squarely on donald trump and his baseless conspiracy theories that the 2020 election was stolen. listen to this. president trump ignored the rulings of our nation s courts. he ignored his own campaign leadership, his white house staff, many republican state officials. he ignored the department of justice and the department of homeland security. president trump invested millions of dollars of campaign funds, purposely spreading false information, running ads he knew were false and convincing millions of americans that the election was corrupt and that he was the true president. as you will see, this misinformation campaign provoked the violence on january 6th. cheney played testimony from the top u.s. general, confirming it was then vice president mike pence, not donald trump who called in the national guard to quell the riot. she also showed video of trump s closest advisers, including his own daughter rejecting his voter fraud claims. listen here. i had three discussio
In remarks this week, i feel like this is an issue everyone is trying to get their head around. That is the lack of wage growth.

The role of maybe unions in all of this. Megan this is talked about quite a bit. Over the past three decades as we saw membership d

Thats according to the labor department, almost in line with estimates. The Unemployment Rate ticks down to 4. 6 , the lowest level in nine years. Hourly average earnings falling 0. 1 , the final number before the meeting this month. Mike, we took your temperature on it. We talked to jan about essentially what hes calling full employment and whether and when wages catch up. Thats right.

The market maybe dodged a slight bull net the sense it cements the certainty about december and what the fed will do.
