After 15 months of a grueling war that has claimed tens of thousands of lives, Israel and Hamas agreed to phase one of a ceasefire deal on Wednesday. The agreement will create a pause in fighting that will allow critical aid to reach Gaza, and begin an exchange of hostages held in Gaza and Palestinian prisoners held by Israel. But the next phases of negotiations are expected to be more complicated — and it’s unclear if this pause in fighting will hold. On today’s Big Take podcast, Israel bureau chief Ethan Bronner and Fares Alghoul, who covers Gaza, join host Sarah Holder to discuss the details of the ceasefire deal, how it finally came together, and what lies ahead for Israel, Gaza and the region.

Over the last few decades, Israel has transformed itself from a relatively poor agrarian economy to a global startup haven. Its per capita GDP now exceeds that of France, the UK and Japan. But with Hamas' attack on Israel – which killed 1,200 people and claimed more than 200 hostages – and Israel's subsequent invasion of Gaza, that economic trajectory could be at risk.   Some 360,000 Israeli reservists were called to serve in the military in the days that followed October 7th, destabilizing Israel's workforce, while economic growth is forecast to have plummeted in the last quarter of 2023. And as Israel continues its invasion of Gaza – a war that has already claimed the lives of more than 25,000 Palestinians, according to Hamas officials –  Israel's military spending is expected to balloon. The country's just-released 2024 budget calls for $19 billion in war-related expenditures.  On today's Big Take podcast, Israelis involved in building the country's vibrant start-up ecosystem share their stories of how the aftermath of October 7th has impacted their employees and the community's operations – and Bloomberg's Galit Altstein walks us through what it could all mean for Israel's economic future.  Read more: An Isolated Israel Doubles Down on War in Gaza — At All Costs This episode was produced by: David FoxSenior Producers: Naomi Shavin and Gilda Di CarliEditors: Caitlin Kenney and Jordan FabianExecutive Producer: Sage BaumanSound Design/Engineer: Blake Maples and Alex SugiuraFact-checker: Adriana TapiaSpecial thanks to Galit Altstein and Israel bureau chief Ethan Bronner for the reporting that inspired this episode.

On today's podcast: 1) The Palestinian Authority is working with US officials on a plan to run Gaza after the ongoing war is over, with one of its top leaders arguing that Israel's aim to fully defeat Hamas is unrealistic and the militant group should instead join it under a new governing structure. 2) President Joe Biden's son Hunter was indicted on nine federal tax charges in a development that will become a political headache for the White House and Democrats as the 2024 campaign ramps up. 3) Treasury yields rose as traders pared expectations for the Federal Reserve to ease monetary policy aggressively next year after a better-than-forecast jobs report. Full Transcript: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Amy Morris. Here are the stories we're following today. This morning, we are learning the Palestinian authority is working with the US on a plan to run Gaza after the fighting ends. Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad stay I spoke with Bloomberg News. He says his preferred outcome would be to include Hamas as a junior partner in a post war administration, if they are ready to come to ground, to an agreement and really accept the political platform of the PLO, accept the tools of struggle because this is an important point of difference between us and them, and then there will be a room for talk. Otherwise it's just simply things will continue to be the same. Prime Minister Mohammad Staya also tells Bloomberg he does not believe Hamas can be eradicated by Israel. His comments are at odds with the stated aim of Israel's military campaign to wipe out the militant group following the deadly October seventh terrorist attack. The war in Gaza so far has killed more than sixteen thousand Palestinians. That's according to the Hamas run Health Ministry. Now the major legal news breaking overnight in the US that could be a new political headache for President Biden. The president's son Hunter has been indicted on nine new federal tax charges in Los Angeles. That's on top of the federal gun charges he's facing in Delaware. We get more from Bloomberg's David Voriakis. It expands on an earlier agreement in which he would have pleaded guilty in federal court in Delaware and in July and avoided prison. Under this indictment, he could theoretically be sentenced to as much as seventeen years in prison. What government alleges is, I will quote, the defendants spent this money on drugs, escorts and girlfriends, luxury hotels and rental properties, exotic cars, clothing, and other items of a personal nature. In short, everything by his taxi. Bloomberg's David Voriaki says. These new charges come as House Republicans plan to vote next week on formalizing their impeachment inquiry into President. By this latest indictment against Hunter, Biden does not offer evidence that the President benefited from or was involved in his son's activities. Also in the twenty twenty four election, Amy Republican Ron DeSantis's campaign is dealing with more disappointing news, as Bloomberg said, Baxter reports a fundraising event for the Florida governor tend to be canceled. About three thousand donors were invited to a Never Back Down super Pack lunch and to be held before this week's debate. A ten thousand dollars contribution would have given donors access to the lunch where Casey Dessentis was scheduled to speak, as well as a ticket to the debate itself, and an invite to a post debate celebration with a governor. Well, just a couple of days prior to the date, Never Back Down decided to cancel. Scott Wagner, who leads the pack, cited lack of interest. In November, a similar event raised one million dollar dollar, aed Baxter, Bloomberg Radio Right, Thank You ed Elsewhere in politics, more fallout for those IVY League presidents who struggled to denounce campus anti semitism on Capitol Hill this week. The presidents of Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania have issued statements clarifying their positions, but now investment manager Ross Stevens has withdrawn a one hundred million dollar donation that he had planned to give to Pen. Those details from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. Stevens is co founder of stone Ridge Asset Management, and he had pledged a stake in the firm to the Ivy League University to fund the Stevens Center for Innovation in Finance. According to a letter to university officials, Lawyers representing the firm said the school had violated anti discrimination and anti harassment policies it had accepted in order to become an investor in New York. Charlie Pellett Bloomberg Radio. Okay, Charlie, thank you. Turning to markets, Investors are waiting for a critical data point this morning, the November jobs report, coming ahead of next week's FED meeting, their last of twenty twenty three. Let's get a preview from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. We should be seeing signs of a slowing economy in the labor market, but economists say not just yet. The consensus forecast is November saw the pace of hiring pick up, while unemployment was unchanged. About thirty thousand jobs won't be new, they will just reflect the return of autoworkers to pay rolls after the UAW strike, but hiring in healthcare, leisure and hospitality and government should keep healthy numbers Beyond manufacturing, markets are pricing a lower than anticipated number. However, so strength could lead to higher rates as investors worry the FED may not yet be done with rate hikes. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Radio, Mike, thank you. Turning overseas, the Japanese yen has surged over the past day. Traders betting the Bank of Japan will scrap the world's last negative interest rate regime sooner than previously thought the advance

 and Balistan Liberation organ They never wanted to. Hamas wanted to take things their own way, either their way or the highway. And it seems that we are on the highway. So that is where the situation is now. As I said, whether Israel will be able to achieve what they are claiming to do, I doubt that. But on the other hand, in no way to say that you are in favor of what's happening. The suppression of Hamas ultimately needs to happen in some way if they're not going to come into the pl of if they're not going to foreswear their armed struggle and join in some international see what needs to happen with Hamas. What can you see happening? Well, I think Hamas before October seven is one thing, and Hamas after is a very good point. And so and therefore, I think if they are ready to come to ground, to an agreement and really accept the political platform of the blow, accept the tools of struggle, because this is an important point of difference between us and them, and then there will be a room for talk. Otherwise it's just simply things will continue to be the same. And even Palestinians should not be divided. We have been divided. Unfortunately, Hamas took over Gaza by force in two thousand and seven, and this should not have lasted for seventeen years. And that was the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority, Mohammed Staya, speaking with Bloomberg's Israel Bureau chief Ethan Bronner from his offices in the West Bank, and Ethan is here with us now from Tel Aviv. Much of that conversation, much of what we heard there from the Palestinian Prime Minister Ethan sounds so aspirational at this point in the war. What's it going to take to get those aspirations to become reality the day after? Well, hello, Nathan, I would say that it's going to take something superhuman. There is an incredible amount of bad things ahead. First, it's hard to imagine. I mean, there are several points here. One is that many people argue that when there is a massive catastrophe, it can become an opportunity. That terrible wars do lead to opportunities of rebuilding, and that is essentially what Prime Minister's style was trying to say. He's also repeating the Palestinie Authority on the Palestine Liberation Organization's main contentions of recent years about what needs to happen and why it hasn't happened, And one can understand that. I think the problem is that the Israelis are in complete disagreement. At least this Israeli government under Prime Minister Nitanya, who considers Staya and President Abbas to be unreliable partners. They do not want to see They do not imagine that Hamas could be reformed and come in. They want it destroyed. And also the idea that Hamas after October seventh and after this war will be more modern and more reformed, you know, in some ways as counterintuitive. In some ways, what happened on October seventh has been a revival for those who in the Palestine community who believe in armed struggle and who believe in confronting is remlitarily. So, you know, it's a lot of pie in the sky for a lot of people. But so is the Israeli perspective, which is that we're going to destroy Amas and start over with the technocratic leadership that's going to remind us of the UAE. So we have two very contradictory sets of goals and plans, and the US kind of lending a little bit of support to each side, and we'll see where this goes. Yeah, it points to the idea of mediation when you have this kind of massive gap, and this idea that the Palestinian Prime Minister said to you in this interview that the US is working with them on trying to bridge this divide. How invested do you see the US right now and the counteries, even with some of the hostage negotiations that have happened in recent weeks, What is the role of mediation with this kind of massive gap between the Palestinians and the Israelis. Well, let's leave the hostage negotiation and the countries on one side, because that's an immediate need with people whose lives are at stake at this moment, and that's been going on quite intensely. We can talk about it if you like later in terms of a mediation for the day after the war and what's going to be the future of some kind of state of Palestine and what's going to happen in the Holy Land. I mean, there's been mediation from day one, and it has not especially succeeded. You know. I think it's true that right this moment that Palestinian authority and the Israeli government are not in a position to sit down across the table and talk to one another. They have nothing but to contempt for one another, and so some outside help is needed. Now. I think the question is, you know, how much investment is an American government interested in putting in. It's not an easy task. It's not the only thing President Biden has on his agenda, and not just not just internationally but domestically. It's got an election coming up in a year, so it's a little hard to mention. What the United States has done has put together half a dozen people between State, NSC and White House who are talking to the Palestinian authority and the Israelis about this stuff. It's kind of an attempt to lay out a plan so that the day after doesn't come and we got nothing to talk about. We haven't planned anything, but it's a little bit of an act of academic theoretical work, because we don't know when this war will end, or how it will end, or what Gaza will look like. The Prime Minister also talked about Hamasa's presence outside Gaza and the West Bank, Lebanon and elsewhere. Is that a hint that this war could expand beyond Gaza? So I don't think that was his aim, but you're right that it could. I mean, we have his Belah bearing down from the north and from Lebanon on Israel, and there's always that enormous concern. The reason that the United States has sent to battle ship carriers with aircraft carriers to the Mediterranean to send a message to his belah. But I think also the point he was trying to make is that you know, even if you kill everybody who works for Hamas in Gaza, you still have leaders in Katar and in Beirut, so you know, and that it's some from within the fabric of Palestinian society, so that this is an unrealistic goal. He says. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. Look for us on your podcast feed by six am Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. You can also listen live each morning starting at five am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty in San Francisco. Our flagship New York station is also available on your Amazon Alexa devices. Just say Alexa play Bloomberg eleven thirty plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg business app, SERRIUSXM, the iHeartRadio app, and on Bloomberg dot Com. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Amy Morris. Join us again tomorrow morning for all the news you need to start your day right here on Bloomberg DaybreakSee

Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. We begin with the war in the Middle East. This is the final day of an extended six day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The Palestinian group handed over a dozen more hostages last night, ten Israelis and two citizens of Thailand. White House National Security spokesman John Kirby says he hopes the ceasefire can be extended so more Americans can be freed. I don't want to I'll give you a handicap here on this or bet nods. I can just tell you that we want to see all the hostages out. The way to do that is these pauses. My White House spokesman John Kirby spoke with reporters outside Air Force one CIA director Bill Burns is and caught her for talks about extending the ceasefire. Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln will be back in Israel later this week, and in a post on ex President Biden called for an end of the fighting. He says Hamas fears nothing more than Israelis and Palestinians living side by side in peace and now Nathan the financial world. EA is mourning and remembering the life of Charlie Munger. Munger, who helped build Berkshire Hathaway with Warren Buffett, died yesterday at the age of ninety nine, and we have more with Bloomberg's John Tucker, John and Karen with wit, wisdom and one liners. Charlie Munger served as Warren Buffett's alter ego, often telling it with brutal honesty what wouldn't work. Munger was known for steering Buffett away from purchasing what Buffett called cigar butts mediocre companies had a puff of smoke left and could be bought for very cheap prices, and instead favoring quality. A lawyer by training, Monger recalled how he was steered toward investing when I met Warren. He immediately started telling me how much better his way of making a living was than mine, and that I was too smart to stay in such a silly businesses law practice when I could go into his business of running an investment partnership. And it took me about two or three years to realize he was right. His death, Lee's Buffett without his law time sounding board for investors, maybe his most enduring legacy is Berkshire's performance under their management. Berkshire average an annual gain of twenty percent from nineteen sixty five through twenty twenty two. I'm John Tucker, Bloomberg Radio. All right, John, thanks, of course. Charlie Munger is also going to be remembered for his roles as straight man and scold of corporate excesses at Berkshire's annual meetings in Omaha. Bloomberg Intelligence Senior analyst Matthew Pallasola remembers Monger's special relationship with Warren Buffett. They're recalling individual meetings that they had, you know, forty fifty years ago, and Bussett is forgetting a couple of things, and Munger's reminding him of, well, this guy said that, and we said this, and we made this much money in these meetings. I mean it was, you know, truly a partnership for all of that time. And their interaction was just amazing. They would finished each other sentences, and Bloomberg Intelligence Senior analyst Matthew Pallasola there. Charlie Munger died yesterday at a hospital in California. He was a longtime resident of Los Angeles. Well Nathan, we turn to the market, specifically the economy now and billionaire investor Bill Ackman, who's betting the Federal Reserve will begin cutting interest rates sooner than markets are predicting. I think there's a risk of a hard landing if the FED doesn't start cutting rates, you know, pretty soon. So I think the market expects sometime middle of next year. I think it's more likely, probably as early as key one and Bill Lackman added that he's not convinced the US economy is headed for a soft landing. The billionaire investor made the comments in an upcoming episode of The David Rubinstein Show. Here to Beer Conversations on Bloomberg Television. Well Karen Bill Ackman's comments come as two of the fed's most hawkish rate setter signal they could be comfortable holding rates steady for now. Here's what FED Governor Christopher Waller told the American Enterprise Institute in Washington. I am increasingly confident the policy is currently well positioned to slow the economy and get inflation back to two percent. Chris Waller's view as echoed by a fellow FED governor, Michelle Bowman, who said she remains willing to support great hikes if inflation progress stalls, but she did stop short of endorsing an increase next month. Well. In Washington, Nathan, the House of Representatives may be voting on whether to expel George Santos today or tomorrow, and Bloomberg's Ed Baxter has that story. Motions in the House have been formally introduced, saying ethics findings violate the accepted policies of the body. Now, many of those members who voted against the first one November one, are saying they will vote to expel now, and Santos has responded saying the body is just theater. I went to San Diego last week. It is terrible, terrible. That's what we should be putting our energy on, not on censuring one another, expelling one another, which hunts against the political class. Nobody cares. Congress has forty eight hours to act under the resolution. Ed Baxter Bloomberg Radio, Okay and thank you. President Biden won't be there, but Vice President Kamala Harris this is attending the COP twenty eighth Climate Summit in Dubai. We get details from Bloomberg's Amy Morris. Harris will join Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln and other US officials at the two week event that begins tomorrow. She is expected to address the summit this week. Formal negotiations at COP twenty eight will center on the response to warnings that countries are falling short and cutting their emissions, and possible commitments to phase down fossil fuels in Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio. All Right, Amy, thanks for the Incorporate news and a surprise memo. Jack ma urged Ali Baba Group to correct course civilionaire call for fundamental change across the company he co founded decades ago. Ma has mostly stayed away from day to day operations since twenty twenty, and Ali Baba wants China's best candidate to become a trillion dollar company is trading at a fraction of its peak in twenty twenty. Time now for a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. For that, we're joined by Bloomberg's Amy Morris. Good morning, Good morning, Karen. Congressional negotiators are reportedly ready to drop plans to use the annual defense policy build of Titan controls on US investment in Chinese technology. Sourses tell Bloomberg that House Financial Services Chairman Patrick McHenry is effectively blocking a measure that would require firms to notify the government about certain investments in China and other countries of concern. The Biden administration meanwhile getting pushedback from auto dealers on those mandates for switching over to electric vehicle production. Bloomberg's Nancy Llons has that part of the story. The mandate calls for two out of every three vehicles sold in the US by twenty thirty two be battery electric, but nearly four thousand auto dealers, who are calling themselves EV Voice of the Customer say most car buyers, even with incentives, are disinterested in the technology due to the higher cost, the lack of charging stations, and the loss of driving range and hot and cold weather. The dealers are asking President Biden to slow down and let the battery technology and infrastructure improve before forcing EV purchases. The White House says the proposed standards are not a mandate and do not ban gas vehicles in Washington, Nancy Lyons Bloomberg Radio Republican Congressman Anthony Disposedesposito made a motion on the House floor to force a vote on House Ethics Committee Chairman Michael Guests resolution that would expel Congressman George Santos. Minutes later, Santos took to the House floor himself to defiantly say he will not resign. Are we to now assume that one is no longer innocent until proven guilty, and they are in fact guilty until proven innocent, Or are we now to simply assume that because somebody doesn't like you, they get to throw you out of your job. The House Ethics Committee report alleged Santos used campaign cash to pay for personal expenses. He's also facing federal charges. A US military Osprey aircraft carrying eight people as crashed into the sea off southern Japan. The Japanese Coast Guard is heading to the site for search and rescue operations. Host Guard official says they don't have details yet about what happened to the osprey nor to the people on board. He says the Coastguard received an emergency call from a fishing boat near the crash site off Yakushima. The osprey was believed to be heading to Okinawa. Global News twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Maybe Morris and this is Bloomberg Karen. All right, Amy, thank you well. We do bring you news throughout the day right here on Bloomberg Radio. As Amy said, but now you can get the latest news on demand whenever you want it. You can just subscribe to Bloomberg News Now to get the latest headlines at the click of a button. Get informed on your schedule. You can listen and subscribe to Bloomberg News Now on the Bloomberg Business app, Bloomberg dot Com plus Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update, here's John stash Hour John Darren. The NBA started this season with an in season tournament to drum up some interest early in the regular season, taking a page out of what you see in European soccer. Last night they determined which eight teams are advancing to the knockout round next Monday. In the East, Boston will play at Indiana, and then on Tuesday it's the Knicks in Milwaukee. Monday in the West, New Orleans and Sacramento, followed the night later by Phoenix at the Lakers. The winners will advance in the semifinals December seventh in Las Vegas, with the championship on December ninth. Minnesota

e they let this go forward. What do we know about the hostage releases that are expected today, Well, we know that these rulis have been given another list of ten. Again, only women and children have been and gate involved in these exchanges so far, and I expect there'll be more women and children in the next day or two. Then the question is would they get to some men, some soldiers and that's I think a more difficult thing. So far, it's been three Israeli three prisoners Palston prisoners for each hostage. That may have to change. Yeah, we do know that there have been talks underway and caught her with the CIA director Bill Burns to potentially get that ceasefire and hostage deal extended beyond women and children, something else for us to follow. And no, we will be doing that as well. Ethan Bronner, thank you so much for being with us this morning. Ethan Bronner, Israel bureau chief for Bloomberg News, joining us this morning from Tel Aviv. And now we want to bring you our conversation with the founder and CEO of Pershing Square Capital, Bill Ackman. He says the Fed's going to cut rates sooner than many of us expect. Bill Ackman joined Bloomberg's David Rubinstein for peer to peer conversations. They discuss the FED, the outlook for the US economy, and the twenty twenty four presidential elections. So let's bring you part of that conversation right now. I do think the economy is weakening. We're seeing evidence of that in some of our companies. You're seeing I have some concerns. There's been a huge subsidy in terms of low interest rates and companies. Most companies fix their rates or their debt at very low rates, and certainly real estate investors did the same. And that works until it doesn't work, And so I think we're what's going to be interesting is to see what happens when people get have to reprice their debt, and I think that can have sort of a cliff like effect, and you're certainly seeing that in real estate now. The markets are assuming, and the markets are not always right, but the markets are assuming that there's going to be a FED discount cut sometime next year. As we talk now just about the end of November. It's not clear what the Fed will do. But some people say that the Fed, if they were to cut interest rates next year year, would help the Democrats and therefore be seen as very political. The other hand, some people say the Fed can't wait till after the election because the economy might need a stimulus. So you have a view on what the Fed is likely to do. I think they're gonna cut rates, and you know, I think they're gonna cut rates sooner than people expect, because you know, what's happening is the real rate of interest ultimately, which is what impacts the economy, keeps increasing as inflation declines. Right, So if the FED keeps rates in the sort of middle fives and inflation is you know, trending below three percent or you know, that's a very high real rate of interest, and I think that is having a sort of retarding effect on the economy. And then of course, again you know, many businesses and certainly many individuals have the benefit of fixed rate debt, and that fixed rate debt, certainly for companies and for commercial real estate, starts to roll off. So I think there's a risk of a hard landing if the FED doesn't start cutting rates, you know, pretty soon. So you know, I think the market expects sometime middle of next year. I think it's more likely probably as early as key one by its own and miss and the FED probably missed inflation initially they said it was transitory, but they played catch up and they've increased rates considerably since that time. Do you think the FED made a mistake in not handling inflation differently at the beginning, And how do you think they've done since they started increasing interest rates? They certainly made a mistake. I mean, I think they would have FED generally as an institution, would admit that. I think that they caught up and effectively. So you give them credit for acknowledging the mistake and being pretty aggressive. And then I think, you know, you want to make sure that they're you know, German Powell's desire not to have a legacy of causing or contributing to long term inflation, doesn't, you know, cause them to make the opposite mistake, I mean, keep rates too high for too long, and I think the market expectation is you know, called it middle of next year, July something like this for the beginnings of easing. I think the economy will likely demand an earlier move. And I don't think of the FED as a or at least this FED, a particularly political institution. I think they're really trying to do the right thing. President Biden has called his economic program biden Nomics, which has met some derision in Republican circles. You've been an active supporter of Democrats, I think more than Republicans. Is that right? I would say historically I have you know, I would say today I certainly consider myself and have for years now a centrist, okay, and I'm much more open to Republican candidates that I am to re electing President Biden. So I you know, you would say otherwise. You know, again, I want to elect the best leader of the country, whether that person is a Republican or a Democrat. But you haven't publicly said you're supporting President Trump if he's the nominee. Ye. I've been supportive of you know, I've been supportive of Nikki Haley. I've been supportive of Chris Christy, I know, the vag Ramswani and I was, you know, pre his launch of his candidacy, I was, uh, you know, supportive of his having a young, smart, talented, uh you know, business leader as a next president. He's just been a little too far off, too far to the right, and also been disappointed a bit with his you know, geopolitics and how he's thinking about dealing with some of the wars that we find ourselves in the midst of today for the economy itself. Do you think it really is going to make a difference if President Trump is if he's the Republican nominee it gets selected, or President Biden is the Democratic nominee he's selected, who either one. Would it make a big difference for the economy in the next year or so if either one is the president or the economy is going to do what it's going to do. You know, I do think leadership matters enormously in everything from the economy to geopolitics, and I hope we're going to have a broader selection than Trump and Biden. There's actually an interesting candidate who just announced his candidacy on the Democratic side that I would say, no one has heard of a congressman named Dean Phillips. You probably have heard of him, may know him. Met with him recently. I was impressed. I think the best I think Biden done a lot of good things, but I think his legacy will not be a good one if he if he is the nominee, I do think the right thing for Biden to do is to step aside and to say he's not going to run and create the opportunity for some competition of alternative Do you think that I think that I think he's past his prime in kind of meaningful way. I think the global security, I would say, and is going to become a very high profile issue for I think the country. I think people are concerned about what's going on in terms of Russia, Ukraine, you know, the Israel Hamas situation. You know, Russia and China are pretty belligerent today. Our relationships are not good. So I think you know, you, I do think of It's a bit like being CEO of a major company. It's a it's a it's a full time job, and you need to be at your you know, you need to be strong, you need to be at your intellectual best. And I don't think Biden is there. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. Look for us on your podcast feed at six am Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. You can also listen live each morning starting at five am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg ninety sixty in San Francisco. Our flagship New York station is also available on your Amazon Alexa devices. Just say Alexa Play Bloomberg eleven thirty plus. Listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app, seriusxmb iHeartRadio app, and on Bloomberg dot Com. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Join us again tomorrow morning for all the news you need to start your day right here on Bloomberg DaybreakSee

In 2006, students were given a reporter’s view of the Iraq war from internationally acclaimed journalist Ethan Bronner‚ who provided them with an understanding of the conflict they cannot get from the nightly news. “The Iraqi conflict is a very hard story to cover‚ yet it’s the biggest one today‚” said Bronner‚ deputy foreign editor of the New York Times. “Every foreign reporter has to take two realms and skillfully combine them for readers to understand. For example‚ the Iraqis are very different from us‚ yet they are still similar. They love their children‚ too‚ and care about the same things we care about.” Bronner‚ whose speech was titled “War and Terror: How The New York Times Covers Today’s Big Global Conflicts‚” has covered foreign affairs in places such as Jerusalem‚ London‚ Madrid and Brussels for most of his 26−year career. Sponsored by AASCU in collaboration with The New York Times‚ the American Democracy Project aims to produce graduates who understand and are committed to engaging in meaningful actions as citizens in a democracy.
