christina, let me start with you with nuts and bolt, where do things go from here and what we re seeing in the market so far. that had been a question mark. i guess i should reference your song. i saw the sign. they saw the sign the fed was going to hike. the markets are reacting positively at the moment. the dow is up 1%. you re seeing the nasdaq in positive territory. the s&p 500 in positive territory. the concerning point is jerome powell, the chair fed is speak and they changed course and became more aggressive once they received the inflation data we got last friday showing our prices have climbed 8.6%. that s the highest we have seen since 1981. because of that big jump in inflation, the fact it s continuing to climb higher, the fed needs to get more aggressive and seems like they are most likely going to continue on this trajectory even a month from now. that will have a trickle effect on the economy. he s still speaking at the moment but here is what he had to say
The fda s advisory committee so expect there will be a green light in the next few days hopefully and parents may expect most likely that kids under 5 will have access to either of these vaccines within the next week. do you want your kids to have two shots versus three and fundamentally there s no performance to the vaccines and don t listen to the percentages that get thrown around if you re parents out there watching right now, the key point is that both sets of vaccines keep your kiddos out of the hospital to the same degree, whether or not these vaccines are in different performing whether it comes to testing positive and that remains to be seen. all this data is relatively early in terms of preventing a positive test and they re not that good at preventing positive tests and they re excellent at keeping the kids out of the hospital. that s what matters. what s your message to parents and this is something i ve heard in other circles as well who may feel it has it in because t

Unconstitutional, historically unprecedented and illegal but jacob says it wouldn t have worked because the state legislatures and the courts were not going to magically change their position and get on board with this wild plan that eastman had. the fact we see all this planning in the lead up to january 6th from extremists as laid out in this new court document and from eastman and trump, just captures the extent to which there s a massive amount of build up going into this day that historically not had much build up at all. the levels of pressure on the vice president from members of the trump administration and as we re seeing increasingly from these far right violent extremists were so immense. i think the way that pressure played out internally was something that the committee will be very eager to hear about from greg jacob and the other pence witness who is testify tomorrow. betsy, thanks to you.
