1
00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: Monica Ricks. Treasury Secretary Scott Besson says the US will

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,879
Speaker 1: not back down on taking over Greenland, adding Europe is

4
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 1: too weak to ensure its security.

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 2: I believe that the Europeans will understand that this is

6
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 2: best for Greenland, best for Europe, and best for the

7
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 2: United States.

8
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 1: Beson Tilling NBCs meet the press. Taking Greenland should not

9
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 1: spell the end of NATO. A German military reconnaissance team

10
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: has already left Greenland after being deployed there for just

11
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: forty four hours. But European lawmakers have also called for

12
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: a halt to a US EU trade truce, and France

13
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: wants to activate the European Union so called trade Bazuka,

14
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: an anti coercion instrument that uses trade measures to pressure

15
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: policy choices by the EU or its members. Up until now,

16
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 1: it's never been used. Whether Trump's tariffs take effect also

17
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: depends on appending ruling from the Supreme Court, and Wall

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: Street is looking ahead to Tuesday to hear from those justices.

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: Bloombergs Nathan Hagers and Washington.

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 3: Court has gone through two opinion days this year without

21
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,479
Speaker 3: ruling on President Trump's emergency tariffs, investors will see whether

22
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 3: the third day is the one. The Justices have said

23
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 3: this Tuesday as their next opinion day. As usual, the

24
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 3: High Court never says which cases it will decide on

25
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 3: until the justices return to the bench. If a tariff

26
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 3: ruling doesn't come this week, it could be a while.

27
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,680
Speaker 3: The Supreme Court scheduled for a month long break starting

28
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 3: after this Wednesday. In Washington. I'm Nathan Hager Bloomberg Radio.

29
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 1: The Supreme Court's expected to hear oral arguments on Wednesday

30
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,680
Speaker 1: and decide whether the President has the authority to fire

31
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: FED Governor Lisa Cook for cause. The President accused Cook

32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: of alleged mortgage fraud last year, which she denies. Former

33
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: FED chair Janet Yellen talked to Bloomberg about it, and

34
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: she says a ruling in Trump's favor would be devastating.

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 4: This is just going too far, because when a president

36
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 4: weaponizes the Department of Justice and uses pretenses to go

37
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 4: after enemies, you know, we're not living in a democracy.

38
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 4: See any more of.

39
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 5: That to want to happen.

40
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: Hear more from Jenna Yellen on the Everybody's Business podcast.

41
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: Trump's also tried to fire FED chair Jerome Powell for

42
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 1: a cause, following repeated attacks for not lowering interest rates enough.

43
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: White House economic advisor Kevin Hasset says President Trump may

44
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: well keep him at his current job, which would eliminate

45
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: him from replacing Jerome Powell as the next FED chair.

46
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: From the beginning, he and I have talked about whether

47
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: it's better for me to be here in the West

48
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: Wing or over at the FED. I don't think he's

49
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 2: made a final call on that, but I got to

50
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 2: say that I'm even humbled still perhaps to be in

51
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 2: the running with the other people.

52
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: Hassett on Fox's Sunday News Briefing. He'd been seen as

53
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: a front runner to lead the Central Bank till recently,

54
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: with FED governor's Christopher Waller, Kevin Walsh, and Blackrock executive

56
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,840

Speaker 6: among items. The President plans to announce a Davos will

61
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 6: be a plan for letting savers in four oh one

62
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 6: k retirement plans use some of their money for down

63

Speaker 6: payments on a home purchase. Andreo Dan Bloomberg Radio.

64
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,799

65
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: happening in the city.

Speaker 2: They're only ones escalating.

67

Speaker 1: The FBI has asked agents to head to Minneapolis to

68
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: aid ICE. The Pentagon also has troops on standby. The

69
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: Trump administration will allow more foreign athletes to travel to

70
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 1: the US despite its visa ban on dozens of countries.

71
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: The State Department now says athletes, coaches, and support staff

72
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: for events like the World Cup and Olympics can come,

73
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: but foreign fans are still banned. The CDC keeps flagging

74
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: surging flu and measles cases, which actually just marked the

75
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,280

81
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,840

82
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: a bill to protect children from social media harms is

83
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: moving forward, but it's catching some heat on Capitol Hill.

84
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: Bloomberg's Amy Morris explains from Washington.

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 5: The Kids Off Social Media Act, or COSMA, would ban

86
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 5: kids under thirteen from accessing social media accounts and require

87
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,080

88
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 5: some lawmakers, civil rights groups, and tech officials say COSMA

89
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 5: raises concerns about free speech, government overreach, and individual privacy.

90
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 5: An alternative proposal would require social media companies to prevent

91
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 5: harm to minors, and it has enough support for Congress

92
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 5: to pass now. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio.

93
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,359

97
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,640
