dagen: well, the wall street journal has said repeatedly that basically the infrastructure, the bipartisandeal actually paves the way for the larger spending bill by the democrats. they can -- this is -- the editorial in the wall street journal today. they meaning senate republicans can now retreat to the sidelines and let chuck schumer and bernie sanders negotiate a partisan multi-trillion dollar entitlement expansion that the republicans have now made easier to pass. >> well, unfortunately we are dependent, if you will, on the good faith of democratic senators which doesn't give me a lot of strength or credence but if this is a trap, the american people will see that, the american people don't want radical left-wing social justice bills and if there's ever going to be any semblance of a bipartisan deal on appropriations or any of the other major endeavors, if the democrats try any more of their games in the senate and reconciliation which is a budgetary trick, it is legal. budgetary trick to get done what they can't get done in a filibuster through senate, we will have to wait and see. t

the wall street journal has written about this. i talked about it for months.policy victory for republicans in all this? again, if inflation is a major concern for voters in the midterms which it sure as heck will be, already is, then the democrats are going to point at the republicans and say, well, they're part of the -- they're part of it. they voted for it. we found out that kyrsten sinema said she's a no on the $3.5 trillion reconciliation bill. she said she supports many of the bills, to continue creating jobs and such, i do not support a bill that costs 3.5 trillion. of course alexandria ocasio-cortez had to pounce on the senator, again a job superior to a run-of-the-mill congress person. but what do you make of sinema kind of coming out and saying i'm not on board with the $3.5 trillion bill? >> well, thank god that there's a few sane people in the senate right now. but i still don't think that at the end of the day it's going to do much good. they're going to get something through. the one bipartisan thing that everybody comes together for every time t

the wall street journal created more than 100 counts with bots. each big account was assigned particular interest. they would then watch the video is pausing, or replaying videos that had images or hash tags relating to those topics. according to the investigation, take talk algorithms were able to figure out some bots as quickly as 40 minutes. one fake user, for instance, kept watching depressive videos, while another continues to watch one's about election conspiracies. there is a concern for negative content on the app, including suicide and even eating disorders, while negative. there are also positive features like watching videos about prayer . and while tech talks, algorithm was able to figure out some bots more quickly than others, will humans are without question more complex. that's why under, for you, there could still be videos simply don't reflect your interests. reporting for news you choose and suite r t. now after the break, russia and the usa are having a much the conversation regarding nuclear weapons. but how do rushes neighbors

gerry: hello and welcome to the wall street journal large july 4 was a moment in the national calendarall americans to come together to celebrate the meaning of what it meant to be an american. for most of the country's history it's been the sacred day that commemorates the founding of the nation when a group of different backgrounds character and politics came together in unpromising circumstances to forge a nation dedicated to the pursuit of universal human ideals. it reminded us that however, challenging the circumstances, whatever the disagreement set of divided americans this is the one country in the world was created with the express objective of the liberty and equality of its people. this year it is hard to know what to make of july 4, led by people in government and universities and schools in the media and entertainment and the corporation they keep telling us that america is an evil country a nation founded in peru under pursuit of racism and white privilege and throughout its history and even today continues to be an oppressor, children are being reeducated in the new ideo

the wall street journal is reporting that there are several ways that restaurants and food producers elcome to "mornings with maria." take us through some of these hidden cost increases and you how they're being implemented, how we're missing them. >> inflation is very real for these food makers so they say that, you know, labor's going up, inputs are going up and they feed to charge more to do that so there might be straight across food price increases like gold fish crackers might be costing more, pet food might be costing more and not to mention restaurants are charging more for the day-to-day things that you go to them to buy. but there are also more subtle ways they're trying to hide some of these costs. so food manufacturers, they can do clever things like change the packaging sizes, say in oreo cookies. so it's more profitable for the maker per ounce. and you night not notice that it's actually costing you more. but the packaging, what you might be getting for that size is a little bit smaller. some restaurants historically have shrunk what you get on your plate just a little b

that is what -- did in the "wall street journal" recently is just explain how the case could be made a bit stronger. but the fundamentals of the case are good in the sense of saying that they are acting essentially as state actors. you know, we have got section 230 immunity, which i will explain in a minute. there have been threats to punish these actors in the case that they have not exercised that immunity, if they haven't censored the content. there has even been collusion for a choice of targets for censorship for either the removal or extension of the reach of the content. the lawsuit i believe is correctly framed. the other thing about it is that i think it has the chance to give us the proper remedy to this problem. because although i do think some government action to address this problem is necessary, i think the problem itself comes from an enainge tanglement between tech and government. if we aren't careful we are going propose as a solution to this problem something that will make it even worse and in fact give us big brother out of orwell's 1984, i think. i can explain m

the inside story of how trump lost by the "wall street journal." trump reportedly told then white house chief of staff quote well, hitler did a lot of good things. former president denies saying that. we have reached out to john kelly for comment. the idea that the president of the united states the leader of the free world would say anything to praise the man responsible for the deaths of 6 million jewish people in nazi concentration camps is despicable. hitler didn't do a lot of good things. and this is knot just the former president. this is the undisputed leader of the gop. and party clearly hasn't learned that this is despicable. first, to rudy giuliani. his law license suspended in the nations capitol. i want to bring in cnn senior political analyst. nice to see you all. i'll start with you, john. this is a huge blow for the former manhattan u.s. attorney and mayor of new york. he also ran for president. you worked for him. how are you looking at this situation is this. >> it's a tragedy when you look at ark of his career. he was one of the m

the wall street journal looks at activities in afghanistan after the announcement to pull troops out of there. this concerns airstrikes. that is highlighted in the story. you can read it on the website of the washington journal. alexandria, virginia. hello. caller: good morning. one thing i wanted to bring up, i don't know if we've ever had a president who lost the presidency who still goes on spewing falsehoods about the election. as one of their caller alluded to, making sure that people who follow the guidelines of the country are held accountable when they break the rules of the country, specifically targeting the insurrection. there are a lot of different notions going on. i am looking at the way the country is established. it seems there is a large group that wants to follow the lie. host: all to mont springs, florida. we will hear from maggie. caller: good morning. i for one i'm tired of the time being spent on january 6. a group of people did bad things, get over it. quit trying to blame our former president for it. these people were acting on their own. they didn't behave co

anything to stop the reconciliation package the democrats hope to pass. >> i respect "the wall street journal's" editorial page. in fact, i read it every day. they're totally wrong on this. it shocks me "the wall street journal" which normally has good ethics would say with the editorial we don't know what's in it, but this is what we think. they don't know what's in it. they're wrong about a number of things in there. if they had called and asked us, they could have avoided being wrong. they say there's no permitting reform. there's historic permitting reform in this legislation. they should strongly support that, as should every republican and democrat because it allows the federal dollar to go further. they say it's not bipartisan. i can guarantee you every issue has been bipartisan in the sense there have been republican views and democrat views and we found common ground which is what ought to happen. the editorial reflects the fact that washington, d.c. is not used to this. we're building from the middle out, coming up with something truly bipartisan. they suggest that somehow this would

♪ >> markets quoted and taking a look at that >> under pressure following a report from the wall street journalhe company. we don't know anything more than that down almost 13%. already an sec inquiry that lordstown is cooperating with. s at at this point, all we have is the wall street journal investigating the electric automaker. we'll probe this story and give you any updates or further information from the doj back to you. >> those shares down 11% back to jeff bezos he created a new kind of media giant gaining share in three key areas. first, digital advertising amazon is the only to make gains on amazon and dulg's duopathy. then there is prime video. second only to netflix with 207 million subscribers. but they did just acquire mgm which could bolster. building in to sports. amazon spending $1 billion a year for rights. and testing an estimated $9 billion on content that is less than netflix's $17 billion. all of those investments amazon wants to grow a subs subscriber base. so interesting here to see how amazon is playing with a different end game its interests may not be aligned. >> i do

also in the "wall street journal," i want to read you this quote and get your reaction to it.republicans or at least some of them are taking a victory lap for striking a $1 trillion infrastructure deal with the white house. they can now let chuck schumers and bernie sanders negotiate a partisan is, multitrillion dollar expansion that they have made easier to pass. so how does this play out? >> yeah. look, with all due respect, i disagree with my editors, and i do that at great peril since i write every week for it. here's the deal. if the bipartisan infrastructure deal passes the senate, then biden and republicans both get credit, and they can go out and say we did a good thing. the republicans get a great contrast point because what they've just done, which is reauthorized the highway bill which is about $600 billion already paid for by the gas tax and then $550 billion in new spending that's paid for mainly by sopping up the up spent covid money -- unspent covid money that we've already approved under president trump that has not been spent. but rather than letting biden spe

now, they are going strictly for the trump organization and according to "the wall street journal," they are also going tore allen weisselberg so it appears to me that they are trying to put pressure on weisselberg and the trump organization, first. to then, perhaps, see what comes out of that. remember, there is a whole trove of documents here that we have no idea what they say. and that's trump's tax returns and perhaps, more importantly, shep, the underlying documents that support them. so, i think, this investigation, given the volume of the paperwork that's involved with it given the totality of things that cy vance's office is looking at is far from over, shep. >> tom winter, thank you >>> the house of representatives voted today to form a special committee to investigate the january-6th attack on the capitol. the vote was 222-190 all democrats voted in favor and joining them, just two republicans. representatives liz cheney and adam kinzinger the house speaker nancy pelosi says the committee will have subpoena power, probing why this attack happened. and making recommendations on

here is how it played out on the front page of the wall street journal. the headline, how the fed would raise rates if inflation risk persists, although the story noting he repeatedly emphasized that he still expects price pressures to ease later this year. here is an exchange between jerome powell and republican congressman. >> the prospect of raising inflation, i brought this up and air committee last july, last summer. in those meetings, you continue to suggest you are not ready to take action. yesterday, we received more data indicating the prices are continuing to rise. inflation is not an abstract concern. although the social media team put out information that a barbecue price went down last year, families are seeing rapid price increases with their own eyes. i know it's not your role to comment on fiscal policy but i'm very concerned with president biden's spending plan and its impact on inflation. last month, increase in consumer prices of five .4% with the largest jump we've seen since august of 2008. over the past year, used cars have gone up 3

improvements that can be made in the way the case is made and that is what happened in "the wall street journal" recently, explain how the case could be made stronger, but the fundamentals of the case are good in this sense where they are saying they are acting as state actors and we have section 230 community, which i will explain in a minute. there have been threats to punish these actors in the case that they have not exercised that immunity, they have not sent to the content in accordance with their wishes, and this is -- they have not censored the content in accordance with their wishes, and there is even collusion with certain bureaucrats in the federal government with respect to our choice of target for censorship for either the removal or restriction of breach of content. so, the lawsuit i believe is correctly framed. the other thing about it is i think it has a chance to give us the proper remedy to this problem because even though i do think some government action is necessary to address the problem, i think the problem itself comes from an entanglement between tech and government, an

according to a report in "the wall street journal," the actress may have lost out on $50 million. johansson is accusing disney of releasing the movie to disney plus to gain more subscribers and boost their stock price. her attorney saying that disney knew that the cannibalization such receipts by disney plus would save marvel, and by extension disney, very large amounts of money that it would otherwise owe ms. johanson. disney, which owns abc, responding saying, there is no merit whatsoever to this filing. the lawsuit is especially sad and distressing in its callous disregard for the prolonged and global effects of the covid-19 pandemic. disney has fully complied with ms. johansson's contract and furthermore, the release of "black widow" on disney plus, with premier access, has ce hn top of the $20 million she has received to date. as covid fears continue to stunt theater sales, experts say johansson's lawsuit may set a precedent of other actors taking movie studios to court. >> they're probably going to have to figure out how to revise these contracts so the stars get a cut of th

go to nick timeros at "the wall street journal." er: chair powell, nick timeros at "the wall street journal." in your poping statement in march and april you noted that a transitory rise in inflation above 2% this year would not meet the threshold of moderately exceeding 2% for some time and i noticed you didn't repeat that qualification last month or today and so in your view has the rise in inflation this year met the threshold of moderately exceeding 2% for some time? >> that would again be a question for the committee but i would really say, the guidance that you're talking about is really the guidance to do with liftoff, right? the guidance for liftoff. we have to have labor market conditions consistent with full employment and inflation at 2% and on track to run moderately for 2% for some time. it really isn't relevant now because we're looking at tapering asset purchases. we're clearly aways away from considering raising interest rates. not something on your radar screen right now. when we get to that question, we start to get

>> a good article in the "wall street journal" by monica gandhi i spoke with yesterday about the piecely for the bottom line with delta? it's not more dangerous. if you talk to doctors at the hospital, they will tell you the people say are seeing that ranging from zero to five people at most large hospitals ill with covert, they are unvaccinated people rare exceptions that's consistent with what we saw from the uk this week with a study using the pfizer vaccine showed fully vaccinated people were extremely protective from severe illness and a 96% efficacy in presenting preventing hospitalization, pretty darn good. probably vaccinated people should not be worried about delta but the unvaccinated foreknow immunity, it's a time to get vaccinated. charles: you came under criticism earlier in the year predictions you made about natural immunity and herd immunity, where are we with that? >> it ironic l.a. is an acting restrictions in violation of cdc guidelines about fully vaccinated people wearing masks. l.a. has one of the highest rates of immunity in the country, 75% of adult vaccinated a

you don't have to be a wall street journal reporter working over there every day to know that.ing in the reporting of this book was how many people very close to trump in the white house and at the campaign had become concerned he was dangerous for the country. i mean, alex, he asked his own teammates in the white house to have americans shot. >> right. >> people protesting civil rights abuses to be shot, to have their skulls cracked. his own secretary of state was concerned that he might lean into a foreign conflict in order to hold onto power. so these are the kinds of things that were stunning to me, even after five years of covering trump. and i think part of the reason trump wants to speak with authors is to include his voice in some of this wherever he can. >> i'm reminded as you say that of trump even standing behind a podium at one of his many, many rallies when he would talk about how these people need to be taught a lesson, and you know, we've got to beat the whatever expletive of the day was going to be used and crack those skulls. you're 100% right. he said that beh
