Congratulations on the piece, 280 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: and I mean we're already seeing the rains pull in 281 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 1: on the US housing market with mortgage rates now close 282 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: to six percent. Is is that what we're seeing globally 283 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, so what we're seeing now is something 284 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 1: of a reverse in nates. And do you know the 285 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 1: back story was when the pandemic came, borrowing costs were 286 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: brought down to historic loads, and of course central banks 287 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: put a lot of money into their economies. The end 288 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: results we saw a big house price boom right around 289 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: the world, not just the rich world, but also in 290 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: emerging economies. Well, of course, now all of that is 291 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: being on round at the fretty rapid clip in terms 292 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: of central banks are raising interest rates to bring down inflation, 293 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: and that means mortgage costs and lonely payment costs are 294 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: going up. And they they there are are already signs 295 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: that house prices are cooling in some places maturity that's 296 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: been and take New Zealand for example. In other places 297 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: signs that it's they're just beginning to come up the 298 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: ball and economists are saying it could be worse than 299 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: a few months from now. So to be clear, you know, 300 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: we're not yet at the two thousand and eight style 301 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: crash territory. But certainly the big boom of the last 302 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: few years is definitely coming to an end. Now we 303 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: could talk a little bit more about what makes this 304 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: potential crash in the housing market different from what we 305 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: saw in two thousand eight. I mean, there are a 306 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: lot more guardrails in place for housing than there were 307 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: back then. Right, absolutely right, So let's do the two 308 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: thousand comparison. This time around. Banks are supposed to be 309 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: in better order. Remember all of the years of ex 310 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: regulations have got their balance sheets and better condition. Consumers 311 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: are in good order. The are cashed up after the 312 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: pandemic years when they when they increase their evening during 313 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: that time. The labor markets around the world are still 314 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: quite strong in fact, as you know, and many economies 315 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: like us, the shortage of labor is the issue. And 316 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: of course let's not forget that boring costs are coming 317 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: from a pretty low base. So depending where you are 318 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: on that mortgage spectrum, your interest rates still nothing like 319 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,159 Speaker 1: what they might have been, say, in previous generations. So 320 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: the thinking is that the households should be in better order. Nonetheless, 321 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: we are also looking at something of a synchronized monetary 322 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: policy typing cycle the kind of which we haven't seen 323 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: for some decades. And when you have mortgage rates going 324 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: up the way that they are around the world, then 325 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: inevitably there will be a hit to household wealth. And 326 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: that's where you might start seeing the pain trickling through 327 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 1: the through the real economy. Well, are we starting to 328 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: see signs and that the rise in interest rates that 329 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: we're seeing is starting to take a hit on overall 330 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,880 Speaker 1: housing prices and what does that mean for the overall economy? 331 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, so our colleagues that Bloomberg Economics have run 332 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: some big numbers on this in terms some of the 333 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: key rates that price to rent and home price income ratios. 334 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 1: And they're having a look at countries such as, for example, 335 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: of Canada, the US New Zealand. They're seeing those hot 336 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: residential markets looking especially vulnerable to to a downturn out 337 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: that wall to happen, it will be quite a flow 338 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: through because construction and home buying is the ultimate and 339 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: multi clar it's the big driver of economic activity in 340 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: most economies around the world. Now you reverse that, you've 341 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: a falling home prices, that's going to a road household wealth. 342 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: It's obviously going to hammer consumer confidence. It puts the 343 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: brakes on future development. It's hard to rev up people's 344 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: confidence when they're paying paying back higher interest rates on 345 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: an asset that's losing value. And then again it flows 346 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: through the whole properic construction and the sales story. So 347 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: that's the big concern that if we do start to 348 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: see it starts to see a material correction in these 349 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 1: house prices, it will reportrough the economy that's coming at 350 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: ton of course, when already we're seeing activity indicators screwing 351 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: around the world.

Bloomberg Sports, Thank John. Six thirty 513 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: seven on Wall Street Time to take a look at stocks, 514 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: some of the names moving in the pre market. Bloomberg 515 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: Radio and TV Markets correspondent Credy Gupta is with us 516 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 1: this morning. Creety, what goes up apparently must come down, 517 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: led by big tech this morning, led by big Tech. 518 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: I mean you'll hear a familiar name here. Tesla is 519 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 1: really your biggest mover to the downside. T s L 520 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: as your taker down about two percent in the pre market, 521 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: also seeing the most volume out of all the names 522 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 1: in the SP five right now, So right off the bat, 523 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 1: kind of going with um a not so great indicator 524 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: for what you're coming ahead in the trading session. You 525 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: also have Apple, for example. We love that proxy for 526 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: all of big tech. A A p L as your 527 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: taker down one point. A per said, but get this, Nathan, 528 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: it's not just big Tech that's weighing on the indexes 529 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 1: you want. You're really seeing this very broad sell off, 530 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: and it's significant when you see the likes of Apple 531 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: being your second highest volume mover in the pre market, 532 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: right next to Occidental. Oh x Y the oil company 533 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: down about we'll just shove four percent, that's your third 534 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: biggest movers. So once again, both spectrums, even the cyclical 535 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 1: kind of more economically sensitive stocks like oil companies for example, 536 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: or even cruise lines. Carnival Cruise Lines is right up there, 537 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: down two point seven percent, also dropping in line. But 538 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: like I said, those big tech names, and of course 539 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: when we talk about those big tech names, we got 540 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 1: to talk about the lights of the chip makers. Here 541 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: A m d S your taker down one point seven percent, 542 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: and video as well, n v d A down about 543 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: two point seven percent. And Nathan, I really highlight the 544 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: chips makers because for you have big tech that drops, 545 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: but then you have chip makers that are a little 546 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: bit more volatile than big tech, and they tend to 547 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: magnify the moves that you see an Apple or or 548 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: Facebook now known as Meta or um Microsoft for example. 549 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: So if you see a downside move of x percent, 550 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: then the chip makers tend to, like I said, magnified 551 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 1: a little bit. Just given the supply chain concerns and 552 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,280 Speaker 1: geopolitics that are there so all in all a little 553 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: bit of a broad sell off even in the pre market. Yeah, 554 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: with all those recession calls coming in, even more of 555 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: them this morning. What's going on with crypto stocks? Cretty, 556 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: bitcoins down once again, Yeah, really following that macro story. 557 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: And that's really where I think you have to look 558 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: at the various different ways to be exposed to crypto. 559 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: So you start off with the miners here Riot blockchain 560 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: for example, r IoT down one point six percent. It's 561 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: kind of in a move very similar to about that draft. 562 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: You're seeing Bitcoin which is down about two percent, about 563 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: a twenty th handle, which is significant there. You're also 564 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: have to look at investors in bitcoin as well that 565 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: are extremely exposed to the cryptocurrency micro strategy, for example, 566 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: taking it on the chin today m STR down about 567 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: three point three percent. And then while you're looking at it, 568 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: also look at the exchanges coin based for example c 569 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: o I N down four point six percent, Nathan All 570 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: and all. However, you slice and dice it, you really 571 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: are seeing that crypto exposure kind of becoming achilles heel 572 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: for a lot of these companies. Yeah, certainly risk off. 573 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: As we wait at Chairman Pal's testimony later today. Crety 574 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: goobdu Blomberg Radio and TV Markets correspondent, as always, thanks 575 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: for being with us and looking at stocks as a whole. 576 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: Ahead of the open, It's a down on day.

Some of 659 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: the top stories in our nation's capital include President Biden 660 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 1: to call on Congress to suspend the federal gas tax 661 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: for three months, the Senate advancing a gun safety bill 662 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: that could pass later this week, and the January six 663 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 1: Committee revealing Republican Senator Ron Johnson tried to intervene for 664 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,120 Speaker 1: former President Donald Trump with an alternate slate of electors. 665 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: Let's get more on all these stories. Bloomberg Government reporter 666 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: Emily Wilkins joins us. Now, Emily, good morning. We got 667 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 1: the word this morning from the White House that it 668 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 1: was a three month gas tax suspension that President Biden 669 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: is going to call for. I guess the question now 670 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: is is this something that Congress is going to approve? 671 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: And Nathan, it doesn't really seem like there's high enthusiasm 672 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill for this. I mean, we've already seen 673 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: how Speaker Nancy closely in the past really through a 674 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: lot of cold water on this gas tax holiday idea. 675 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: She pointed out that she had concerns that, you know, 676 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: if these this gas tax went into effect, there's not 677 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: necessarily necessarily a guarantee that companies would pass the savings 678 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: long consumers. She also noted that the gas tax it 679 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: buds the US Highway Fund, and she's arguing that right 680 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: after the US passes this major infrastructure bill, why would 681 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 1: they go and try and take away funding for highways. 682 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 1: At the same point, they're definitely a sense on Capitol 683 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: Hill that something needs to be done. Um As Majority 684 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,799 Speaker 1: Leader Steny Hoyer, the number two Democrats in the House, 685 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: uh told Bloomberg last night that you know that he was, 686 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: you know, something needed to be done, but he didn't 687 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: exactly give a ringing endorsement of the gas tax holiday. Um. 688 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 1: And so I think at this point there's a sense 689 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: that this is an issue that lawmakers do want to 690 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: try and continue to make progress on. It's just a 691 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: question of exactly how many lovers do they have left 692 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: to pull. I mean, you've already seen them go after 693 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: corporations for what they claim as price gouging. You've seen 694 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: them try to introduce legislation on biofuels. Um, You've seen them. 695 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 1: You know, you saw a Biden go ahead and tap 696 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 1: into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. But none of those have 697 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 1: really prevented gas from reaching its current highs uh. And 698 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: I think there's going it's going to be interesting to 699 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: see exactly how lawmakers respond to this call from the 700 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 1: President at two pm today. Now, I wonder how many 701 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 1: more levers there are to pull at this point. I mean, 702 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 1: I guess the real issue here is that gas prices 703 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: really aren't going much of anywhere in terms of downward 704 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: and we're getting closer to an election where the economy 705 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: where inflation are going to play a huge role in 706 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: what voters decide when it comes to control of Congress. Yes, exactly. 707 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: I mean that's something that Boden is certainly thinking about now. Um. 708 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: It's something that more vulnerable Democrats, the ones who are 709 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,279 Speaker 1: going to be facing the topest elections this November, have 710 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 1: called for in the past. I mean a number of 711 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,479 Speaker 1: them have been supportive of this idea of a gas 712 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: tax holiday. Um. And it reality does come as you 713 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: know the you know you like it or not. Um. 714 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 1: The president's fortunes do seem to often be tied to 715 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 1: those gas price numbers. Number one, just because they affect 716 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: so many other products. And number two. Um, I mean 717 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 1: it's basically a giant billboard. When Americans drive down the 718 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 1: street every day, right, look up, they see a number 719 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: that's much higher than they're used to, and they tend 720 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,200 Speaker 1: to blame the party in charge. We do have some 721 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:11,359 Speaker 1: progress to report on gun safety legislation in the Senate. 722 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 1: We got a big headline yesterday that a compromise had 723 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: been reached and now it looks like the bill is 724 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 1: moving forward. Yes, so the Senate took an initial vote 725 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:25,479 Speaker 1: last night, uh to move forward with passage of this bill. 726 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 1: It's it's still going to take a couple more steps 727 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: you know how the Senate host you always need to 728 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: vote multiple times on things. But this is legislation that's 729 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,879 Speaker 1: really it's not it's a lot of people have called 730 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 1: it the gun bell um. It really does seek to 731 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 1: sort of address mass shootings in a broader manner. UH. 732 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: It includes UM spunding for mental health. UM. It includes 733 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:51,800 Speaker 1: improving background checks, UH, securing schools, and giving states federal 734 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 1: funds to combat gun violence. It's already gotten some opposition 735 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: from the n r A. UH. They came out against 736 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: the bill shortly after it was introduced on Tuesday night. 737 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: We also seen a group of more conservative Republicans in 738 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 1: the House come out against it. But you are seeing 739 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 1: support from a Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell i said 740 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: in a statement that he supports the bill, supports the package, 741 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: and it does seem to have the votes that it 742 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 1: needs to actually pass in the Senate, which means it 743 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 1: is pretty likely at this point that if it does, 744 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 1: you know, pass the Senate, it's likely going to be 745 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: able to pass the House as well, where we've seen 746 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: bipartisan support for other gun proposals in the recent past. 747 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:33,880 Speaker 1: In our last minute or so here, Emily let's talk 748 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: about what we've heard late. The latest instances from the 749 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,720 Speaker 1: House January sixth committee. Sounds like a lot of pressure 750 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: was put on state and local election officials by the 751 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: former president and his team to overturn the election. Yeah, 752 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: a number of former election officials testified just how much 753 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: abuse and pressure they came under due to Trump's laws 754 00:40:55,800 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: that they had somehow tampered with the results of the election. Um. 755 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: You actually had one individual, her mother had to flee 756 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: her home after the FBI told her it was too 757 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,840 Speaker 1: dangerous to remain there. Uh, you have a wonder a 758 00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 1: Moss who was a rank and file Georgia election worker 759 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 1: in Georgia. She she's not one of the top individuals, 760 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 1: but even though um, you know, she wasn't really making 761 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:23,400 Speaker 1: any top level decisions, she feels testified that she feels 762 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: terrified to leave her house to not go anywhere. Um, 763 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 1: and and there was it served just a huge um 764 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: a lot of testimony yesterday from these workers just kind 765 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: of making it clear how these allegations that they had 766 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 1: done anything wrong in had really had a major and 767 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 1: negative impact on their life. And this of course goes 768 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: to try and support the committee's overall thesis that you know, 769 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: Trump did whatever he could to try to put pressure 770 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 1: on whoever he could uh to get the election to 771 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: be declared invalid in favor of him.
