00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: Dan Schwartzman. Usn Ukrainian officials sat down in Florida on

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,559

9
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 2: It's not just about the terms that ends fighting, it's

10
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 2: about also the terms that set up Ukraine for long

11
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: term prosperity. I thought we started laying the groundwork for that,

12
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: most certainly in Geneva. I think we continued that work

13
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 2: in our communications throughout the week. I think we've built

14
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,560
Speaker 2: on that again today. But there's more work to be done.

15
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: This is delicate, it's complicated. There are a lot of

16
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: moving parts, and obviously there's another party involved here that

17
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 2: they''ll have to be a part of the equation, and

18
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,959
Speaker 2: that'll continue later this week when mister Woodcoff travels to

24
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: have committed a war crime in President Trump's offensive against

25
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: boats in the Caribbean. The remarks came in response to

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 1: a Washington Post report that said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseith

27
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,040

00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: The first reke was very lethal, it was fine, and

34
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,960
Speaker 3: if there were two people around, But Pete.

35
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,680

Speaker 1: That was President Trump speaking reporters on Air Force One.

38
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,520

00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: two National Guard members in DC was radicalized while in

40
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: the US. That's according to Homeland Security Secretary Christy Nome,

42
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: still collecting information and talking to his contacts.

43
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: We do believe it was through connections in his home

44
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 3: community and state, and we're going to continue to talk

45
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 3: to those who interacted with him, who were his family members,

46
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: talk to them. So far, we've had some participation, but

47
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 3: anyone who has information on this needs to know that

48
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 3: we will be coming after you and we will bring

49
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 3: you to justice.

50
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: That was DHS Secretary Christy Nome speaking on NBC's Meet

51
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,160

52
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: Afghan national, was taken into custody after the shooting near

53
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: the White House. He will be facing charges including first

54
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 1: degree murder, but authorities are treating the shooting as a terrorcase.

55
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom died last week, while National

56
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 1: Guard member Andrew Wolf is still hospitalized. The Trump administration

57
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: has blamed the Biden administration for letting La Kanwell into

58
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 1: the US and is pushing for deeper immigration curbs that

59
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: includes halting reviews of Afghan immigration proceedings and ordering a

60
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: review of those already in the US. We go to

00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 1: Monetary Policy. Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda sent the

62
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: clearest hint that his board might raise the benchmark interest

63
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: rate this month. Whu Hada noted that any hike would

64
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: merely be an adjustment in the degree of easing, and

65
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: authorities will make the right call on whether to proceed

66
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: with a move, who had also added to the Central

67
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: Bank will consider the pros and cons of raising the

68
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: policy interest rate and make decisions as appropriate. President Trump

69
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 1: said that he has decided on his pick for the

70
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: next Federal Reserve chair, after making clear he expects his

71
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,920
Speaker 1: nominee to deliver interest rate cuts. Last week, Bloomberg News

72
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: reported that White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett,

73
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: Trump's chief economic advisor, is seen as a likely choice

74
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: to succeed current FED Chair Jerome Powell. Earlier today, speaking

75
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,560

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,119
Speaker 1: whether he considers himself the front runner, but he did

77
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: cite that the market is ready for Trump's fedchair pick.

78
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 5: We had a great treasury auction, interest rates went down,

79
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 5: and so I think that the American people could expect

80
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 5: President Trump to pick somebody who's going to help them

81
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 5: have cheaper car loans and your access to mortgages at

82
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 5: lower rates. And that's what we saw in the market response.

83
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: That was NEC director Kevin Hasset speaking on CBS's Faced

84
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: the Nation. The person Trump picks will require Senate confirmation

85
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: as chair and likely to a fourteen year FED governor

86
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: term that begins in February if the selection is an outsider.

87
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: Democrats are looking to give their midterm election chances a

88
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: shot in the arm by getting more doctors and nurses
