economist mike feroli is with us to address some of this the jefferson bit on the tape yesterday was broadly seen as a signal did you read it that way >> yeah, i did usually the vice chair or vice chair nominee, as you point out, tends to speak for the board and for the chair himself. so, i think that wasn't an accidental or idiosyncratic message that made it into that speech i think it was a deliberate effort to signal they are going to pause or skip at the upcoming meeting. >> does it completely derisk the print tomorrow or is there a number that could be hot or cold enough to change everything? >> yeah, that's something i'm thinking about right now i suppose if we got a hot number enough, even with the message we got from jefferson yesterday, that you could be -- have a hike back on the table. certainly while i do think jefferson was speaking for powell in what he said yesterday, there definitely is a large contingent on the committee who already seems to be favoring a hike at the next meeting irrespective of what we get toek i spoke with a strong enough number, we could still see

that's similar to what we heard from jefferson. he signaled a posit the next meeting, but said it wouldn't mean rate hikes are over. manus: what about the jolts, job openings showing a hot, tight market. that is ahead of the jobs report. do these two pieces of data, are they perhaps less important than the guidance and the rhetoric from the various fed members? >> i pick it just puts the fed in more of a pickle. we have seen nothing but strong data last week out of the u.s. but jobs opening data especially, but don't forget pce friday and a beat in durable goods were substantial. we get u.s. ism manufacturing ahead of the jobs report on friday. perhaps a hot payroll report alongside wage inflation creeping up, could be the one last thing that could change the fed's mind in june. but we have heard so much from fed members lately about this pause, is probably unlikely they have changed their tactic just from one data print given that the jobs print on friday. we did also hear from the fed's president patrick harker yesterday. he did

if it is 1776 washington, adams, jefferson, has decided to negotiate with king george and not have theracter and courage to stand up for independence, freedom -- without freedom and liberty we would be a smaller country. if in 1861 abraham lincoln decided to give the south away, rather than stand up and have the character to say a house divided against itself cannot stand, we would not have the country that we have today. in 1941, if franklin roosevelt had not said the holocaust around the world was something the u.s. was unwilling to live with, we would have been a smaller country today. in 1981, if ronald reagan had been willing to live with a soviet empire, that killed and discriminated against its own people, and squashed its faith, then we would not, nine years later, have seen the falling of the berlin wall, and a free and democratic europe that helps to support the hope and faith of each and every one of those people. our faith teaches us. that character does not mean you're perfect. it does not mean you are free of sin or fault. but what i believe my faith or wires of is -- req

you know secretary of state, but it in in part to help washington find useful jobs for his friends jefferson and hamilton. he says i know i'd like to be chief justice. and even that isn't the end of his career, he goes on as chief justice to negotiate jay's treaty and goes on to be governor of new york. so a lot to research and write about it was it was a fun process? wonderful. um you raise a really interesting question. why is it that jay he doesn't have a statute because he wasn't at the convention. but why is it that the three justices were talking about tonight? bush was watching and john and james wilson. who arguably have far more influence as you say on the constitution itself and some of the actual delegates are less well known and we'll explore that. of course the conversation naval marcus you've written about so many of the early justices, but i want to ask you about james wilson. you have a great piece on wilson as a justice. he was among the most important delegates to the convention who came up with the idea that we the people of the united states as a whole our sovereign and y

alix: also there is the other fed nominees, philip jefferson trying to be confirmed today.overnor lisa cook will extend her term. any fireworks there? kailey: you may see some republicans on the senate banking committee pushed the likes of jefferson and cook to commit to the fight against inflation. adriana kuebler is a lesser known quantity in terms of the fed chair and she would be the first latina to sit on the fed board. senator bob menendez had been pushing for that so you can still see some fireworks in there. there could be some grandstanding. it is the expectation that these nominations should be able to get through the senate banking miti. that happens today before the banking committee hears from chairman powell tomorrow. we are waiting on jay powell to arrive at the house financial services this morning to get this thing going. guy: he has just sat down. it's a clear shot of him now and as soon as we get to the main event, we will bring that to you live. we are ready for that hearing to start. given what we have just heard, what is the powell plate? michael mckee
