    Police Search for Killer of Charlie Kirk; Wall Street Awaits Inflation Report

    On today's podcast: 1) A search is underway for the killer of Charlie Kirk, a conservative activist who was fatally shot at a Utah university. Kirk was speaking at an outdoor event at Utah Valley University when a single shot was fired from a nearby building, according to local police, with Governor Spencer Cox describing it as a “political assassination.” The shooting drew an outpouring of shock and condemnation from Republicans and Democrats alike, with former Democratic presidents Joe Biden and Barack Obama denouncing the violence and offering sympathies to Kirk's family.2) Global stocks posted small gains as traders held back on major bets before Thursday’s highly anticipated US inflation data. Expectations that the Fed will resume monetary easing this month have soared in recent weeks, as data increasingly point to a US labor market under strain. A softer-than-expected print could fuel bets on an initial outsized cut, while a stronger reading would bolster the case for more gradual moves.3) Mexico plans to impose tariffs of as much as 50% on cars and other products made by China and several Asian exporters. The tariffs would affect countries including China, South Korea, India, Thailand, Indonesia, Russia and Turkey, but would not apply to countries such as the US, Canada, the European Union, Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam and Singapore.

    Judge Rules on Fed's Lisa Cook; Fallout from Israel Attack in Qatar

    On today's podcast: 1) A judge temporarily blocked President Trump from removing Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, allowing her to remain on the job as she challenges the president’s efforts to oust her over allegations she committed mortgage fraud.2) President Trump criticizes Israel after its bombing of Hamas leaders in the Gulf. Israel's strike on Qatar's capital delivered a major blow to US-supported efforts to normalize ties with Gulf Arab nations and possibly crippled talks for a ceasefire in Gaza. The strike may have ended Qatar's role as a mediator in ceasefire negotiations, with other countries such as Turkey potentially being put on high alert, according to former US and CIA officials.3) Poland shot down drones that crossed into its territory during a Russian air strike on Ukraine, calling it an "act of aggression." The country's airspace was "violated by a huge number of Russian drones", forcing Poland to close its airspace and order citizens in the eastern part of the country to stay indoors. The incident was described as "the most serious European airspace violation by Russia since the war began", with indications suggesting it was intentional, not accidental.
