1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: Doug Prisner. The US is sending about two hundred troops 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 1: to Israel to help support and monitor the ceasefire deal 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: in Gaza following a peace accord with Hamas. AP is 5 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: reporting it's part of a team of partner nations, non 6 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: governmental organizations, and private sector players. Earlier today, Israeli Prime 7 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,800 Speaker 1: Minister Benjamin Ecnyaho said in a post on x that 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,159 Speaker 1: the Israeli government approved an outline to free hostages and 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: begin implementing a ceasefire. Now, these two sides will exchange 10 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: prisoners and Hamas will release all remaining hostages. Hamas also 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: said it will reopen the Rafa crossing for the entry 12 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: of humanitarian aid. At the same time, President Trump said 13 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: he'll travel to Israel to be on hand for the 14 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: release of those hostages under terms of this deal. Trump 15 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: spoke on the agreement at the White House Cabinet meeting. 16 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 2: It will be disarming, it will be pulled back, so 17 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: there'll be a lot of things are happening. You know, 18 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 2: I gave you all the lists of twenty two different 19 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 2: things that will have it will take place, and I 20 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 2: think it will take place, and I think you could 21 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: end up with peace in the Middle East, but we 22 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 2: have to get our hostages. 23 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: Back, President Trump, speaking at a cabinet meeting. There is 24 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: no word yet on whether the parties will agree to 25 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: a Phase two, which would address long term plans for GAZO. 26 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: We go to New York next, where a state attorney general, 27 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: Letitia James, has been indicted for bank fraud. James is 28 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: a longtime foe of President Trump, and she is one 29 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: of several Democratic state ags who have sued to block 30 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: the administration's actions. James is perhaps best known for bringing 31 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: a civil fraud case against Trump and his family real 32 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: estate company back in twenty twenty two. After today's indictment, 33 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 1: James took to social media. 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 3: This is nothing more than a continuation of the President's 35 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 3: desperate weaponization of our justice system. He's forcing federal law 36 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 3: enforcement agencies to do his bidding, all because I did 37 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 3: my job as the New York's Attorney general. Ease charges 38 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 3: are baseless, and the president's own public statements make clear 39 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 3: that his only goal is political retribution at any cost. 40 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: That was Letitia James in a video posted to x Incidentally, 41 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: she pushed back against the charges one count of alleged 42 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: bank fraud and one count of making false statements to 43 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: financial institutions. A federal judge has blocked President Trump's efforts 44 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: to send hundreds of National Guard troops to Chicago. The 45 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: ruling on Thursday halts the president's order for at least 46 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: fourteen days, and it comes as the administration is challenging 47 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: a similar ruling by another judge limiting the use of 48 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 1: the military in Portland, Oregon. Trump is attempting to use 49 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: the National Guard to counter protest against his immigration crackdown 50 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: in democratic led cities. The Bureau of Labor Statistics is 51 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: bringing backstaff to prepare the September Consumer Price Index report. 52 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: More from Bloomberg's Charlie Pellett. 53 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 4: Said the agency was directed by the White House Office 54 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,519 Speaker 4: of Management and Budget to bring back employees to assemble 55 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 4: the report in time for publication by the end of 56 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 4: the month. The data, which was originally scheduled to be 57 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 4: released October fifteenth, is key to calculating the size of 58 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 4: next year's social Security checks. The BLS had suspended all operations, 59 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 4: including data collection and the production of economic statistics, as 60 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 4: a result of the government shutdown in New York Charlie 61 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 4: Pellet Bloomberg Radio. 62 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: President Trump renewed his threats of using the federal government 63 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: shutdown to make cuts to democratic priorities as well as 64 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: the federal bureaucracy. The President has repeatedly talked about firing 65 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: federal workers, as well as withholding back pay for some 66 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: government employees and cutting funds for programs favored by Democrats. 67 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: So far, none of materialized. The shutdown is now in 68 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: its ninth day and there is no sign of progress 69 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: on breaking the stalemate. House Minority Leader Haakim Jeffrey says 70 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: Republicans are to blame. 71 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 5: They've refused to negotiate at every step of the way 72 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 5: throughout this year. They've taken a my way or the 73 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 5: highway approach. They've gone it alone. And now we find 74 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 5: ourselves dealing with this mess of this Republican healthcare crisis, 75 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 5: and time has run out. 76 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: House Minority Leader Haakim Jeffrey, speaking earlier to Bloomberg. Now 77 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: government workers and military personnel are preparing for missed paychecks 78 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: and the general public is feeling the effects on everything 79 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: from taxpayer services to air travel. Now we are told 80 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 1: the Senate has canceled plans for a recess next week 81 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: to stay in Washington if the shutdown persists. And that 82 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: is news when you want it with Bloomberg News. Now 83 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: I'm deg prisoner, and this is Bloomberg
