Welcome back to a numbers game with Ryan Grudusky. Thank you for being here for another week.

Very excited. This is a jam-packed week with news. You have the Pope's funeral over the weekend, the Canadian federal election today.

My birthday is tomorrow. He wants to shout that out. And Trump's 100th day in office is on Wednesday. So a very

busy week, a very exciting week. And I want to talk to you about the pinnacle of Wednesday, about

Trump's first 100 days in office. Technically, it's his second 100 first days in office because it's,

0:34.6

you know, the first non-consecutive presence in Grover, Cleveland.

100 days, defined especially in the eyes of the media. They are Doge, immigration, and trade.

So let's start with Doge. At the behest of the president, Elon Musk began working to slash
