It was a long week for economic data and some of it showed that tariffs are beginning to hit consumers harder. And today the president teased that tariffs on semiconductors that could be set as soon as next week. Those tariffs could be between two and 300%.Well, as much as economic data we got all week, I have been waiting all week to talk to this guy, my friend Justin Wolfers. He is a professor of economics and public policy at the University of Michigan. I want to talk about everything, but let's start sp ...

We all know that Trump is highly susceptible to flattery. It's kind of his thing, especially when it comes to Vladimir Putin. I mean, just take a look at the way Trump spoke about the praise he received from Putin back during his first term and his 2016 campaign.>> Well, if if Putin likes Donald Trump, I consider that an asset. Like for instance, Putin said Trump is brilliant. Putin said, "Donald Trump is a genius. He's going to be the next great leader of the United States." Putin did call me a genius.I'm ...

Just walk us through what this kind of compensation actually is. Thanks, Lizzy. Yes, carried interest is a form of compensation which allows the employee to sort of get compensated for the returns on their investments.So typically, you would see it in private equity companies, largely based in London or New York. But it's been quite difficult to implement it in sovereign wealth funds because they don't typically raise third party capital. But we are starting to see it creep in to some of the the newer sort ...

XRP holders, we just witnessed something very, very crazy and we have to talk about this. We are going to go over this in detail because this is actually a very big deal. So, first, let's actually start off with a few things. Number one, let's go back to August 8th where we did see Ripple put out a post. Now, we did include this in a recent video and it was basically just addressing the tokenization shift. You know, it's no longer a trend. It's reshaping global finance. Here's how RWAS are moving onchain wi ...

After a short three-hour meeting over the Russian invasion of Ukraine and some of the briefest remarks we have seen from Donald Trump in some time, he and Russian President Vladimir Putin are now on their way back to their respective capitals without a peace deal or a ceasefire or any agreement or really much of anything to show for themselves. I mean, the third and perhaps most significant party to today's peace talks, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zalinski was not even invited. But he wasn't silent.Just be ...

Joining us now, Timothy Snyder, author of the New York Times bestsellers on freedom and on tyranny. Tim, uh, good to see you. Uh, putting aside the fact that this meeting appeared to achieve nothing, Donald Trump had looked like he had changed his tack with with, uh, with Vladimir Putin, starting to talk tough as recently as yesterday, suggesting there will be sanctions if they don't agree to some kind of a deal.And then and then you watched what what we watched in Anchorage. Nothing but fawning and admirat ...

When Vladimir Putin announced his invasion of Ukraine, he justified it by offering a long revisionist history about Russia's relationship with Ukraine. Today, when Putin kicked off his brief press conference with Donald Trump, briefed by 12 12 minutes, I mean, he began with another history lesson. This time about Russia's relationship with the United States.We're close neighbors and it's a fact. It's also important that Alaska has to do with our common heritage, common history between Russia and the US and ...

Well, Donald Trump was on the other side of the country today doing still we don't know a lot about. Back in Washington, his administration faced a significant setback in its attempt to seize control of our nation's capital. Something they've been really trying hard to do this week.Today, lawyers from the Trump Justice Department of Justice told federal judge Honoreas that the DOJ would reverse course on its previously announced order to effectively strip power from Washington DC police and hand it over to ...
