Inflation plowed ahead at its fastest 12-month pace in nearly 40 years. This comes amid a shortage of goods and workers and on the heels of unprecedented cash flowing through the U.S. economy from Congress and the Federal Reserve. Congress often talks tough about reining in Wall Street. But now there's growing pressure on Capitol Hill to curb lawmakers' own trading. CNBC's Ylan Mui reports on a bill intended to push restrictions on how lawmakers trade stocks. NBC Digital's Marc Caputo reports that Congressman Matt Gaetz's ex-girlfriend testified to a grand jury today in the sex crimes probe against him. CNBC's Valerie Castro reports on a judge's decision that the sexual assault civil suit can go forward against Britain's Prince Andrew. Plus, CNBC's Wilfred Frost reports Boris Johnson has apologized today for attending a garden party during the country's Covid lockdown last year.

Found In Translation Episode 322: Host Ray Collazo shares his thoughts on historic moment of Puerto Rican resistance, calling on Governor Ricardo Rossello, Jr. to resign. Collazo discusses how we got to this moment and how Rossello's shameful performance on Fox New epitomizes the colonial mentality. What challenges lay ahead for Puerto Rican people? He predicts fate of Governor Rossello and reveals who he believes should run for governor (you may be surprised). Listen to the personal thoughts of Collazo as a Puerto Rican from the diaspora on what this has taught him about leadership and faith in his people. The 2nd half of the episode is a reply of portion of last week's show where Collazo and guest host Elbert Garcia discuss what President Trump's racist attacks against "The Squad" set in motion for upcoming 2020 elections with Nicole Acevedo of NBC Digital. Needless to say, we maybe closer to a race war than we ever would have imagined. Collazo and Garcia also provide their first preview of next Democratic Debates' matchups. Por favor #RickyRenuncia. We have freed ourselves from the colonial mentality through this moment. You need to do the same.

“FCU: Fact Checker’s Unit” follows the adventures of two overzealous fact checkers – Russell (Karinen) and Dylan (Sacca) – who work at the popular Dictum magazine and stop at nothing to check the most absurd celebrity facts. No star is too big and no fact too obscure or arcane to run down for accuracy’s sake. The series will feature globally recognizable guest stars as themselves and check facts such as those concerning Luke Perry: (Is Luke’s house really haunted?), Alex Trebek (Does Alex shave against the grain?), Dave Navarro (Does Dave insist that the tears of a virgin, beetles and finger sandwiches be provided backstage at any venue he plays?) and Karolina Kurkova (Does Karolina use SPF 125 at the beach?). At NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, students pointed and laughed at Peter Karinen and Brian Sacca. Thus, in 2003, it made sense to start cashing in on this phenomenon and take to the stage at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatres in NYC and LA. Their most acclaimed oeuvre, "Pete and Brian's One Man Show," simultaneously touched and offended capacity audiences on both coasts, and was an official selection of the 2007 HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen. Since then, Pete and Brian have written two almost-funny-enough pilots for 20th Century Fox, amassed an almost-impressive online following by making a ton of web videos -- including two seasons of the series "Single Dads" for Fox International Channels -- and have written for numerous award shows, including the MTV Movie Awards. Their first foray into fact checking came in 2008, when their short film "FCU: Fact Checkers Unit" (co-created with Dan Beers and starring Bill Murray) was an official selection of the Sundance Film Festival. They are currently developing two almost-original screenplays with Ben Stiller's Red Hour Films and "Zombieland" director Ruben Fleischer.
