Shoot us a Text.Episode #1271: January sales slid as winter storms and shrinking EV credits cooled demand. Ford's battery pullback shows how policy whiplash hits jobs fast. Amazon is going all-in on its own AI shopping agent.According to the latest NADA Market Beat: January sales came in at a 14.85M SAAR, down 4.1% year-over-year and the lowest January pace since 2024Severe winter storms affected store traffic late in the month, while EV share dipped and hybrids continued to shine.Incentives averaged $3,335 per unit (+5.6% YoY, -5.5% vs. December), landing at 6.6% of MSRP—still well below the pre-pandemic ~10% norm.Translation: OEMs and dealers still have discounting headroom if demand needs a boost.BEV share fell to 6.6% (-1.9 pts YoY) amid the absence of federal EV tax credits.Hybrids are humming right along as they climbed to a 12.6% share (+0.5 pts YoY), continuing their steady momentum.Inventory at 2.53M units, down 9.2% YoY; expected to hover there through the first half before building later in the year.NADA is forecasting a 16m SAARFord's abrupt exit from its battery JV with SK On has left 1,600 Kentucky workers jobless just months after production began. While locals are pointing fingers at Ford, the unraveling of EV tax credits and shifting policy winds added serious pressure to an already cooling EV market.Ford scrapped its multibillion-dollar SK On partnership just four months after batteries started rolling off the line in Kentucky, cutting 1,600 jobs.The elimination of the $7,500 federal EV tax credit and relaxed CAFE standards cooled demand, with Ford admitting “the operating reality has changed.”Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear blamed federal policy, saying 1,600 workers lost jobs “solely because” EV credits were eliminated.Workers like Joe Morgan say Ford misread the market, with one employee adding, “At the end of the day, whatever the government policy would be, the company made the decision.”The plant will remain open under full Ford control, pivoting to battery storage production with about 2,100 jobs—well short of the 5,000 originally promised.As AI shopping agents multiply, Amazon is betting customers will skip the middleman and stick with the retailer they already trust. CEO Andy Jassy says in-house AI will win on experience, accuracy, and loyalty—even as AI-driven retail traffic surges nearly 700% year over year.Amazon argues shoppers want four things: broad selection, low prices, fast delivery, and trust—and Jassy says retailers outperform “horizontal agents” on delivering all four.AI-driven referral traffic to retailers jumped 693% year over year during the 2025 holiday season, signaling rapid adoption of third-party tools.Jassy criticized horizontal agents, saying they lack shopJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
The legacy media is still hunting for a “moderate Democrat” like it’s a unicorn—and Jake Tapper’s latest attempt to sell Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear as the answer is painfully transparent. In this clip, Beshear dodges, the “pendulum” talking point gets exposed, and Hakeem Jeffries gets pressured by Joy Reid to go full “Abolish ICE.” The result? A brutal reminder that the Left’s base demands radicalism—and “moderate” is just branding.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the New York Times admitting it was wrong about supporting the legalization of marijuana, the slippery answers of possible presidential candidate Andy Beshear, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass facing little opposition for re-election, and a public official in desperate need of a civics lesson.First, they're pleasantly surprised to see the New York Times editorial board concede it was wrong to champion marijuana legalization while minimizing the harms of widespread weed use. Jim and Greg discuss data showing a surge in Americans using marijuana five or more times a week and how many states have effectively flipped sides in the drug war.Next, they turn to Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear's appearance on The View as he works to build national name recognition ahead of a likely 2028 presidential run. Beshear casts himself as a moderate, but Jim and Greg point to his opposition to proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration and his attempted veto of legislation banning transgender surgeries for minors. Jim explains how Democrats like Beshear try to hide behind their Republican legislatures to look moderate.Then they groan as the deadline for running for Mayor of Los Angeles has come and gone and Mayor Karen Bass looks like a heavy favorite for re-election despite her disastrous performance. Is LA a lost cause or would it ever boot a Democrat from office.Finally, they cringe as the sheriff of the largest county in North Carolina miserably fails to state how many branches of government we have and which one he is part of.Please visit our great sponsors:Upgrade your sleep with Brooklyn Bedding and get 30% off sitewide at https://BrooklynBedding.com when you use promo code 3ML at checkout.Find your way forward with BetterHelp when you sign up at https://www.BetterHelp.com/3ML to get 10% off your first month.Upgrade your wardrobe with Mizzen & Main — get 20% off your first purchase at https://MizzenandMain.com with promo code 3ML20.New episodes every weekday.

The hosts don't hold back in their assessments of potential candidates, from Spencer Cox to Andy Beshear, Ron DeSantis to Marco Rubio.Key Topics Covered:The episode dives deep into the constitutionality and practical implications of the Insurrection Act, examining its 30 previous uses throughout American history and whether current circumstances meet the threshold for its invocation. The hosts analyze the difference between peaceful protest and civil unrest, referencing everything from Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy to recent events in Minnesota and Chicago.You'll hear a fascinating debate about national security concerns, including discussion of Greenland's strategic importance, submarine movements by adversarial nations, and the balance between territorial expansion and diplomatic cooperation.

Governor Mike Braun joined Terry Meiners to discuss strategies to snare the Chicago Bears with a new stadium just across the state line in Indiana.They also discussed Indiana law enforcement working with ICE, fraudulent use of taxypayer funds in Minnesota and other states, a rebuff on redrawing congressional districts, Gov. Andy Beshear's challenges as leader of Democrat governors, and his preview of the Indiana Hoosiers in Monday's football national championship game.What's his bet with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis?As for Andy Beshear's job leading Democrats: "Andy is in a tough spot. He's got a party nationally that is run by a bunch of nuts...Schumer and Pelosi seem tame next to AOC, Jasmine Crockett, and Zohran Mamdani (now) the leadership of the Democrat party. Andy's in a tough place because he still has to kowtow with that...I don't think that dog hunts."
Andy Beshear says Kentucky's economy has “never been stronger", in his State of The Commonwealth address.Here's what he doesn't want you to do: the math.We're wasting billions in taxpayer dollars, subsidizing private employers at a cost over $200,000 per job created, while Beshear pads his economic claims with raw numbers that collapse once you adjust for inflation.When you do adjust?Matt Bevin actually had a larger economic growth year than Beshear has ever produced.That context is missing from the speech — but not from this breakdown.

Louisville got a major economic development announcement recently with the news that multinational tech giant Foxconn is opening up a facility here — but it does raise some questions.We talk about what we know — and what we don't know— on this week's Access Louisville podcast.Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and other officials announced on Tuesday, Dec. 9, that Foxconn Technology USA Corp. — the American subsidiary of Taiwan-based Foxconn Technology Co.

Mike Erre joins Phil and Skye to discuss a New York Times column by David Brooks. He says America's divisions will only heal when we abandon shallow labels and war metaphors, and instead see one another as fellow pilgrims on a journey. America's Catholic bishops issue a stern rebuke of the Trump administration's dehumanizing rhetoric and policies, which makes Phil wonder why evangelical leaders can't do the same. Then, Skye talks to Kentucky's Democratic governor, Andy Beshear, about why he's so popular in a state that Donald Trump won by 30 points, and how his party can begin to narrow the "God gap" with voters. Also this week—an A.I. vacuum cleaner has an existential crisis.
