Over the course of his long and successful career, David Stockman has been both a Washington DC AND Wall Street insider.He was the youngest serving cabinet member of the 20th century (heading the Office of Management & Budget under Reagan), served as a US State Representative, and was an early member of Blackstone.So he knows better than most people alive how our political, economic and financial systems work.Which is why we should listen closely when he talks of our current runaway deficit spending and mountain of public & private debt and concludes "this won't end well".To hear his informed reasons why, watch this video.#deficit #debtcrisis #federalreserve 0:00 - Federal Debt Crisis Overview7:05 - Critique of the “One Big Beautiful Bill”14:05 - End of Central Bank Absorption19:33 - Inflation as a Limiter24:04 - Response to Administration's Growth Strategy33:25 - Political Pendulum and Progressive Policies37:24 - Potential Debate with Art Laffer47:02 - Investment Themes for a Turbulent Future50:03 - George H.W.

Immigration. It's a topic that ignites passion, confusion, and often division. These days, the word “immigrant” can split a room in half and not always politely. 

But here's the truth: whether documented or undocumented, immigrants have always been part of the American story. They've built railroads, harvested crops, launched companies, cared for families—not just their own—and they've done all this while paying billions in taxes.ImmigrationNation of immigrantsTimeline of immigration policyWho benefits from all these immigration reforms?Today's undocumented labor.How the US benefited from immigrants.How to Fix it?Want to adopt my foster puppy?

Nanette Abuhoff Jacobson, global investments strategist for the Hartford Funds, says that uncertainty, by itself, hasn't derailed global markets and slowed growth, but that it could be starting to happen now with signs that there has been a lag time impacting tariff impacts and that core prices are starting to rise. Jacobson says that U.S. investors have become "complacent and they're pricing in a bit of a Goldilocks scenario;" she is still positive on equities, but she is underweight U.S. stocks and overweight emerging markets, Europe and Japan.Michael Gayed, portfolio manager of the new Free Markets ETF — as well as the ATAC Funds — discusses how deregulation policies will benefit certain industries and businesses and how reduced compliance and other regulatory costs will result in bigger profits and more capital expenditures, and will particularly benefit small-cap stocks. Plus, Jesse Abercrombie discusses Edward Jones' "Pulse of North America" survey — conducted at the height of April's post-tariff announcement market volatility — which showed that nearly three-quarters of Americans are optimistic about their ability to live a "financially fulfilled life" despite current, ongoing volatility concerns.

Utah is not for sale! Especially not to foreign adversaries, but that didn't stop them from trying to buy strategically important land in Provo.. Representative Candice Pierucci the show to discuss the   concern surrounding these types of sales.

We begin by noting how allowing states to enforce immigration laws is the most important proposition to stake out our future. This will allow us to ensure that there are still portions of America that remain American. Sadly, the focus from Congress and the White House this week is on meme coins and AI data centers. Next, we're joined by Shannon Everrett, founder of American Truckers United, who has created a grassroots movement to warn about the flood of foreign truck drivers taking over the industry. This is both a labor and safety concern. They are driving down wages and supplanting the American trucker, but at the same time, many are not proficient in English and did not undergo the proper training. Shannon is pushing legislation to bar the recognition of non-domiciled commercial driver's licenses for noncitizens and certainly the recognition of truck drivers who are here illegally or on tourist visas.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Foreign correspondent Seamus Kearney talks about commemorations in Bosnia-Herzegovina to mark 30 years since the Srebrenica massacre.

Investors appear just blind to risk at this point.Portfolio manager Lance Roberts says he hasn't seen this high degree of speculation in the markets since 1999.At some point, the chickens will likely come back to roost. But in the near term, the essential question investors need to address is: How much higher will the rally continue?Lance and I discuss the odds, as well as what to expect from the start of Q2 earnings season, whether the Fed will cut soon and if that will be a "sell the news event". As always, we close by discussing Lance's firm's latest trades.For everything the mattered to markets this week, watch this video.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

As human beings, we are often very protective of our own sense of personal justice – and injustice.   When I was a child, I had a teacher who – to me – seemed very unfair. If one of the kids in the class did something like write a bad word on the chalkboard, she would ask the entire class who did it. She really did her best to find the culprit, and carry out punishment.   But sometimes she just couldn't figure it out. No one would admit it, and there wasn't enough evidence to pin it on any specific student.   So her solution was – the whole class loses recess for the whole day. Definitely not fair! It always bugged me when that happened – I was being punished even though I hadn't done anything wrong.   My guest today, Scott, was also a victim of injustice, but on a much larger scale. He was charged with a crime that he didn't commit, and was held in a foreign jail for far too long. This is one of those stories where you just can't predict what's coming next.   And if you're an American, it might just make you think twice before traveling outside the US.     If you'd like to contact Scott:  thescottmcmahonstory@outlook.com   Full show notes and pictures for this episode are here: https://WhatWasThatLike.com/222   Graphics for this episode by Bob Bretz.

David Waldman stares into the abyss of our next Trump weekend, but first, screams into the void of Trump Friday. Distinguished Professor and author Ian Reifowitz returns to KITM discuss his BRAND-NEW BOOK, “Riling Up the Base: Examining Trump's Use of Stereotypes through an Interdisciplinary Lens.”  Buy this book, and not only will you be the hippest person on your beach, but you will also gain a thorough understanding of how Trump's use of stereotypes relating to immigration, race/ethnicity, and gender somehow keeps that jerk in power. Ian also argues that Democrats have drifted from Obama's unifying vision of America and need to reclaim Obama's inclusive, aspirational message to win again. Tom Homan reminds us that the less you look like Tom Homan, the higher your chance of having many bad things happen to you in the United States. With AI, you can look like anyone and say anything. Foreign leaders are under the mistaken impression that as long as their lips remain on Donald K. Trump's ass, they're safe. To Vietnam's surprise, Donald informed them they hadn't used enough tongue.

We open with a discussion on Cleveland's professional basketball situation and we end up going hard on it for a stretch so be ready. Ohio devises a new tax to pay for the new Browns Stadium only they don't call it a tax so that must mean it's not a tax, right?

For over 250 years the United States and the United Kingdom has shared a special relationship. While not always positive... for example the British burning down the White House during the War of 1812 (thanks a lot)... the past 150 years has been very positive. Throughout it all the shared people-to-people connections have driven the relationship to new heights and provided a solid footing for collaboration across all sectors. With the recent signing of the US-UK Economic Prosperity Deal, and the ensuing steps to implement the outline, the economic relationship is set to continue. In this month's episode, we check in with British Consul General in Boston, David Clay, to dive deeper into the current state of relations between the two countries. On the eve of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence (next year), now is a great time to assess the history and the future of the transatlantic partnership, from the economic, to military, to cultural ties that bind these two countries together. No matter the challenges that face the world in the years to come, it seems that a strong relationship will remain a steadfast point in global affairs.David Clay has been a member of the Diplomatic Service since 2005, and has been appointed as the next British Consul General to New England. David was joint head of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office Iraq and Arabian Peninsula Department.

Episode 4621: Demanding And Unseal The Epstein Files; Sealing Our Borders From Foreign Cattle

Well, now that President Trump has set into motion the main pillars of his economic policy -- trade reform, tax cuts and deregulation -- what should we expect from here?I can think of few better people to hear from on this topic than today's guest, who is one of the key economic advisors to President Trump and his cabinet membersToday, we're fortunate to welcome back to the program economist Dr Arthur Laffer. He was the first to hold the title of Chief Economist at the Office of Management and Budget in the early 1970s. He then later served as a member of President Reagan's Economic Policy Advisory Board. He's perhaps best known for developing the Laffer curve, a model for determining the optimal balance between tax revenues and economic growth.WORRIED ABOUT THE MARKET?

This comprehensive analysis exposes what hosts describe as an alarming surge of far-left extremism targeting ICE agents, law enforcement, and political figures. Across multiple incidents—including assassination attempts, embassies attacked, and violent riots—they argue that Democratic leaders have not only failed to condemn the violence but have enacted policies that endanger federal agents. The discussion links these attacks to foreign influence, especially Iranian and Chinese funding, suggesting an unprecedented threat from adversaries exploiting America's internal divisions. From unmasking ICE officers to threats against Trump and infiltration by radical networks, the segments paint a picture of escalating guerrilla warfare and warn of profound national security consequences if this convergence of domestic extremism and foreign interests remains unchallenged.

Episode Summary: In this episode, Ann addresses a compelling question from Habiba, a Pakistan-based paralegal looking to transition to working for the U.S. legal market remotely. Ann explores the challenges foreign-trained legal professionals face when seeking remote paralegal roles in the United States. This candid discussion touches on the nuances of U.S. legal requirements and the limitations faced by professionals without U.S. based education. Ann provides a thorough analysis of why remote paralegal job listings are typically reserved for U.S.-based individuals familiar with the specific civil procedures and legal frameworks of individual states. As she delves into the intricacies of the profession, Ann emphasizes the necessity of obtaining U.S.-specific qualifications and warns against disreputable outsourcing companies that undervalue skilled labor.  Key Takeaways: U.S. remote paralegal jobs require knowledge of federal and state-specific legal procedures, typically demanding U.S.-based education and experience. Foreign-trained legal professionals may need to pursue U.S.-accredited education to access domestic paralegal opportunities. Outsourcing companies may exploit international legal workers, offering lower wages than standard U.S. paralegal salaries. Ann highlights the importance of being cautious about job offers that may undervalue skills due to geographical differences. A clear understanding of career goals and market requirements is essential for international legal professionals aiming to work in the U.S. Get more free paralegal resources:  https://paralegal-bootcamp.com/paralegal-resources  For all of our paralegal podcast episodes: https://paralegal-bootcamp.com/paralegals-on-fire-podcast

On June 13th, Israel launched attacks on several military and nuclear facilities in Iran, marking the beginning of a 12-day war between the two countries. The United States followed with targeted strikes on Iranian nuclear sites to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power and posing a threat to regional and global stability. China's involvement in the conflict was limited to condemning the Israeli and US use of military force and calling for de-escalation. Beijing offered only rhetorical support for Tehran. To discuss what the Israel-Iran war reveals about China's relationship with Iran, its evolving strategy in the Middle East, and the broader implications for US-China competition, we are joined by Yun Sun on the podcast today. Yun is a Senior Fellow, co-Director of the East Asia Program and Director of the China Program at the Stimson Center. Her recent piece in The Wire China entitled “How China Sees Iran's Future” offers provides a nuanced take on Beijing's calculus during and after the war. Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:34] China's Diplomatic Strategy Toward the Middle East[05:00] A Limited Chinese Response and China's Regional Role[08:19] Chinese Perceptions of Iran's External Strategic Blunders[15:00] Trickling Chinese Investment into Iran[20:10] Chinese Concerns About a Nuclearized Iran[25:09] Implications of the Israel-Iran War for China's Energy Security[32:04] Trump's Response Shaping Chinese Views of the United States

I know some of you are tired of hearing about Bitcoin and digital currencies. That's not what this week's show is about. This week's podcast conversation is broader—it touches the entire global economy. But…you just can't talk about macroeconomic trends anymore without talking about digital dollars and Bitcoin. Leaving them out today would be like ignoring gold when discussing commodities. There's a section this week in my interview with Ian Reynolds that dives deep into the bond market and the growing influence of stablecoins. And I realized—it might be helpful to give you a bit of context up front. If you're already familiar, consider this a refresher. If not, this will make the second half of our conversation a lot more useful. Let's start with the 10-year U.S. Treasury—arguably the most important interest rate in the world. This one number influences everything from mortgage rates to stock valuations to how much it costs the government to borrow money. Historically, when inflation drops, yields on the 10-year tend to fall as well. That's the standard relationship: lower inflation usually leads to lower yields. But that's not what's happening right now. Despite a year of cooling inflation, the 10-year Treasury yield has stayed surprisingly high. Why? The answer boils down to supply and demand. On the supply side, the U.S. government is flooding the market with Treasuries—over a trillion dollars' worth every quarter—to finance its growing deficits. That's a lot of new bonds entering the market. At the same time, demand isn't keeping up. Foreign central banks like China and Japan, which used to be some of the biggest buyers of our debt, are pulling back. Some are dealing with their own domestic issues. Others are deliberately reducing their exposure to the dollar as a reaction to U.S. foreign policy over the past year. So: more supply, less demand—what happens? Bond prices go down, resulting in higher yields for bond investors. That, in turn, means higher borrowing costs for everyone—including the U.S. government, businesses, and consumers. That's why, even with inflation falling, the 10-year hasn't followed the script. But here's where things get interesting. A new kind of buyer has started stepping in: stablecoin issuers. Stablecoins—like USDC and Tether—are digital tokens pegged to the U.S. dollar. They've become essential plumbing for the crypto economy, but their growth is increasingly relevant to the broader financial system. Why? Because in order to maintain their dollar peg, these companies need to back their coins with something stable—and that “something” is often short-term U.S. Treasuries. It turns out, that's a great business to be in. These stablecoin issuers collect real dollars, turn around, and invest them in T-bills yielding 5% or more. That spread—between what they earn and what they pay out—is pure profit. It's essentially a 21st-century version of a money market fund, just running on blockchain. And it's growing fast. Tether now holds more Treasuries than countries like Australia or Mexico. BlackRock has launched a tokenized Treasury fund that already has nearly $3 billion under management. And just this week, Mastercard announced that it's integrating USDC and other stablecoins for cross-border settlement. In other words, this isn't fringe anymore. It's moved into the mainstream, and it's growing quickly. Even lawmakers are catching up. Just this month, the U.S. Senate passed the GENIUS Act, a bipartisan bill that sets clear regulatory guidelines for stablecoins. It requires full backing by liquid assets—like Treasuries—and regular public disclosures. It's now headed to the House, and while not law yet, the momentum is clearly there. The takeaway? Regulatory clarity is coming, and that opens the door for large institutions, payment processors, and even governments to scale up stablecoin usage with confidence. So why does this matter for bond yields?
