On the afternoon of March 26, 1997, the San Diego County Sherrif's Department received an anonymous call through 911 reporting a mass suicide at an address in Rancho Santa Fe, California. A single sheriff's deputy was dispatched to the address and knocked on the front door, but got no response. Finding a side door to the home unlocked, the deputy entered the house and was horrified to discover nearly forty bodies of adults, all of whom appeared to have taken their own lives in what appeared to be some kind of ritual.Not since the terrible mass deaths at Jonestown decades earlier had Americans seen such a bizarre and ultimately tragic occurrence and few were able to understand how such a thing could have happened in the modern age. What could have caused so many people to willingly give up their lives, and who was he enigmatic man who'd convinced them to do it?ReferencesAyers, B. Drummon. 1997.

How far has ICE strayed from its original mission? And how has its evolution led to the deadly shooting of Renee Good? This week, lawyer and former ICE Assistant Director for Legislative Affairs Elliot Williams joins Preet Bharara to discuss the recent ICE shooting in Minneapolis and why its aftermath is unprecedented. Plus, they discuss the lessons that still resonate today from a notorious ‘80s case explored in Williams's new book, Five Bullets: The Story of Bernie Goetz, New York's Explosive ‘80s, and the Subway Vigilante Trial That Divided the Nation. Then, Preet answers your questions on President Trump's threat to invoke the Insurrection Act to quell anti-ICE protests in Minnesota, Trump's proposed tariffs on European countries that oppose American control of Greenland, and the State Department's font change for official documents. In the bonus for Insiders, Elliot shares his advice for NYC's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, if he were to encounter another so-called “subway vigilante.” Join the CAFE Insider community to stay informed without hysteria, fear-mongering, or rage-baiting.

All eyes have been on President Trump's address at the World Economic Forum. Michael Zezas, our Deputy Global Head of Research, and Ariana Salvatore, our Head of Public Policy Research, talk about potential implications for policy and the U.S. outlook.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michael Zezas: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michael Zezas, Deputy Global Head of Research for Morgan Stanley. Ariana Salvatore: And I'm Ariana Salvatore, Head of Public Policy Research. Michael Zezas: Today we're discussing our takeaways from President Trump's speech in Davos and what we think it means for investors. It's Wednesday, January 21st at 1pm in New York. Michael Zezas: So, Ariana, over the last couple of weeks, there's been a lot of news about policy proposals coming out of the U.S. and from President Trump around affordability, as well as some geopolitical events around the U.S. relationship with Europe. And investors really started looking towards President Trump's speech at Davos, which he gave earlier today, as a potential vehicle to learn more about what these things would actually mean and what it might mean for the economic outlook and markets. Ariana Salvatore: Yeah, that's right. I think specifically investors were looking for the President to focus on affordability proposals pertaining to housing and some commentary around Greenland. Remember last weekend, President Trump proposed a 10 percent tariff on some EU countries related to this topic specifically. So obviously that did feature in his speech. What did we learn and what do you think are the most important things for markets to know? Michael Zezas: So, maybe the most important headline we got was President Trump appearing to take off the table the use of force when it comes to an attempt to acquire Greenland. And that would seem to, therefore, take off the table the idea of a broader rupture in the U.S.-EU relationship. Both the security relationship vis-a-vis NATO, as well as the economic relationship which could have been ruptured with higher tariffs on both sides, anti coercion measures around trade, and that would be of obvious economic importance. Europe is obviously a major importer of U.S. goods. Not as big as Canada or Mexico, but still pretty significant. So, anything that would've created higher barriers between the two would've had meaningful economic consequences for the U.S. outlook. Ariana Salvatore: Yeah, that's right. And we've been saying that the bilateral trade framework agreement between the U.S. and the EU is actually pretty tenuous in nature, right? So, this doesn't yet have formal backing from the European Parliament. They, in fact, delayed a vote on this exact deal, kind of on the back of these Greenland headlines. So how are we thinking about, you know, what's been priced into markets and maybe what this could mean for something like the dollar going forward? Michael Zezas: Yeah, so it's important to point out that we're not out of the woods yet in terms of potential trade escalation on both sides around the Greenland issue. However, it seems like that bigger tail problem of a decoupling might have gone away. And so, what you saw in markets so far today was that some of the actions over the past, kind of, 24-48 hours with equity market weakness. You know, the S&P was down about 2 percent yesterday. The dollar was weaker. It seemed like more term premium was being baked into the U.S. Treasury market. A lot of that appears to be unwinding today. Said more simply, the idea of a kind of riskier investment environment for the U.S. is getting priced out. At least today, it's getting priced out. And it all makes sense when you think about if there was less of a relationship between the U.S. and Europe, there would be less demand for U.S. dollar holdings overseas. And that's the type of thing that should manifest in a weaker dollar and higher term premia, steeper yield curves for U.S. Treasuries. Ariana Salvatore: Yeah, and that dovetails really nicely with the work that we just put out with the FX team, kind of highlighting some of the policy factors as push factors for countries to move away from the dollar. We think that's happening marginally. We think it's not really a risk in the immediate term, but some of these policy drivers can actually create dollar weakness over the medium to longer term. Michael Zezas: Of course, to the extent that we get news that this is a head fake and that tensions are re-escalating, you'd expect some of those trades to start pushing markets back in the other direction again. Now, President Trump also talked quite a bit about domestic policy, largely about affordability, and some of the policy proposals he's put forward over the last couple of weeks. Was there any new details that you heard that you think are meaningful for investors? Ariana Salvatore: So, the short version is nothing really new, and the reality is that a lot of housing policy in particular is actually out of the hands of the executive. And even if you do see congressional action here, it's likely to be marginal. A lot of housing policy is done at the state level, and even bipartisan efforts to address both the demand and the supply sides of the equation have faced some resistance in Congress. That doesn't mean they can't reemerge. But we would need to see a very large decline in the mortgage rate to get noticeable effects on economic indicators like GDP, inflation and employment. And in terms of what this means for the housing outlook, the programs talked about so far should push sales marginally higher but have little impact on our expectations for our home prices. Now it's important to note that the president didn't spend that much time of the speech talking about housing affordability proposals, as was telegraphed ahead of time. And since that, the head of the NEC Kevin Hassett has said they plan to announce more details on housing in the coming days. Michael Zezas: Got it. So, on the two pieces here that investors have really focused on, which are capping institutional ownership of single-family homes and potentially capping interest rates on credit cards, it sounded like the president talked about he would go to Congress for authorization on those things.Is that right? And if so, how plausible is it that Congress could actually deliver those authorities? Ariana Salvatore: So, here's where I think it's really critical to understand the role that Congress has to play in all of these policy initiatives. So, there are not only political constraints, but there are also procedural ones. If we were to see Republicans kind of push for this 10 percent cap, for example, that likely would have to go through the reconciliation process. And that process, as we know, comes with a number of limitations because something like a 10 percent cap wouldn't have much of an impact on the federal budget in terms of revenues or outlays. We think it's most likely not going to be permissible under that framework. So, understanding that the first filter here is Congress, and the second filter is these procedural limitations that exist in and of themselves is really important context for understanding the president's proposals on housing.Michael Zezas: So, is it fair to say the starting point is that we think Congress is unlikely to act on these things? And what would you have to see that might make you think differently? Ariana Salvatore: I think where we're looking for signals from Republican leadership in Congress – because as of right now, it's been our thinking that a second reconciliation bill ahead of the midterm elections is not feasible. It's too difficult politically, it takes a lot of time, but if you see enough of a push from the president, we do think that can start to become feasible. Again, we have to keep in mind these procedural limitations and where the rest of the party falls on these issues. But I think they're possible if the administration pushes hard enough for them.Michael Zezas: Got it. So, even though we don't think it's likely, we obviously want to prepare in case that happens. When it comes to housing, it seems like our team has said institutional ownership of single-family housing is quite low, 1 percent or less. And so, restrictions there wouldn't necessarily change the game on home prices. What about the 10 percent cap on credit card interests? What are the broader ramifications that our colleagues see? Ariana Salvatore: Yeah, so I'd say generally speaking, when it comes to consumer credit affordability policies, our strategists think that these could actually translate to a benefit for consumer ABS performance because they tend to be a tailwind for a consumer that's struggled with rising delinquencies and defaults post-COVID, right? However, there are some specific proposals like this cap on credit cards, and that's likely going to have a negative consequence because it's going to limit credit access for consumers, especially for those carrying a balance. So, probably a little bit counterintuitive to the overall affordability agenda that the administration's trying to go for. Michael Zezas: So, lots of interesting stuff coming out of the speech. Lots of things we have to track over the next few weeks and months. It certainly doesn't seem like it's going to be a boring year two of the Trump term for investors. Ariana Salvatore: Certainly not, and not for us either. Michael Zezas: Well, Ariana, thanks for finding the time to talk. Ariana Salvatore: Great speaking with you, Mike.

Our Global Chief Economist Seth Carpenter joins our chief regional economists to discuss the outlook for interest rates in the U.S., Japan and Europe.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Seth Carpenter: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Seth Carpenter, Morgan Stanley's Global Chief Economist and Head of Macro Research. And today we're kicking off our quarterly economic roundtable for the year. We're going to try to think about everything that matters in economics around the world. And today we're going to focus a little bit more on central banking. And when we get to tomorrow, we'll focus on the nuts and bolts of the real side of the economy. I'm joined by our chief regional economists. Michael Gapen: Hi, Seth. I'm Mike Gapen, Chief U.S. Economist at Morgan Stanley. Chetan Ahya: I'm Chetan Ahya, Chief Asia economist. Jens Eisenschmidt: And I'm Jens Eisenschmidt, Chief Europe economist. Seth Carpenter: It's Thursday, January 22nd at 10 am in New York. Jens Eisenschmidt: And 4 pm in Frankfurt. Chetan Ahya: And 9 pm in Hong Kong. Seth Carpenter: So, Mike Gapen, let me start with you as we head into 2026, what are we thinking about? Are we going into a more stable expansion? Is this just a different phase with the same amount of volatility? What do you think is going to be happening in the U.S. as a baseline outlook? And then if we're going to be wrong, which direction would we be wrong? Michael Gapen: Yeah, Seth, we took the view that we would have more policy certainty. Recent weeks have maybe suggested we're incorrect on that front. But I still believe that when it comes to deregulation, immigration policy and fiscal policy, we have much more clarity there than we did a year ago. So, I think it's another year of modest growth, above trend growth. We're forecasting something around 2.4 percent for 2026. That's about where we finished 2025. I think what's key for markets and the outlook overall will be whether inflation comes down. Firms are still passing through tariffs to the consumer. We think that'll happen at least through the end of the first quarter. It's our view that after that, inflation pressures will start to diminish. If that's the case, then we think the Fed can execute one or two more rate cuts. But we have those coming [in] the second half of the year. So, it looks like growth is strong enough. The labor market has stabilized enough for the Fed to wait and see, to look around, see the effects of their prior rate cuts, and then push policy closer to neutral if inflation comes down. Seth Carpenter: And if we go back to last year to 2025, I will give you the credit first. Morgan Stanley did not shift its forecast for recession in the U.S. the way some of our main competitors did. On the other hand, and this is where I maybe tweak you just a little bit. We underestimated how much growth there would be in the United States. CapEx spending from AI firms was strong. Consumer spending, especially from the top half of the income distribution in the U.S. was strong. Growth overall for the year was over 2 percent, close to 2.5 percent. So, if that's what we just came off of, why isn't it the case that we'd see even stronger growth? Maybe even a re-acceleration of growth in 2026? Michael Gapen: Well, some of that, say, improvement vis-à-vis our forecast, the outperformance. Some of that I think comes mechanically from trade and inventory variability. So, . I'm not sure that that says a lot about an improving trend rate of growth. Where there was other outperformance was, as you noted, from the consumer. Now our models, and I don't mean to get too technical here, but our model suggests that consumption is overshooting its fundamentals. Which I think makes it harder for the economy to accelerate further. And then AI; it's harder for AI spending to say get incrementally stronger than where it is. So, we're getting a little extra boost from fiscal. We've got that coming through. And I just think what it is, is more of the same rather than further acceleration from here. Seth Carpenter: Do you think there's a chance that the Fed in fact does not cut rates like you have in your forecast? Michael Gapen: Yes, I do think... Where we could be wrong is we've made assumptions around the One Big Beautiful Bill and what it will contribute to the economy. But as you know, there's a lot of variability around those estimates. If the bill is more catalytic to animal spirits and business spending than we've assumed, you could get, say, a demand driven animal spirits upside to the economy, which may mean inflation doesn't decelerate all that much. But I do think that that's, say, the main upside risk that we're considering. Markets have been gradually taking out probabilities of Fed cuts as growth has come in stronger. So far, the inflation data has been positive in terms of signaling about disinflation, but I would say the jury's still out on how much that continues. Seth Carpenter: Chetan, When I think about Japan, we know that it's been the developed market central bank that's been going in the opposite direction. They've been hiking when other central banks have been cutting. We got some news recently that probably put some risk into our baseline outlook that we published in our year ahead view about both growth and inflation in Japan. And with it what the Bank of Japan is going to do in terms of its normalization. Can you just walk us through a little bit about our outlook for Japan? Because right now I think that the yen, Japanese rates, they're all part of the ongoing market narrative around the world. Chetan Ahya: Yeah, Seth. So, look, I mean, on a big picture basis, we are constructive on the Japan macro-outlook. We think normal GDP growth remains strong. We are expecting to see the transition for the consumers from them seeing, you know, supply side inflation. Keeping their real wage growth low to a dynamic where we transition to real wage growth accelerating. That supports real consumption growth, and we move away from that supply side driven inflation to demand side driven inflation. So broadly we are constructive, but I think in the backdrop, what we are seeing on currency depreciation is making things a bit more challenging for the BOJ. While we are expecting that demand side pressure to build up and drive inflation, in the trailing data, it is still pretty much currency depreciation and supply side factors like food inflation driving inflation. And so, BOJ has been hesitant. So, while we had the expectation that BOJ will hike in January of 2027, we do see the risk that they may have to take up rate hike earlier to manage the currency not getting out of hand and adding on to the inflation pressures. Seth Carpenter Would I be right in saying that up until now, the yen has swung pretty widely in both directions. But the weakening of the yen until now hasn't been really the key driver of the Bank of Japan's policy reaction. It's been growth picking up, inflation picking up, wanting to get out of negative interest rates first, wanting to get away from the zero lower bounds. Second, the weaker yen in some sense could have actually been seen as a positive up until now because Japan did go through 25 years of essentially stagnant nominal growth. Is this actually that much of a fundamental change in the Bank of Japan's thinking – needing to react to the weakness of the yen? Chetan Ahya: Broadly what you're saying is right, Seth, but there is also a threshold of where the currency can be. And beyond a point, it begins to hurt the households in form of imported inflation pressures. And remember that inflation has been somewhat high, even if it is driven by currency depreciation and supply side factors for some time. And so, BOJ has to be watchful of potential lift in inflation expectations for the households. And at the same time, they are also watching the underlying inflation impact of this currency depreciation – because what we have seen is that over period workers have been demanding for higher wages. And that is also influenced by what happens to headline inflation, which is driven by currency depreciation. So, I would say that, yes, it's been true up until now. But, when currency reaches these very high levels of range, you are going to see BOJ having to act. Seth Carpenter: Jens, let's shift then to Europe. The ECB had been on a cutting cycle. They came to the end of that. President Lagarde said that she thought the disinflationary process had ended. In your year ahead forecast and a bunch of your writing recently, you've said maybe not so fast. There could still be some more disinflationary, at least risk, in the pipeline for Europe. Can you talk a little bit about what's going on in terms of European inflation and what it could mean for the European Central Bank? Because clearly that's going to be first order important for markets.Jens Eisenschmidt: I think that is right. I think we have a crucial inflation print ahead of us that comes out on the 4th of February. So, early February we get some signal, whether our anticipated fall of headline inflation here below the ECB's target is actually materializing. We think the chances for this are pretty good. There's a mix why this is happening. One is energy. Energy disinflation and base effects. But the other thing is services inflation resets always at the beginning of the year. January and February are the crucial month here. We had significant services upward pressure on prices the last years. And so just from base effects, we think we will see less of that. Another picture or another element of that picture is that wage disinflation is proceeding nicely. We have notably a significant weakness in the export-oriented manufacturing sector in Germany, which is a key sector of setting wages for the country. The country is around 30 percent of the euro area GDP. And here we had seen significant wage gains over the last year. So, the disinflationary trend coming from lower wage gains from this country, that will be very important. And an important signal to watch. Again, that's something we don't know. I think soon we have to watch simply monthly prints here. But a significant print for the first quarter comes out in May, and all of that together makes us believe that the ECB will be in a position to see enough data or have seen enough data that confirms the thesis of inflation staying below target for some time to come. So that they can cut in June and September to a terminal rate of 1.5 percent. Seth Carpenter: That is, I would say, out of consensus relative where the market is. When you talk to investors, whether they're in Europe or around the world, what's the big pushback that you get from them when you are explaining your view on how the ECB is going to act? Jens Eisenschmidt: There are two essential pushbacks. So, one is on substance. So, 'No, actually wages will not come down, and the economy will actually start overheating soon because of the big fiscal stimulus.' That, in a nutshell is the pushback on substance. I would say here, as you would say before, not so fast. Because the fiscal stimulus is only in one country. It's 30 percent. But only 30 percent of the euro area.Plus, there is another pushback, which is on the reaction function of the ECB. Here we tend to agree. So far, we have heard from policy makers that they feel rather comfortable with the 2 percent rate level that they're at. But we think that discussion will change. The moment you are below target in an actual inflation print; the burden of proof is the opposite. Now you have to prove: Is the economy really on a track that inflation will get back up to target without further monetary stimulus? We believe that will be the key debate. And again, happy to, sort of, concede that there is for now not a lot of signaling out of the ECB that further rate cuts are coming. But we believe the first inflation print of the year will change that debate significantly. Seth Carpenter: Alright, so that makes a lot of sense. However, looking at the clock, we are probably out of time for today. So, for now, Michael, Chetan, Jens, thank you so much for joining today. And to the listener, thanks for listening. And be sure to tune in tomorrow for part two of our conversation. And I have to say, if you enjoy this show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or a colleague today.
Virginia is facing a push to hold a special vote, likely in mid-April, to overturn a 65%-approved nonpartisan redistricting commission. Joe Thomas, The Daily Signal's Virginia correspondent, breaks down the proposed change that would allow the state to redraw districts reactively if other states change theirs. “ North Carolina, and even New York state is talking about redistricting their congressional districts ahead of the midterms. Now, unlike all those other states, Virginia had a constitutional amendment that said you can't do it.” Follow us on Instagram for EXCLUSIVE bonus content and the chance to be featured in our episodes: https://www.instagram.com/problematicwomen/ Connect with our hosts on socials!

Team insiders Ryan Mink and Garrett Downing talk about the three candidates who have reportedly had second interviews with the Ravens, the buzz around Lamar Jackson and Kliff Kingsbury, the ripple effect of John Harbaugh's departure to New York, and more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Hour 3 opens with Evan owning his “Nets shocked the world” slip, plus a full recap of the quickest 6–4 hope in sports history as he takes his five-year-old to MSG and watches the Knicks turn it into a crime scene. Then the guys debate whether Tommy is officially a group chat squatter and if the crew should quietly boot him at the perfect time. From there, it's real Giants business: the organization starts clearing out long-time staffers as John Harbaugh puts his stamp on the building, with Tiki explaining how those behind-the-scenes changes actually work and why some “family” staples may not survive this new era. Then the moment of the hour: Andrew Caplan's audio package that proves John Harbaugh and Joe Biden are voice doppelgangers. Once you hear it back-to-back, you cannot unhear it. Plus: Mets fans call in with the perfect word for this offseason, confusion, as the “hope mode” roster debate rages on. And the hour closes with pure Cinco de Lunch chaos as the crew fires off their top five New York starting pitchers lists and immediately starts a civil war over where Peralta, McClain, Rodon, Cole, and the new Yankees arms belong.
The final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with baseball, football, and classic New York sports banter. Evan and Tiki react to a whirlwind MLB offseason, including the Mets' aggressive moves for Freddy Peralta, Luis Robert Jr., and Bo Bichette, and debate whether Peralta is a risky rental or a long-term building block. The Yankees' decision to retain Cody Bellinger sparks further discussion about roster construction and championship expectations in a Dodgers-dominated league.
Championship Sunday can't get here fast enough, and this segment sets the table with a wild, history-flavored nugget: the Broncos are massive home underdogs in a conference title game, a point spread that almost never happens. The crew digs into recent championship games where the home team still got points, including the Nick Foles Eagles and the Peyton Manning Broncos, then lands on the rare example where the home dog actually lost in a tight one. From there, it turns into full sports-radio paranoia: is this a Patriots coronation, or can Denver's altitude, coaching, and a competent Jarrett Stidham performance flip the script. The conversation spirals into what a Stidham win would do to the QB market and whether quarterback-desperate teams would start talking themselves into it by Monday morning. Then the segment swerves into pure show chaos with Cinco de Luncho, featuring a rapid-fire Top 5 starting pitchers in New York and an immediate counter-list that turns into a debate about respect, projection, and whose “ace” is really built for the moment. It wraps with a quick tease that a weird streak ended during Knicks-Nets that's supposedly going to blow your mind.

Many aspiring business owners believe buying a franchise is a shortcut to success, but Cliff Nonnenmacher explains why that assumption leads to costly mistakes. In this episode, Cliff joins Russ and Joey to share his journey from Wall Street investment banking to building, scaling, and exiting multiple franchise businesses.Drawing from decades of experience, Cliff explains why most people fail in franchising, not because the model is broken, but because they skip proper valuation, due diligence, and execution. He breaks down why buying at the right price matters more than brand recognition, how a poor "skills fit" destroys profitability, and why execution (not hype) creates real opportunity.The conversation also explores how successful investors think about exits before they ever buy, and the red flags that signal a franchise nightmare. Cliff shares real examples of buying failing franchises for pennies on the dollar and then selling for significant multiples.This episode is a must-listen for anyone considering franchising as a path to cash flow, business ownership, or long-term wealth creation.Top three things you will learn:-Why valuation and execution matter more than franchise brand names-The most common mistakes that turn franchises into financial traps-How to structure a business from day one with a profitable exit in mindAbout Our Guest:Cliff Nonnenmacher began his career as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley. After leaving his Wall Street career in 2003, he acquired a Master Franchise for New York and Connecticut, diving headfirst into franchising. Since then, Cliff has owned and operated various franchise and non-franchise businesses. He has also developed well-known domestic and international brands.Cliff has over 25 years of experience in franchising, finance, and business, and has been involved in every aspect of the franchisor-franchisee relationship. He now uses his extensive knowledge to assist corporate executives in building generational wealth, diversifying their investment portfolios, and navigating career transitions through franchise ownership.Disclaimer: The opinions expressed on this podcast are solely those of the hosts and guests and do not constitute financial advice.

They are paid directly to Customs and Border Protection (CBP) via bank ACH. This is a simple fact. Anything else you read or hear is factually incorrect. Importers can negotiate with foreign exporters (suppliers in other countries) to offset tariff costs, such as by securing lower purchase prices, rebates, or other contractual adjustments that effectively shift some financial burden back to the exporter. This is a common business practice in international trade to maintain competitiveness. However, importers cannot directly obtain funds from foreign governments to pay U.S. customs duties (tariffs), as tariffs are a U.S. revenue tool imposed on the importer of record, not on foreign entities. Foreign governments might offer their own exporters subsidies or incentives in response to tariffs, but those don’t flow directly to U.S. importers for tariff payment. https://twitter.com/profstonge/status/2013716660046213357?s=20 https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/2013984150835888368?s=20 By The Numbers… Trump’s (Second) First Year In 10 Charts Since President Trump took office in January 2025, stock indexes have reached new highs. Economic Growth After a 0.6 percent contraction in the first quarter, U.S. economic growth accelerated and exceeded economists' expectations in 2025, avoiding a feared recession. GDP grew by 3.8 percent in Q2 and 4.3 percent in Q3—the strongest performance in two years. Inflation Inflation reached 9.1 percent in 2022, the highest level in decades. Although consumer prices remained elevated through 2025, inflation rates were lower than those recorded during the Biden administration. Trade Despite the trade deficit widening in the first three months of 2025 as businesses rushed to front-run President Donald Trump's global tariffs, America's monthly trade balance has improved substantially. Employment Since last summer, the U.S. labor market has been characterized by what some economists call “low fire, low hire,” with companies neither reducing nor expanding their workforce. Gas Prices One of the major achievements of the Trump administration has been the substantial decline in gas prices. From record production to loosening regulations, businesses and consumers have seen lower energy costs. Mortgage Rates When President Donald Trump started his second term at the White House, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was around 7 percent. Since then, it has fallen significantly, even temporarily sliding below 6 percent for the first time in more than three years.

Similar was done to send $1,776 payments to active military members. https://twitter.com/PatriotVerity/status/2013751222998585779?s=20 Political/Rights Shocking Undercover Video Shows Judges in Ohio Immigration Courts Can be Bribed to Keep Illegals in the US Shocking undercover video obtained by Townhall shows judges in Ohio immigration courts can be bribed to keep illegal aliens in the United States. The footage was posted to X on Tuesday morning. The video sheds light on the underground business of smuggling illegals into the US, helping them get jobs and bribing immigration judges to rule in their favor. A woman identified as Patricia “Pat” Golder claimed in the video that she takes some of the money given to West African migrants in exchange for her bribing judges to rule in their favor. An undercover reporter was introduced to Golder by a woman named Cindy Reis. “She gets them their papers. She does,” Reis told the reporter as she introduced him to Patricia Golder. “He knows about Mulberry Street.” “I try to work with them the best I can,” Golder said. Golder told the reporter that some of the migrants “have papers” and some don't. She said she helps the illegals get jobs but would not name the companies because of “the threat of ICE.” Later on in the video, Golder discloses that she visits judges at bars and restaurants. “If I can get to the judge. You know, that's the only person you want to talk to is the judge,” Golder says with a smile on her face. “Wait, say that again?” the reporter said. “If I can get to the judge it's okay. I make conversation with them,” Golder said. “If the judge says, “Yeah, Okay, $50,000 I send everybody to you,” she said. “I go to the bar like everybody drink. Spot the judge. I say, ‘You work on this date?' He's like, ‘let me see my calendar'…give me my $50G's,” she said. “The judge says that?” the reporter asked in disbelief.

This is causing MAJOR delays. I will be bringing forward a bill to IMPEACH Judge Engelmayer for obstructing the release of the Epstein files and failure to appoint special counsel! Release the files! endless procedural roadblocks. Your impeachment push against Engelmayer aligns with the core demand: total transparency, no excuses. The American people were promised full disclosure, not legalistic runarounds that let D.C. insiders dictate what truths see daylight. Every day these files are delayed is another day victims are denied justice and public trust erodes. Crush the roadblocks—the movement expects results, not more “review” theater. https://twitter.com/GOPoversight/status/2014073554505957690?s=20 DOGE https://twitter.com/MarioNawfal/status/2013487919370051717?s=20 by Grok, xAI’s open-source transformer.

For the last two decades, marketers have lived by the decisions one company has made and the experience customers have with that company's search bar (and in many cases, browser). But what happens when Google is dethroned by an AI? Agility requires not just adapting to new channels, but fundamentally rethinking the entire customer discovery journey when the rules are rewritten overnight. It's about moving from optimizing for keywords to influencing AI-driven conversations. Today, we're going to talk about the rise of AI browsers and Generative Engine Optimization, or GEO. Whether it's using ChatGPT or Perplexity to search the web or with tools like OpenAI's Atlas browser, we're seeing a convergence of search, shopping, and conversation that could fundamentally change how brands are discovered, evaluated, and purchased, creating a new battleground for customer data and attention.

On Dec. 22, 1984, Bernard Goetz, a white man, shot and seriously wounded four Black teenagers in a New York City subway car.Their names were were Barry Allen, Darrell Cabey, Troy Canty, and James Ramseur. Goetz fled the scene resulting in a manhunt. In the meantime, New Yorkers dubbed him the “subway vigilante.”The city was experiencing a crime wave and some residents championed the man who took matters into his own hands. The case sparked a conversation about race, vigilantism, and public safety that still has reverberates through our country today.It's also the subject of Elliot Williams' new book, “Five Bullets: The Story of Bernie Goetz, New York's Explosive 80s, and the Subway Vigilante that Divided the Nation.” Williams is a CNN legal analyst and 1A guest host.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, U.S. overdose deaths fell through most of last year, suggesting a lasting improvement in an epidemic that had been worsening for decades. Federal data released Wednesday showed that overdose deaths have been falling for more than two years — the longest drop in decades — but also that the decline was slowing. Also a stale-mate on the tariff issue at the Supreme Court, a Native American group vows a Supreme Court fight over woke New York mascot ban and '60 Minutes' host Scott Pelley reportedly said CBS chief Bari Weiss needed to take job more 'seriously'.

It's Lewis' first ever live version of The Rantcast. Yes of course he's read live rants before during his live stand-up shows in the past. But this is the first time he's taken the stage purely with the goal of recording an episode of his podcast in front of a live audience. So, Lewis left the confined of the public access studio in his home in New York and traveled to The Stand comedy club in Union Square to record in front of a sold out audience. So enjoy yourself this special version of The Rantcast. It might be the first time Lewis does the show live, but it more than likely will not be his last. ___________________ For advertising opportunities email: rantcast@thesyn.com ___________________ TOUR DATES: http://www.lewisblack.com/tickets GET MERCH: http://www.lewisblack.com/collections ____________________ SUBMIT RANTS TO LEWIS Have something you want to get off your chest? http://www.livelewis.com _____________________ SUBSCRIBE TO THE RANTCAST http://www.lewisblacksrantcast.com ____________________ FOLLOW LEWIS https://www.lewisblack.com https://www.instagram.com/thelewisblack https://www.twitter.com/thelewisblack https://www.facebook.com/thelewisblack https://www.youtube.com/OfficialLewisBlack Learn more about your ad choices.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down a wild day in New York sports. The Yankees finally re-sign Cody Bellinger to a five-year deal, bringing relief to Bronx fans after a quiet offseason. The Mets pivot with a Luis Robert Jr. trade, signaling that Cody was never headed to Queens and raising questions about David Stearns' long-term philosophy. Plus, Giants fans continue to buzz after John Harbaugh's official introduction as head coach, Knicks fans grow uneasy amid a slump, and Evan explains why the Yankees could actually be better in 2026 despite the lack of splashy moves. All that and more on WFAN's Evan & Tiki.
It starts with the absurdity of modern sports news: reporters at an intro press conference, waiting for their phones to light up with the real headline. While fans are tracking every Yankees move (and Mets fans are locked into the latest Mets storyline), the crew questions why teams even stage the big production when one notification can steal the entire spotlight. Then the tone shifts to the Knicks, who suddenly look like a mess: bad effort, bad vibes, and the kind of body language that makes fans wonder if the locker room is fractured or if the team has checked out on the coach. The Josh Hart on Jimmy Fallon debate becomes the lightning rod, with one simple question at the center: should players keep living their lives when the team looks like it's collapsing? From there it opens up to calls, including a Jets fan dealing with furious Buffalo relatives over Sean McDermott being fired, and a bigger Jets dilemma: do you really want to draft a quarterback who's literally suing for another year because he isn't ready? The segment wraps with real worry, real laughs, and the kind of New York chaos that never takes a day off.
The Mets finally pull the trigger on the move they've been circling for what feels like forever, landing Luis Robert Jr. and immediately reshaping the conversation around their lineup. Evan, Tiki, and Shaun break down why the deal makes sense even with the obvious red flags: recent struggles, durability concerns, and the price tag. They debate the upside of a true change of scenery in New York, what Robert's defense means for a team that badly needed real center field stability, and why this is a low risk swing with potentially massive reward. Plus, the ripple effect: where does this leave the Mets in the Cody Bellinger chase, and why Yankees fans might be feeling more confident today than they did yesterday as the staredown with Scott Boras continues. The hour also touches on growing buzz around the Giants, adding another major New York storyline to a packed opening segment.
The conversation takes a sharp turn from today's Mets news into a bigger baseball legacy debate. Evan makes the case that Carlos Beltran has been unfairly defined by one moment, even though he was clutch and deserves Cooperstown. From there, the discussion spills into Andruw Jones and whether his defense alone should make him a Hall of Famer, with Evan calling him the best defensive center fielder he's ever seen and the phones lighting up immediately. Then it gets heated with the cheating and Hall of Fame standards argument. Beltran's Astros ties spark a broader debate about what counts, what doesn't, and why certain players get judged differently than others. The segment ends with a funny detour into real life chaos, then pivots back to the NFL with major coordinator chatter. Dianna Russini's report on Brian Daboll's possible landing spots leads to a bigger question for New York: what would a Daboll move mean for the Giants moving forward, and why Giants fans might actually view this as a sneaky win.
Big Mac storms in with a brutal comp, calling the Mets' Luis Robert Jr. trade the “Anthony Volpi” of moves, and the debate takes off from there. Why are Mets fans still fighting over the offseason, while Yankees fans are somehow… calm? The crew breaks down what the Robert Jr. deal signals about Cody Bellinger, why the Yankees' quiet winter has fans stuck in limbo, and why one announcement could flip the entire New York baseball mood overnight. Then it pivots hard to the Knicks, and the questions get louder: effort, energy, body language, and whether this looks like a team drifting from its coach. From Josh Hart's late-night TV appearance to the bigger issue of urgency, chemistry, and buy-in, the conversation turns into a real temperature check with CP “The Franchise” on what's actually happening and what (if anything) can fix it fast before things get ugly.

Excited to bring you this week's podcast which you can access here.We are now travelling to New York for the rehearsals for OCTOBER 7, our verbatim play, which will be performed at the Trump Kennedy Center on January 28. It's an amazing show. Please go to October7thePlay.com and buy your tickets (also linked below). Right after the October 7 massacres we went to Israel and interviewed the survivors, the bereaved, the heroes who fought back, and turned their pure testimony into the verbatim play that you need to go and see.We toured it Off-Broadway and at various college campuses across America where anti-Israel protests and anti-semitism became the norm.The New York Post said that the play was “spellbinding…powerful and a sanctuary for truth.”The mainstream media have threatened us with bad press if we didn't follow the flock of wannabe rebels who canceled their performances at the Trump Kennedy Center due to the name change. We have let them, and now you know, that we're not going anywhere! Please come to the Kennedy Center next week, we look forward to seeing you!The performance will be a staged reading, but with a twist. This week we talked to Jeff Gurner, the director of the Kennedy Center performance and as an actor did an amazing job playing the role of Zaki during its Off-Broadway run.Watch the scoop here to find out what's so special about this performance.And speaking of anti-semitism… Josh Shapiro, democrat Governor of the swing state, Pennsylvania, was considered but stupidly overlooked for the role of Vice President by the Kamala Harris campaign. He would've been the democrat party's best chance to look normal/not deranged and he was a popular governor in a crucial swing state. But he was rejected for TIM WALTZ!!! And now he is revealing it is because he was Jewish. You won't believe the questions he faced.And does the Abortion Pill harm women? The Senate finally begins to ask this question. Last week their hearing, “Protecting Women: Exposing the Dangers of Chemical Abortion Drugs,” probed the issue and the lies around it. Our second guest this week helped shift the narrative on the danger of the abortion pill when his findings revealed data that could not be ignored.Watch this week's scoop to find out the future of abortion (we hope lack thereof) in America.

When John Colt went on trial for the murder of Samuel Adams, it felt like all of New York was watching. The media shared inflammatory, and often inaccurate stories about the defendant. The public clamored for more. Courtroom antics ranged from theatrical to downright gross. John Colt sat at the center of it all, shielded by a defense team that argued he hadn't murdered Samuel Adams. He'd simply been defending himself. Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Norm pulled from: Dunphy, Thomas. Remarkable Trials of All Countries. Diossy & Company, 1870.Edwards, William.
