00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: Good Friday peace agreement. White House Security Council spokesman John

35
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: Kirby says it's an opportunity for the President to celebrate

36
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: a heritage he cites often. President Biden cares deeply about

37
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: Northern Ireland and has a long history of supporting peace

38
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: and prosperity there. As a US Senator, Joe Biden was

39
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: an advocate for how the United States could play a

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: constructive role supporting peace. Might House Security Council spokesman John

43
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: visit comes as the US grapples with the leak of

44
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: intelligence that has been posted on social media. Bloomberg's Ad

45
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: Baxter has that story. Both Defense and DOJ involved. Now,

46
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: the Department of Defense has referred this to the Department

47
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 1: of Justice for a criminal investigation, and I certainly would

48
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 1: have free to them, but I'm not aware that they've

49
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: come to any conclusions at this point about where they're

50
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: coming from. White House spokesman John Kirby says they don't

51
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: know how much is out there and whether more will

52
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: be posted. We're going to get to the bottom of this,

53
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: and then if there's actions that need to be taken

54
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: as we learn more about the extent of what happened here,

55
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: well obviously take those. Kirby says, hard to tell at

56
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: this point how much damage has been done. He says,

57
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: defense officials are talking to allies in San Francisco. I'm

58
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,280

Speaker 1: yesterday from David Malpass and what we heard from Krystallina

68
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: georgy Ava in her conversation with Bloomberg last week. It's simple,

69
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: it's about economic slowdown. Every other topic I can't believe

70
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: I'm saying this, including China, has been pushed aside by

71
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: such a grim and cautious view on economic growth that

72
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: dovetails with a covering China, a recovering India. But what

73
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: about the rest of the world, including the United States.

74
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,760

00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: Senator Elizabeth Warren, a New York representative Alexandria Ocassio Cortes

79
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: have sent letters to more than a dozen of the

80
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: largest depositors with Silicon Valley Bank. They're raising concerne over

81
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: the failed banks relationship with some of the venture capitalists

82
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: and tech founders who made up much of its customer base.

83
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: I meantime, Karen New York Fed President John Williams is

84
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: rejecting the idea that the FEDS rapid interest rate hikes

85
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: led two problems in the banking industry, and we get

86
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,799
Speaker 1: the latest on that live with Bloomberg's John Tucker, John

87
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: and Nathan don't blame us. That seems to be the

88
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: message from Williams. Silicon Valley banks collapse last month was

89
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: the second largest in US history. SVB and Signature Bank

90
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: were taken over by regulators after a run on their deposits.

91
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: Williams told an economics forum the issues were more related

92
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: to the individual banks the suggestion there they were poorly run.

93
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: As for how investors are betting on the future path

94
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: of interest rates, Williams doesn't lose much sleep over that.

95
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: Do I worry of market expectations, as you mentioned the

96
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: expect us through glory interest rates five later this year

97
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: and significantly next year. I think my answer is I

98
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: don't really worry about it. The New York Fed president,

99
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,000

00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: So I come here most importantly, though not as an individual,

158
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: but I come here to say that the people of

159
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 1: District fifty two seventy eight thousand people have a voice

160
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: in this chamber once again. The other expelled lawmaker who

161
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: represents Memphis, Justin Jordan, could be reappointed tomorrow by the

162
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 1: Shelby County Commission. Three adults were injured when a large

163
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: inflatable bounce house blew over in the wind in New Journey.

164
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: It happened at a passover carnival in a parking lot

165
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: in Lakewood. Global News twenty four hours a day, powered

168
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 1: Thanks Michael. Time now for the Bloomberg Sports Update. For that,

169
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: we bring you John Stensheller. All right, thanks Nathan. It

170
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 1: was a night for some playoff revenge. The Clevey and

171
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:30,079
Speaker 1: Cleveland Guardians season ended last October with a division series

172
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 1: lost to the Yankees, who jumped in front last night

173
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 1: in Cleveland too nothing before there was an out, but

174
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 1: the Yanks were blanked. The rest of the way. Had

175
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: only three hits after those first four batters and the

176
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: Guardians one three to two. The Mets out to avenge

177
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: the wildcard lost last fault of the Padres. They put

178
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: two on with Jeff McNeil an ishl offering rip down

179
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: the right field line, base sit headed to the corner,

180
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: live all hits third, he heads home to score. Lyndor

181
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 1: gets the wave around, loses the helmet. Here's the throw.

182
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: Lindoor slides his safely. Jeffs a third base. He gives

183
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: the Mets to nothing lead in the bottom of the

184
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: third inning on WCBS. Later, another two run double that

185
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,719
Speaker 1: from Francisco Lindor. The Mets held San Diego to two

186
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: hits and won five to nothing, fourteen strikeouts by Met pitchers,

187
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: including Max Scherzer, who lost to the Padres in that

188
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 1: wildcard series. Tampa Bay won again one nothing over the

189
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: Red Sox to raise the first team since the Brewers

190

Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty seven to start a season ten and oh.

191
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 1: This was their first close game. They won the first

192
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: nine by at least four runs one time. Yankee Andrew

193
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: Heeney that with Texas, tied American League record. He struck

194
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: out nine batters in a row. NHL regular season winding

195
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: down the Rangers slim hopes to win the Metropolitan Division,

196
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,719
Speaker 1: dealt the blow when Buffalo won three two in a

197
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: shootout at the Garden or Timmy pannerin at both the

198
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: Ranger goals asked for. The Islanders, now in danger of

199
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: missing the playoffs a five two loss at Washington. NBA

205
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Business App, and Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak.

206
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager on a morning where President

207
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 1: Biden is about to get in touch with his roots.

208
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: He has headed to head ancestral homeland of Ireland starting

209
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: today to mark twenty five years since the Good Friday

210
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: peace agreement. But the league of sensitive Pentagon documents has

211
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: made this trip oversees a lot more complicated. For more,

212
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: we are joined this morning by John Raines, director at

213
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: the Global Insights and Analysis Team at SMP Global Market Intelligence. John,

214
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: Good morning, This classified Pentagon leak couldn't come, I guess

215
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:52,920
Speaker 1: at a worse time for President Biden. How much could

216
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 1: this overshadow the President's visit to Ireland this week? I

217
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: think it's going to overshadow it to a degree. I mean,

218
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,319
Speaker 1: obviously this is kind of a good news story for

219
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: him to go to Ireland. So I don't know how

220
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,319
Speaker 1: much play this was going to get across the week

221
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: because there's a number of different stories. You brought up

222
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 1: gun control and the things that are happening in Tennessee

223
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,439
Speaker 1: and elsewhere. So I think this is a feel good story,

224
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: but obviously it's going to detract from his overall message,

225
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: which was, hey, listen, I'm with Ireland, I'm with Northern Ireland.

226
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: Let's get this peace process and celebrate it and move

227
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: on with some type of a hopefully some top of

228
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: an agreement that gets that assembly back in order in Belfast.

229
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: How much influence could the President have on the process,

230
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: given the difficulties that we've seen for the parties in

231
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: Northern Ireland and in the Republic of Ireland to come

232
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: to some kind of agreement on power sharing, you know,

233
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 1: I think it's possible. I mean, obviously it's a long shot,

234
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: and I think you know, when we hear references from

235
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 1: the wine House, they are downplaying that the President is

236
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 1: going to have any influence here to get these minds together.

237
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: But I mean, let's face it. I mean, he has

238
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: iris and just ancestry. He's very very popular, both in

239
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: Northern Ireland and in down South. So I think there's

240
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: a potential here that at least we could get some

241
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: type of negotiations started if not actually some type of

242
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: agreement by the time you leave, which I think is

243
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: probably unlikely. Now you did mention, of course, the latest

244
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: mass shooting in the US as well. We had the

245
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: incident in Nashville just a week ago. Now this latest

246
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: mass killing in Louisville, Kentucky, and it sparked a very

247
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: heated response from President Biden, a statement, I think you

248
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: said something like, how many more Americans need to die

249
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: before Congress does something about this? What kind of progress

250
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: do you think can be made on the gun issue

251
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: when these incidents it's just seemed to keep happening every

252
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: other day, it seems in this country. Yeah, you can

253
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: almost say that this is pretty much every day at

254
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: this point, I mean, depending on how you define a

255
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: mass shooting. But you know, we look at this issue

256
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 1: on a regular basis. We keep track of all the

257
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: different mass shootings that happen in public spaces, and what

258
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: we find is afterwards really not much. And part of

259
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: the reason there is that both parties are coming at

260
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: this from very different angles. From Republicans, it's really looking

261
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: at mental you know, mental health issues, a you know,

262
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 1: increased school security, where Democrats are really looking at the

263
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: issue of gun control, and there's very little headway here

264
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: in which we could see. So what we'd normally find

265
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 1: in these type of situations as lowest common demotomator, so

266
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: probably some increased funding for school security and also maybe

267
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: some mental health issues, but aside from that anything substantial

268
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: pretty unlikely. Do you see this having any residence with voters.

269
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we saw the reaction in Nashville where the

270
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: state House reaction seemed to be to expel those lawmakers

271
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: who mounted a gun control protest on the floor. Does

272
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 1: that have any impact with voters that could move this

273
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,239
Speaker 1: issue one way or the other? I think maybe modestly

274
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,560
Speaker 1: in some maybe swing states or swing districts, we could

275
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: may ebc especially with it's an important issue for younger voters.

276
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: So as long when these groups of individuals start, you know,

277
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: going to the ballot boxes, and it's a possibility we

278
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: could see a slight move here or there. It hasn't

279
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: been really a pivotal issue in the past, but it

280
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: is growing in importance, just like we've seen with climate

281
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 1: change with young voters as well. So not saying it's

282
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 1: necessarily the driving feature now, but certainly something to look

283
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: for in the future. So in our last minute here,

284
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: What kind of progress do you think could be made

285
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 1: either one way or the other when it comes to

286
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 1: moving this debate. It seems as though, you know, Republicans

287
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: argue that mental health is the issue, while Democrats push

288
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 1: for more gun restrictions. Is there any movement that you

289
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: can see to bring about some kind of compromise. Well,

290
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: we did see a bipartisan bill that you know, reached

291
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: law last year, so there is some ways that we

292
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: can see folks on Capitol Hill work together. I think

293
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: it really see moves as like you know, banning, you know,

294
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: sim assault weapons, or you know, seeing significant changes in

295
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: gun control. You're probably gonna have to get rid of

296
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: the filibuster in the Senate, and to do that, their

297
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to need to pick up several seats

298
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 1: inside the Senate. This is Bloomberg Daybreak Today, your morning
