Finland minister of education, Lillian began by asking her what makes Finland's education system so special. Well, firstly, and foremost, our teachers, we have highly educated teachers with master's degrees from universities and the teaching profession is also a very attractive one. Sorry, if I can mention just one thing that makes a finished course so good, I would absolutely mention the teachers. Another factor that proud of also is that there is a large degree of equality within the education systems or you have all pupils together in a publicly funded system with very small differences in learning outcomes between schools. What could finish education do better and what are some of the things that you are striving to improve in the system? We want to do even better when it comes to equality because even though we have systemically strong system we're seeing growing trend towards the socioeconomic background of the pupils affecting their learning outcomes more than before. So really wanting to strengthen the possibilities of all children. Getting more children to participate in early childhood education and care and also focusing more on the pedagogic of early childhood education and care. So that's one way in which we want to strengthen equality even further. I like to ask now a bit about the idea about exporting Finnish education. I have noticed that some schools, for example, in India are using the name of Finnish education or saying that they apply the finished education model. What are your views on that? And do you think that the Finnish education model system can be exported or is it intrinsic to Finnish culture? It's a very good question. I think overall it's quite hard to just copy and education system and kind of transfer it into another country because there are so many, you have to have a very holistic approach when you talk about education policy. And there's so many factors that you should take into account at the same time. So it's not enough to just have a physical school and call it a Finnish school, but really, as I said, the kind of overall values of society, like how we view education, the teaching profession, wages, universities, so many different things kind of add up to what is the finish education model. But of course, there are a lot of features that overall, if you look at education policy, a lot of stuff that we can learn from each other, I think, in different countries and features that are good to highlight. So that's why I usually also highlight the kind of importance and role of teachers because that's one thing that each country can think about and do strategies around from their own point of view. So how can we strengthen the teaching profession here in my country and how can we make sure that we would have more university educated teachers here? So kind of identifying the key factors, but then applying it to the national circumstances. And finally, what are your priorities for the future? We've seen with the war in Ukraine, the importance of things like miss and disinformation, especially spread through social media and these are obviously important issues for children and for educators as well. Very important topic to finish national core curricula already states that media literacy, for example, and also problem solving critical thinking that these are transversal competencies. So they're already enshrined in the national core curricula and they are competencies that each teacher should incorporate in his or her teaching, no matter what subject they teach. So we are working already with our children and youth, but of course looking at what happens in society around us and information society, technological development, and so on. It's even more important in the future. But my goal as a minister actually is also to kind of look at our adult population because the young generations now have been taught these things in school. They can be taught to think about where can I find information? How can I check if the information I find is correct? How can I differentiate news from opinions right from false? But we have a lot of older generations who have never been taught this in school. And who do live in the same information society use the same social media platforms and so on. So we really need to think about how we can reach the adult population and kind of incorporate this also in the adult education in the future. That was her excellency Lee Anderson speaking to Monica's Lillian fawcett there. You're listening to the globalist on monocle 24. It's 8 39 in Florence, 7 39 here in London.

"So we need to conclude this and understand what victory is will determine what the strategy is, which will determine the weapon system's operations that you then need to do to conclude. And at the moment, we're still unsure, and that's why I go back to that point. We're doing enough to ensure that Ukraine doesn't lose. But we could be doing a lot more to ensure that they win. You're quite right about that attention span aspect. I mean, you don't need that longer memory to recall a time when a lot of Europe sort of zoned out of the fact that a European capital was besieged for four years. And the parallels have been made between Ukraine and Bosnia and one of them was the imposition of a no fly zone, which you were in favor of over Ukraine early on. I used to in favor of it. So you need to qualify that. I was in favor of not talking about it. And whether you ruled it out privately, what you shouldn't do is to clear to your adversary what you're not going to do. No general does that on the battlefield. They didn't put out their red lines. So my concern was, it's an operational commitment, by the way. From a military perspective, it's there to achieve or part of an ambition to achieve a strategy. So denying the use of planes on both sides, Russia and the Ukraine, that's what a fly zone will be. It would be an international limit on anybody being able to use their space. To what end are you trying to introduce that? And my concern was very early in the day. We weren't doing that thought about where this whole war goes, and how we can provide support. Now the learning curve we've had since the beginning from hesitance in whether they're offensive or defensive weapons, whether there's MiG 29 should go, you know, we don't learn an awful lot, but we're still not letting fast enough to be able to slide more quality, more quantity of equipment over to make sure Ukraine can win. Do you think there is a division among Europeans for all that unity that you have mentioned and which yes is quite detectable here and was earlier. But there's still some, I guess, not lack of agreement, but lack of resolution about what a desireable outcome is. Is there still a division between people who think, well, if we get Russia back to where it started on February 24th, that would probably do and between people who think, no, this is the opportunity to chase them all the way back over their own side of the border. I think everybody privately would like to see Russia removed from Ukraine mainland. It is up for the Ukrainian people and the president himself to determine what that objective is. It's not for the west to actually clarify that themselves. Having said that, when I visited NATO recently, and I said, what's your view on this? It was very, very clear that if this fire in Ukraine is not put out, then it could easily spread elsewhere and be a bigger problem for NATO. Therefore, it's actually in NATO's interest to support extinguishing the problems in Ukraine. As you're thinking about what the west needs to do, changed at all over the last three months. Because again, going back to something you said in February you spoke of fears that the scale of atrocity will get so bad that eventually we will have to step forward and it regrettably you've been proved entirely right about what you suspected about the scale of atrocity. But where we are now, what do you think of practically when you talk about stepping forward? It's been a upgrade in our support that we will provide. So we've got more confident, more assertive in providing weapons systems, more aggressive weapon systems going from very simple over the shoulder launchers, anti tank weapons systems. So now we see predator drones being given and other long range artillery. So we are actually getting much, much better, knowing that if we don't do this, then we yes, we're going to see more atrocities as we saw in places like Mario pole and butcher and elsewhere. But are we still then in that thing of as you put it doing enough to ensure that Ukraine doesn't lose, but not enough that Ukraine wins. Is there going to come a point and you can see where I'm going with this that just sending Ukraine weapons is not going to be enough for president zelensky spoke earlier quite honestly of the casualties they were beginning to incur. Yeah, absolutely right. And again, this is a lack of coordination between the international community. Let's be very clear, NATO has not got a formal position on this. And that is frustrating. There'll be many generations in the future will look back at this. Depending on where this goes in, if this is repeated, let's say in 1938, 1939 and say why didn't we do more? A NATO most formidable military alliance in the world is watching this on their doorstep and not collectively doing anything about it. Now, that's because it's consensus driven, and you're not going to get hungry in turkey supporting anything to involve. Therefore, there needs to be a coalition of the willing formed. The United States needs to, I think, approve a Ukraine senior adviser that it coordinates all the activities between Poland, United Kingdom, America, the Baltics and so forth. Those countries that are winning to lean into and support Ukraine on another level compared with what NATO is doing at the moment. Do you still think America is the key player here though? You also said earlier in this conflict that this is a European problem, America isn't necessarily there to help. So you're right, politically, we could certainly do with this being a European focus. But ultimately the punch that America provides and is actually willing to provide as well. You'd be silly not to include them in the coordination and activities as well. They're offering their commitment their military presence here in Europe is still substantial. And if they are able to participate and willing to, then we should take advantage of that. There's been a refrain throughout this conflict which you will be familiar with this idea of attempting to furnish Russia or direct Russia to some sort of off ramp. Some way out of this that they can glide down with a certain amount of dignity, perhaps claim enough of a victory that they can sell it back home as not a complete waste of everybody's blood and treasure. Do you think we are past that point? Do you think there's any indication left that Russia's remotely interested in the way out of this? You make two good points there. Firstly, is are we still trying to create that off ramp up no worry is that there are certain countries, France, Germany and so forth that would like that to conclude this to be able to draw a line and then move forward. My concern with Russia is that there probably likely to somehow accept or play along with this, but this is far from over. We saw this in Georgia. We saw this in.

"And Elk start dropping their calves. And that's just essentially an easy picking buffet for bears. They can smell really well. It takes nothing for them to kill a thon or kill a calf. The only time that often they'll get spooked away by the herd. But for mule deer, especially the doze will leave the fawns kind of as a safety measure. And I feel like it obviously works, right? They've evolved to do that. But for a lot of areas, there's just too many bears that can find those fonts, and it's an easy snack. So for me, I like to focus in on those areas and find those bears that are that's their primary food source. And it is a reliable food source. It's fairly easy to find too because Elk and deer only in a few areas. The primary places that they like to drop the calves are places where, especially when it comes to Elk, places where there's easy food where they've got good cover where they've got everything kind of nearby and can also keep an eye on the herd. When it comes to mule deer, same thing, right? It's going to be out of the snow more mild terrain than maybe some of that big back country, cliffy rocky, open stuff that you might hunt early in the season. So you're going to be finding those more south facing slopes, the more gentle terrain, the kind of places that I described where maybe it's a new burn with it's got good new growth, a good place is for deer to hide, but also kind of everything that may be a dough would need to take care of a faun and a place to drop funds. And then they'll start to congregate. They concentrate where they're fawning because it's a safety numbers game. If there's a bunch of eyes looking out, then they can kind of help protect the other deer or the other Elk from predators. So I essentially use my optics and whatever to find the food source, the bait, the live bait, Elk and deer, primarily groups with doughs and fawns, right? Because that's going to be what they're going to be the bears are generally going to look at. It's a lot easier for them to take down the helpless font that's just hiding in the bushes than to run down a cow or a dough. So I like to find those areas that really have good concentrations of females that are fawning or calving. And that's something to focus on. Now another food source, they'll start to switch from some of that I know you think about it like, okay, as the spring progresses, you get more and more food, you get more and more foliage. So now we've got to think about places where maybe something's a little more limited, so I'll try to actually focus on those more open areas because there are other plant species that bears focus on in those calving areas, things like different types of tumors and roots of different plants and balsam REITs one..

And that's the week in Hollywood history on I Heart Radio. This is K F I am 6 40 heard everywhere in the I Heart radio app. I'm Oscar Ramirez and you're listening to the Daily Dive Weekend edition. On the coronavirus front. We had a new study that had some good news for the lingering question about how long immunity lasts after being vaccinated. The Mrna vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna set off a persistent immune reaction in the body. That could protect against the virus for years. The study suggests that most people immunized with the RNA vaccines might not need booster shots unless the virus and variants involved too much. For more on this will speak to approve a Mandeville e reporter at The New York Times. We don't really know how long the protection from vaccines last. There have been some studies suggesting that after natural infection immunity to the coronavirus might last a very long time, years and possibly a lifetime. But we didn't know that for vaccination, and it's a bit harder to study for vaccination because you have to be able to look at all kinds of cells and antibodies that fight the virus inside the body, and we just Have not been vaccinated for long enough to really have that information. So this study was very cool and that they looked at the source of those immune cells to figure out. How actively is the body preparing to fight the virus because that can give us a sense of how long the immunity loss? And when they're looking at this, they're looking at the limp nodes and we're talking about B cells. You know early throughout the pandemic as we're learning through all of this, we're talking about anybody's B cells and T cells. But with this study as I mentioned, we're focusing on B cells and the Germinal center that's forming in the left limp nodes help walk us through some of that. Sure, I'm surprised and delighted that we want to wade through all of that. So what happens after either infection or vaccination is that in the lymph nodes, you get this structure called the Germinal Center. It's sort of like a Training ground at school for the immune cells and the cells. That's where the B cells become more and more sophisticated. They learned to recognize lots of different variations of the virus, which is a good thing right because the virus is evolving, so just as the virus is evolving, these cells also continue to evolve, and they become capable of recognizing a lot of versions of the virus, the longer they have to practice. The better they get. And what this study showed is that those germinal centers where these B cells become more and more educated, are super active, even 15 weeks after the first dose of the MMR vaccine. That was kind of a surprise because normally the Germinal center sort of quiets down within about 4 to 6 weeks, so to see it so active at 15 weeks, That's a really good sign. That our memory B cells, the cells that produce antibodies and can remember the virus. They are going to stick around for a very long time, possibly for years, possibly a lifetime. How many people were involved in this study? And you were talking about 15 weeks after they were taken obviously samples in increments after they received their 1st and 2nd doses of vaccine, But how many people were in this study? And what else? How else was it conducted? I'm glad you asked me that question because I think some people have seen the numbers from the study and jump to the conclusion that it's too small to draw these conclusions. The study, they recruited 41 people, including eight who had been infected with the virus before and from 14 of the people. They took samples from the lymph nodes multiple times at three weeks, four weeks 57 15 weeks after the first shows. So people have been looking at that 14 number and thinking, Oh, but is this study too small? And it's not. And that's because, unlike a study that looks at a lot of people, but maybe looks at one time point in this case. They had 14 people, but they looked at multiple time points, which is really hard to do, especially when you're extracting samples from the lymph nodes. That is not a trivial task. So some of the researchers I talked to were really blown away by the in depth analysis from the study. In one scientist, I talked to called it a heroic study because it's just not the kind of analysis that's easy to do. So even though it's 14 people, it actually gives us a lot of information about what's happening with these immune cells. I mean, getting a time commitment from anybody is pretty hard to do. You know, One of the big caveats through all of this, though, is the variance, right? This is taking a look at what we have now and if the coronavirus continues to mutate, which it will do, You know who knows what happens then? And the virus is evolving, but we are, too. So that's kind of the only little caveat with this right? And it's a big one. It's a huge caveat, because we know that the virus is evolving. And we know that the virus has already evolved into forms that dodge the immune system a little bit. You know, they're still respond to the vaccines and vaccines all work against all of the variants. We have so far, but against some of the variants like Beta and Delta, the vaccines are a tiny bit. Less effective. And if the virus continues to evolve, and continues to become something that can really dodged the immune response that we have built up so far, then, of course, we'll need booster doses. But if that doesn't happen, if somehow we get lucky, and the virus continues to look kind of like it does now we may not need booster shots. As I mentioned before. This is focusing on the Mrna vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna. They didn't look at Johnson and Johnson. But the good news that they kind of came through all of this, too, is that it seems like Being vaccinated is almost better than the natural immunity the you know the B cells kind of adapt to broader a broader sense of the virus. More so than just getting the virus and fighting that off. Specifically, is that also what they came out through this Yeah, That's right. So immunity from natural infection is actually pretty great, and it lasts a really long time and immunity from vaccination is also great and last a long time, But the best combination so far seems to be somebody has recovered from Covid and then had a dose or two of the vaccine. But we also have some evidence that even though both kinds of immunity are good The vaccines produce immune cells that, you know, do this sort of evolving that I was talking about? And they seem better able to recognize a much broader range of genetic forms of the virus. So they'll be better about protecting us from variants. Long term A poor of Amanda Villi reporter at The New York Times. Thank you very much for joining us. Thanks for having me. Looking to the economy..

Checking In with Michelle Williams
"june" Discussed on Checking In with Michelle Williams
"Listen up. This is going to be such a fun. Episode of checking in with michelle williams. I've had a few moments with my guest. June ambrose as it relates to mental health and fashion and there was an episode that we filmed on his show she had on. Vh wild cod style. By june ambrose. I was so insecure. Because i was coming out of well. It'd been a few years. Since i was a solo artist. And no longer touring. They're singing with destiny's child. I was trying to find my style footing outside of the group. How was trying to refine. It actually couldn't refine it. Because i had to define it and june. Ambrose really really helped me with that. Will we found out that it was deeper than defining my fashion sense. We discovered so much fear in me of walking alone doing something by myself so she said to a place where it was a cia trap. He studio where i only thought that. If you're training for gymnastics or the circus that you should only be going to these types of places but going into that trap appease plays when you have to stand on the ledge. I literally burst out in tears. Because i had a revelation that i was scared to take the leap by myself. That was just a personal nugget. I'm just so thankful to june for helping me discover that once again at went beyond anything that she was going to put me in fashion wise. It went beyond anything that surge on the makeup artist was gonna do with my makeup. It went beyond any even. They dyed my hair but none of that mattered. If i was going to continue to walk around with so much fear hours just literally gonna look fierce and be fearful and wanna be fearful some just so thankful to june for helping me take that leap of faith. Now i want to welcome to my podcast. June ambrose and amazing style icon herself but she has made her clients to be celebrity style icons as well especially in the hip hop world for superstars like missy elliott and jay z. And so many more. She's also the creative director for the global brand puma. And when she's not on my podcast she's an n. b. man costume designer for some of the biggest music videos and tv shows. But let me tell you something. She's also just a fabulous friend wife and mother please welcome. I can call her my friend. Y'all please welcome june ambrose. How category. I absolutely absolutely. I really wanted to just speak on your joy. And also the psychology behind your styling. But as i was thinking of people to be on this podcast especially those that are walking their journey to have a better quality of mental health. As said june. Ambrose is always smiling. June ambrose is always full of joy and i was like i never see her in a bad mood and i just wanna know june. How do you keep your joy. It's really exhausting. To be sad it'd be sad instead of the other way around. Yeah like it's. I find that you know i. Smoke is joining that. Were on in life. The cycle we think it's as we're living but it's going very slow but it's actually going really. It's a short trip you know. We're lucky we get a hundred years. You know so. I tried to make everyday count. I try to even on my worst date on on our bed. Dang something happens that may be upsetting or disappointing. I know that it won't that you know there's always a tomorrow. Hopefully yeah if. I want there to be if there isn't gonna make this moment joyful. Yeah i just to tap. And i think since memories really help you to kind of stay happy you know when you tap back into those moments that joint like always tell people that hate taking photos if you feel awkward and uncomfortable in front of a camera tap into like sense memories and think about the feeling the emotion not about. What's in front of you but think about what's inside of you. You know that constant reminder that technique is something that takes practice so if you work on tapping into the joy. When you're in pain you'll be able to call on it even if it doesn't it doesn't sustain you for length of time. At least you know you have the ability to tap into a good feeling. You have that choice now. Some people struggle with not being able to tap into their joy. You know for for many reasons. But i recognize that is one of my superpower so i like to share it and it's just again. It's less exhausting. it's more fun being degi. Hear what she said. Did you get those nuggets. I mean because i feel like you were saying even if you are having a bad day you don't you're not gonna let it turn into your worst day and i also feel like if you're having a bad day some people will let everybody know around them that they're having a bad hair then you make everybody else have a bad day for michelle is kind of also you patient than than a man in space and i'm in creative space also working with celebrity talent and working with corporate big companies beauty brands in different scenarios and being on camera you after how to put that away and not bring that into the space right. So it's like you can't walk into a classroom day you know. You can't go on camera with a day. You have to find a way to pack away.
