This week on CounterSpin: The New York Times says that Amnesty International recently became “the first major international human rights organization to accuse Israel of carrying out genocide in Gaza.” That makes sense if you ignore the other human rights groups and international bodies that have said Israel's actions in the wake of Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023 meet that definition. The Times account notes that genocide is hard to prove because it involves showing the specific intent to destroy a group, “in whole or in part” — something that, they say, Israeli leaders have persistently denied is their intent in Gaza. Declarations like that by Israeli President Isaac Herzog that “it is an entire nation out there that is responsible” appear nowhere in the piece. The Times tells readers that Amnesty's “contention” and “similar allegations” have been “at the heart of difficult debates about the war around the world.” So far, 14 countries have joined or signaled they will join South Africa's genocide case against Israel in the World Court. Gallup polling from March found that the majority of the U.S. public — 55%, up from 45% last November — say they disapprove of Israel's siege of Gaza. And that support for Israel is dropping among all political affiliations. A May survey from a private Israeli think tank says nearly a third of Jewish people in the U.S. agree with the charge of “genocide,” and 34% view college campus protests as anti-war and pro-peace, compared with 28% who see them as primarily “anti-Israel.” More recently, the Israel Democracy Institute reports its survey from late November, finding that the majority of Jews in Israel — 52% — oppose settlement in Gaza, while 42% express support. There is absolutely debate around the world about Israel's actions; outlets like the Times make that debate more “difficult” by misrepresenting it. While not the first to ask us to see the assault on Palestinians as genocide, Amnesty's report offers an opening, for those journalists who are interested, to ask why some are so invested in saying it isn't. Iman Abid is the director of advocacy and organizing at the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR). We talk with her today. Plus Janine Jackson takes a quick look at recent press coverage of the minimum wage.   The post Iman Abid on Israeli Genocide appeared first on KPFA.

*) Powerful Turkish defence can stop Israel's war on Palestinians: Erdogan Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that Türkiye would prevent Israel's brutal attacks on Palestinians in the event of Ankara being “very strong” in the defence industry. Speaking in his hometown in the northeastern province of Rize, the Turkish president emphasised Türkiye's advancements in the defence industry and expressed confidence in further progress.

We just need to be strong so that we can take these steps.” *) UK's Starmer urges Israel to take steps towards Gaza ceasefire British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has told Israeli President Isaac Herzog there needed to be “immediate steps” towards a ceasefire in Israel's war on Gaza. “The Prime Minister said there must be immediate steps towards a ceasefire, so that hostages can be released and more humanitarian aid can get in for those in desperate need,” Starmer's office said in a statement. *) Venezuela's Maduro wins re-election with 51.2% of vote: electoral council Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro has won re-election to a third six-year term with 51.2 percent of votes cast Sunday, the electoral council announced.

Piers Morgan speaks to Israeli President Isaac Herzog as the shadow of war continues to darken the Middle East. President Herzog reacts to the news that Ireland, Norway and Spain will officially recognise the state of Palestine by the end of this month, calling it a "futile step" that "won't help" Palestinians. He also comments on the recent death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, claiming they are not celebrating in Israel - but makes the point that the UN mourning his death illustrates the ‘rotting of the institution'.

Today, Shireen shares with us the recent court ruling from the case brought to the International Court of Justice by South Africa against Israel. Script: Hello everyone, and welcome back to another episode of Seeking Refuge News. I'm Shireen Kaur, and today we will be discussing the recent court ruling from the International Court of Justice, or the ICJ, regarding the genocidal actions committed by Israel in Palestine. For context, South Africa brought Israel to the ICJ on December 29th, 2023, accusing Israel of intending to commit a genocide against the people of Palestine. In this 84 page document, it was argued that Israel's action in Gaza intended to destroy “a substantial part of the Palestinian national, racial, and ethnic group.” This is a direct violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention, says foreignpolicy.com. One of South Africa's lawyers, Tembeka Ngcukaitobi, stated, “The intent to destroy Gaza has been nurtured at the highest level of state.” Within this filing, South Africa lists eight actions against Palestinians in Gaza that are genocidal in nature. (Foreignpolicy.com) (1) Killing Palestinians, including children, in large numbers, (2) Causing serious bodily and mental harm to Palestinians, including children, and inflicting on them conditions of life intended to bring about their destruction as a group, (3) Causing mass displacement and expulsion of Palestinians from their homes, alongside the large-scale destruction of homes and residential areas, (4) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate food and water, (5) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate medical care, (6) Depriving Palestinians of access to adequate shelter, clothes, hygiene, and sanitation, (7) Causing destruction of life for the Palestinian people, (8) Imposing measures intended to prevent Palestinian births.    Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned South Africa's allegations on Tuesday, calling them “atrocious and preposterous. Israel is expected to argue this on Friday. The Israeli Foreign Ministry has already written, “Israel is at war with Hamas, not with the people of Gaza…it is committed to conducting its operations in accordance with international law … and wishes no harm to Palestinian civilians anywhere.”  On January 26th, however, the ICJ has found it is "plausible" that Israel has committed acts that violate the Genocide Convention and that they must ensure “with immediate effect” that Israeli forces do not commit any of these acts, according to NPR. Additionally, the court voted 15-2 that Israel must take all measures to stop anything in relation to genocide in Gaza, and voted 16-1 that Israel must prevent and punish those involved with inciting genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza strip. (NPR) Another 16-1 vote ensured the provision of “urgently needed humanitarian aid and basic services.” Israel has now received 30 days to report back on the measures that they have been told to move forward taking. Benjamin Netanyahu does not find this ruling appealing, saying, “LIke every country, Israel has an inherent right to defend itself.” He goes on to reject the ruling, “The vile attempt to deny Israel this fundamental right is blatant discrimination against the Jewish state, and it was justly rejected... We will continue to do what is necessary to defend our country and defend our people." Considering this is the second time a state has ever tried to litigate the charge of genocide to another state (the first time against, Myanmar, who promptly ignored the ruling), there are many uncertainties to how this ruling will be enforced, or if it will be at all.  Considering that the United States is Israel's closest ally, they would likely veto any attempt to impose sanctions at the U.N. Security Council. This, however, could come at the cost of international goodwill and possibly economic sanctions from individual states, according to NBC news. The United States has repeatedly reiterated its stance that the accusations against Israel are unfounded. Washington's own calls for the minimization of civilian harm and increasing humanitarian assistance are consistent with Friday's ruling. NBC further states, “The U.S. recognizes that the court plays a vital role in the peaceful settlement of disputes,” and a State Department spokesperson said, “we will continue to monitor this proceeding as it moves forward.” Of course, the U.S. government's history of support for Israel makes any intervention or “peaceful settlements” unlikely.  Here in the U.S., there are groups combating the governments role in Israel genocide. TIME stated on January 25th that a federal court case has been filed against President Biden and two U.S. cabinet officials for “allegedly being complicit in Israel's genocide against Gazans.” This was filed by Palestinian human rights groups and the nonprofit Center for Constitutional Rights. TIME said, “Defense for Children International-Palestine v. Biden seeks to stop the U.S. from supporting Israel, which plaintiffs say has cost them the lives of family members, and will be heard in Oakland California.

Full Transcript: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. We begin in Washington. That's where a temporary spending bill to avoid a government shutdown this weekend has cleared its first hurdle. Bloomberg's Amy Morris has more from the nation's capital. The Senate voted to advance the measure that will fund some federal agencies through March first and others through March eighth. The interim funding is the support of congressional leaders, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, so the prospects for passage in both chambers are good. Does not include several disputed items like eight for Ukraine restrictions along the US border or an eighty billion dollar business tax package. And there are hard right conservatives in the House who oppose funding agencies at current levels, but Speaker Johnson can bypass them by relying on Democrats for support. In Washington. Amy Moore as Bloomberg Radio. All right, Amy, thanks well. Now to the latest on the race for the White House. It's on to New Hampshire for the Republican candidates, and Bloomberg's at Baxter reports are really starting to heat up. Nicki Haley has been very careful not to directly attack Donald Trump, but one day after Iowa as she's calling him a bully and a liar. Trump lamb based Haley as a disaster. Now this all comes with polling that chowse the two very close. In New Hampshire, Real Clear Politics has Trump by about fourteen points, but the American Research Group even called it dead even at forty four percent, with Ron Desatus at only four percent. Tomorrow's schedule debate has been canceled because Haley declined if Trump wasn't going to be there at Baxter Bloomberg Radio, Okay, and thanks. Now let's turn to the Middle East. Israel and Hamas have reached a deal to deliver medicine and other aid to Gaza. That's according to the government in Kadra, which says this is in exchange for medicine reaching the hostages being held by Hamas. White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan says there is still a risk this war widens to a regional conflict. We do see a pathway to a shift in the military campaign in Gaza, a reduction in tensions and the exchange of fire along Israel's northern border, a reduction in the risk of escalation in other parts of the region, and we'll have to continue to deal with the Hoothi threat. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan spoke from the World Economic Forum in Davos. Israeli President Isaac Herzog plans to bring the families of hostages to the slopes in Switzerland today to step up pressure for their release. Well, Nathan, back here in the US, we are waiting for a key economic group board as doubt grows on whether the FED will start cutting rates as soon as March, and we get the very latest with the Bloomberg's John Tucker, John and Karen. Retail sales probably increased in December. However, the control group sales, which strip out volatile items, that likely slowed to a more subdue pace. Traders are launching on every piece of data as the FAN enters a blackout period next week. Yesterday, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller threw a little cold water around the idea of FED rate cuts as soon as March. With economic activity and labor markets in good shape, and inflation coming down gradually to two percent, I see no reason to move as quickly or cut as rapidly as in the past. With Wallner's comments, Transury suffered their biggest one day price drop in two months. Yield Seweragetan also drag stocks lower. John Tucker Bloomberg Radio, John thanks, rates are very much in focus overseas that the World Economic Forum. European Central Bank President Christine Legard said the ECB will probably cut rates by the summer. I would say it's likely too, but I have to be reserved because we're also saying that we are data dependent and that there is still a level of uncertainty and some indicators that are not anchored at the level where we would love to see them. ECB President Leaguard made those comments to Francine Lockwha at Bloomberg House in Davos. You can hear their full conversation on the Bloomberg Talks podcast. Well Nathan investors are scaling back their expectations for rake cuts from the Bank of England this year. Inflation in the UK unexpectedly accelerated for the first time in ten months. December's consumer price index was four percent higher than the previous year. On Wall Street, Karen JP Morgan Chase is bucking a trend, the bank plans to hire more workers. We caught up with JP Morgan president Daniel Pinto at Davos. We are employed at the end of the year around three hundred and twenty thousand people. So the number of people that employ has been growing and not ranking. So I think that where we see opportunities and we can have our clients, for sure, we'll focus on that. Daniel Pinto's comments come after JP Morgan closed out the most profitable year in US banking history. Also more banking news this morning, Nathan, the government is unveiling a long awaited rule that could slash the biggest bank's income from overdraft fees by as much as three and a half billion dollars each year. Under the regulation from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, banks would only be able to charge what it costs for them to break even for covering an overdraft or a bu by a specific cap that would effectively eliminate overdraft charges for customers, which right now average about thirty five dollars. Let's turn to some corporate news now. Karen Apple has reached a milestone. The company's dethroned Samsung to become the world's top phone maker in twenty twenty twenty three. IDC estimates the iPhone accounted for a fifth of the global market last year with close to two hundred thirty five million shipments. Apple's dominated recent holiday quarters, but the full year surge is unprecedented, and it suggests Apple is weathering an industry wide slump better than its rivals. And finally, Nathan, it was supposed to be the merger from Heaven, or at least from thirty thousand feet, but now a federal judges block Jet Blues three point eight billion dollar acquisition of Spirit Airlines. The judge says the combination with stifle competition and raise fares for consumers. Jet Blue and Spirit contended that consolidation is the only way smaller airlines can effectively compete with the dominant carriers. Time and not for look at some of the other stories making news around the world. For that, we're joined by Bloomberg's Amy Morris Amy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. President Biden is worried about his supplemental bills stalling out in Congress, so he's inviting some of the key players to the White House today. Bloomberg's Nancy lyons with the latest. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre provided a list of those invited to the meeting, and then Biden will host congressional leaders from the Senate and the House, along with key committee leaders and ranking members. She says there's a lot to talk about, but President Biden has one topic he's especially concerned with. This is going to be about discussing critical importance of the President's Facial Security supplemental request. That's the proposal to further fund Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Republicans are refusing to move on that until there's a consensus on a new border policy in Washington. Nancy lyons Bloomberg Radio. Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln says soil should be treated as a precious resource, telling the World Economic Forum in Davos that lack of food is causing unprecedented global migration flows at Russia's war in Ukraine and attacks by who they rebels and the Red Sea have made things worse. A parent who can't put food on the table for their children picks up the family and moves because it's the most basic thing, the most important thing that they can do. Lincoln says, the problem is likely to get worse as climate change threatens to reduce crop yields. Now Climate Envoy John Kerry, also at the World Economic Forum, says he's stepping down from the role within the Biden administration so he can take on a more vocal position for the Biden campaign. He assured other world climate leaders that yes, he'll still be around. I'm going to stay at this and there are so many different ways to continue to be able to be engaged in this. So unfortunately you're stock. You'll see me at the copy you see. Rivia Carrie says regardless of who wins the election, the global climate agenda will remain solid, and the World Health Organization says the number of adult tobacco users is on the decline. The organization says the biggest decrease in tobacco use is seen happening in lower to middle income countries. We have nineteen million less smokers than we had two years ago. That is the first time that we see such a decline. Doctor Rudiger Kresh is urging countries to continue putting control policies in place for tobacco. Global News twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Amy Morris and this is Bloomberg Karen. All right, Amy, thank you. We do bring you news throughout the day right here on Bloomberg Radio. But now you can get the latest news on demand, and that means whenever you want it. Subscribe to Bloomberg News Now to get the latest headlines of 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 apples, Spotify, and anywhere else you get your podcasts. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update. Here's John stash Hour John Charny Atlanta Falcons, one of seven NFL teams looking for a head coach at indications that the Falcons are looking for a big name to be their new coach. The day after they interviewed Bill Belichick, they interviewed Jim Harbaugh, who previously had already interviewed with the Los Angeles Chargers. So Harbaugh clearly hasn't interest in returning to the NFL and leaving Michigan, where he just won a national championship. Reportedly, Har

is sustainably at two percent medium term and we have the data to you know, support it, I'm not going to shout victory. No, not yet. How much is the inflation reduction thanks to your monetary power and how much of it is like, No, I wouldn't call it luck. I think two factors have played a critical role, and it's the decline in energy prices that we have observed. You know, energy prices pushed prices up massively, and energy prices decline of course has a similar impact. So that's number one. Number two the bottlenecks that we have observed as a result of COVID in particular, and which lasted quite a lot of quite a long time, has gradually faded out, and that also had an impact, you know, more supply, more availability of goods. Second factor. The third factor is monetary policy, and it's undoubtedly been effective, if only to anchor inflation expectations, which we know is really important. So it has had an impact on inflation itself, but it has definitely had an impact on inflation expectations, which by all accounts and all surveys and all measurements have come down and are really now broadly onto that two percent medium term target that we have. I know it's obsessive two percent medium term targets, but yeah, that's what it is. Yeah, but at least it's auld guide the markets, right, I mean, it's good to be upsetsed. Well, if they don't know that that's what we are aiming for, then they need to have the head examined, that's for sure. And then again talk to me a little bit about wage bargaining. So again is that going to be on the upside and could that change you know, the timing of a possible work. Well, I'm glad you mentioned wages in general, wage bargaining in particular, and I'll go to that, but I want to tell you that there are three things that I'm watching carefully. Wage bargainings, profit margins, energy prices, and hopefully not but the coming back of supply bottom Miex. Those are four key components which could have a serious impact on the work that we're doing against inflation. But back to your wage question. Wages have gone up, but relatively slowly, so in prices have gone up earlier and faster than wages, so we are now facing a moment of not only some degree of alignment, but catch up as well. So employees have lost purchasing power in the course of twenty one twenty two, and there is now a catch up effect in the bargaining discussions that are taking place. We will know a lot more, probably in April May, because the numbers the bargaining agreements are being negotiated in the first quarter of every year, and the results come in after the agreements have been closed, so that gives us indication that we can corroborate and verify in the late spring, I would say of of twenty four, that will be a strong indication our wages slowly catching up, and that catch up process will take place over the course of two or three years possibly, or is there a very strong catch up coupled with an alignment with inflation, which would give me concern because while we're not seeing today's second round effect, that could be the result of this sort of twofold process. Are you confident there will be a cut this year in interest rates? Confident? I'm confident that short off another major shock, we have reach reached a peak. Okay, Now we have to stay restrictive for as long as necessary to make sure that we get to that state where we're all saying, okay, confident that it is at two percent medium term. I know some people argue that maybe we are overshooting, maybe we're taking risks. I think the risk would be worse if we went too fast and had to come back to more tightening, because we would have wasted all the efforts that everybody has put in the last fifteen months. The US election, Yeah, let me have some coffee. How arid are you about the US election? It's for the American people to decide what they want with their politics, with their government. With their future. But obviously we are all concerned about it because the United States is the largest economy, the largest defense country in the world, and has been a beacon of democracy with all its upside and downside. But this is what they should be considering, and of course we cannot interfere with their choice. It's their choice and that's the beauty of democracy. But we have to be extremely attentive and anticipate, just as we do with inflation. You know, we do scenarios. What if, what if? Then what do we do? Because that's the real question. And you know where I sit now in Frankfurt, head of the ECB, I think that we have to be strong as Europeans and not assume that we can rely on whoever our friends are around the world, because these things change over the course of time, as we have seen. So what if Donald Trump gets into the White House, what are some of the policies that europe could be put in place to not be cut also between China and the US with Donald Trump and the White House. Well, for one, it has to be strong of its own and if I look at my own shop, because it matters to monetary policy transmission, I think that and you will hear that from others. We have to accelerate capital market union. We need financing in Europe. There is a lot of saving in Europe, and we have to make sure that those savings actually stay here to finance what needs to be financed, which is predominantly the climate transition, which is digitalization, which is enough industrialization conducted with a targeted approach so that we can on the key in the key areas be self sufficient. Are there policies that you would put in place now for Europe to I guess counter the US exceptionalism, which you know could be questioned going forward. I think I would accelerate many of the initiatives that have been taken, and I would encourage European leaders to put aside a little bit they respective idiosyncraty idiosyncratic differences to be more together because you know, it's a question of off size and scale, and Europe is a very large market, has a very sizable population, has capacity to innovate, has financing. It has to you know, be a little bit more cohesive together and forward looking. 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, SERIUSXM, the 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 Daybreak and beSee

In an exclusive interview, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) reflects on the third anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol on the Capitol and discusses antisemitism on college campuses. Biden 2024 Principal Deputy Campaign Manager Quentin Fulks exclusively shares the latest on President Joe Biden's re-election campaign. Israeli President Isaac Herzog addresses concerns that the Israel-Hamas war will escalate into a wider conflict abroad in an exclusive interview. Mike Memoli, Peggy Noonan and Kimberly Atkins Stohr join the Meet the Press roundtable.

Pressure is growing for a further halt to the Israel-Gaza war. The leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, has arrived in Cairo for talks on a fresh ceasefire in Gaza and Israeli President Isaac Herzog has said his country is ready for another humanitarian pause.Efforts to get a United Nations Security Council ceasefire motion are set to resume after Tuesday's vote was delayed. The US says it is working with other members on the text, but it has vetoed previous resolutions. Also on the programme: the European Union agrees new rules on migration; and we'll hear from the developer of an artificial intelligence model that can predict people's life chanceswith astonishing accuracy.(Photo shows smoke rising in the Gaza Strip, as seen from southern Israel on 20 December 2023.

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with Ian Millhiser, senior correspondent at Vox, to discuss some of the biggest cases before the Supreme Court this term. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Biden Administration's internal reckoning with their strategic failures in support of Israel, the US' minor aid to Gaza and minuscule conditions to punish violent settlers, the House's antisemitic antisemitism bill, Tommy Tuberville relinquishing his obstructive hold on military appointments, the Senate's aid to Ukraine and Israel, the upcoming GOP Debate, and the continuing extreme temperature of 2023, before parsing through the insanity of the House's “anti-zionism is antisemitism” bill, with some help from Jewish Rep. Jerrold Nadler. Ian Milhiser then joins, diving right into an assessment of the impending Supreme Court decision on Moore v. US, a case that will define the possibility of a federal wealth tax as conservatives attempt to tie the taxation of unrealized sums to the apportionment clause in the constitution. After walking through what apportionment, unrealized sums, and “direct taxation” could mean (with some help from Sonya Sotomayor), Milhiser walks Sam and Emma through the newest SCOTUS case involving the “Major Questions Doctrine” – tackling what that doctrine entails, and why the 5th circuit is using it to put the SEC, and the administrative state writ large, in their crosshairs, before working through the 5th Circuit's prominent role working under a conservative Supreme Court, and where Chief Justice Roberts, himself, stands on the doctrine. Wrapping up, they explore the upcoming case against Perdue Pharmaceuticals – as the Sacklers attempt to shirk their liabilities onto the business – and the First Amendment attacks on the BDS movement. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss the official denial of Cenk Uygur's presidential candidacy, watch Dana Bash attempt to throw Rep. Jayapal – and Palestinian victims of sexual assault – under the bus to maintain her narrative, which Ryan Grim refuses to let go unacknowledged. They watch Israeli President Isaac Herzog attempt to defend the mass slaughter of Palestinian civilians under pretexts of Hamas' supposed drive for global domination, and Tim Pool and Matt Walsh really sink into their respective niches of bigotry, plus, your calls and IMs!

From Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to the far corners of the globe, Crosstalk brings news items to listeners each Friday to keep you informed. Here's a sample of what was shared this week-----Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Israel seemingly in part to push for an extension of the Israel-Hamas cease-fire. Since that time, rockets fired by Hamas triggered an end to this week-long pause. Fighting resumed after Israel accused Hamas of violating the truce agreement. After Hamas began firing rockets into southern Israel, the Israel Defense Forces resumed bombing in Gaza City. ----According to an Iranian official, Hamas has only used 10-12- of its military arsenal so far in the war against Israel.----Roni Kriboy managed to escape from terrorists who held him hostage in the Gaza Strip, but ordinary Gazans returned him to his captors.----Hamas terrorists kidnapped children and were trained to create a specific sign on their bodies. They would put one of the legs of the child on a hot motorcycle exhaust creating a -brand- on their bodies. This mark would help identify them if they attempted to escape. ----Israeli President Isaac Herzog told -X- owner Elon Musk that his platform needed to do more to fight and combat anti-Jewish hate as Musk visited Israel on a goodwill visit.----Tuesday evening the House voted to reaffirm Israel's right to exist.----Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer -who is Jewish- ripped the political left in a speech from the Senate floor Wednesday over its overt antisemitism in the days following the October 7th attack. Jim provided audio from the speech.

On today's podcast: 1) Israeli troops entered Gaza's Shifa hospital compound as part of a “precise and targeted operation” against Hamas that runs the risk of intensifying international ire if it causes more civilian casualties.  2) President Joe Biden and Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping's carefully choreographed, much-anticipated sitdown on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit kicks off Wednesday at the Filoli estate south of San Francisco. 3) House lawmakers overcame partisan animosity Tuesday to pass a temporary government funding bill that greatly lowers the risk of a shutdown even as it delays fights over Ukraine aid, border policies and deep cuts to federal programs.

Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. We begin in the Middle East, where Israel is now carrying out a raid on Gaza's main hospital, Alshifa. The Israeli military calls it a targeted and precise operation against Hamas, but it could add to growing concerns among allies about civilian casualties. Sources tell Bloomberg News the White House is getting more frustrated with Israel's handling of the war and ignoring what the Biden administration calls difficult conversations. But Israeli government spokesman Alon Levy says he is still confident of US support. Israel and the United States a completely in lockstep on the goals of this operation, which is that Hamas must be defeated. President Biden has been very clear from day one. We have been very grateful to him for his moral, material and diplomatic leadership in saying that Israel has every right and every duty to go after Hamas and destroy that terror group and eliminate that threat. That is the only way we can make sure another October seventh massacre doesn't happen. Alon Levy tells Bloomberg Radio Israeli troops are delivering medical aids of the hospital. He says this operation won't be the end of Israel's war with Hamas well. Nathan al Shifa Hospital has now been without power and water for days. Manir al Bersh is from the Hamas run health ministry, and he says newborns are being moved to improve their chances because of shortage of electricity. They have gathered them all and put them on those bids together so that they can have some more tem bricher. You know, the winter is getting inside now Gazza. Without having a proper temperature for them. They immediately die. The UN says only one hospital in northern Gaza is still operational at a minimum level. Back here in the US, Karen, we're following another major story this morning. The threat of a government shutdown is easing. The House has passed a temporary funding bill, and we get the latest from Bloomberg's Amy Morris in Washington. It is a two part measure that would fund some parts of the government through January nineteenth and others through February second, which sets up the possibility of another shut down deadline on Groundhog Day. Democrats bailed out the Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson, whose plan drew opposition from hardliners in his own party because it doesn't cut government spending nor change border policies, and it also doesn't include aid for Ukraine nor Israel. But Senate Democrats are expected to back it anyway. They'll need the cooperation of all senators to meet the Friday night deadline when federal funding lapses. Shington I ma Any Moore is Bloomberg Radio right to me. Thank you well. We are just hours away from the highly anticipated meeting between President Biden and Chinese leader Shi zhen Ping. Their schedule to meet on the sidelines of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit in San Francisco. Bloomberg said, Baxter has a preview. It will be the first meeting in a year. She was greeted here by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Governor Gavin Newsom. Students line in the streets waving Chinese flags, and President Biden says communication here is key. We're not trying to decouple from China, but we're What we're trying to do is change the relationship for the better. Biden did say President she needs to ease the criteria for US companies to invest in China and not require those companies to turn over trade secrets. In San Francisco, I'm at Baxter, Bloomberg Radio, thank you. Ed. Turning to the economy, a day after investors shared news that inflation broadly slowed in October, we get two more key readings today, Producer prices and detail sales. Let's get a preview of that from Bloomberg's Michael McKee. Sales are forecasts to have fallen in October, led by gasoline autos and the ongoing drop in inflation. Retail sales are calculated in terms of dollar value, so falling gasoline prices and lower goods inflation should have a major impact. Take those out, and sales are forecasts to be up to tenths, much less than the six tenths gain in September. Analysts will also be watching for an expected slowing in producer prices. They don't feed directly into consumer indexes, but offer a rough guide to the future path of inflation. Michael McKee, Bloomberg Radio, all right, Mike, thank you. About traders are betting the Fed's hiking cycle is over following yesterday's cool inflation print, But a couple of Wall Street titans are throwing caution. We spoke with Citadel founder Ken Griffin. The FED needs to stay on message that they're going to put the inflation genie back in the bottle, and so they if they cut too soon, I think they risk losing credibility around on their commitment to a two percent inflation target. Ken Griffin's caution was echoed by JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Diamond. I think they do. They're doing the right thing to pause for now. You know they've raised rates a lot, you know, to wait to see the effect on the economy in the US, particularly as the fiscal spending, the excess fiscal spending is winding down and quantit tight and tiny is kicking in. But I still think you should prepare they might have to do a little bit more, and I think people should be prepared for that just as a kind of a risk management tool. And I'm afraid inflation may not go away that quickly. JP Morgan. Chase CEO Jamie Diamond has said previously he's advising clients to be prepared for interest rates as high as seven percent. Inflation's also in focus in Europe, Karen. In fact, inflation in the UK stumbled to its lowest level in two years. Consumer prices rose four point six percent from a year earlier in October, down sharply from six point seven in September. Slow downs prompting investors to firm up bets at the Bank of England will be able to cut rates as early as this of next year. Well we turned to earnings now, Nathan and profit at ten cent beat estimates. Analysts say it's another sign that Chinese consumers remain willing to spend on games and entertainment during a nationwide downturn here in the US. Arnas continue at Target, TJX, and Cisco all set to report, and 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, Amy, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. Tens of thousands of people from across the country gathered on the National Mall in Washington, d C. In support of Israel. Organizers encouraged everyone to speak out against anti Semitism in America today. You can't remain silent. You know, that was a mistake who's made during the Holocaust, during the Second World War, they knew what was going on, but they felt, you know, they were too timid to speak off. Speaking remotely from Jerusalem, Israeli President Isaac Herzog thanked the demonstrators for gathering and supported marching for quote good over evil. Israel's assertion that a Hamas command center is under a key Gaza medical complex is being confirmed by the US. Bloomberg's Nanzy Lions has the latest. A Biden administration says it does have intelligence that confirms Iran backed militant groups are using hospitals, including the Al Shifa facility in Gaza to conceal and support their military operations. This is National Security Council spokesman John Kirby. Members operate a command and control node from Al shifa He and Gaza City. They have stored weapons there and they're prepared to respond to an Israeli military operation against that facility. Kirby says the US does not support striking the hospital from the air or seeing a firefight among helpless sick people. In Washington, Nancy lyons Bloomberg Radio Morning continues in Ohio following yesterday's fiery multi vehicle crash that killed six people outside of Columbus, including three high school teenagers. Tusky Valley School Superintendent doctor Derrek Vinarski spoke at a vigil last night at the school's outdoor stadium. There are no words for the sheer magnitude of loss and grief felt by all of US officials say. A semi slammed into a charter bus that was carrying the high school marching band on I seventy A teacher and two parent chaperones were also killed in a vehicle that was following the bus. The massive fire that burned a section of the ten Freeway near downtown LA may have started in a homeless encampment. A Stella Lopez is CEO of the Downtown Industrial Business Improvement District. Homeless people when it gets chilly at night, they start fires. When they need to cook, they start fires. This was a disaster waiting to happen. Officials confirmed there were sixteen homeless people living under the now damaged section of the ten freeway. Global news twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Amy Morris and this is Bloomberg Karen. All right, Amy, thank you. I mean do bring you news throughout the day right here on Bloomberg Radio. But now, as Amy said, you can get the latest news on demand whenever you want it. 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. Find its time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update with John stash Hour John Karon. A big early season college basketball doubleheader in Chicago had started with Duke beating Michigan State seventy four to sixty five, and then top rank Kansas held off Kentucky eighty nine eighty four. The Jayhawks seven foot Hunter Dickinson scored twenty seven points. He at twenty one rebounds. Pensey night of the NBA, with all the games part of the in season tournament. The Warriors had to play without Steph Curry out with a soord knee, and then early in the game, less than two minutes in, there was a fight. Klay Thompson got a jacket and so was Draymond Green, who had Minnesota's Rudy Gobert and I headlocked. The T

there there are babies, babies. They haven't been given access to the Red Cross. I'm afraid I can't comment on negotiations for their release. You'll understand these are sensitive issues. Human lives are at stake, and when we have information, we will of course update. If the Alshafa Hospital complex is a main one of the main Hamas bases in northern Gaza, once that operation is over, does that mean that the military, the Israeli military has accomplished its main aim in Gaza. In your view, our main aim in Gaza is to destroy the totality of Hamas's terrorists and governing infrastructure. How significant would it be though, if the base that you claim is under the hospital at the hospital in the hospital. How significant would it be if that were something that was dealt with, How big, how significant would it be in terms of the operation. The Sufa Terra compound is of course a very important target. It would be a very serious blow to Hamas. But we should be under no illusions that if that is overrun, and of course we show all that evidence to the international media that the operation will be over because we cannot allow Hamas to regroup, rebuild and remetastasize across the Gaza strip in order to pose a threat to our people. The objective of this war, in response to the October set massacre when Hammas declared war on us, is to destroy Hamas completely so that it can never again pose a threat to our people. Chief of Terror compound is of course very important, but it's not the end, and we know that the days ahead are going to be long and they're going to be difficult. Are you concerned about support from the United States for the military operation fading. We've been reporting about disquiet within the Biden administration with how Israel is conducting this military operation. Not in the least, Israel and the United States are completely in lockstep on the goals of this operation, which is that Hamas must be defeated. President Biden has been very clear from day one. We have been very grateful to him for his moral, material and diplomatic leadership in saying that Israel has every right and every duty to go after Hamas and destroy that terror group and eliminate that threat. That is the only way we can make sure another October seventh massacre doesn't happen by eliminating the terror group that is threatening to do it again. The United States knows that, not only the United States, so do other Arab governments. The United States has been speaking with. We understand they have their own domestic pressures that mean they can't speak openly on the issue, but they understand that the Iranian proxy terrorist group in the Gaza Strip must not be allowed to maintain its territorial control. And that was Israeli government spokesman Alon Levy speaking with Bloomberg's Caroline Hepger and Stephen Carroll for more. We're joined now by Rosalind Mathieson, Bloomberg News Director for Europe, the Middle East and Africa. Roz, good morning. As we watch these developments unfold in the Al Shifa Hospital, we heard those reassurances from the Israeli government spokesman, but the fact does remain that we are hearing as well a lot more frustration, not just from the US but from the international community at large over what is happening in the Gaza strip. Well, that's right. We heard of course from the IDF spokesman a short time ago, and they are confirming this operation which is in the vicinity of the Shifa Hospital. They're saying they're now in the grounds. It's very difficult to know exactly what's going on there though, because there's a communications blackouts that we're getting very little information back out this way about that operation. We do know that Israel said that we're bringing in medical crews and Arabic speakers with them. It's very very delicate, of course, because this hospital has become the focal point on either side. We know that Israel says Hamas has got tunnels under this tunnel. They're using it, they say, as a staging point for attacks, but also it's a center of civilian of civilians who've clustered there in recent weeks into the compound. We know that they've run very low on things like fuel and medicine and so on. So you've got sort of these competing goals going on in a very very delicate environment, and we are getting those global expressions of concern as a result. Is like, when you've got so many civilians and close proximity to a major military operation, how can that be carried out in a way that minimizes the risk of civilians as a result, and it brings into even larger focus as well, this idea from Israel that hamas as strategy is to use civilians as human shields as it continues to carry out this war against Israel. But does this feel though like a sort of a turning point in this war now to have Israeli forces now inside a hospital facility in Gaza. Well, the interesting thing also is that Israel is saying that this doesn't necessarily mean that their operation in Gaza would be finished. They've said their goal is to eradicate Hamas entirely, to ensure that Hamas could never again carry out an attack to the extent that they did on October seven inside Israel. So that's a lot more than just going into this hospital. We are talking potentially weeks and months of fighting inside Gaza, door to door, street to street again, bringing military forces and militants into proximity with civilians who are still in the north of Gaza. It could be a turning point again perhaps in the narrative around Israel on this. You're mentioning the heightened sense of global concern, the comments we're seen not just from aid agencies in the UN, for example, but also from the US, from Europe, from countries in Africa and the region, saying we're really worried about how this could play out on the ground on this particular side. But it doesn't seem at all that this would be the end of the Israeli military operation. There's still a long way from what they're saying that they have to go. And to that point, we're still seeing, even with these public expressions of concern from President Biden, that the Pentagon is continuing to draw down weapons and send them to Israel. What is the balance that the US is trying to strike when it comes to continuing to give this type of support to Israel while expressing concern about the risk of civilian casualties. Well, that's right, so very tricky balancing for the US because they're a strong ally of Israel. They provided Israel for a long time with military assistance, including for the Iron Dome missile shield over Israel, and they've said that they want to continue to support that because that's protecting israelis from attacks coming from Hamas and others Hasbala aerial attacks and that's important and they've said they'll continue that. But beyond that, you have the question of if you're supporting Israel militarily with things like artillery and ammunition, how is that being used? A guess whom might that be used in such a delicate conflict on the ground inside Gaza, And so the US needs to tread very carefully there. And again you're seeing that balancing act just sort of like yes, public support still for Israel. Behind the scenes, we know that they are calling on Israel and urging Israel to proceed very carefully inside Gaza in that growing sense of frustration about how it seems to be proceeding. And then the third concern for the US is also does this conflict still somehow expand and during the US directly militarily in the region. And we know the US has sent a lot more of its military assets into the area. We're talking warships and so on, and actually troops being stationed in the region, so that's going to be a high concern for the US. Also absolutely thanks for this, Roskad to have you with us. Rosalind Mathis and Bloomberg News Director for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Karen Well Nathan. We want to turn now to our interview with Jamie Diamond, the head of JP Morgan, spoke with our Bloomberg affiliate in Mexico discussing the latest inflation numbers, a potential rating downgrade for the US, and the headwinds that the US economy faces. Let's go to part of that discussion. I think the number is good today. Personally, I think people are overreacting to short term numbers and they should stop doing that because you look at all the adjustments going to them, they're not completely valid. I think inflation is probably a little stickier than that shows. I think they do. They're doing the right thing to pause for now. You know they've raised rates a lot, you know, to wait to see the effect on the economy in the US, particularly as the fiscal spending, the excess physical spending is winding down and quantit tight and tiny is kicking in but I still think you should prepare. They might have to do a little bit more, and I think people should be prepared for that, just as a kind of a risk management tool. And I'm afraid inflation may not go away that quickly. And well. Also, three months ago, Fatur Rating downgraded US credit rating, and this weekend we saw Moodies changing its outlook on the US created rating to Native, pointing to our sharp rise in depth, servicing costs and political polarization. What do you expect in this terms? Yeah, look, I find a little ironic that fiction Moody's been doing that today. So here's what I think they are right to point out those issues. I would take polarization off. That's always been true in democracy. But yes, we have far more debt and more debt financing. We've been a little profitate when it comes to that. But the market is pricing US as triple A, which I think is more right, and the market will be more right than the rating agencies. I also want to point out I find this almost funny. They have a lot of country's rate of triple A. They all live under the protection of the American military, and so I think it's a little peculiar that that makes them triple A, but not America. So America will be fine, but we got to get our hands around these problems. They will not age well. The death it's a lot bigger this year than we thought. There may be consequences of that, and so I do I think the right to point it out and talking about your bank, Jamie, how would you sum up these year twenty twenty three, given that it was such a tough time for the brother industry. I don't look at any one year like it's a mystical thing, you know. I always tell people that profits are like the tip of an iceberg is bobbing in the ocean. You know, the real quality of your companies, your people, your systems, your technology, your products, your services. So we had a good year financially, you know. I know that some banks has some problems. We've been quite clear over earning. But to me, the important thing is that we're going to serve our clients through thicker thin We got plenty of capital, plan liquidity. We're not going to panic no matter what happens the environment out there. We're going to be in Mexico serving your clients, your country, or the way we should be. And you know, I think if rates and I'm hoping that the first Republicans we bought was probably the last domino. But I've always said, provided race don't go up, but we don't have a recession, and I do think banks being prepared for that, that's just a reasonable thoughtful risk management tool. Be prepared for things you don't expect, so you can continue to build your company. How to prepare for the things that you don't expect. The way we do it is we model out how are we to do in two percent ing of rates and seven percent interest rates, how we do with credit losses going up? Stress testing markets around the world. So we do like literally one hundred stress tests a week, and so always looking at that so we can manage through that and then under all those circumstances, we're fine. Find means to me that you don't have to announce massive layoffs and you don't have to like pull out of a country, that you continue to meet the commitments you have to the people in the country and the countries themselves. You know, people don't like bangs who are fair weather friends, and so you know we're going to be there for people all the time, and you know, we've always been careful how we run the bank. There is really a future for fintech startups or will they be outlasted or innovated by banks. Yeah, I think it's the wrong way to look at the question like it's a binary answer. You know, there will be some who will not survive. There will be some who are very smart and they have a great niche idea. There will be some who are more than that, you know, So JP Morgan, we look at all the fintech, we also look at the big tech. You know, we have competition effectively from Apple, Google, Facebook, and so there will always be survivors. And our job is to make sure we're lean, we're mean, we're thinking we're competitive, we're not. It's always better assuming that some of these people be successful than to assume that they won't be successful. And you know, I've pointed out their own meagement teams that there's some great companies out there that we could have built and we didn't like Square and Stripe, and so you know, you've got to be open minded and a little humble about what's going to take place. Saw alone is not going to make you succeed in the future. If you don't believe me, read about the history of all large corporations. Also, I would like you to ask about Mexican economy, which are your perspectives with high interest rates, high inflation, but with the opportunity of nearshuring. Again, I think it's a great opportunity. And you know, a lot of Latin America countries raise their industrates rapidly quickly, and they probably did the right thing for the long run of the economy. You're very low unemployment. You know, inflation is coming down, so hopefully you'll conquer that. I think countries should always look at and I really mean this, like I do with a company, what should they be growing? And you know, I think we've undergrown in America, you know, quite a bit over the last year, and I think Mexico should aspire to do much more. And just like so, that's how I look at it, and to do more all these countries, all of us. You know, it's about policy and you've already mentioned infrastructure, but it's about work skills, effective regulation, transparency, corporate governance, uh, you know, rapid permitting. It's all those things. You know, it's consistency of law that have a country grow and the important part of having a country grow it helps all of the citizens. There's more taxes, you have more a wherewithal you know, it's not just for big companies. You want to grow an economy, you really want it for everybody. Every job created, you know, every job created is a job for someone, and so you know people we need We only be very thoughtful. I can grow economies help and we should do it to benefit all the citizen of our country. You know, not just the you know, the wealthier and the employee, but everybody. This is Bloomberg day Break 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 oho in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six' one in Boston, and Bloomberg nine 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, Seriusxmbiheartradio 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

cutting spending and curtailing migration. 3) The White House cited a resumption of US-China military communications as a priority ahead of this week's meeting between Presidents Joe Biden and Xi Jinping.   Full transcript:  Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. Let's get the latest developments on the war in the Middle East. The US has conducted airstrikes in eastern Syria on targets link to Iran. Those strikes come as talks intensified to secure the release of hostages in the Gaza strip As Bloomberg News Managing editor Sylvia Westall reports, President Biden discussed that issue with the leader of Katar last night. Kata's quite question important role in this. It's already helped mediate between Israel, Hamas and foreign governments to release a small number of people and the estimates for around about two hundred hostages still trapped there, and are those talks ongoing. There's been discussions between Biden and the ruler of Katar and all these countries involved, and Israel said it won't even contemplate a cease far until those hostages are released. Bloomberg Sylvia west All reports President Biden also talked about increasing the flow of humanitarian assistance into Gaza with Cautter's premiere. Well, it's really Prime Minister Benjamin Etna who was asked about whether there could be a deal to exchange captives with Hamas. There could be, but I think the less I said about it, the more I'll increase the chancels that it materializes. And it's a result of pressure, military pressure, of the extraordinary work that the idea of was doing. And Prime Minister Nanya, who was on NBC's Meet the Press, but as really President Isaac Herzog is expressing caution, there are talks of behind the scenes. I cannot confirm any details. What I can say is that there's nothing substantial right now on the table. The United States is also heavily involved in this, so there's nothing tangible that I can report. Israeli President Isaac Herzog was a guest on CBS's Face the Nation, and you can hear Face the Nation and Meet the Press every Sunday on Bloomberg Radio. Turning to politics back here at Home, Karen, there is now one less Republican candidate for president. South Carolina Senator Tim Scott has ended his campaign. Scott says he will not immediately make an endorsement in the race, and he's not looking to join a Republican ticket as a vice presidential candidate Well Nathan. The US faces a risk of a government shutdown at the end of this week. Meanwhile, House Speaker Mike Johnson is trying a new approach to funding the government. By Bloomberg's At Baxter reports, the shutdown risks still Inger. The Johnson plan would extend some government funding until January nineteenth and others until February second. It also declined to do the immedia thirty percent spending cuts demanded by the right wing of his party, so that means fewer Republican votes and reliance on Democrats to cross lines and vote for it. He says, spending addiction cannot be broken overnight. Democrats so far have been moot. Whitehouse, though has already said it would only lead to future shutdowns. Johnson says he's scheduling a vote for tomorrow at Baxter Bloomberg Radio. All right, thank you well. Former New York Fed President Bill Dudley's warning the US fiscal position is on a quote unsustainable trajectory. Dudley is also a columnist form Bloomberg Opinion. He told the conference in Sydney there's a lack of political will to resolve the crisis at a time when debt costs are soaring, Nathan. The warning from Dudley comes just two days after the US was threatened with the loss of its last top credit rating. Moody's Investors' Service signaled it was inclined to downgrade the nation because of a wider budget deficits and political polarization. Deborah Cunningham is Global Liquidity Market's Chief investment officer at Federated Hermes. The concerns being bore what's happening from a congressional perspective, and the dysfunctionality from a lawmaking standpoint is the concern rather than the actual quantitative financials. So I think from an impact as much on the economy from an impact on where rates are at this point, I think that's behind US and debort Cunningham had federated Herme, says Moody's is the only one of the three main credit companies with a top rating on the US Karen, We're watching for major geopolitical news this week. President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Shei Jinping are scheduled to meet face to face on Wednesday, as the United States hosts the annual Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Conference for the first time since twenty eleven. White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan says resuming military communications is crucial when it comes to managing the relationship. Ties and communications between our two militaries are critical. The Chinese have basically severed those communication links. President Biden would like to re establish them, and he will look to this summit as an opportunity to try to advance the ball on that. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan tel CNN. The Biden she meetings also expected to cover the Israel Hamas War, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, human rights, and artificial intelligence well NY then ahead of the Biden She meeting. We are seeing signs of improving US China relations. Sources a Beijing is weighing ending a freeze on Boeing seven thirty seven Max aircraft in China. Boeing has not made any significant sales of its best selling narrow body jets in China since at least twenty eighteen. In another development, earlier this morning, the Emirates announced it was buying Boeing aircraft valued at fifty two billion dollars. So the broader market Karen investors have another major event to look forward to tomorrow when we get the latest reading on inflation with the Consumer Price Index for October. Anda Wong is chief US economist with Bloomberg Economics. We are expecting the headline CPI to be very soft because seasonally adjusted gasoline prices actually came down over five percent in October, so a month the increase of zero point one percent on the headline CPI. Bloomberg Chief US Economist Stana Wong says, over all consumer price data are expected to show inflation easing to a year on year rate of three point three percent in October. Time. Now for look at some of the other stories making news around the world. For that. We're joined by Bloomberg Scott Carr, Scott, Good morning, Good morning, Karen. Donald Trump Junior will be back on the stands today in New York as the first defense witness in the Trump organization civil fraud trial. The Trump family organizations being accused of fraudulently inflating their wealth on paper to obtain better loans. The New York Attorney General's Office ended its arguments last Wednesday and was denied a motion to limit certain expert witnesses from testifying for the defense. One person is dead four others injured after a shooting at a flea market in Texas. Police in Perlin, Texas, say three adults and two children were shot at the popular street market yesterday afternoon. Officer Chad Rodgers says the incident started as an argument between two people, though it's unclear if they both had guns. Three adult victims and two children, so a lot of people that are very very upset, and this does not appear to be a targeted attack on the flea market. That this was a disturbance between two individuals that resulted in people being shot. So far, no arrest have been made. All five victims were taken to local hospitals. A state of emergencies been declared in Los Angeles by California Governor Gavin Newsom after fire broke out underneath a storage yard early Saturday morning, igniting highly flammable wooden palettes. Trailers and cars then jump to another storage yard, growing in size to eight acres at one point, causing the closure of LA's Highway ten in both directions. The freeway remains closed, and officials say they'll be lucky if they can get one lane open today. The traffic is going to be horrendous. It's going to really impact Los Angeles. The blaze burned through the equivalent of six football fields. The governor says the state is mobilizing resources to complete repairs and minimize the impact for travel in and around the city. Iceland is evacuating a resort town south of the capital of Reykovic how to fear the town of Grindevic may be destroyed by a volcanic eruption. The town is near an active volcanic system and was evacuated over the weekend after magma shifting beneath the ground triggered hundreds of earthquakes. Local officials say that magma was at a very shallow depth, so they were expecting an eruption at any time. Global news twenty four hours a day and whenever you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Scott Carran. This is Bloomberg all right, Scott, thank you, while we're bringing news throughout the day right here on Bloomberg Radio. But now, as Scott said, you can get the latest news on demand whenever you want it. 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 podcast. Time Now for the Bloomberg Sports Update, here's John stash Hour John Karen Sunday, number ten in the NFL began for the second week in a row in Frankfurt, Germany. The Colts beat the Patriots ten to six. That drops New England to two to eight, their second three game winning streaking the season. They have the worst record in the AFC. Only Carolina has the worst record in the NFL. The Patriots have scored over seventeen points only twice in ten games. Another win for red hot Houston Texans. It was thirty to twenty seven at Cincinnati. Texans won and on a field goal on the final play. They've gone five games, which is more than they had won in any of the last three seasons. Bengals four game wins streak comes to an end. They fall the last place in the AFC North, where Cleveland won at Baltimore thirty three to thirty one. The Browns were down by fourteen with nine minutes left, scored two touchdowns in the fort

Israel's border, with Lebanon. It was the most intense day of fighting since October seventh, a lot of back and forth fire, some civilians and civilians were injured. Israeli civilians were injured in these fire exchange exchanges. So Israel has been retaliating, you know, all the time to these attacks. There's also been some attacks this morning, although at a slightly lower scale with no one with no one injured. The Tel Aviv stock exchange is down for a second straight day following these events. So this is being closely watched on all fronts. And you know, I will mention finally that Israeli Defense minister, you have Glanc's ass at a press conference on Saturday night, what would be Israel's redline on this border? And he answered the reporter who asked this, when we strike in remoot, you'll know that this red line had been crossed. 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 one in Washington, Bloomberg one oh six' 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, Serious XM, the iHeartRadio app, and on Blue 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

Explosion at Hornady plant in Grand Island, Nebraska kills one worker and injures several. -Analyst Comments-Information warfare continues to be a persistent threat, especially within the combat zone. Israeli officials continue to order a southern evacuation route from Gaza using the Beach Road and Salah Eddine Road, while also conducting airstrikes on these roads. Consequently, Hamas militants use these strikes to push the narrative that the IDF will strike any fleeing civilians, and staying put is the better option. As always, the truth is likely in the grey area between these two positions. Israel has been observed to target civilians, hospitals, and humanitarian activities with little regard for Civilian Casualties (CIVCAS). Many UN employees and international aid workers have been killed in these strikes. On the other hand, HAMAS has a long history of using civilian locations and structures for military purposes, further blurring the lines between civilians and militants.Public statements by diplomats are more clear. Israeli President Isaac Herzog has outlined the Israeli position strongly indicating that Israel considers Palestine and HAMAS to be one and the same. This strongly indicates Israel's intention to remove the entirety of Palestine from Gaza.As the ground invasion seems imminent, we must remember the political complications of the region which inhibit accurate information reporting. There is no land on Earth more politically charged than this region, even simple road maps are highly controversial. Over the past few decades, Israeli settlements have encroached into terrain that the international community generally recognizes as Gaza. As such, Israeli tanks are both on the border of Gaza, and already inside Gaza, depending on diplomatic perspective. This creates challenges as to where combat actions are taking place, as both sides usually refer to the same location with two different names.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst: S2AEND REPORTNNNN

Israeli woman Mor Bayder learned about the murder of her grandmother on Saturday from a Hamas terrorist who uploaded a video of the gory scene to the grandmother's private Facebook page. Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is calling on Harvard to release the names of students that are members of groups that signed a pro-terror statement in response to the recent Hamas attacks against Israel, so that employers do not “inadvertently” hire pro-terrorist graduates in the future. Rep. George Santos (R-NY) threatened other Republicans on Wednesday after he was indicted on 10 new felony counts in a 23 count superseding indictment that was returned this week stemming from alleged crimes related to campaign finance. Israeli President Isaac Herzog slammed CNN on Thursday for accusing his country of committing a “war crime” by imposing hardships on the people of Gaza as it responds to a massive terror attack by the Hamas terrorist group, which operates throughout the Gaza Strip. A bipartisan group of Senate Armed Services Committee members sent a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Wednesday requesting that the Pentagon send Iron Dome batteries to Israel as the country faces near-constant rocket fire from Hamas terrorists. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ralph spends the whole hour with Jennifer Vanderbes, author of “Wonder Drug: The Secret History Of Thalidomide In America And Its Hidden Victims.” Thalidomide was never “commercially available” in the U.S., but American doctors handed out samples to patients even though no one could prove the drug was safe. Or could definitively say what the drug did. And by the time thalidomide landed at the FDA for approval, whistleblowers, journalists, doctors, and patients in Germany, Australia, and the UK were sounding the alarm about its shocking side effects.Jennifer Vanderbes is an award-winning novelist, journalist and screenwriter. Her latest book is Wonder Drug: The Secret History Of Thalidomide In America And Its Hidden Victims.It did not shock me researching this story that the pharmaceutical firms operated with a focus on profit, and that allowed for cutting corners. What really did shock me in my research was realizing that the doctors uniformly gaslit these patients. And it was stunning to me that you didn't have any of these physicians who had given the drug to pregnant women who realized.Jennifer VanderbesI was very surprised to be looking through materials that were so at odds with what had been reported. And in many ways this became, to me, a story about what can happen when the media accepts at face value a certain spin on the story. The FDA was very dependent initially on what the drug firms were telling it, and then the press was depending on what the FDA was telling it, and then everybody sort of moved on. It was also a happy story that people wanted to believe: “we were the one wonderful country that had stopped this drug.“Jennifer VanderbesTheir number one tactic is to just not even argue the merits of [thalidomide cases], but get them dismissed on the basis that, “All these people should have known.” And I would say six years of my life—and this book— is really an examination of how incredibly reasonable and understandable it is that these individuals did not know. They were not given the information, and the government was quite complicit.Jennifer VanderbesThe best investigative reporters in America didn't uncover this story, until [Jennifer Vanderbes] put it together in a book. Because it took unbelievable energy, curiosity, travel, interviewing the survivors, going to their homes, and the most recent development— which was really incredible that it didn't get national TV and radio coverage— was the gathering, for the first time, of thalidomide victims in San Diego.Ralph NaderIn Case You Haven't Heard with Francesco DeSantis1. On July 25th, The Teamsters reported that UPS caved to their demands, narrowly avoiding a massive strike. The wins in the new contract include higher wages, more jobs, ending the two-tier wage system, air conditioning in UPS trucks, part-time Rewards, and drivers getting Martin Luther King Day off. The union has triumphantly declared “We've Changed the Game” If these negotiations had fallen through, 340,000 UPS Teamsters would have gone on strike. Other employers, such as the Hollywood AMPTP, should take notes.2. The Intercept reports that the Sanders-led Senate HELP Committee has passed an amendment to the  Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness Act allocating $3 million to the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine to explore new options to pay for developing pharmaceuticals, specifically through public funding or “innovation prizes.” These drugs would then enter the public domain so they could be sold as generic medications. Sanders has made the cost of prescription drugs a high priority during his chairmanship on the committee, and hopefully this effort will bear fruit.3. Following months of protest, CNN reports that Israel has rammed through their controversial judicial reform legislation. This law will limit the independence of the Israeli judiciary, which has been a bulwark against the most extreme Right-wing factions in the country. This measure has sparked a new round of scrutiny regarding the $3.8 billion in military aid the US provides to Israel annually.4. Progressive Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has requested $15 million for a plan to help decarbonize 200 to 350 homes by modernizing heating and insulation for low-income Chicagoans, Gregory Pratt of the Tribune reports. One hopes to see more progressives pushing for these localized and tailored climate change plans.5. Anchor Brewing, a San Francisco institution, has been on a roller-coaster for several years. The workers organized the plant, then it was sold to Sapporo, and now Sapporo is attempting to sell the company for parts. In response, the union is attempting to raise funds to purchase Anchor Brewing and run it as a worker-owned cooperative. More information is available at Vinepair.com.6. In other alcohol related news, the American Prospect reports that Total Wine, the company founded by Rep. David Trone of Maryland – who is currently seeking the open Senate seat in that state – is fighting an FTC antitrust investigation. The agency is investigating the chain for “price discrimination and exclusive dealing arrangements in alcohol markets as part of a broader crackdown that's also charging Pepsi and Coke for similar anti-competitive conduct.” Total Wine has reportedly sought to impede this investigation at every turn, and have succeeded in slowing it down even as the Biden administration seeks to crack down on anti-competitive behavior. It remains to be seen whether this will become an issue in the Senate campaign.7. Following Rep. Jamaal Bowman's boycott of Israeli President Isaac Herzog's address to Congress, Jewish Insider reports that  AIPAC – among the most powerful Washington lobbies – is pushing for Westchester County executive George Latimer to run a primary challenge against Bowman. Historically, AIPAC has been instrumental in keeping progressive voices, and their criticism of Israel, out of the halls of Congress.8. The German news service DW reports that Ukraine has imposed a “ban on Russian-language culture…such as books, music, plays and concerts.” Whatever one's opinions are on the war in Ukraine, this ban approaches dangerous territory of limiting expression for minority groups in the country and could presage more militarized crackdowns on the Russian minority in Ukraine similar to Japanese-Americans during WWII. All parties must come to the table to negotiate an immediate ceasefire and engage in high-level diplomacy; only that can prevent this war spinning into graver and graver circumstances.9. Finally, on July 20th a super-majority of workers at Grindr, the LGBTQ dating app, voted to unionize with the Communications Workers of America, per Kim Kelly. This came as a response, in part, to revelations showing Grindr's new CEO had previously voiced support for anti-LGBTQ politicians on Twitter and via political donations.

On Tuesday, the Senate voted to begin considering the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which authorizes the Department of Defense's annual budget and expenditures. While the bill usually gains widespread bipartisan support, the House's version of the bill faces opposition due to the controversial social issues it addresses. Meanwhile, the House and Senate are hoping that several bipartisan declassification bills related to unidentified anomalous phenomena will provide more transparency surrounding unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs). FOX News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram previews what the week ahead looks like before another summer recess for Congress.

On this Thursday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, country music star Jason Aldean is under fire for releasing his song "Try That In A Small Town," which the left claims have pro-lynching undertones. If you actually listen to the lyrics of the song and watch the music video, that couldn't be further from the truth. All Aldean is doing is promoting small town values that have been completely abandoned by municipalities across the country. Aldean has not backed down and is standing by his song, as he should. We here on the morning show are behind Aldean and his message.

Many Democrats hate Israel. And they are not shy about it. The latest disgusting example is House Progressive Caucus Chairwoman Rep. Pramila Jayapal, who publicly called Israel a "racist state." Jayapal and many other Democrats are also boycotting Wednesday's speech from Israeli President Isaac Herzog to a joint session of Congress.But it's not just demonization of Israeli policies or Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Many prominent leftists also advocate for the Boycott, Divest, & Sanctions (BDS) movement to cripple Israel's economy and openly accuse Israel of engaging in apartheid against the Palestinians.Stop Anti-Semitism Founder Liora Rez joins Sara to explain why this type of hateful rhetoric and the pursuit of anti-Semitic policies destabilize American society and the world. She also explains how Jayapal and figures like Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, and AOC consider themselves "Justice Democrats, " but their goals don't resemble justice at all. Rez also strongly rejects Jayapal's assertion that any criticism of her is rooted in hatred of women and people of color. Rez says your sex and the color of your skin "are not a green light to spew bigotry."
