They're fourteen games under five hundred, 176 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 14: and the Mets not all that much better after one 177 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 14: hundred and one wins a year ago. Their record halfway 178 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 14: through thirty six and forty five. They've lost eighteen of 179 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 14: their last twenty four games. Beaten again by Milwaukee at 180 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 14: City Field three to two. Mets got back to back 181 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 14: home runs third inning Brett Baty Brandon Nimo.

Kyrie Irving on the list. There's a report 188 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 14: he's talking to the Phoenix Suns.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. 196 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 16: Good morning, I'm Nathan Hager. President Biden is delivering his 197 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 16: strongest criticism of the Supreme Court yet following its decision 198 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,719 Speaker 16: to end affirmative action, essentially in college admissions. At the 199 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 16: White House yesterday, the President told reporters, quote, this is 200 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 16: not a normal court. Then he expanded on that in 201 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 16: an interview on MSNBC. 202 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 6: I just find it just so out of sorts with 203 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 6: the basic value system the American people. The vast majority 204 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 6: of American people don't agree with a lot of the 205 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 6: decisions courts to make. 206 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 7: You. 207 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the President yesterday following that affirmative action decision. 208 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 3: And this Court has yet another high profile decision coming 209 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 3: today on the final day of its term, on the 210 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 3: President's student debt relief program. For more on the politics 211 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: of the High Court, we are joined by Julie Norman, 212 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 3: the co director of the Center on US Politics at 213 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 3: University College London. Julie, it's good to speak with you 214 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 3: once again. There have been so many questions over the 215 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: last several months about the standing of this Supreme Court. 216 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 3: Now following the decisions that are coming at the end 217 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 3: of this term, how would you assess the legitimacy of 218 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court right now as an institution. 219 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 17: Well, good morning, Nathan. You know, I would say the 220 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 17: ruling that we saw yes during affirmative Action was certainly expected. 221 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 17: We've also seen several unexpected decisions, especially regarding voting rights 222 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 17: and preserving legislators say in that, So I would say 223 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 17: it's been a mix so far this season with the 224 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 17: court's rulings that expected and unexpected. But I would say 225 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 17: I would Biden's comments, I think are shared by by 226 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 17: many that this is an unusual court. But I would 227 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 17: say the rulings that we're seeing come down are actually 228 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 17: pretty rational and pretty much a mix of what you 229 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 17: would expect from from many Supreme courts. So I would 230 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 17: personally hesitate from saying this is particularly unusual. 231 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is interesting to hear the price that think 232 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: go so far as to say this is not a 233 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 3: normal court. You think about as well, the decision last 234 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 3: year on overturning abortion rights. What is the potential risk 235 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: for the president to come so hard against the Supreme Court, 236 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 3: at least rhetorically. 237 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 17: Yeah, So I think this is something that Biden played 238 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 17: right politically with abortion because Democrats did get a big 239 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 17: boost out of that, and that's mainly because it's an 240 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 17: issue that matters to a lot of people, I think, 241 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 17: regardless of what Biden said about it or not. Regarding 242 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 17: affirmative action. Again, for Democrats, this has been a big 243 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 17: issue within the party. But somewhat contrary to Biden's comments, 244 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 17: public opinion is rather split on this. You know, the 245 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 17: majority of Americans do not support the inclusion of race 246 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 17: in college admissions, and even among Democrats, it's quite split. 247 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 17: And we saw that with California in twenty twenty trying 248 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 17: to bring affirmative action back in California, very liberal state. 249 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 17: You know, I fifty seven percent said no, we don't 250 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 17: want affirmative action. So I would say public opinion is 251 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 17: much more nuanced on this issue than I think Biden 252 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 17: and many Democrats have portrayed it to be. 253 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 3: What does it tell you, Julie, that the Supreme Court 254 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 3: has waited until the final day of its term to 255 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 3: come out with its decision on a case that is 256 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 3: going to affect the president's political standing pretty directly, I 257 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 3: think it's pretty safe to say on the student debt 258 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 3: relief program, which is so popular with his young educated 259 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: Democratic voter base. 260 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 17: Well, yeah, so, Nathan, we usually see the Court wait 261 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 17: until the very last couple of days to release the 262 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 17: most controversial rulings. So affirmative Action yesterday, probably student loans today, 263 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 17: and the student loan relief was again an executive action 264 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,199 Speaker 17: that Biden put in place last year to relieve dead 265 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 17: up to twenty thousand for some applicants and of ten 266 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 17: thousand for others. The Court has been hearing arguments this 267 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,839 Speaker 17: is executive overreach, and it's expected that they will likely 268 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 17: put a stop to that. So while affirmative action has 269 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 17: its own implications, I think the case today certainly has 270 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 17: political implications because it's really the Justice Department, the Supreme 271 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 17: Court putting a very direct check on Biden and on 272 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 17: the executive and that's politically going to be you know, 273 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 17: that's going to hit Biden. But I would say this 274 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 17: is something that was somewhat expected. If this is the 275 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 17: way it comes out. 276 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 3: Is this a kind of political impact that could have 277 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: implications into twenty twenty four got about a minute left, I. 278 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 17: Think it would. I mean, the student loan program definitely 279 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 17: helped Democrats in the midterms, and I think many of 280 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 17: them knew that, even knowing that it might get struck 281 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 17: down later. I think realistically, you know, this is something 282 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 17: that matters for many of Democrats base. I think it 283 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 17: matters for getting support for Biden and many Democrats in primaries. 284 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 17: But at the end of the day, again, this was 285 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 17: also an issue that was very controversial. Many working class 286 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 17: voters in particular felt left out of loan relief that 287 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 17: was going to students and not to say small businesses 288 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 17: or other enterprises. So in the general elections, I could 289 00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 17: say this could come out in a wash, but it 290 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 17: was definitely galvin from many young Democrats in particular to 291 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 17: come out and support Biden, support the Democrats. 292 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 7: Nicolls. 293 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 1: This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning brief on the 294 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: stories making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 295 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 2: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 296 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 2: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 297 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: get your podcasts. 298 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 299 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: am Wall Street time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 300 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 301 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 302 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: nine sixty in San Francisco. 303 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 2: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 304 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: Amazon Alexa devices.
