SEASON 3 EPISODE 130: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) BREAKING NEWS: A Reagan judge, an Obama judge, and a Trump judge walk into a courtroom and rule Trump's "Liberation Day" tariffs - which not only crashed our economy but that of the entire world's - are not a legal use of the 1977 laws empowering him to take actions in the event of an economic emergency. This is not just any court. It's the United States Court of International Trade. Trump already appealed. Stephen Miller already called it a "judicial coup." The fact that America's corporations simply went along with Trump's crap when it knew - as the court knew - this was executive overreach - is its own problem. The halt on the tariffs will itself probably be halted by the appeals. So the re-shaping of the market will be re-re-shaped by the judges, and re-re-re-shaped by the further litigation. That, of course, is not Trump's problem. His only job is to break stuff. SPECIAL COMMENT: Now it's Governor Gretchen Whitmer has learned the lesson - twice. Never appease Trump, never negotiate with Trump, never cooperate with Trump, never support anything Trump wants, never do anything Trump wants. All that registers with him is: you are easier for him to destroy. She sucked up to him. She worked with him. He tricked her into appearing at his photo-op. She hid her face behind a folder like it was a perp walk. Now, he says he's looking into PARDONING THE TERRORISTS CONVICTED OF TRYING TO KIDNAP HER. There is only one way Gretchen Whitmer is going to SURVIVE Trump, Governor. Apple is going to SURVIVE Trump, Tim Cook. There is only one way Columbia is going to SURVIVE Trump, Claire Shipman. There is only one way the White House Correspondents are going to SURVIVE Trump, Eugene Daniels. If you haven’t figured it out yet, I’ll spell it out. Doing what he wants only tells him you will DO WHAT HE WANTS. So he comes back and gives you ANOTHER list of what he wants. He’s a blackmailer. He’s a crooked businessman. He’s a bully. There is only one way to SURVIVE Trump and that is to DESTROY Trump. In a world of White House Correspondents, be the PENTAGON Correspondents. In a world of Apples, be Wal-Mart. In a world of Columbias, be a Harvard. Put your hands on Trump’s shoulders and knee him in the groin. Stand up to him and you can then own HIM, like the Harvard newspaper op-ed writer who has proposed settling the disputes between her school and Trump by challenging Secretary of "Education" Linda McMahon, the wife of the wrestling slime bag, to a Steel Cage Match. ALSO: TRUMP CONFESSES to operating on Russia's behalf and to protecting Putin. HE LEARNS for the first time of the Wall Street analysts mocking him with the tariff acronym "TACO" ("Trump Always Chickens Out") and he chickens out. Turns out Tom Homan also worked for the top Private Prison company. A woman who contributed a million to Trump gets a pardon for her jailbird son. Anybody remember Rudy Giuliani's alleged boast he could sell you a pardon for two million, to be split between him and Trump. And a past president's grandson has died. The president he was the grandson of, left office in... 1845. B-Block (33:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Kristi Noem and the camel she rode in on. Jesse Watters and Rep. Tim Burchett try to make fun of men using straws not remembering there's a photo of Trump at Yankee Stadium using a straw. And boy did THIS sound familiar: Rupert Murdoch just buried a New York Post reporter who followed all the rules and instructions Murdoch's minions had laid out for him, because somebody didn't like the story... Just like in 2001 Rupert personally fired ME for doing exactly the same thing (C-Block 43:00 THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL). The punchline is the reporter's name is Josh Kosman and last September he was the guy at The Post who called and told me they were about to update the RFK Jr/Olivia Nuzzi sexting story by claiming I had lived with Olivia. So I busted his scoop and put the story out immediately. Now we're in the Rupert Isn't A Journalist Club. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever felt Wall Street doesn't have your best interest at heart? If so, you're not alone. In today's episode we interview best-selling author and advisor Barry James Dyke. Barry has written three books (with one more coming soon) that peel back the curtain on how Wall Street has systemically transferred the risk of investment losses' to the American consumer while keeping a majority of the profits for themselves. We discuss the hypocrisy found when major banks/financial institutions (and politicians) tell you to speculate with your hard earned dollars while they put their money in non-market correlated assets.

La Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos aprobó de manera efectiva un régimen que demostró ser sumamente exitoso contra la cepa de tuberculosis más resistente a los medicamentos en un experimento pequeño pero innovador. La agencia aprobó el último de los tres medicamentos del régimen, siempre que se use con los otros dos, que fueron aceptados previamente. La tuberculosis ha superado al SIDA como la principal causa de muerte infecciosa del mundo. Si la Organización Mundial de la Salud adopta el F.D.A. aprobación, que generalmente lo hace, el tratamiento pronto podría usarse en todo el mundo. BBC SERIE CONTRA AMLO. El máximo tribunal electoral de México dijo el miércoles que penalizará a los creadores de una serie de televisión después de dictaminar que habían violado las leyes electorales al promover una "campaña sucia" contra el presidente Andrés Manuel López Obrador cuando era candidato. La serie, llamada "Populismo en América Latina" (Populismo en América Latina), presenta un segmento sobre López Obrador junto a ex gobernantes de izquierda sudamericanos como Hugo Chávez de Venezuela y Luiz Inácio Lula de Silva de Brasil. ARISTEGUI   SUBEN LAS ACCIONES, SIGUE LA TORMENTA. Las acciones estadounidenses subieron hoy después del castigador descenso del miércoles, pero los analistas según el NYT dijeron que la montaña rusa estaba lejos de terminar.

REUTERS   REDUCIR TRÁFICO DEL EVEREST.

Billionaires in the News: Billionaire Ray Dalio, CEO of the world’s largest hedge fund Bridgewater Associates, is worried that capitalism might not be working for the majority of people. So, he wrote a long essay about it and posted it to LinkedIn like any normal person would. Then he did interviews about the letter with NPR and 60 Minutes. The letter is a kind of Rosetta Stone that starkly lays out the peculiarities of the billionaire mindset. We didn’t want to get bogged down in a close reading here, but we’re planning a much more developed analysis of it in the near future. Spoiler alert: The letter is a defense of the status quo that targets people who see themselves as part of the “rational center.” Isn’t it funny how “political centrism,” the machine that brought you both Ray Dalio and the crises of capitalism he describes, is still assumed to be where levelheadedness and practicality reside in American politics? https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-how-capitalism-needs-reformed-parts-1-2-ray-dalio?trk=portfolio_article-card_title This week’s census entries (@ 14:00): Our two billionaires for this week are James Coulter and Leslie Alexander. Coulter runs TPG Capital, which is one of the largest private equity firms. He loves to say stuff like "Data is the new oil." We spend a lot of time talking about what private equity is and how it works. The cool thing about private equity is that it has about $2 trillion in assets under management, making it one of the largest sectors of the economy and no one except the super rich are allowed to participate in it. If corporations are people, then PE firms are vampires. Leslie Alexander is the former owner of the Houston Rockets who is mixed up in “securitizing” private student loan debt taken out by students to pay for-profit colleges. Securitizing means “bundling,” which means packaging and reselling debt to investors, which, as far as I know, has caused no problems whatsoever in the past. His student loan company, First Marblehead went bankrupt because of too many people defaulting on loans. The company rebranded as Cognition Financial and the website says they do “private student loan solutions you can trust,” so presumably they’ve fixed all the problems and everything is good now. Episode notes: I didn’t explain the Saudi/Blackstone infrastructure investing deal very clearly, so here’s an article that spells things out. I suggest making sure you read the “skipping deals” and “royal privacy” sections of the article. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-22/how-blackstone-landed-20-billion-from-saudis-for-infrastructure Here’s a link to Josh Kosman’s book on PE: https://www.amazon.com/Buyout-America-Private-Destroying-American/dp/B005DI8VK0

For this special episode Josh Kosman, author of The Buyout of America: How Private Equity Is Destroying Jobs and Killing the American Economy, joins us to offer an explanation of what private equity is and why so many of the billionaires we cover are involved in it. We also discuss the bankruptcy of Toys R Us, how much blame private equity deserves for the wipeout of 33,000 workers, and what we might expect to happen if private equity owned companies continue to go bankrupt.

Marquee private equity firms such as Blackstone Group, Carlyle Group, and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, have grown bigger and more powerful than ever. They have also become the nation's largest employers through the businesses they own. Journalist Josh Kosman, who is a business writer at The New York Post explores private equity's explosive growth and shows how its barons wring profits at the expense of the long-term health of their companies. He argues that excessive debt and mismanagement will likely trigger another economic meltdown by 2018, wiping out more than one million jobs. He also explores the links between the private equity elite and Washington power players, who have helped them escape government scrutiny. The result is a timely book with an important warning for us all. Ralph Nader says this about Josh Kosman's book, The Buyout of America. “Just how do those giant private-equity boys get away with taking over working companies, strip-mining their equity, squeezing out many workers, often ending in bankruptcy, yet still jump ship with big profits, pay very few taxes, and stay out of jail? The answers are in Josh Kosman's The Buyout of America. He believes there is still time to wake up Washington, but only if enough readers themselves heed this properly alarming wake-up call for all Americans.” To contact Josh Kosman, please visit http://www.joshkosman.com

Josh Kosman returns to once again talk about the Private Equity industry, an industry many of us have little knowledge of and an industry that greatly impacts all of us. The facts are that the number two private employer in this country is a Private Equity firm, KKR, and among the top ten private employers in this country five of those companies are PE companies. There is no question that PE firms have a direct impact on our economy and thus should be on the radar screens for anyone following the economy. I asked Josh Kosman to come back on the show to give us an update on PE since we last spoke and to my surprise they are making a dramatic comeback. The reason is simple, with the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates far below the natural rate of interest the investment managers at pensions and mutual funds are looking for some yield to meet the hurdle rate (minimum acceptable rate of return) that is mandated by the fund. In effect, the Fed is pushing money right into the hands of the very PE firms that saddle good American companies with debt while gutting the infrastructure at the same time. It is a deal that leaves the companies unable to compete internationally and makes the US less competitive as a result. Hopefully Josh can give us some good news that things are changing...

Josh Kosman author of the book, The Buyout of America, talks with the Two Beers With Steve crew about how he sees the Next Great Credit Crisis coming from the failures of companies that were acquired by the Private Equity firms during the PE boom of 2000-2007. Steve picked up this book because it is the only new release to be looking at the challenges in front of us and not what has already happened (ie. the housing meltdown or bailouts).
