Speaker 5: Business Appen everywhere you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1: Good morning, I'm Amy Morris and I'm Karen Moscow. Here
Speaker 1: are the stories we're following today.
Speaker 2: The House has passed a bill raising the dead limit.
Speaker 2: The measure also cuts federal spending by trillions of dollars
Speaker 2: over two years. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy says, Republicans delivered
Speaker 2: for the American taxpayer.
Speaker 4: Tonight.
Speaker 6: We all made history because this is the biggest cut
Speaker 6: and savings this Congress has ever voted for.
Speaker 2: Speaker McCarthy calls it the biggest spending cut in American history.
Speaker 2: But progressive Democrats are slamming the bill. Representative Corey Bush
Speaker 2: of Missouri says the cuts will hit vulnerable groups.
Speaker 5: This was a bad deal.
Speaker 2: We have a big board from the progressives.
Speaker 1: They say this is a bad deal, and so we
Speaker 1: stood up to that.
Speaker 2: Representative Bush calls those work requirements for snap recipients ineffective.
Speaker 2: The bill now heads to the Senate, where passage is
Speaker 2: virtually certain, although Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has already said
Speaker 2: he'll vote against it. The question now is timing. The
Speaker 2: President has to sign the bill before June fifth to
Speaker 2: avoid a default.
Speaker 1: Well, reaction is pouring into the dead agreement. Amy Bloomberg
Speaker 1: Politics contributor Genie Shehans Zeno says, in the end, both
Speaker 1: parties came together, but there are still many lawmakers unhappy
Speaker 1: with the deal.
Speaker 7: I would say nobody really wins in this process. Did
Speaker 7: the center win? I think certainly in this case, the
Speaker 7: center delivered, and that is critically important at a time
Speaker 7: of you know, so much partisan ranker. On the other hand,
Speaker 7: let's remember what we're talking about. We're talking about saving
Speaker 7: the country from its first default in American history.
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Politics contributor Genie shehan ZnO notes one hundred and
Speaker 1: seventeen members of the House voted against the measure, three
Speaker 1: hundred and fourteen voted for it. Roughly two thirds of
Speaker 1: House Republicans supported the bill.
Speaker 2: And that's not all that's going on in the world
Speaker 2: of politics this morning. The race for president is about
Speaker 2: to get a bit more crowded. We're learning former Vice
Speaker 2: President Mike Penn's plans to officially launch his bid next week.
Speaker 2: Bloomberg's Ad Baxter has that story.
Speaker 8: If the plan holds, it will be next Wednesday in Iowa.
Speaker 8: Pence has been laying the groundwork for this for more
Speaker 8: than a year. He has visited early voting states and
Speaker 8: promoted his autobiography. As he challenges Donald Trump, he faces
Speaker 8: polling problems. Real Clear Politics has him with less than
Speaker 8: four percent in the GOP Bloomberg sources say he plans
Speaker 8: to offer himself as the only viable traditional conservative in
Speaker 8: the field, with Ron DeSantis far to the right in
Speaker 8: San Francisco. I'm at Baxter Bloomberg daybreak.
Speaker 1: All righted? Thanks? So, outside of politics, Wall Street is
Speaker 1: laser focused on what the Fed does next to where
Speaker 1: in less than two weeks from the Central Bank's next meeting,
Speaker 1: and there's growing talk of a rate pause. Here's Fed
Speaker 1: a Reserve Governor Phillip Jefferson.
Speaker 9: A decision to hold our policy rate constant at a
Speaker 9: coming meeting should not be interpreted to me that we
Speaker 9: have reached the peak rate for this cycle. Indeed, skipping
Speaker 9: a rate hike at a coming meeting would allow the
Speaker 9: committee to see more data before making decisions about the
Speaker 9: extent of additional policy firming.
Speaker 10: Thank.
Speaker 1: Governor Philip Jefferson, who's been nominated to serve as vice chair,
Speaker 1: says he's looking to tomorrow's jobs report is a key
Speaker 1: reading and word of a.
Speaker 2: Pause is nothing new. But how about a skip in
Speaker 2: rate hikes? That's the latest rhetoric coming out of the
Speaker 2: Central Bank. From Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker.
Speaker 11: I am in the camp increasingly coming into this meeting
Speaker 11: thinking that we really should skip, not pause. I don't
Speaker 11: like the word pause, but skip an increase.
Speaker 2: Philadelphia Fed President Patrick Harker says the Central Bank doesn't
Speaker 2: have to hike at every meeting, but he appears to
Speaker 2: like the optionality that a term like skip may offer
Speaker 2: policy makers.
Speaker 7: Well.
Speaker 1: Any other news we are following this morning brings us
Speaker 1: to the world's richest ban. Elon Musk is on his
Speaker 1: way home after wrapping up his first visit to China
Speaker 1: since the pandemic, and we get the latest from Bloomberg's
Speaker 1: John Tucker, John.
Speaker 10: And Karen is Private gena part of Shanghai. This morning
Speaker 10: local time, he wrapped up the whorldwind Tour meeting staff
Speaker 10: at Tesla's Shanghai plant. Tesla's China team showed the Boss

Speaker 10: other Auto Titans, he's strengthening ties with Beijing, just as
Speaker 10: the Biden administration and other Western leaders try to less
Speaker 10: in dependence on China. Mus apparently didn't want to ruffle
Speaker 10: any feathers during the visit. He was absent on Twitter.
Speaker 10: Musk has had his longest absence from the platform since
Speaker 10: June of twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 10: A lot of foreign social media platforms are banned in China,
Speaker 10: including Twitter, although it's easy to get around the band.
Speaker 10: Musk also may have popped a bottle of champagne on
Speaker 10: the way home after learning that he's regained his title
Speaker 10: as World's richest in New York. I'm John Tucker, Bloomberg Daybreak.
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, John Elon. Musk and Jamie Diamond

Speaker 1: The decision comes as competitor Target is embroiled at a
Speaker 1: controversy over similar products. Target removes some items from its
Speaker 1: collection for Pride Month in June which honors lesbian, gay, bisexual,
Speaker 1: and transgender people. Targets hit a rationist threats made workers
Speaker 1: feel unsafe. This is Bloomberg.

Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, im Amy Morris. The House passed that
Speaker 2: debt limit bill. It would put limits on government spending
Speaker 2: through the twenty twenty four election and avert a destabilizing
Speaker 2: US default. And now it heads to the Senate. It
Speaker 2: is expected to pass, but it's also expected to receive
Speaker 2: a little pushback there. We're joined now by the co
Speaker 2: director of the Center on US Politics, Julie Norman at
Speaker 2: University College London. Julie, it's always a pleasure. Thank you
Speaker 2: for taking the time with us this morning. Some pretty
Speaker 2: vehement no votes from the Freedom Caucus, from the Progressive
Speaker 2: Caucus in the House. Do you expect similar pushback in
Speaker 2: the Senate?
Speaker 14: Well, good morning, Amy. You know this was going to
Speaker 14: be tough in both houses. I would say getting it
Speaker 14: through the House of Representatives was key. I think that
Speaker 14: was the big vote that everyone was watching. Could McCarthy
Speaker 14: get the vote votes, could they get this over the line.
Speaker 14: The Senate will still have holdouts, but the Senate, I
Speaker 14: think it's more a question of how fast it will
Speaker 14: move through rather than if it will move through. We're
Speaker 14: expecting procedural votes to start really as soon as possible.
Speaker 14: It's really a question as to how many senators try
Speaker 14: and throw in amendments, try and kind of muck up
Speaker 14: the process a little bit. But we've heard from the
Speaker 14: leadership on both sides, both Schumer and McConnell saying, look,
Speaker 14: we've got to get this through fast, guys, and just
Speaker 14: like keep this moving as much as possible.
Speaker 2: So what are the sticking points?
Speaker 14: Well, for Republicans, it's pretty much that it doesn't go
Speaker 14: far enough. You know, the bill that House Republicans had
Speaker 14: put out that many senter Republicans also wanted, had much
Speaker 14: deeper cuts for a much longer length of time. So
Speaker 14: for some conservative senators Mike Lee and Utah for example,
Speaker 14: Ron Paul are saying, you know this, this doesn't go
Speaker 14: far enough. We're going to push for a little bit more.
Speaker 14: On the other hand, you have some of the more progressive
Speaker 14: Democrats Bernie Sanders Elizabeth Warren saying, look, this is too
Speaker 14: many concessions on work requirements for AID. I'm pulling back
Speaker 14: some of our priorities. So we're also not going to
Speaker 14: endorse this. So again you have some individuals, I think
Speaker 14: on both ends who will not throw their weight behind it.
Speaker 14: But there does seem to be a bit more confidence
Speaker 14: that there's more in the Senate who can get this
Speaker 14: over the line from both parties.
Speaker 2: Does this tell you anything about the ability for these
Speaker 2: two sides to be able to strike deals on other issues?
Speaker 2: Does this signal a glimmer of comedy and I mean
Speaker 2: co mity comedy in a bitterly divided Congress.
Speaker 14: I wish we could say there were broader hope from this.
Speaker 14: But I would say we should take comfort in the
Speaker 14: fact that bipartisanship did work this time around in the
Speaker 14: House forgetting this deal through. That was definitely not a
Speaker 14: given going into this process. And there's just so many
Speaker 14: times you can keep pulling a rabbit out of the
Speaker 14: hat on the debt ceiling, and they managed to do
Speaker 14: it with the House. And I do think it was
Speaker 14: because of the leadership of both Biden and McCarthy and
Speaker 14: really the moderates on both parties realizing the severity of
Speaker 14: this situation and getting it through. I don't think that
Speaker 14: will be the case on you know, most other issues.
Speaker 2: I think there were.
Speaker 14: Clearer heads prevailed and just realized we cannot hit this
Speaker 14: June fifth date. And that's really what mobilized most of
Speaker 14: these votes more than the concessions from one party or
Speaker 14: the other.
Speaker 2: You know how things on Capitol Hill always tend to
Speaker 2: be a zero sum game. Did anybody win? Did President
Speaker 2: Biden win? Did Speaker McCarthy win? Can they both chalk
Speaker 2: it up as a victory?
Speaker 14: Well, Amil, depends who you ask, right, I mean, both
Speaker 14: both Biden and McCarthy will try and chalk this up
Speaker 14: as a win. McCarthy is definitely trying to tell Republicans, look,
Speaker 14: this is the biggest cuts in history, you know, making
Speaker 14: pretty grand claims about what was really, in all honesty,
Speaker 14: pretty modest. Bill Biden, on the other hand, I think,
Speaker 14: can make the case that he protected a lot of
Speaker 14: programs and funding that Republics had really set out to cut.
Speaker 14: So both will spin it in their own, you know,
Speaker 14: in their own favor, and my sense is that the
Speaker 14: public is responding as such as well. You know, when
Speaker 14: this was going down to the wire, most Republicans were
Speaker 14: blaming democrats, most Democrats were blaming Republicans, and so politically
Speaker 14: all probably come out to a wash. But the good
Speaker 14: news is that it looks like this is moving through
Speaker 14: and moving forward, and that's really what all of us
Speaker 14: were hoping to avoid.
Speaker 2: Is there still a question though now about Speaker McCarthy's future,
Speaker 2: because there were Republicans who are very vehemently against this deal. Absolutely.
Speaker 14: I mean, I think what's notable is that he did
Speaker 14: manage to get about two thirds of Republicans on board
Speaker 14: with this bill. I think if it had been you know,
Speaker 14: if he didn't get the majority of the majorities, he
Speaker 14: kept saying that would have been a problem, but the
Speaker 14: fact that that many supported him suggests that even if
Speaker 14: there were, you know, a few individuals or some of
Speaker 14: the Freedom Caucus who were trying to threaten his speakership,
Speaker 14: it seems that he has enough support from within the
Speaker 14: caucus that he could override. Then I think they know
Speaker 14: they don't have the votes to push something like that
Speaker 14: right now. So for the time being, I think this
Speaker 14: is pretty much a win for McCarthy, but he knows
Speaker 14: he's on thin ice with you many of the far
Speaker 14: right members of the party.
Speaker 2: Only about thirty seconds here. Does this also then speak
Speaker 2: well for more moderate voices in either party in the
Speaker 2: broader sense, one would hope.
Speaker 14: So again, I would say the debt ceiling is a
Speaker 14: little bit of a distinct issue, and I would note
Speaker 14: that even some of the votes did not go with
Speaker 14: some woe maybe expect Marjorie Taylor Green, Jim Jordan. Some
Speaker 14: that we think as being more farther on the right
Speaker 14: voted for this, and I do think that speaks to
Speaker 14: how McCarthy was able to kind of leverage some of
Speaker 14: his relationships here. So we'll see if that carries over
Speaker 14: to other issues. But for now focusing on the debt ceiling,
Speaker 14: and this seems to be moving forward in the way
Speaker 14: that many of us hope that it would.
