calling for snap elections in september philip was appointed after a court relieved president hugo dodd on of his duties he had refused to dissolve parliament and backed the formation of a new coalition government instead thousands have been celebrating in mexico after leaders there reached a deal with the u.s. to cancel threatened trade tariffs the event with mexico's president took place in the town of to one a year the u.s. border reports. o'reilly it was all cheers for mexican president and his will but i thought as he arrived at this rally in downtown t. one of. the event which included a march by local factory workers was initially organized as a protest against u.s. president donald trump's threat to impose up to 25 percent export tariffs on mexico the one they want to lease is here and that is my money for some of those speaking to hundreds of supporters president lopez obrador called for unity among neighbors as he outlined the importance of the relationship between mexico and the united states if either samir see make it go the united states and mexico or not based on neighbor

there are rules the rule in place under dodd—frank.first got they happen again not to mention investing into the recovery act which helped businesses and state and local government and reverse that trend, bailing out the automobile industry which were two out of three were in bankruptcy when president obama took office. a lot of the things present 0bama president obama took office. a lot of the things present obama did were in the end executive action because you lost control of the house into thousand and ten and you never had a congress you could truly work with. that means that donald trump, using a similar executive actions can undo and hasn't done much... elections have consequences and so when you say what is permanent that is why i encourage people to vote. if you wa nt to encourage people to vote. if you want to continue the trajectory i run you have to make sure the people in office reflect the same values. we changed the executive orders that president bush put in place and that is what happens. so much of what you did has be

absolutely, there are rules of the road in place today under dodd—frank that will prevent banks fromt seen any of the kind of abuses that we saw under our watch when we first got there happen again, not to mention investing in the recovery act, which helped businesses and state and local government and reversed that trend. bailing out the automobile industry, that were two out of three automobile manufacturers were in bankruptcy when president obama took office. i guess the bottom line is, a lot of the things that obama did were the result, in the end, of executive action, because after 2010 you lost control of the house, and you never got it back, and you never had a congress you could truly work with. that means that donald trump, using similar executive actions and orders can undo and has undone much of what... that's true, and elections have consequences. and so when you say what's permanent, that is part of why i encourage people to vote, because if you want to continue the trajectory that you're on, then you need to make sure that the people in office reflect the same values. b

those powers were severely restrained in dodd frank so that they have lessened their tool kit, some of tools have been taken away and that's not a good thing. >> i wonder what you made of powell speech about corporate credit, corporate debt, specifically, a couple of weeks ago, and the framework he used was it is not the end of the world, it is not great either. it is somewhere in between how do we work to understand where his thinking is on this. >> well, i have a lot of respect for chairman powell and -- if he says things that are too alarming, the markets get spooked. if he says things that are too tame, has the other effect so he's been judicious and a good leader. but what i'm seeing out there, and i think many are, are an enormously overheated leverage loan market with terms that maybe historically poor, a lot of it is outside of the banking system, but the banking system will be affected by it, so we're seeing a buildup, which you expect to see at the end of a cycle of some dangerous trends >> can't the fed just keep it going for a long time by lowering interest rates, getting b

you look at dodd-frank and the regulations that came out for the big banks. tech is suffering from the same. it is not a republican or democrat thing. it is a thing the american population is looking at. a lot of skepticism of bigger companies. i think seizing on those same populist concerns from both parties, the doj and ftc will look at big companies to see what they are doing. >> line now though? this has been a problem since the financial crisis but weikel after these companies at this point when the economy is doing well and we have an election coming up? or maybe it is because the election is coming up. jeffrey: you do it when you can. i think big tech has largely sidestepped a lot of the issues financial firms have been accused of. this is not the first time it has happened. the clinton administration went after microsoft so we have seen this before. prior to that, a lot of people went after ibm in the late 1980's. this kind of thing ebbs and flows. it is not great to be big. >> europe has been looking at it and whacking out the fines. >> the u.s. anti
