The first in 21 years, and just the third for a sitting president in u. S. History. The president l lamented that te trade deal isnt generating the headlines he believes it he deserves. Today we just had passed the usmca. Its going to take the place of nafta which was a terrible deal and the usmca will probably be second to this witch hunt hoax, which hopefully everyone knows is not going anywhere. There was nothing done wrong of. This was a perfect phone call. Reporter the Government Accountability office potentially gave an assist to democrats on thursday as it released a report saying the Trump Administration did not adhere to the law last year when it delayed military aid to ukraine, which is at the center of the impeachment effort.

Fox business has learned white house economic add advisor lary kudlow is working with members of congress on a tax cut package that could include an increase in the earned income tax credit, a cut in corporate and individual tax rates and lower payroll taxes. Sources say the proposal could be submitted to Congress Next month as part of the white house budget even though it may face opposition. Lauren california is looking at a tax hike, weighing taxing Large Companies with highly paid ceos. The size of the tax increase would depend on how much more a ceo makes compared to the companys workers. State officials estimate the new tax could bring in more than 4 billion and that money could be used to offset the cost of providing public assistance to californias low paid workers. Tracee sticking with california, california may be hiking taxes for companies, but its looking to cut traffic fines for low income drivers. The latest state Budget Proposal would cut the fines in half. The reduced fines would you a ply to those at 135 of the poverty line or a family of four who makes roughly 27,000 a year.

All the things that President Trump has been doing with china, the tariffs which have been working beautifully, have been able to shift the supply chain out of china and a lot of thats coming back to america. Lauren that was President Trumps top trade advisor, Peter Navarro on the benefit of this weeks trade wins. Joel griffith is the Heritage Research fellow. He joins us now. Good morning. Happy friday to you. Its a happy friday because weve had several big wins for trade under this countrys belt. Do you see more jobs coming back to the u. S. As a result of china and usmca. I dont know about jobs coming back to the u. S. But i see more jobs in general and thats the goal. This is going to really give businesses a lot more certainity when it comes to investment. That means more things will be produced here, it means more innovation will occur here. That dozen happens jobs across does enhance jobs across a number of sectors. This is going to restore savings to American Consumers. The tariffs weve seen the past two years, theyve added 500 to 1,000 per family every year. These are needless costs. This is a needless tax on American Consumers and thankfully most of these are going to be going by the wayside this coming year. Lauren theyre still on though, thats one of the enforcement mechanisms. For the china agreement a number of the tariffs will be reduced but stay in place and the ones that were threatened for now will not be implemented. The tariffs in the china deal, thats to the tune of 60 billion per year. That is a substantial cost on consumers. Lauren speaking of usmca and this was interesting, there were 10 senators that voted against it and one of them was a republican, pat toomey of pennsylvania and that was his point. He said usmca is great for workers, not great for consumers because it might mean higher prices. Would you respond to that . We need to look at the big picture here. There are concerns that the usmca, particularly with the labor provisions, environmental provisions that were put in place, thats an inappropriate tool using a trade agreement. However, overall, this is a big net improvement than what we are dealing with. In fact, in some ways its improvement on nafta. There are more ip protections, also protections for the ecommerce industry so you can trade across borders. Lauren for the average american, what is the biggest change that theyll see or benefit theyll see because of usmca . The biggest benefit with this is really for business certainity. There are some modest improvements from nafta, from 20 years ago. The big improvement is businesses are going to have more certainity on investment thats highly important. The only way that we see a real increase in standard of living from population increase and technology and businesses, theyre not if they dont have the certainity to invest and actually do the longterm planning, that impacts that productivity and impacts the standard of living for all of us. Lauren joel griffith, good to see you. Thank you for joining us. Tracee up next, checking bags at the airport is about to get priceyer. How you can avoid the extra fees.

Lauren you better go shop around, to quote the song. Brett flickinger is here this morning to talk about shopping. Were redeeming our gift cards tomorrow, National Gift card redemption day. Especially with 3 billion in gift cards not being redeemed, with the lsu tigers winning the national championship, a great day to buy lsu jerseys, or Clemson Tigers for their Prior National championships, redeem the gift cards for the national champs. Lauren look at you, tying in the news. You led with it. Im a fast follow rer. Laurenfollower. Lauren when dok the sale when the gift card is redeemed, at the time you buy it or the time you redeem it. They only redeem it with the sale. Theres states like new york state, if a gift card is unredeemed, the state takes the money instead of letting the retailers get it, so its putting more pressure on profits for the retailers to pay the taxes for the Shopping Centers and shopping mall. Tracee that doesnt sound fair. Department stores are still having a hard time. When i was out there shopping over the holiday season, i didnt feel like it was too crowded. I didnt feel like many people were there. Are they all online . Theyre online. The u. S. Department of commerce numbers, online is now bigger than the 11 biggest sectors in retail, bigger than food retail, bigger than Department Stores, bigger than everything. The only thing thats bigger than online is auto. So the shoppers have shifted and youre right, the stores are really empty because you have a whole generation of mbas and the male monarchy running retailers that dont have deference to the workers, to the shoppers, dont know the business. So frozen 2, there could be major theme events, and they dont merchandise to the popular themes because theyre out of touch with consumers and theyre out of touch with the store leaders and the store workers. Lauren theres a disconnect. When you do shop in the Department Stores, would you say the workers are friendly. Tracee i was going to get to that, the service. That might be one thing possibly keeping people away, what do you think . The service has downshifted and a big part of that is lack of leadership from the ceos and executive committees and the boards that rarely go to the stores, the workers are overworked, their hours are cut, being asked to do too much and they are never able to give common sense feedback to improve the companys perform machines and the shoppers performance to the leaders because the leaders are like louis the 16th, monarchs and dictators, rather than democrats with small ds in terms of participating in management and leadership. Lauren the male bosses are rude is what i think you just said. Male bosses, especially if theyre mb as and have no to low store experience. Theyre really rude. When you have European Holding companies, the dutch and belgians, theyre even ruder. Lauren take a that o that on. Everyone go shopping this weekend and smile. Great report on the lsu story who became champions. Tracee i think we know who youre rooting for. All three major u. S. Averages ended the day yesterday in record territory.

A house rebuttal is due tuesday at noon and then Opening Statements begin on tuesday at 1 00 p. M. Tracee, lauren. Tracee thank you very much. Joining me now to break it all down is criminal defense attorney and former prosecutor, david bruno. Good morning, david. Good morning, tracee. Tracee what do you you expect from the hearing . The big day will be tuesday. Looks like schumer will call for a vote on witnesses. What the democrats need, they need four republicans to vote yes on the ability to call witnesses. Its either going to be a very quick trial or if live witnesses are called, well, buckle up. The democrats want mulvaney and bolton and some others and the republicans want adam schiff, hunter biden, joe biden. That could go on for a long time if witnesses are called. Tracee do you think thats going to happen . Do you expect those witnesss in. Theres reporting on this and its close. There are some that believe there are four republicans, some are saying theres three. Its going to come down to the wire. Its a tough vote for everybody on that day because the world is watching. Tracee i want to ask about the senators who are president al candidates. Can they be impartial, what do you sunshine. No, i mean what do you sunshine. Think . No, i mean, no. Look at the public statements made on this. The president ial candidates have bigger issues. They cant campaign. This is a heated democratic primary in iowa and the other states. They cant bring cell phones into the chamber, they cant talk and theyre going to have to be there for every day of the trial, not campaigning. Tracee do they remove themselves . Do you see that happening . From the hearing itself . Absolutely not. This is one of the most important things in history. There are only 100 senses tosser that are part of this and theyre one of 100. So i dont see them removing themselves from that. If anything, i would see them dropping out, like clop char for example. Tracee i want to ask about the colleged a missions scandal. Youve been following this for us. Lori loughlin and her husband going to be in court today. They have a new defense. They say they thought they were engaging in a practice of he dog which is something that is regularly accepted for College Admissions candidates who donate money in hopes of getting noticed a little bit more. But there are emails coming out from her husband of course saying, well, that they knew they were kind of in on this scam. Where does this go now . The emails is the new news. So we really dont get a lot of discovery until trial on these types of cases. We get initial affidavit of arrest and then sometimes there are motions filed and there was a motion filed by loughlin and they allege the governments was holding back exculpatory evidence. This is an email from singer to the husband, asking for a picture with the daughter on the erg, thats a rogue machine, in workout clothes like a real at lead. Lik like a real athlete. That. The response from the husband is got it all, profile is being made as a she was not on the rowing team. We get the emails and thats was forwarded to lori loughlin. Its a little piece. We dont have everything in the case. But it is a tell. If theyre making an argument that they thought this was a legitimate contribution, then that email goes against it. Asking for Something Like a real athlete and i got it, its a problem for both lori and her husband. Tracee so much on this story. Very fascinating. Lauren, over to you. Lauren dr.

Little ca capillaries that burst in the whites of the eyes when somebody is strangled, its an indicator of possible strangulation.

Lauren he said it was very unusual, especially in a prison situation, that epsteins cause of death was changed to hanging just five days after being deemed inconclusive. Tracee facebooks focus on another lawsuit for potential rivals to the company are suing to force Mark Zuckerberg to sell the majority stake in the company of.

Company to reach a 1 trillion market cap. Big tech is now worth over 5 trillion. Have some of the tech stocks become too expensive . We ask that question to jim russo, the chief investment strategist at altrius capital management. Has tech gotten ahead of itself . As yogi bea as yow give yogg, its dadeja vu all over again. Amazons of the world, netflixs of the world, are in the same space, its one of the things where i think you cannot have to swing at this pitch, to use that, you can let the pitch go by and not have to purchase that company at these valuations. Lauren youre saying away from amazon, facebook, microsoft. All of the fang stocks i would avoid. We still own apple. I think apple is reaso reasonaby priced. We sold microsoft last year. At this point apple were getting closer and closer its been a Wonderful Company for us, obviously. Lauren how is it, then, thatat alphabet just became the Third Company to have and a hold a 1 trillion dollars market cap. A lot of folks are saying you saw the runup in the shares when the cofounder step aside and theyre letting the ceo run things because hes probably more friendly to shareholders, you might see the first ever dividend, for instance. Right. I think what you have is this proliferation of passive investing and etfs. So the big get bigger. You have the algorithms driving investors into the stocks. Because theyre the highest market cap, they they continue to get bigger. At some point, call me old fashioned, but what you pay for something matters and i think at this point you have to be really careful on some of these highly priced stocks. Lauren if youre not in it, how do you win it . If you look at the fang stocks, theyre almost a fifth of the s p 500. So many people are invested to follow the s p 500. So if those stocks go up, its almost like the rest of the market goes up, and vice versa. Its true. Youre missing some of the gains if youre not in the stocks because theyre driving the performance, the fang stocks are really pushing it. You can still participate in the nice rally weve had by owning plenty of other companies that are priced much cheaper right now. Lauren how do you feel about tesla and apple . We spoke about apple. Tesla too, really expensive stock, in the 500s. Certainly these are the most shorted companies and hedge funds are starting to say they look like theyre going to tumble to. I would never short a cold stock, as much respect as i have for elon musk. I wouldnt own tesla at this l valuation. Lauren recession, wilbur ross told lou dobbs last night no recession is coming, not in the year 2021. Would you agree . I agree. I dont think we have a recession in the near term. You never know, of course. The Economic Indicators are looking very good right now. Lauren you wont go against a cold stock, the Big Tech Companies are too expensive and no recession, jim, well take.
