the program. the u.s. economy added more jobs than expected last month, marking the 42nd executive months of job growth. unemployment also inched up to 4.1%, the first time it has gone above 4% in two years. there were other signs of a cooling market. for a deeper look at what this means for the economy, i am joined by by guest. good to see you. what do these numbers say to you? is it a sign that the economy may be cooling? >> certainly market watchers have been looking at that for the longest time because the fed had to ratchet up rates after an error coming out of the pandemic and leaving rates too low for too long.

it is awed, are you rooting for good news? yes if you are the white house. maybe bad news if you are investors or traders. and yet the market is at an all-time high, real estate is at an all-time high. it is a real debate on wall street. do we really need that cut -- rate cuts? >> what about those interest-rate cuts? wages have cooled. wage growth has generally been declining since march of 2022. some economists are arguing that it is time for the fed to cut interest rates. >> there is now risk from an institutional perspective.

i think you have covered this left and right. they can handle it. there is no sense of a crisis out there. there are streaks of weakness in the economy. inflation is a little too high for comfort. >> there is no urgency but what other sides might they be looking for? how much of a cooling at a slowdown the think is needed? >> can you imagine 2008? prices were in a freefall. you mentioned we had job growth for 42 straight months. the fed has saved a lot of powder for those crises. we have not tasted anything like a crisis since the onset of the

pandemic. there was a banking swoon a couple of sprigs ago. that stuff is short-lived. it is so difficult to put out. >> what are some of the unknowns we are not thinking about? what will you be watching for the months ahead? >> i'm thinking about the election and volatility. if you remember what markets did a long time ago during the 2000 recount. i am thinking about institutional cracks. in commercial real estate right now. we saw a headline this week about student loan debt area so much of it remains unpaid. what if it comes back online and everybody is stuck with a bill? the big news is that fed took up rates.

>> there is an interesting nugget from this report. teen summer employment is at its highest rate since 2007. more than 37 percent of teenagers are now working. what does that say to you? >> try running a theme park in this environment without teens who are out there eager to make money. you try running a diner or any kind of hospitality business. it is been an ongoing strong point in the jobs numbers. it is hard to get people to show up for job interviews and keep that job. this is opened up job opportunities for teenagers.

>> we have less than a minute left but i have to ask you big picture. we talk about this gap between what we are seeing the economy and what people feel. >> i think it is still a bifurcation. if you have stocks or real estate or crypto. you can more than absorb this inflation. if you're one of the millions of americans who cannot make emergency expenses, all of this news about asset markets is total comfort. what will happen if the fed takes rates down and stimulates the mortgage market that does not really needed? it is a confusing time. >> always good to see you.

boxes in elections. president biden own wisconsin by one of the smallest margins in the country. we are following this closely. tell us about what the court decided and is this the final word before the election? >> it is the final word. the liberal majority overturned a two-year-old case. it was a pretty fractured decision. enough to say wisconsin state law did not explicitly allow drop boxes. the liberals said they got it wrong. this is a chance to redo it. they took the case. throughout the process, conservatives have said they knew of this outcome. they have been taking shots of the liberal saying they are running policy for the

democrats. it is a clear decision and it clears things up for wisconsin in advance of the august primary and the november election. reporter: this is a complete flip from the conservative court just over a year ago. this could affect an enormous amount of ballots. according to a survey, some 40% of early votes were cast using these ballot boxes. do we know if the presence of these boxes as we now expect wisconsin benefit one party or the other? >> republicans and especially in the wake of the donald trump election conspiracy say it is about democratic fraud. these were used in most companies -- counties. we are expecting some of these to go back. it may benefit those areas more because of the local or does not have local office hours, they can drop off the ballot. especially if the mail is not

consistent running up to election day. we expect them to come back. madison and milwaukee have said they will be ready. more areas around the state will make the decision. reporter: this was a part of conspiracy theories and some of the lies about the 2020 election. on a more basic level, how do we know these are secure? >> we know in madison they are located outside police stations, fire departments there are cameras nearby so they can be monitored. they are dropped and locked and only have certain access. in some respects they are more secure than your mailbox. it has the same security you would expect. reporter: this is an enormous decision. do you think is more broadly into the state politics surrounding your supreme court and what decisions and issues could be ahead? >> this week the same liberal majority announced they will

revisit the abortion ban. it dates back to 1849. they are taking a couple of cases. one but examine whether to overturn the law. the second much more broadly would look at if there is a counsel shall write to abortion -- constitutional right to abortion. the way it is being set for briefings, they will be ready for arguments in the fall. that means that decision could come down before the end of the year. >> thank you for covering this all. we will be seeing you soon at the republican convention in milwaukee in just over a week. >> cannot wait to see you. ♪ >> at a campaign event in wisconsin this afternoon, the president vowed to stay in the race for the white house. >> they are trying to push me out of the race.

let me say this as clearly as i can. i am staying in the race! i will beat donald trump. >> for analysis on the tenuous week of the democratic party, we turn to our guests. a new york times columnist and a boston globe columnist. let's take stock of where we are right now. we have seen three house democrats publicly called for the president to step aside for the washington post said that mark warner is attempting to pull together democratic senators asking him to leave the race. we are seeing major democratic donors back away, including abigail disney. she said she is stopping all democratic contributions until he is replaced. she said this is realism, not disrespect. biden is a good man and served his country admirably but the

stakes are far too high. can the president change the narrative? >> he has already done what democrats were waiting for. they needed him to make the decision as to whether he would be the nominee. we are past the primaries. voters supporting others say. it would have to be the nominee making that decision and it seems that he has. now the mcchrystal really have a choice. mark warner, the donors, other people do not take the nominee for president. the people have a process do and they have already done that. i agree that this is a crucial moment in time and the threat of democracy that looms with the potential return of donald trump is something that cannot be ignored. i think the more democrats continue to fight and play this game about replacing the president when there is not even an heir apparent, the weaker they are.

we had not heard anything from donald trump this week because he realizes democrats are doing the work or him. >> at this critical moment, how can the president calling concerns that are out there? >> he could take a cognitive test, which i think each do. people are worried about 2027, what he will be like in three years if he is still president. he should take a test and say that. i took this and it is all public coming here it is. he could do that. and i think he should do that. right now there are clouds of witnesses. all of these anonymous stories floating around saying he has been like this for weeks or months. anonymous stories of the white house staff is miserable. and that democrats in congress are really angry at the governors who are supporting him. they do not want to run with him

on top of the ticket. it is very hard to get a sense of where the vibe of the party is. people have been more reconciled to that idea. moving beyond her is a nonstarter. there is some doubt about whether money could flow to any candidate. you see people getting more comfortable with the idea of harris. i don't think this will be over. biden's statement today is pretty definitive. but 72% of americans don't think he is qualified to be president. >> i think you are describing these circles and clouds that are largely happening inside the beltway. that is not where the president will be campaigning. >> i should vote -- point out that their are voter concerns about his age. >> i have by and large heard

from people coast-to-coast to want to focus on beating donald trump. they have just as much agita about this infighting and handwringing as they do about a couple of sentences that joe biden flubbed during the debate. they see this inching closer and closer. we are coming up on both conventions. the time to make a decision is over and i think it democrats pulled together and show half of the fights that republicans have , who have always stood behind donald trump and they have a candidate with a good record who believes in fighting for democracy. the better off the democrats will be even if harris is the candidate. i think it is a little insulting to her to realize that is not happening. i think that decision has to already have been made and joe biden has made it. >> what about the stakes?

we mentioned abigail disney. people have told me they are worried about the focus on this conversation takes the focus off of trump, who is an anti-democratic candidate with authoritarian tendencies who is now newly empowered by the supreme court immunity ruling. the head of the heritage foundation that is running projects 2025 said the country is in what he called the second american revolution and it could be bloodless if the last allows it to be. there is this alarming language. are we losing sight of the stakes? >> i think so. before he went to prison, i went to see steve bannon and interviewed him and i was scared out of my mind. i asked him what would happen. he said it will be nothing like 2017. now we have people who have been vetted and trained and we will go after the deep state. it looked like a dismantling of

the civil service. and that is just the beginning. i think people are losing focus on that. i have been a broken record on this for seven years. it is also true that every american has seen an elderly relative in decline and they know what that looks like. if i can do one bit of random polling, 72% of americans don't think he should run again. if you look at the wall street journal-new york times poll, trump is up by six. biden is at a record low. trump is winning swing states. there is a real cause for concern and if your main goal is to get donald trump not reelected, to me it is a very open question of what the best way to do that is. i'm not one of these people who says he should step down. but i think it is an open question. >> i want to get back to this issue of how we are talking about president trump.

there seems to be an asymmetry of expectations. trump's performance in the debate was filled with misled statements and lies area he often beers off script. do you see this asymmetry affecting the conversation right now? >> 100%. we can talk about mental cognitive test that people can take, but we already know that donald trump has failed moral test, the democracy tests, the insurrection test. if we balance those things, it seems very clear. one thing that this conversation makes us lose sight of is the work of the biden administration and other democrats being already dismantled ever since the supreme court overruled chevron earlier this week. we already have federal judges, one who knocks down a rule that kept people from being bound by noncompete clauses that were

prevented from practicing their livelihoods. another rule that kept federal coverage of transgender health care. this is happening right now. this week. the dominoes are already falling and we have not even gotten to project 2025. that is what i was people in my head is super focused on in the days leading up to these conventions as opposed to calling for the president to be able to say certain words. let's talk about the issues that are important. yamiche: we are about a week out from the republican convention. will biden still be the nominee, what do you think? >> i don't know. i thought a week ago for sure. i don't know. >> i have to believe the president when i say -- he says he is the nominee. >> we are just weeks from these conventions and mere months from the last day of voting on election day. i want to reflect and hear from

you on your expertise and insights in this moment in american political history. how are you looking at this right now? >> i am looking abroad. all around the world we are seeing it with the exception of the you take -- u.k. you are seeing right wing governments surging. macron thought we have a disaffected working-class that we will invest massively in. in the north of france. in the u.s. in ohio and upstate new york. these places are doing really well economically. all of these people are feeling upbeat. but that has not helped to at all. the theory that we can economically spring these working classes to go back to the democratic party, that

theory has not been true. because it is a cultural issue, not an economic issue for these voters. that has put biden in a hole and the centerleft in nation after nation. >> i'm looking at home of the present time. we know that donald trump will not get the majority of votes of americans in this upcoming election. but we have an electoral college process that requires people to campaign in that way. we already know joe biden will get more votes. what we need to do is convince people that it is worth it not only sticking by him but in claiming that they are for democracy. republicans remain unified because they have to for survival. they do not have that majority. they stick behind donald trump even long after he is shooting people on fifth avenue. democrats are different beast.

they have different ideas. they're not monolithic. there is a diversity of views. it is not in their dna to just line up behind somebody. but when they see a threat of this clear and if they do not organize, look at what the labour party did in england. they got a wide victory. that is what democrats have to do right now. stop the infighting and keep your eyes on the prize. campaign for the majority that you know you actually have among the american people. >> at the end of this week that has felt like a year, it is so valuable to hear from both of you with your insights and expertise. thank you so very much. >> thank you. ♪ >> this a key weekend for

boeing, the justice department, and hundreds of families. the u.s. government is waiting to see if nature airplane manufacturer boeing excessive steel to plead guilty to criminal fraud in connection with deadly crashes in 2018 and 2019. they still have -- killed 346 people. boeing would have to agree to an external monitor. the stop short of imposing more serious criminal charges and penalties that some have asked for. the company is supposed to decide this weekend whether to accept the deal or go to trial. we are joined by someone whose father was killed in the 2019 crash. welcome and thank you for being with us. we don't know what boeing will do but what is your view? you want to see them accept the plea deal? >> at this point the question is

what whether we want to see matters. as the family's. i think we would've wanted the plea deal not to be offered to them in the first place. so we could go to trial. hopefully there would be a hope of justice. i do not expect them not to plead guilty because i do not think any deal can get sweeter than this deal. they have come to an agreement on the extension of the previous deal. >> tommy white think it was a mistake for the department of justice to offer this deal in the first place? >> when a corporation is charged with death and murder of hundreds of people and charged with fraud to begin with and you are given a second chance because they have reached their agreement that they said they would adhere to, you would think they would come down on them a lot harder and actually look to

hold into account not just for failing to comply with the agreement but ao for the death of hundreds of people. it is ridiculous that we are having this conversation. >> you are referring to the previous deal to agreement that was reached between the doj and boeing in which they paid a fine and has some terms that were meant to follow for three years. this is a new deal with what some lawyers are arguing is a more serious criminal charges they would be pleading guilty to. some of the lawyers say this is better than nothing. do you accept that argument? >> i think nothing on top of nothing is still nothing. the death of these people goes unrecognized by these deals. the families are not recognized as victims. the fact that they still have the opportunity to select their independent monitors, which allows them to self regulate.

for me to say that that is better than nothing, nothing on top of nothing is still nothing. >> i know that you have so many others have been fighting for the last five years. i wonder if you think that if they accept this deal, is there a next step for you? do you have any other options moving forward? >> at times it does not feel like we have any other options moving forward. i know the families will not relent. the first deal completely disregarded us. what i know is where there is a well, there is a way. one thing we have is tons of will to make sure this does not become something else that is stuck under a rock or it does not happen to other families. we know if there is an avenue to appeal, we will appeal to whoever we need to if we have to go to the supreme court. >> we know there are 346 stories

behind each of the lives lost. tell us a little bit about what you want to know about your father and what the last two years have been like without him. >> when you say 346 people, it was noxious that many lives messed up by this. it was every other life attached to this. i have watched friends get married, buy houses, going to the careers. while i am losing sleep over when his next crash going to happen? watching boeing go scott free for the death of my father, who was an incredible man. it is the purest souls were on this plane. everybody on there, there -- their family members talk about their mission to go serve in kenya or provide medicine or go to intern for the u.n. there were people doing amazing

things. they were selfless humanitarians on their way to go serve the world. the selfishness of a company like boeing has robbed them and thousands of lives that are connected to them of what they would've brought to this world. it is even difficult trying to think straight and speak straight sometimes because it is like the world stopped moving. one of the most heartbreaking things is looking at the family members who have lost their children and knowing that they will never get to see them learn how to walk, go to school, they will never walk them down the aisle for celebrate these milestones. the thought of other people being in our position is enough to keep us going. the people who were lost were all remarkable souls. my dad would go to the end of the earth for me. that gives me the fire to continue to go to the end of the

earth not just for him but for the next people. >> thank you so much for sharing your father's story. >> thank you. >> we have a standing request into boeing for an interview with the ceo. let's get some more context. what it could mean for the larger industry. you heard the frustration for these families is so real as they seek justice. how did this plea deal end up being offered by the department of justice to boeing in the first place? >> it is heartbreaking listening to that. our hearts go out to those families as they tried to find some kind of justice in the midst of this horrible tragedy. the fact is if you look at

history, the chances of criminal charges against individuals at boeing prevailing in court is not great. if you look at the one and only company in u.s. is three charged with capital charges, they provided oxygen canisters on a flight in 1996. the company faced manslaughter and third-degree murder charges in florida. the charges were dropped. a fine was paid which actually became a donation and the company pled no contest. the department of justice would say that this is a better way to ensure that boeing maintains its game on safety. there will be a monitor. there will be a mandatory board of directors meeting with the families. they will have to make

investments in safety. hopefully that will create real-world changes. >> is the company likely to accept the plea deal. if so, what happens then? >> it is a take it or leave it deal. a federal judge is having to approve it or tweak it or modify it. the company faced the uncertainty of a trial. reputational problems. and the fact that this deal indicates no charges will be levied against individuals. the biggest customer for boeing is the federal government. this allows them to continue to do both -- business with the federal government. >> i have to ask, because as reported we do not often see that these investigations are criminalized. this seems to be different. why? >> the aviation industry is

built around the idea of making things safer. think about aviation safety. they are afraid that it would hinder the ability to make a nation safer. sometimes real decisions have to be made quickly to fix it from them of the problems with an aircraft. the fact that there was not candor on their part may have ultimately led to that second trash. it is too bad that we have to be in this position. >> our aviation correspondent. thank you for speaking with us. >> no problem. ♪ >> as we celebrate what it means
