u. s. big businesses are acting in response to possible slow downs in u. s. consumer spending. of more on this, i'm joined by our chief economic observer, unprofessional, the colleagues under slave folks. that's kind of them to, thanks very much for joining us this afternoon. i am now 1st of all, globally speaking, how do you interpret these layoffs in the context of the feds recent be for 1st off monday? no. so the information which you just covered, they are the week signals. so we have to do some detective work here. let us link these information to the fits decision on interest rate hikes during the last session. in march, mid march, the chairman of the fed actually said they're still a tight labor market and that's why he went for another interest rate hike. so what we are covering now, what we're seeing is that maybe a cooling of the labor market, which might sick know that the fits in the, in the next sessions, monetary policy sessions that might actually decide not to go for further rate hikes. so this would be definitely a good news for the stock market because i don't

u s. but the big one to also watch out for a quiet, subtle one but important one which i called jobless japan, philippines u. s. 3 larger alliance. that is very much about the whole 1st island chain. so not only taiwan, but both east trying to install, trying to be so us is i want to say carolling, but mobilizing all of the st. the allies. and now the philippines, i would argue that is the new star, i like the united states. so this is also a message by us that, hey, it's not just me versus you china. i got a lot of our leasing the region sort of understand the for the being the strategy more particularly president marco's and strategy to deal with beijing. there is the territory disputes in the south china sea and then there is the obligation to washington as being treaty allied with washington. so what exactly is the philippines? a strategy with regard to china? what probably folks can read my books, explain the whole strategy, but to keep it very brief. what i can say is the philippines over the past decade has really realized how serious is the implications for the philippines when it com

u. s . a big pot that was coat just 2 decades ago. australia made 80 percent of its electricity from cold today that share is still around 50 percent. that's twice as much of the u. s. bonds and 25 times more than the u. k. but the fuel it burns at home isn't the only problem. australia also exports more coal than any country except indonesia and all that shows in its politics. for the last decade, a coalition of conservative parties pushed co friendly policies and pushed back on basic climate science. they were kicked out in 2022, giving australia chance to finally clean up its act. but it, with the actions of the old look that gave australia the reputation of the climate villain. when we turn out to international meetings, we always get the wooden spoon we're always cold out as a legged. this is kate crowley. she studied australia's climate policy or the last decade how policy positions. if you read between the lines there always, well will do anything but actually kind of missions who do anythi

u. s. military plans, the ukraine, the ada. sort of the covert action analysis site says the leak and the incentives to blame brush appear to point to a russia a u. s. i big about and disinformation campaign trying to link it to russia. russia who was somehow connected with this major leak. but now it's coming out that this woman was actually working for us or you know, was in the u. s. navy. so i think that very clearly at part of this information operation, i was point to the parallel. you're doing a song when he leaked these incriminating documents about democratic national committee that you know, 2016 election that seemingly an impact on the election may try to link a song with russia and blame him. very likely the same kind of thing is happening here. and they're trying to blame russia for this leak and sustain this narrative that the russians are interfering in us politics and sustain is demon ization of russia. that's fueling domestic public support for a very, a bellicose and confrontational policies towards russia. some poses of news down doing business in africa needs to and will become easier. so sale than either though, the ongoing african co

u. s. we saw her comments on again saying with absolute rubbish that bitcoin mining is destroying the u. s. increasing energy bills, which is absolutely not true at all. if you look at any big money, big companies actually came into the u. s. in the industrialized zones and got them up and running again. the last thing they've done is taken any money out of the us economy and away from consumers. rather they've paid taxes and put money back into specifically in a states like texas, the very probate court. so it's absolute rubbish. it really is, i think, a massive, massive sort of shopping days when you can just send the journalist downside, the side of the whistlebury host and needed immediate access to 5 by this level to contain the casualties up to the democratic republic and are useful for customers like looks like plastic, hold down because we are seeing that the lake is now clear from time to time. and you know, plastic is a product that never decomposes. it destroys the environment. lou, we sell the baskets that were made from waste. that helps us to not be unemployed and little by little. we take steps in this issue, thanks to plastic or a plastic or plays an importa

and that's really impressive for me for such a big and heavy s u v. like the v 6, g t b, b 6, g t is powered by 2 electric motors. a $160.00 kilowatt motor in front, and a brand new $270.00 kilowatt motor at the rear, which he is is a to stay to inverter. that contributes to the machines quick response, ah, for driving fast with the v 6, g, t he on the racetrack is really fun. but you should always drive it as well on the streets. and therefore we are going into stockholm. we are driving into sweden and we are going to have a look how this car drives in every day. behavior says g, t stands for grand theresa mo or grand tour. it should come as no surprise that the v 6 g t allowance for comfort and performance are plenty even on long distance drives. and helping things along is the fact that it to gets key as 800 boat technology treatment. which means that at the fast charging stations, it's battery can go from 10 to 80 percent in just 10 minutes. so let's talk about the general driving impression. and after say the kia evie 6 t t really drives comforta

u. s. president to face criminal prosecution. how big is this moment in u. s. political history? well, good morning, sarah. first of all, historians really like to say that nothing is unprecedented, and i've done the same, but i'm starting to think there's nothing like it in american history. we do know that american presidents have been indicted before we have know that there face criminal charges before you know, particular in the, in the 1900 century and then 974. when richard nixon came fairly close. but what's different today is really the political mood coupled with the enormous significance of the presidential office. and you have to know that originally the president was not a very important man in american politics. but the more important the office became, since like late 19th century, the more attention voters have been paying to his personality and his ethics. so nixon was pushed out of office because there was bipartisan pressure for him to go . and you also hoped to be, pardon, pardon, by his successor, that's not at all the case today. trump has a lot of backing in

u. s. consumers in the big way. so you could say that today i did travel very rapidly globally and there's no borders. so that's something that gets created in another market can take all across the oceans and both ways. and so i just travel very quickly today because of the internet because of our open communications that have these channels, the communications that we never had before before the internet worked very slowly . and now today it travels in and you can keep up with it. it's interesting that you bring up tick tock because there's a crossword happening right now. a, a simple social media site as tick, tock and politics and government. many governments around the globe has even even major 1st of all, countries are banning this social media app, tick tock from their government phones. is this a point where politics are crossing the line of checks all to aim at the country than actually the technology? yeah, politics is politics and factor intertwined these days. it, you know, it became much more pronounced

u. s. increasing energy bills because of it, which is absolutely not true at all. if you look at any big mining big companies actually came into the u. s. into d industrialized zones and got them up and running again. the last thing they've done is taken any money out of the u. s. economy and away from consumers. rather they pay taxes and put money back into specifically in as states like taxes, the very pro bitcoin. so it's absolute rubbish. it really is, i think a much a massive sort of shot in the foot to the new york times dawn of the days when you can just send the journalist down somewhere that janet can make a lot of stuff up. cherry pick facts because nowadays, nowadays everyone has a smartphone. everyone has the internet, so we can very easily find out whether it's true or false. a massive fire has a ruptured. i feel warehouse in western rushing goals in the area of an estimated 4000 square meters. thick black smoke billowed from the facility as firefighters squabble to contain the blaze. the incident is believed to have begun in a part of the warehouse used to still plastics an

big military exercises. now this meeting happened between her successor and the president on u. s. territory. but china again responded with big military exercises partly seen as a rehearsal for a potential blockade or even a potential invasion. and i think this announcement about sunday and this was sensible space launch could be seen as part of this package. and essentially from the chinese point of view is what they're saying is like if you, the taiwanese and the americans hold meetings like this, we're gonna act like this. we are going to kind of practice our potential ability to invade taiwan one day. and we can be up to mess with the traffic with the air traffic in this very important, strategically and, and, and normally sensitive region, germany is foreign minister is also at the start of the trip to china. how is she likely to address the issue? yes, so even before, so she departed from him berlin last night, even yesterday, her spokes person was out there saying that jimmy, very concerned about the police, his actions in the, in the taiwan strait explicitly calling on beijing to de e

u. s. a big question this morning is whether these three tennessee democrats that you see back there, there's state lawmakers whether they will lose their jobs today, not by the voters they represent, but by their colleagues, the republican majority in the state house next hour, the chamber is set to begin voting on whether to expel democrats gloria johnson, justin jones. loans and justin pearson and here's why the three protested on the statehouse floor last week. calling for gun reform. this is after six people , including 39 year olds were killed in a shooting at an elementary school in nashville. cnn's ryan young is following this story from nashville. ryan republicans say that you know the three grammar democrats violated house rules, but kicking them out. seems like a really extreme move. what are you hearing? we're going to see in the next hour or so. okay? depending on who you talk to. sarah. there's a lot of emotions tied to this. some people say this is all about decorum and breaking th

the i'd, sooner sooner than a kid student, there are kids who are pushed to make it big in the u. s. it van and it was out as or but then they don't go to school and only get home schooling she will again, didn't homeschooling, become so negotiation and i'm not sure that's the right way there is to get vegas vision. mention even are these kids getting properly prepared to life in society outside skate boarding, gayden? ah, back in berlin lilies training program involves up to 4 sessions a week, but she's not neglecting her schooling. we join her and her little sister on their way home. really has good grades which matters a lot to her family, to another support lamb cans can't i have other athletes with completely different and really problematic set ups em, laughlin, i skaters or swimmers on where they're training every day at the age of 6 or 7 fine heighten over her m. bentley leader lily trained once or twice away her. and that makes a difference. it. gilbert dust man, the soviet does not want a sheep mom. and her dad used to be a skateboarder himself. he 1st had lily on the boar

and, but it wasn't long before poland, even the big cheerleader for ukraine in the u. s. threatened with being labeled pro russian by some e. u. heavy weights to pressure war saw back into the unity at all cost lane. so european countries have disagreed on everything from weapons for ukraine to anti russian sanctions. and it's not because some foreign bo, he man, was pulling their strays, but really just because some of them actually might want to get re elected. or, you know, they might even feel some sense of responsibility or accountability towards their own citizens. what it concept one that i'm elected jo bureaucrats probably we really don't give down about, and the modem. i can't tell the difference between an elected versus elected officials, which she seems to be have having some problems with. here's a bit of a hit, the elected head of state mexico, in this case, got the state dinner in china, the bottom left to bureaucrat ponder line, did it, and had to grab dinner with some towels and also had to go through normal airport security with the great unwashed masse

u. s. export of beef. i think it was up about 3 percent on a volume basis for 2022 places like china continues to be a big partner. you know, with regards to u. s. b as well as, as japan. i do, i do think supplies are going to tighten over the next couple years. you know, we have other places like, you know, we're still the big beef producer. and so is, you know, i'll show ya. and you know, those locations, you know, are, are looking pretty decent from overall production standpoint. but i still think, overall we're probably going to see, you know, lower lower beef production. and that's kind of when economics kicks in. right. you know, you have less supply prices going to go higher until demand backs off. so i don't think we're going to run out of product. you mean? but, you know, we could see, you know, high prices to help offset at less supply. thank you so much. amy smith, by joining us today as prices rise, it seems like the consumers are the ultimate losers, who now have to find alternative sources of protein. the winners, though, are poultry and pork ranchers, who now see increased demand for their c

u. s. dollar is a big deal and it's happening fast. brazil, china, india, and other major countries are starting to do their transactions in different currencies. saudi arabia is making the shift to as well. all of this comes on the heels of a very important meeting between chinese liter. she's in ping and russian president vladimir putin. now the favorite tool of u. s. leaders to smack down countries. they don't like sanctions may be rendered useless, as we see ongoing landmark, political and economic shifts. we won't have to talk about sanctions in 5 years because there be so many countries transacting and currencies other than the dollar, that we won't have the ability to sanction them. so who is actually responsible for this? well, the united states can only really point fingers that itself. the real threat was the unprecedented economic sanctions that joe biden was allowed to. in fact, encouraged to impose those sanctions. you'll recall we're supposed to hurt russia. but even in march of last year, it seemed obvious they were gonna hurt united states, much more than they hurt russi

now that's a big question, both u. s. and worldwide, but i'd start off with us and that is as an analyst. i think you have to begin with the idea that whatever you assess is going to happen in the campaign. you must keep it distinct from this case in the legal process. once you start political spell at speculation, you open up yourself to political manipulation. for example, the argument of trumpeting supporters, which is if you put me on trial, if you put me on trial, i will win in 2024. so you should think about doing that. we can talk about the fact that we still have almost a year before the 1st republican primary is being held. we can talk about the fact that that will be a fairly crowded field is just included party going to run to santas, former vice president mike hunts, or were you unabashed, or nikki haley. and of course, we have a general election, but as 20 months away, that's going to be a very long twisted course stick with the legal case 1st, see where that goes. keep it to state from the campaign. there ar

you know you had big schools iowa and l s u big 10 and sec in the final.hink the upsets on the men's side have made it interesting, but maybe it's kind of like, who are these guys? well you know who these women are playing a game. unlike anything we've seen before. the athleticism of women's basketball is extraordinary. as we've said, the characters the storylines when, when wonderful man difference of mine. who are kind of like, i don't know if i like women's basketball when they're tweeting about. this is the greatest thing they've seen. katelyn polantz is the best thing they've seen pumped to hear that declare victory. well you're of course you're an athlete yourself, and you know those those days where we are now it is just a tremendous thing and the country is embraced women's sports in a way, i well, reminds me back to 1999 and the women's world cup soccer. brandi chastain that moment where? yeah anyone would have wanted to take it to that game back on july 10th 99. i think it's the same here anyone would have on the ticket to that game. that is such

and as you said, you know, this is a big deal for us consumers. u. sutomakers and it's a big deal for climate. you know, this is one of biden's most aggressive climate policies . yet that that the biden administration has unveiled this is even more aggressive than what we've recently heard from the president. he was aiming. i think for half of new car sales to be e. v in the next decade or so, this is even more aggressive. if this goes through. yes and you know, we're talking about light duty cars. you know the cars and trucks that americans drive, but this rule also covers medium duty vehicles like delivery trucks and also covers heavy duty vehicles like you know, dump trucks, busses utility trucks. um but but yes, this would have the effect as you said of slashing planet warming pollution by half. transportation is the biggest source of planet warming emissions in the u. s and light duty vehicles that americans drive like cars and trucks make up more than half of those. commission so this is this is a big deal. you just heard me say that one of the t

u. s. election next year, as well for big nato military powers. who could also change their position on this, despite what you installed and bogus me saying that all countries are now in favor of ukraine joining didn't. you corresponded jack, paris, and brussels. thank you. and that's bringing the that he has met his building or who has the view now from keep. so matea suttonberg statement will surely be welcomed in ukraine. of course it will. ukraine has said you crazy government has said that they wanted to join nato. ukraine is also saying that the war should not be an obstacle to this membership process, and that this should be started. now. stoughton berg has not said anything, as we've just heard on that. and he has not or announced any specific measures. and it's certainly welcome as a gesture, but if, if you look at it, it will not change the situation here for the key of government on the ground. right now. mathias bellinger and keith. thank you. and for the kremlin reaction last spring, and d, debbie is former muscularity theory of a sha

so you get a lot of grip in corners, which is pretty nice and the big s u v like this. but it doesn't even feel as heavy as it is. the 6 g t ways to point to time, but it's adopted chassis active role stabilization and the ground clearance reduced by 5 millimeters and sure that it's good on the road. it comes powered by a 77.4 kilowatt hour battery with 424 kilometers frames. you get everything in full, a take 3.5 seconds from 0 to 100 and the top speed of 260 kilometers. a pretty impressive and we're going to find out by ourselves now. mm. oh, yeah. that walks forward. i mean it's, i'm the 3.5 seconds. i think it's about 3.2 seconds as they tested. and that's really impressive for me, for such a big and heavy se of he like the v 6, g t b b 6, g t is powered by 2 electric motors. a $160.00 kilowatt motor in front, and a brand new $270.00 kilowatt motor at the rear, which he uses a to stage a inverter that contributes to the machines. quick response. for driving fast with the v 16 t he on the race track, it's really fun, but you should always drive it as well on the stre

so you get a lot of grip and corn us, which is pretty nice in the big s u v like this. but it doesn't even feel as heavy as it is. the v 6 g t weighs 2.2 tons. but it's adapt a chassis, active role stabilization and a ground clearance reduced by 5 millimeters and sure that it is good on the road. it comes powered by a 77.4 kilowatt hour battery with 424 kilometers of range. you get everything in full, a take 3.5 seconds from 0 to 100 and the top speed of 260 kilometers a pretty impressive and we're going to find out by ourselves now. oh yeah, that walks forward. i mean, it's under 3.5 seconds. i think it's about 3.2 seconds as they tested. and that's really impressive for me, for such a big and heavy se of he like the v 6, g t b b 6, g t is powered by 2 electric motors. a 160 kilowatt motor in front, and a brand new 270 kilowatt motor at the rear, which is, is a to stay to inverter that contributes to the machines quick response. for driving fast with the v 6 g t he on the race track, it's really fun, but you should always drive it as well on the streets and therefore w

u. s. navy vessel sales through the south trying to see all big old major drills all around taiwan. these creatures, nothing should be excluded, have been some interesting list. the fact that the u. s. has been still european ones has been revealed not just one percent or have so a tendency to blame everything on russia. it's a common obsession, right? released or discovered on the relatively on known a discourse. there were there for some time apparently before they were picked up and the new york this last friday, the leak of over a 100, very detailed, huge range of topics. and the western media has really picked up the ball and wrong . now, more details are emerging about how an apparent trove, the months with the justice department investigation already underway, just covering not only ukraine, but other parts of the world have. she drew compromise of pentagon secrets, they describe a race buying operations around the world and to run a north korea's mums out of the pentagon leaks from the pentagon. it is taken very seriously by the administration which vaunted upcoming counter o

a big moment in u. s. history. indeed it is, caleb many thanks for the update, on se hated more people been speaking to his lie from outside the courthouse and manhattan that thank you finland is officially a member of nato, with the blogs secretary general leanne salton berg welcoming the scandinavian country into the alliance on tuesday. joining nato is so good for fillum. it is good for nordic security and it's good for nato as a whole. finland brings substantial, i'm highly capable, forces expertise on national resilience and years of experience working side by side with naples. i'm deeply proud to welcome finland as a full fledged member of our lines. but i am response. moscow say that will strengthen his military posture as well as adopt other measures to mitigate when it caused threats from the new nato member. as his russian defense minister soj shall we give his reported equipping bella bruce with a scandal. miss al systems that can carry nuclear munitions generously. some amount of storm on some

u. s. when you had a big oil companies, funnelling loads of money into climates and our campaign. so the impacts of politics and it's so many things rafter one and that's what makes it a bit complex and difficult to address this challenge. and now people say the overpopulation is the main cause of resource depletion and climate chaos. and that we need to reduce the number of people. but is that really true when a 100 companies are responsible for 70 percent of the global c o 2 emissions? so isn't that just me directing the blame for societal problem? seeing as india, one of the most populous country uses on average, just a quarter of the carmen of something in the poorest path of the u. s. yes, no. so if you ask me, i definitely, i would say at the blaming population growth itself as a key driver of contemporary mar month decline is a dangerous red herring because it, it, again, it overlooks those structural factors and drivers. i'm so that the statistic you brought up again, the colossal a carbon footprint of the, of the largest fossil corporations and the other. another kind of

u. s. has some sort of big brother into insecurity terms. is what really conditions the politicians thinking if with the conservative or labor and this is unfortunately not the one of those junctures with a large amount of money is going to be public money is going to be spent to effectively bolstering subsidizing u. s. military capacity to try and contain china at the expense of cutting back programs that actually have to do with actual defense of this country. well, tire has responded with beijing foreign ministry spokesperson saying that camber is hyping up hysteria about the chinese threat in the region. do you think that accusation is justified? camber is effectively talking the line with the us. the u. s. has asked them to, to back up the u. s. in its containment policy of china, the u. s. s. military bases surrounding china. you know from the korean potential around through se, asia and it wants to strike it once other partners basically to subsidize and support and give greater international legitimacy. and so unfortunately, cameras

u. s. government office of refugee will of a big scandal, some new revelations show that 85 that migrant children are now on, accounted for. it's in coordination that is being blamed for the reason ad ends of thousands of migrant children who fell through the committee of them were sponsored to come to the united states by crim again, with you said these kids are being recruited in their home country. what do you, bird here, facebook ads and other things children are being lord put to work here that department of homeland security has trends on the talk watch list. some of who do you see in neighboring areas are sponsoring the children to the trafficker who ultimately brings them here. the new york time, hannah dryer did an amazing expos, a where she actually sheil, how much the child had to pay for food. how much the child had to pay creating slavery, slavery, we're trafficking slaves to this country middleman because we're paying the flight directly to the end. but administration has handed these children over really been vetted. many of them are people who illegally cross, including r

u. s. and china to a big role back then in getting citizens and diplomats out of the country. situation cartoons, obviously very different. it's a long way from the coast, and you have an nikki, raining in the town. so securing that airport and making sure that the wrong way is good enough to allow a military place. and i think it will be a better place to be used in most cases to get people out doing that barrier to number one. so you're going to have to defend here primarily on it. and as your reporters told us, as we know, the airport is not secure right now. no wonder that the americans and others are skeptical about getting their people out right now until and unless that have already secured. well, tens of thousands of sudanese have already fled the country and cross the border into neighboring chad. well, food program says it's expecting the number to significantly rise, potentially up to a 100000 people. as the fighting continues. majority of those arriving a women and children, the cart and sheltering out in the open. people are in dire need of basic essentials, like food and clean wate
