New numbers show that it has bounced back very very quickly. Its economy has. New jersey has lifted the stayathome order. New york city subways have seen a considerable increase in ridership. And the money from the government is finally flowing to business, and get this, Mortgage Applications are surging, too. Add it all up and it looks like a much stronger summer economy. That outlook helping the market. Caution, however. The Federal Reserve releases its first Economic Forecast in six months this afternoon. That could really move stock prices.

Thats what we are doing today. This is a first step. There is more to come. Paul republican congressman will hurd of texas joins me now. Welcome, congressman, you wrote for us this week, im happy to say in an oped, that federal dollars to local Police Departments should be contingent on those departments meeting federal standards, what specific standards do you have any mind .
