Summary

Governor Kathy Hochul has selected Adrienne Adams as her running mate in this year’s gubernatorial race. President Trump sat down for an interview with NBC News anchor Tom Llamas, which remained relatively neutral and avoided partisan leanings. Mark interviews economist Steve Moore. Steve discusses whether Republicans are being transparent about the state of the economy, especially as consumers continue to feel the impact of rising prices. Trump’s new Fed pick, Kevin Warsh, may also face pressure to lower interest rates to 2%. President Trump has assigned the entire FBI team, including Kash Patel, to travel to Arizona in search of TV host Savannah Guthrie’s mother. Yesterday, Democrats clashed with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as he testified before Congress regarding the economy. Mark interviews WOR weeknight host Jimmy Failla. Jimmy shares his plans for the upcoming Super Bowl weekend. Meanwhile, singer Billie Eilish is facing backlash after speaking out about recent ICE raids during the Grammys. Is Minnesota easing up on its criticisms of ICE agents?
