00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 12: Dusty Baker says baseball has been his life. Drafted by

168
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,720
Speaker 12: the Atlanta Breys in nineteen sixty seven, he played for

169
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 12: nineteen years and managed for twenty six years five different teams,

170
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 12: the seventh most wins as a manager in baseball history.

171
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 12: Won the World Series last year with the Astros, and

172
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 12: Baker is retiring as Astros, coming up a little bit

173
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 12: short in the ALCS when they lost that Game seven

174
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 12: to Texas, seventy four years old, Dusty Baker calling it

175
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 12: Quif World Series begins tomorrow, Arizona's gonna start Zach Gallen

176
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 12: and Texas will go with Nathan Evaldi, who's four to

177
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 12: zero in the postseason leak. The NFL begins tonight with

178
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 12: Tampa Bay who's three and three at Buffalo, who's been

179
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 12: a disappointment at four and three. Deshaun Watson will again

180
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 12: not play for Cleveland Sunday in Seattle. He's got the

181
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 12: shoulder injuries, so the Browns will go with p J.

182
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 12: Walker and Brock Perdy and concussion protocol so very likely

183
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 12: will not play for the forty nine ers in their

184
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 12: game against Cincinnati. The Niners would turn to Sam Darnold.

185
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,319
Speaker 12: The NBA announced the All Star Game is going back

186
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 12: to the East versus West format. They've been using captain's picks.

187
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 12: James Harden back with Philadelphia, but he won't play the

188
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 12: Sixers opener tonight against Milwaukee. Victor Webbin Yama played last

189
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 12: night his first game in the NBA. Scored fifteen points,

190
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 12: the nineteen year old top pick of the draft. The

191
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 12: Spurs lost their game with Dallas. The Celtics beat the

192
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 12: Knickson New York. Jayson Tatum scored thirty four. Washington got

193
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 12: I don't add at Indiana one forty six to one twenty.

194
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,559
Speaker 12: The Capitals beat the Devil six to four. Johns dash

195
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 12: that we're bloomberg.

196
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 14: Sport from coast to coast from New York to San Francisco,

197
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 14: Boston to Washington, DC, nationwide on Syrias exam the Bloomberg

198
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 14: Business app in Bloomberg dot Com.

199
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. After

200
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 3: three weeks of deadlock and four nominees, Republicans have finally

201
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 3: rallied behind a little known religious conservative, Mike Johnson, to

202
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,800
Speaker 3: be the fifty sixth Speaker of the House. And Speaker

203
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 3: Johnson is promising to get to work in this.

204
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 8: Time of great crisis. It is our duty to work

205
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 8: together as previous generations of great leaders have to face

206
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 8: these great challenges and solve these great problems.

207
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 3: And that was Speaker Mike Johnson after he was sworn

208
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 3: in on a vote of two twenty to two thirteen.

209
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 3: For more, We're joined by Terry Haines, the founder of

210
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 3: Pangaea Policy. Terry, it's good to speak with you. In

211
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,199
Speaker 3: one of those great challenges. Now suddenly becomes the issue

212
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 3: of gun violence once again after last night's mass shooting

213
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 3: in Maine, the deadliest this year. Does that issue come

214
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 3: back into focus now in Washington?

215
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 15: Good morning, Nathan, Yeah, it does come back into focus

216
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 15: in Washington. But Sadly, it's almost certain that nothing comes

217
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 15: of it. Both parties tend to have very purest physicians

218
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 15: on these things, Republicans much in favor of Second Amendment

219
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 15: purism and the Democrats very much wanting different sorts of

220
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 15: gun control. They've not shown themselves able to come together

221
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 15: around incremental solutions even that everybody thinks are necessary, and

222
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 15: haven't been able to for about ten years. The last

223
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 15: time that anybody tried to make a run at the

224
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 15: registrations and a bunch of other bunch of other common

225
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 15: sense things, it was now retired Senator Pat Toomey on

226
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 15: their Republican side and the now much more Famousmocrat Joe Mansion,

227
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,680
Speaker 15: and they really couldn't get anything going thanks to that

228
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 15: purism on both sides. And I would not look for

229
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 15: anything to change here.

230
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 3: And just to note, Michael Bloomberg, the founder majority owner

231
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 3: of Bloomberg Radio parent company Bloomberg LP, does support organizations

232
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 3: that support gun control, including every Town for Gun Safety.

233
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 3: And speaking of purist positions, Terry, I think that's something

234
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 3: that this new speaker is known for. He sort of

235
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 3: invoked his religious background when he claimed the gavel. What

236
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 3: could Speaker Johnson the kind of conservative that he represents

237
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 3: on Capitol Hill mean for getting legislation done, well, it's.

238
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 15: I think it's two things. For markets. First, it's a

239
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 15: lot less than meets the eye, but at the same

240
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 15: time it's an incremental markets plus. I'll get to the

241
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,319
Speaker 15: meets the eye in a second. It's an incremental markets

242
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 15: plus because Congress only has two basic things to do

243
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 15: right now for the next year. One is to continue

244
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 15: to assure that the government is funded somehow, and secondly,

245
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,320
Speaker 15: to make sure that it takes care of its geopolitical

246
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 15: obligations by providing aid for Ukraine and Israel as well

247
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 15: as as well as the Southern border. The good news

248
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 15: is you've got shutdown risk is now I think down

249
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 15: to forty percent. Things are volatile, but a funding extension

250
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 15: is much more likely thanks to the kicking the can

251
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 15: that the Republicans have done over the last few weeks.

252
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 15: But we still made a tangible sign of that. Markets

253
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,359
Speaker 15: that will be disappointed though that there's really no attempt

254
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 15: to write size fiscal or debt or deficit or anything

255
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 15: else Johnson talks about in his speech yesterday, talked about

256
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 15: establishing a debt commission. That's all well and good, but

257
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 15: it's also classic Washington can kicking. It's the job of

258
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 15: members of Congress, of both parties and in both houses

259
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 15: to do that sort of work, not debt commissions. So

260
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 15: you know, it's also market positive for defense, for example.

261
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 15: But there's that politically, you know, Johnson is not going

262
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 15: to be the main driver here. It's going to end

263
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 15: up being people like Scalise and Emmer and Jordan, all

264
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 15: of whom were much less important over the last three

265
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 15: weeks because they lost bids for speaker. Now they're much

266
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 15: more important because they're the senior leaders of the party

267
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 15: that are actually going to drive the bus again. So

268
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 15: you know, Johnson is is not somebody who should be

269
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 15: viewed in the mold of a super speaker like Pelosi

270
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 15: styled herself on the Democratic side, like people like John

271
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 15: Bayn or Paul Ryan tried to be on the Republican side.

272
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 15: This is somebody that is part of the leadership, but

273
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 15: by no means is the leader of the party in

274
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 15: the House.

275
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 3: Just thirty seconds left, Terry, it sounds like you're characterizing

276
00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 3: Speaker Johnson is almost a figure.

277
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: Is that how you see him a little.

278
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 15: Bit more than that? But I do not see him

279
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 15: as a leading figure in the party. He has not

280
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 15: become so he was not one before before his elevation,

281
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 15: so I would not expect him to exercise the size

282
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 15: of influence on any particular issue.

283
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,240
