author jeff quinn. you open your most recent book, waco, with this quote from rick perlstein, the historian. a fog of cross-cut motives and narratives, the complexity that defies storybook simplicity at a that is usually the way history happens. i think the quote is the most cogent of ever heard. rick does a tremendous job himself and it's true. know historic event happens in a vacuum. it's tied to many other things. and that's the fascination in research and writing on narrative, nonfiction, history. what i read a quote from you as well, and this is from 2021 in the cleburne times review. a lot of people no longer want to buy nonfiction to learn things. they want nfiction books to reflect what they already believe. want books to reinforce their opinions. they want books that tell them everything they believe is absolutely right and that the other side is even worse than they thought. if you take a look at the bestseller list for nonfiction, for the last several years, there's three categories. generall

caller: hello jeff and peter. god bless both of y'all. now, jeff. jeff: you broke up there. cornelius, keep your mouth close to your phone. caller: can you hear me now? you know the story of the lone ranger? jeff: yes i do. i grew up wanting to be tonto when i was a little boy. caller: [laughter] that's great. there is a guy named basch reeves that was an african-american ranger in the obama territories what the real lone ranger was based on. i saw a smithsonian museum show about that. they had clayton moore's granddaughter on their talking about that. he had an indian companion. he worked for the hanging judge in the oklahoma territories. he was an escaped slave and everything after the civil war. he headed towards oklahoma. they say he was greater than bat masterson. peter: let's get a comment from jeff. thanks, cornelius. jeff: cornelius makes an excellent point. and that is another reason why studying history, researching it, writing about it, is important. particularly, minority americans have been so misrepresented throughout history. there is a feeling right now that

jeff: the u.s.or market slow down notably last month and looked weaker than expected, creating just over 100,000 jobs. that is down significantly. the unemployment rate ticked up again to 4.3%. that is the highest since late 2021. the reaction to today's report is raising questions about whether the federal reserve has waited too long to cut interest rates. an economist is among those who have been very vocal about this. he is the chief economic advisor at allianz. thank you for joining us. first a question about this jobs report. what does this tell us about where the economy is right now? >> the economy is weakening. at a faster rate than most people expected. including the federal reserve. jeff: is this the direct result of the fed strategy of keeping interest rates high to fight in laois and? >> it is. it was meant to slow the economy. the question is do you get a normalization where you get something worse? to use economic language, do you get a soft landing where you sacrifice some growth but

jeff, what is your take? we know that the iran and hezbollah have been threatening retaliation for the assassination of those leaders for now weeks. why was yesterday the time why now? was that important? was it lack of progress for ceasefire talks or sending a message? what is your take from what you're hearing? i mean, all of it's speculation, but it could be quite the opposite that progress is being made. one person here on the ground who's very familiar with the situation in israel, told me that maybe the sides are starting to get close, that a deal is coming closer and closer than it's ever been. and hezbollah or israel decided maybe this was their last opportunity to get in a few shots before the cease fire deal, and presumptively a peace deal goes into effect. so the deal could be closer than it's ever been. it also could be falling apart. you know, they really haven't said too much about what's going on in cairo or in qatar, but it could be one of those situations where it's getting so close. and beca

all right, jeff paul, joining us at this hour, jeff, thank you. i want to welcome in our next guest, behnam ben taleblu has been having a conversation with us overnight as we continue to unpack what is happening as the israelis try to defend themselves against hezbollah, ben, i want to ask you a question. if you'll pardon me for broadening out just a bit. we all understand that iran is behind hezbollah. but i'm curious, given the recent death of their president, how much of this impacts what they are attempting to do in the region. does that throw them off kilter at all? do they double down on their attacks on israel? help me make sense of that. well, certainly the iranians are looking at the success of the israeli preemptive strike and are worried. again, any blow to hezbollah is a blow to the major military force that they have been for just a moment there. we were asking him his perspective on what perhaps could be behind iran's continued support of hezbollah, to say nothing of the houthis and so many other groups and hamas. you could certainly

jeff zeleny: it opened the door to a series of questions. and whether or not this doctor was seeing the president every time, it actually didn't matter. it turned out he did not. this doctor did examine the president during his physical, but it just kept the questions alive. pamela brown (voiceover): calls grew louder for the president to undergo cognitive testing. sanjay gupta: anyone over the age of 65, again, should be getting this sort of testing. pamela brown (voiceover): including from our own chief medical correspondent, dr. sanjay gupta, who wrote an essay advocating for biden to get tested after his june debate performance raised concerns about his mental and physical acuity. sanjay gupta: there was cause for concern, stumbling of speech, sort of confused, rambling at times, and then also motor symptoms, lack of expression in the face. none of those things are diagnostic of anything. i just want to be clear about that. but in aggregate, they are flags. pamela brown (voiceover): after his halting debate performance, biden dropped in

jeff yeah. it will be interesting to see how we separate what happened this morning and what happens nearly on a daily basis. we get these alerts all the time in the north that there are rockets and drones that are being intercepted by israel's iron dome. those are using groups of a dozen or two dozen nowhere near what happened. this morning. so it will be interesting to see how we separate those two events. will that keep going on? and another point, one of our crew members brought up out here is, is a peace deal. getting close to wrapping up. and it was this either israel's or hezbollah's last opportunity to get a few shots in because hezbollah sort of has put itself in a corner, and so is iran saying that the only thing holding them back from launching this retaliatory attack was a potential cease fire deal. so is the cease fire deal, in fact, actually getting close? and this was just hezbollah or iran's or israel's last chance to get a strike in before there is a peace deal, because obviousl

jeff. paul is there. it's now late morning hours. jeff. after this preemptive and retaliatory strikes back and forth, what are you learning at this hour? well, i can tell you right now it appears, you know, traffic isn't quite as heavy as it normally would be on this particular day here in tel avi, you don't see quite as many cars out and about. and you certainly don't see the amount of people out exercising along the beach here in tel aviv. and that's a big part to do with this emergency order that israel has ordered for the entire country for the next 48 hours. the israeli security cabinet is meeting as we speak, discussing and trying to decide what is next. we're also getting some new information from hezbollah. they put out a statement a short time ago saying in part, our military operation for today has been completed and accomplished. we're also expecting that leader hassan nasrallah will speak later in the day. now, previously, hezbollah referred to what had happened earlier in the day as the, quote, first phase. and it very well co

and jeff, kevin, now bringing in has some questions. kevin. thank you. jeff. i want to ask what, if anything, have we heard from israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu? obviously, this is a circumstance where you might imagine he might have a message for not just the israeli people, but for the global community. have you heard anything about that? well, obviously, you know, netanyahu has always toed the line that, you know, israel has the right to defend itself. the u.s. has backed him up on that. that israel does have the right to defend itself. we know that the cabinet will be getting together today at some point this will obviously be a huge topic of conversation. and again, the country right now is under this emergency situation. so a very high alert for not only military personnel but also for just people in general here in israel. this sort of brings them back to a different period in this country where not only worrying about a war that they have going on in the south, but but one that appears to be opening up a little wider in the north as well. kev

thanks, jeff.a growing number of people getting hurt riding those electric bikes and electric scooters. what some bay ar cities are doing people getting hurt on those electric bikes, according to a ucsf study. in 2022, more than 23,000 e-bike riders nationally were injured. that's up 100% over the year before. most of the injuries were not among teenagers. the median age for the injured bicyclist was 39 and for the people hurt on scooters was 30. however, as you might know, in the past two years since that data, more teenagers are now riding those electric bikes. so the data essentially needs to be updated. a lot of it is people using it to get to work, get around the city, and i think that explains the reason why we're seeing a higher median age. yeah. many communities are looking at new ways to regulate these e-bikes. san jose state bans electric bikes and scooters on campus, and the danville city council voted to ban e-bikes on sidewalks in the business district. there's a new proposal tonight t
