and as the pakistani version of history goes, the presser amendment was held in abay answer because of their critical role. and i would ask if you see any dots to connect in tower testimony between the close pakistani alliance and the cold war era and the way it ended with the sanctions imposed by the presser amendment to the later part of your testimony in which you note that pakistan saw the taliban as a strategic instrument it could use to create a government favorable to its interest in afghanistan. the pakistanis played a double game part open ally part koefrt enemy. so do you see any connections between the pakistani version of the history of the presser amendment and the way it ended the alliance and their decisions vis-a-vis the taliban? >> that's a fantastic question and you're really making me think and reach back into history. you know, i do in the sense that a big lesson besides the lack of reliability, the pakistani, a big lesson the pakistanis took from the end of the cold war when they were a frontline ally that could be invaded by the soviets was the u.s. was ephemeral.

speaking of next year and policy for 2025, the market participants will be watching jerome power's pressers and economic projections, so what kind of close are you looking for as to whether we will start to see pauses next year? in the first place, fed officials previously predicted may 4—5 rate cuts, and i suspect the updated forecast would include fewer, maybe three, and the fed is seeing inflation get sticky and a labour market that has not weakened as much as expected, plus the ongoing debate about where the neutral rate is, where policy either stimulates low restricts grow, so the —— stimulates or restricts grow, so they will need to tread this balance, and i think jerome powell will talk today about the idea of remaining data focused and seeing how the economy evolves, and seeing how the economy evolves, and what the donald trump administration does after taking office, were that affect monetary policy as well? —— will. you office, were that affect monetary policy as well? -- will.— policy as well? -- will. you talk about the _ policy as well? -- will. you talk about the dual— policy

policy outlook for 2025, so investors will be watching out for the comments, jerome powell in his pressere economic outlook released alongside the decision, so indications about future decisions on interest rates and many expect this to be a hawkish cut, meaning we will have a pause in cutting interest rates injanuary have a pause in cutting interest rates in january and at least less commitment to cutting them, this is because of the inflation picture which is proving stickier, inflation at 2.7%, above the 2% target, and the labour market remains robust. .

alvin bragg in their presser, essentially as soon as new york authorities have the ability to take him from pennsylvania to new york, that's what they plan to do. they walked the public through these 11 counts including the charge of first-degree murder and the elements are terrorism. listen to jessica tisch speaking at that presser. >> we don't celebrate murderers and we don't lionize the killing of anyone and any attempt to rationalize this is vile to our principles of justice. >> reporter: in addition to laying out the counts here and the actions of luigi mangione, the alleged actions, they also are telling a cultural and sort of contextual communal story about this case here and that's why the terrorism charges are part of this they're going to paint a picture of him establishing not just premeditation in first-degree murder but wanted to incite a movement, copycat violence, the potential change of policy in the united states, and that was all a critical part of this story and this case, too. and i will note later this afternoon in separate unrelated press conferences we expect to

we know the governor as well as jessica tisch, the nypd commissioner, planned to speak at pressers later this afternoon. those are unrelated but no doubt reporters are going to pepper them with questions and try to get additional comment on this case. what we also heard at that presser yesterday and was sort of alluded to in the sound you played a moment ago from d.a. alvin bragg, they're going to be building this larger cultural, contextual story, as they, of course, outlined the elevated charge of first-degree murder and discuss the elements of terrorism here. they're also talking about the fact that in addition to the premeditation to plan and execute this, they are going to say he did this with the intention to create the kind of cultural movement and possible policy discussions we have actually seen unfold over the last several days. so now the broader conversation happening in this country has been tied into this murder case that has been utterly tragic and highly unusual in so many ways, jose. now what's happening on the ground in pennsylvania is official and the community rocked

what do you want to hear later on in this presser? obviously he's pelted with a lot of different questions, a lot of hypothetical stuff and stuff about president trump. what do you want to hear? what kind of clarity would you like to hear? >> i would like to understand the four dots to two dots. i would like to understand if there is a really are talking about a pause in january, or if they are going to continue the discussion about data dependency and sort of pushing things back into the year. i want to hear how concerned he is about the labor market and i want to hear and he has done this in the past, this acknowledgment of the average are pretty meaningless right now in terms of the mean of data. you really have sort of two groups of people, one benefiting hugely on leverage and one the main street versus wall street that aren't and how we deal with that and ultimately this view of is the deficit, national debt not a problem until it's a problem because we're sort of always -- charles: if it's not a problem until it's a problem he

and after the meeting, they have a joint presser. so the, that the, the cut that aside saying that they respect the law of the syrians and they are how they are ready to help students to build their space. and also the, so that's 2 out of this 2 years of the civil war cut that has to be inside the position has been the position i guess, besides, besides the governments. so now let's say that the a team to invest in many sectors, gmc of us see that is the best state of the economies, particularly destroyed by the 15 years of the civil war. and definitely need these americans investments that pace and cut that say that it's ready to invest to several seconds here, but particularly the poor state full see force and add a just acted on that as well. come by. i'm gonna shut as well. instead of got that is going to be given the priority, particularly as got. that is one of the meetings today you have in the global energy sector. and also some of the setup has invited to us in, you mean been, i'm of the sunny to visit syria. it's not clear

with -- presser, talking about reciprocity this is bullish, i don't know if stocks went down because of that or not. i think that is a bullish answer. steve moore, coming back to other matter, there is still a lot of rangelling -- wrangling going to president not made up his mind, looks like republican senate wants to delay tax cuts to second reconciliation bill. looks like the house not so much. there ison is only 2 vote, i don't know how many bites out of apple you get, plbless you for sneezing, they should make up their mind that point one, and point two, i don't know why they can't do one huge reconciliation bill a tax cuts, border, you know, you name it. defense that will go in there. permitting for liquid gold, i do don't f understand why they can't do it at once. >> donald trump is so popular. he has a political capital, that i have not seen since ronaldrat reagan came in, do you not want a delay, you want to side the moment, i think -- you want to seize the moment, i think they should do everything, the oil policy, and deregulation. the border wall and do the tax cut at once

donald trump is well versed, he's capable, he did an impromptu hour and a half presser yesterday and as one host pointed out, he is accessible. take a look. >> i called him and said i wanted a meeting with you. he said no. my point is i was able to get to him by dialling his phone. that might be completely leap leap and you are like i can't believe people know this guy's phone number. the reverse of that, if i were to want to connect with the vp harris or president biden there is 50 people between me and that. i could write a note that maybe we could get said somebody... something might end up in a mailbox near them.

but at this point, police have not held a presser on this since wednesday morning, shortly after thiszen attack happened. and what we heard from mayor eric adams this morning is that they are probably not going to be saying much, because they don't want to jeopardize anything in this investigation. but he says that the police are sifting through a lot of information, but that we may not hear from them again until there is a big break in this case or the suspect in this case is arrested. andrea? >> and jim cavanaugh, "the new york times" has called the suspect a shrewd and elusive operator. do you agree with that? because he clearly made some mistakes. he took down his mask, he abandoned the shell casings, he went into the starbucks, he dropped a water bottle. this is not -- and he was staying in a hostile with roommates. he doesn't seem like a highly paid assassin. >> i give a little pushback on that assessment. i think he's a rank amateur. he did almost everything wrong. you know, after a careful viewing of the shooting, if you watch it very slowly, his gun, he fires a shot and mr. t

actually be done and i think that's kind of the big question that remains both today, both for this presser> and i saw there have been a couple of tweets on the topic of how much of the federal work force is working from home, emily, versus being in the office the push to bring them back into the office, i imagine, is really a push to at least utilize the real estate or if everyone can work from home from an efficiency point of view, get rid of the real estate >> reporter: exactly, and i think we might see them come in it's interesting, i have talked with a number of lawmakers, john cornyn, susan collins, who have said we need to get federal workers back in the office five days a week, and they think that's something that could reduce the federal work force, and senator joni ernst leaving the caucus in the senate put together an entire proposal to federal buildings, how much money they are costing, and how that might be a way. you're looking at these costs. you're talking about billions, that's a lot, but it's not hundreds of billions, and it's not trillions and it's not at the level where

so if you get caught in a situation that was avoidable, your taking time away and pressers, precious resources away from people who really need it again, he's expecting wind gusts of up to 58 miles per hour tonight and possibly throughout the weekend. so be careful and watch out for those trees that could come down. i live in santa rosa, philippe djegal all kron. 4 news. we thank you. and we already know that the santa rosa fire department cleared out storm drains. >> and debris from last month's storm. they want residents to be prepared for flooding and especially people who live near small creeks and streams. >> it was like to remind the public that if you don't have to be out in any significant storm don't and then a lot of preparing go around your yard. clear out gutters. clear on trains that you may have around. you are. >> so if you still need some sandbags today, you can go to the free station. on story point, it's open 7 days a week again. that's in santa rosa. kron. four's will continue to bring you live team coverage of the rain and also we are on flood watch though. stay w

media goes after trump who's already doing hour-long press conferences with reporters on policies, pressers years. but first, this: >> you obviously have a sterling reputation for your ability to poll iowa. you've been doing it for a long time. >> i don't see how anybody would look at those numbers and the history in iowa and think that these numbers could have been foretold. elizabeth: yeah, well, we all remember that. days before the election "the des moines register" and pollster ann seltzer made it seem like kamala harris was going to win in a landslide, beat trump. trump's now suing them for, quote, election interference. ben ferguson coming up on the details about that poll that was off, wait for it, by 16 points. but first, let's check in with our friends, the dynamic duo, dagen and charlie hurt, to see what they've got coming up on "the bottom line." charlie: yeah, that's right. we have got a great show. senator james lankford on why democrats are freaking out over the doge push to to streamline the federal government and congressman pete sessions on rampant fraud and corruption in

we'll take you to that presser when it starts. check the markets.ill got plenty of green dow up 260, nasdaq up 170. mark tepper with me and he's brought his stock picks. oh, first pick, salesforce. how convenient that it's up by 9%. >> why the heck would i be talking salesforce and essentially pitching it when it's already up 9% because i think it'll go a heck o of a lt higher so coming into this earnings report there was a lot of questions on whether or not salesforce is a legitimate player in a.i. and they came out and showed everyone they are a legitimate player, this new program they have agent force is really replacing a lot of human tasks, doing a great job of that so far and as we kind of enter next year, we're going to start to see more mondayization of its a.i. stuff and i think this one goes quite a bit higher. stuart: a lot of human tasks that sounds ominous for job losses doesn't it? >> it does, you know? stuart: the machine can do it. >> got to be efficient. stuart: next case is lululemon. why do you like it? >> we bought this around 25

but here's the thing, yesterday's freakout over the fomc, you know, and jay powell's presser, we sawt before, right? it's happened before, this sort of tan thrum. this is the -- tantrum. this is the spike in the vix, the so-called fear index. this is when the bank of japan said, hey, they hiked rates and said we're going to continue to hike rates. wall street went nuts. the nikkei went completely apart. but guess what? on a percentage basis yesterday's eruption, the second biggest move in the history of the fear index. 74% higher, just absolute carnage. everyone was afraid. sell, sell, sell. so, again, if this carnage here was able to get the bank, the central bankers to sort of say, okay, we changed our minds, maybe that was the goal here, right? go so nuts, so crazy that jay powell, whatever he's got on the drawing board, he reconsiders. and, by the way, it wouldn't be the first time that's happened. these are the times the vix has pond more than 50% in a single -- popped more than 50% in a single session. a month later it's come down every single time. so guess what? these tantrum

we'll have much more from trump's presser throughout the show tonight. but joining us now, first, south carolina senator lindsey graham is with us, senator. look, you're as involved in in homeland security and national security as anybody in washington. do you know anything about these drones? >> well, i know this that the people telling you you have nothing to worry about are the same people in charge of the border? it's not so much lying. it's incompetence. the only way we'll ever convince the american people what's going on here is to have the trump administration level with you. i don't know what's going on. i've never been more worried about an attack on the homeland than i am right now. the border is completely broken. we've got a chance to control our border early on in congress. i hope we're smart enough to take it. we're playing russian roulette with our national security. but this is a combination of years of being lied to and incompetency coming together. why are all these sightings in november? there's something new going on. this was the peo

thanks again for doing this follow-up presser. i want to put in to context and perspective perhaps that this was an offshore earthquake. 7 point. oh, a lot of people reaching out to us that they were in the 1989 san francisco one, which was smaller. so what are the similarities? and the differences in an offshore earthquake? a land mass earthquake. >> the things that affect how much shaking people field is how far they are from or hear from generated and how deep that earthquake is in the cross. so in this case, the earthquake is not particularly deep. we're still working on good estimate, but it's on the order of. and the 20 kilometers deep end it, but it's fairly far off shore. so if you're quick happens further where there's less shaken and in the case of the 1989 earthquake, you know, kurt underneath the santa cruz mountains in the bay area and the shaking rated under a lot of urban areas. and, you know, a lot of the damage was due to things like week soils liquefaction. and so this because it's farther offshore farther from p

let's bring in cnn's shimon prokupecz, who was at today's presser along with john miller, cnn chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst. shimon first to you take us through what happens to luigi mangione now. >> well, so if the nypd detectives and the manhattan district attorney are on their way over to this area, that means that, you know perhaps maybe there's some chance that they may be able to get a statement from him. i don't know that for sure. obviously but certainly if he hasn't lawyered up and he's willing to speak to them, i do find it interesting that the manhattan district attorney's office is on their way as well, with the nypd detectives. so then from there, you know, he's basically going to have to face a judge in pennsylvania where either he waives extradition or he doesn't, and then he fights it and then there would be a hearing. but presumably he would waive extradition. and then the nypd detectives would then transport him back to manhattan perhaps the midtown north precinct, which is on the west side of manhattan, because that's where the incident occurred. and

he did an impromptu, nearly hour and a half presser yesterday, and his one msdnc host pointed out he is accessible. just ask joe mika. also, take a look. >> i called him and said, i want an interview with you. obviously he said no, but my point is i was able to get to him by dialing his phone. now that might be completely a and you're like, i can't believe people know this guy's phone number. but the reverse of that, if i were to want to connect with vp harris or president biden, there's 50 people between me and them. i could write a note that maybe could get to somebody to get somebody. then through pony express and a pigeon, something might end up in a mailbox near them. and iled djt to say, yo, can i have an interview? and he answered. but i still was able to connect with him, by the way, very nice to donald trump, very nice to take her call. >> very nice to meet with joe and mika. however, i would gently remind the president, not that he's going to listen to me, that they hate him. they're the ones that spread and peddle the lies and conspiracy theories about him. they're the one

thanks again for doing this follow up presser. i want to put into into context and perspective. perhaps that this was an off shore earthquake. 7.0 a lot of people reaching out to us that they were in the 1989 san francisco one, which was smaller. so what are the similarities and the differences in an offshore earthquake or a land mass earthquake? so the things that really affect how much shaking people feel is how far they are from where the earthquake is generated and how deep that earthquake is in the crust. so in this case, the earthquake is not particularly deep. we're still working on a good estimate, but it's on the order of, you know, 10 to 20km deep. and but it's fairly far offshore. so if the earthquake happens farther away, there's less shaking. and in the case of the 1989 earthquake, you know, it occurred underneath the santa cruz mountains in the bay area and the shaking radiated under a lot of urban areas. and, you know, a lot of the damage was due to things like weak soils and liquefaction and so this because it's farther offshore, farther from populated places, we

. >> um i'd imagine in the next presser, they'll be more information. clearly they have. clearly they have a list of uh, clues that they're running on and are aware of the direction he traveled and the way he did it. my assumption is that he was there a day or so if not longer in advance conducting pre-attack surveillance. so it would be good time for nypd to look at those cameras in that location. um, could be a time where he wasn't wearing a mask. a day of the shooting so i think there's some good clues there. i think there's some some understanding of a warning behavior typologies that he's exhibited, like fixation pathway to violence that they can run on and look at as clues to where he may be and where he may be going, may be going. >> i want you both also to weigh in on what what john mueller was just reporting about the fact that law enforcement sources tell cnn the two words that were found on on shell casings, on on shell casings delay and depose, depose written on a shell casing from around that was fired into the victim. delay written on a live round that was n

here to share the best tips and tricks he learned from a full year of globetrotting is brandon pressergood to have you here. tell us about what you set out to do and kind of laying out your year. >> sure. i write a series that bloomberg called two night minimum. we call it internally the obsessively vetted city guides. what i do is i go to a city, spend as much time as i can, go to as many hotels, restaurants, bars, experiences, activities, things to do outside the city, i will eat three dinners and night, four lunches a day to figure out what the best things are for you. vonnie: we are so grateful, brandon. thank you so much. [laughter] one of the things you figured out on your travel, your very onerous travels, was the best new restaurants aren't even restaurants. explain what that means. >> it's been really interesting year. i think the cost of opening a restaurant is prohibitive and there are a lot of people passionate about hospitality and serving and passionate about food. i have seen a lot of people break the mold. one really good example is in toronto, there is a chef who has o
