Good to see you. Great to be here. Obviously, tax reform bill is first on our list today, waiting for the president s signature. Meantime Corporate America promising more pay for workers at t, our parent, comcast, and others unveiling bonuses or an investment in training questions still remains in terms of how the tech world will be impacted by the bill weve had some discussions about how they dont have as much to gain on the rate, per se, as some other sectors, but i wonder what you make of the responses from Corporate America in the first day. I think a lot of corporations are cashing in on our new personal saver culture and p. R.

John ford has the morning off. We start with this big story about big business and the white house. Two of the president s Advisory Councils disbanding after multiple ceos dropping out citing the president s response to the violence in charlottesville. Among the ceos speaking out, jamie dimon, jeffrey immelt, mary barra, etna ceo mark bertoli bertolini. I think well talk to bob crandall in just a moment, guys, but were all trying to process the dramatic decision, how it went down, a lot of good cnbc reporting on that and what the significance of this move is going to be.

On the website the restaurant says it has stood the test of time including the great fires of portsmouth in the early 1800s. Sadly, today that narrative changed forever.
