    Ted Cruz Blasts FCC Chair’s ‘Mafioso’ Tactic to Bench Kimmel

    Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Senator Ted Cruz has become the most prominent Republican to criticize Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr, saying President Donald Trump’s top media regulator resorted to “mafioso” behavior to pressure Disney Corp.’s ABC to remove late night host Jimmy Kimmel.Cruz, the chairman of the Commerce Committee and a frequent defender of the Trump administration, took to his podcast in the wake of Kimmel’s indefinite suspension this week to describe Carr’s actions as “dangerous.”Carr earlier in the week implied on another podcast that ABC could face serious consequences from the government over Kimmel’s remarks about the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Only hours later, ABC pulled Kimmel’s show.Cruz said he doesn’t believe the government should punish media companies over political disagreements.

    Fed Cuts Rates by Quarter-Point; Powell Cites Weakness in Jobs

    Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Federal Reserve officials lowered their benchmark interest rate by a quarter percentage point and penciled in two more reductions this year following months of intense pressure from the White House to slash borrowing costs.Chair Jerome Powell pointed to growing signs of weakness in the labor market to explain why officials decided it was time to cut rates after holding them steady since December amid concerns over tariff-driven inflation.The decision comes at an extraordinary moment for the Fed.

    TikTok Buyers Group to Include Oracle, Silver Lake, Andreessen

    Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.TikTok’s American operations would be acquired by an investor consortium that includes Oracle Corp., Andreessen Horowitz and private equity firm Silver Lake Management LLC under a framework deal that US President Donald Trump is set to discuss with Chinese President Xi Jinping later this week. The tentative agreement, unveiled on Monday by senior US and Chinese officials after two days of talks in Madrid, would create a US-based version of the popular social media app with Oracle, Andreessen and Silver Lake all holding stakes in the new venture, according to people familiar with the matter. Under the deal, ByteDance Ltd.’s stake in TikTok would be reduced to below 20% to satisfy a US national security law passed in 2024 requiring the Beijing-based company to divest or face a ban in the American market. If completed, with the blessing of Trump and Xi, the transaction would allow the video-sharing platform to keep operating in the US and remove a sticking point in US-China relations. The deal calls for Oracle to continue providing cloud services for TikTok in the US, a business that has become a steady source of revenue for the Austin-based company. Oracle already works with TikTok to host user data in the US and other countries as part of a multi-billion-dollar partnership TikTok has dubbed Project Texas.Today's show features: Bloomberg Businessweek Editor Brad Stone on TikTok's potential buyers and the evolution of social media platforms Katy Kaminsky, Chief Research Strategist and Portfolio Manager with AlphaSimplex Group, on the rates market and the Federal Reserve Adaire Fox-Martin, President and CEO of Equinix, on investing in American infrastructure Alli McCartney, Managing Director, Wealth Management and Private Wealth Advisor with Alignment Partners at UBS See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
