As food inflation rises, Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack discusses rising costs, dwindling farmland, and encouraging entrepreneurship among American farmers. Amazon stock has hit an all-time-high, nearing a $2T market capitalization; head of internet research at Evercore ISI Mark Mahaney explains his stock picks for the tech sector. CNBC’s Julia Boorstin reports that the divest-or-ban TikTok bill is hitting snags in the Senate. Plus, what do Taylor Swift and Squawk Pod have in common? We’re both nominated for a Webby Award!
