Breaking gun legislation news speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said a little bit ago that she expects the Senate to pass the new gun reform package in time for the House to take it up before the weekend as in this weekend.

And then it will be finalized, I guess, and signed in law next week. So that to tap it for some too strong for others gun legislation, the first gun legislation in decades is going to happen.

Politically speaking only, I think if you're on the right side of this argument, you take this as a win.

This is going to let a lot of the air out of the balloon for the next time because there will be a next time. There's some sort of horrifying shooting and there's screaming for gun legislation.

The other side can't use the argument they've been using now for a long time.

Nothing's been passed in decades. One we're going to finally do something.

Right, and it'll also take the steam out of the showmanship, the performative politics of running something up the flagpole maybe maybe even passing it that they know is unconstitutional.

But you know, they'll get contributions and votes and stuff for it and will waste all sorts of time and just become more partisan than ever.

I also think it's useful for senators and Congress people to actually work the muscle of working together across the aisle.

I just think that's good for the Republic. And we'll see if this doesn't be good. Some of these new attempts at looking at the mental health aspect.

And the under 21 criminal records and that sort of thing.

Right, right. Yeah. Speaking of things that kill people, I want to get to the whole fentanyl thing. We have some good sound clips on that.

Just because I think the more people who understand that the drug you think you're buying online is not what you think it is.

It probably has fentanyl and people are dying like crazy. And activists, particularly parents who've lost their beautiful teenage kids to this thing.

They've called for a change in the language that seems minor at first. But I think it's really important.

I'll tell you about that a little bit later on. You know, Jim Kramer is mad money host a CNBC. We've interviewed him a number of times. Interesting, dude.

Anyway, he thinks that Gen Z spends too much money on stuff they don't need. And they're going to have to learn to get over it because times are going to be tough for a while.

And I'm happy to hear him saying this sort of thing. I'm going to be saying to my kids when they're old enough to have their own money.

Nearly half of adults belong into generation Z who are currently ages 18 to 24 say they live paycheck to paycheck. Kramer thinks young adults can do a better job investing some of their money even if it's just a few dollars.

They seem like they have a lot of money. Even when they don't have a lot of money. He's noticed that young workers don't have much earning power.
