Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh signaled the central bank may not be done fighting inflation with higher interest rates.  The remarks were his most substantive since he took over this spring, and investors took them as a sign the Fed is more likely to raise rates. Warsh said he saw little sign that borrowing and lending conditions were restraining the economy, and that better inflation readings this summer hadn’t convinced him the underlying trend was improving.

President Trump’s foreign-policy plate is packed. Canada is striking back with retaliatory tariffs of up to 50% on hundreds of American goods starting September 8. Trump fired back on Truth Social, threatening to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America” and saying he doesn’t expect to be “doing much business with Ontario any longer.” Trump suggested the U.S. may have derailed negotiations at the 11th hour, telling CNN, “That sounds like me…if they don’t pay a fair amount, we won’t make a deal.” Meanwhile, the war with Iran remains stalled.  Guest host David Asman with Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Michael Faulkender, John Yoo, Mike Sarraille, Joe Concha, Mark Simone, Rep French Hill Learn more about your ad choices.

A new batch of industrial production, manufacturing, and business capex came out today — showing the best hard goods boom in decades. Import prices fell for a second straight month. Another example of moderating inflation. And all the liberal mainstream media wants to talk about is the allegation that rising inflation is driving up long term interest rates. That charge is wrong.  With Michael Faulkender, Steve Moore, Liz Peek, General Jack Keane, Marc Thiessen, Kim Strassel and Rep. Tom Tiffany Learn more about your ad choices.

So one of the political lessons of the primary election season is how badly polls have been wrong. Comrade El-Sayed in Michigan was supposed to win by over 20 percentage points, but instead barely escaped by a thin cat's whisker. And Hong in Wisconsin was also supposed to win by 20 points or so. But she lost by an even thinner cat's whisker. All these polls showing President Trump's supposed unpopularity on Iran or the economy or the much-abused term affordability may turn out to be very wrong in the midterm elections.  With James Blair, Newt Gingrich, Art Laffer, Ben Ferguson, Byron Donalds and Roger Zakheim.

Once again, the inflationistas who are really rooting against new Fed Head Kevin Warsh, have been proven wrong. The June inflation numbers went negative. The July inflation numbers did almost the same thing. Consumer prices were basically flat, and producer prices the same. You can chop and slice and dice these numbers 100 different ways, but the reality is, disinflation is setting in this summer With Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Marc Sumerin, Tala Goudarzi, Michele Tafoya, Rep.

You have to ask yourself, while comrade El-Sayed, comrade Hong, comrade Mamdani, comrade Piker may speak for the working class, the reality is they don’t speak for the working class. Let me say right here there is an important political leader who speaks for the working class and their values, his name is President Donald Trump. If you find this ironic, since the DSA has Trump derangement syndrome to the tenth power or more, it’s nonetheless a political fact of life.

America is doing very well. Thank you very much. AOC is trying to back out of a lot of issues and values that she herself has stood for. And there’s no such thing as blaming something called “woke one.” You can’t laugh off defunding the police, or 20 million illegal immigrants from open borders, or closing down schools and colleges and businesses – which created unbelievable physical and mental hardship and torment and loneliness and alcohol and drug addictions. And just about everything else that these crazy left-wingers believed in. With General Jack Keane, Newt Gingrich, Art Laffer, David Sacks, and Byron York.  Learn more about your ad choices.
