melanie: thank you so much.how long we will need oil and gas, energy transitions take many, many decades, frankly, but there are very different profiles for oil and gas use. oil is used primarily for transportation. i know everyone is excited about electric vehicles. we have about 250 million acid your vehicles on the road in the united states. in 2021, less than 1% of those 250 million vehicles were electric vehicles. we expect that number to go up to about 13% by 2035. so, the transition from oil for passenger vehicles, light duty vehicles is a long-term transition. the lifespan of a car is 12 years. just stop turn over will take a long time. alix: to that point, you have to plug all of them in. even if you get to 13%, you have to plug all of them in. you have talked at length about an interesting calculation you have done. if we get to climate goals by 2030, this is how many transmission lines we will need. this is shovel-ready products we need to do, stuff that we need to build, copper, nickel, carbon fiber

melanie: that is the question.have had a slew of economic data telling the bank it can stop tomorrow. we have had pmi's falling in recent months. we had the ecb bank earnings survey which came out yesterday which showed that firms' demand for credit has crashed. this morning, we had money data which continued to be recessionary. they are pointing to deposits being pulled out and lending falling off a cliff, but the ecb is not focusing on that. since its june meeting, it is decided to instead focus on the tight labor market and acceleration in wage growth, which is interesting. these are lagging data. the hot data from june will only get worse. that will be when we see q2 numbers in august. even its focus has been on -- given its focus has been on these indicators, the risks are toward a september height. for us to pull that hike out of our forecast, the bank we need to let go of this focus it has on wage data, which we do not think is likely. we are expecting tomorrow to be a bit of a dovish shift in the way lagard

melanie zanona has the details. >> reporter: cnn has learned that the far right house freedom caucus did vote to remove marjorie taylor greene, a donald trump ally, from the hard line group. this vote according to sources occurred just before the july 4th recess. in talking to my sources the reason that they voted to remove her boils down to really two reasons. one, that greene has become a staunch ally of gop leadership and specifically speaker kevin mccarthy, and, two, she has been publicly critical of a number of her house freedom caucus colleagues. she publicly criticized freedom caucus members when they didn't support kevin mccarthy for the speakership, she publicly criticized members when they didn't fall in line with the bipartisan debt ceiling deal. and the real straw that broke the camera's back according to a mefbt freedom caucus was a heated confrontation that mrgree had with lauren boebert. greene had confirmed to cnn at the time that she called boebert a little b word, swore at her, they had this private confrontation on the house floor. and we did reach out to green oig
