We to be with you and thank you for having me on. Maria gives you take away from the visit had assess the border today. Will of course have to look at the contrast between the two visits yesterday. Christopher the prison the former president and of course present went to brownsville texas and esther it was rev zero the bank league title 42 and we saw legal is majority of venezuelan come across would think we did maria was we were able to secure that area and we shut down that area since then there is not been any illegal border crossings that in fact of the beginning of this week of them is zero crossings in an interview with the president when he visited so have not been a visit for him to actually see what is happening had reality in the situation of the border now you the former present went to eagle pass percent he had witnessed firsthand what texas did have were able to take control part seizing his role in preventing the illegal border crossings and providing them with breaking of Public SafetyNational Security threats talk about the cartels, what really impacts that the country talking about this through a set of course we know what happened and most recently with tragedy of laken riley they as of illegal is that should know the minute the first place its release time for those who should be setback because we have criminal backgrounds and courses of the things we discussed during our visit and so you see the difference between the two visits and of course moving forward, we see the activities shift was no more illegal crossings taken place in arizonas and gave is illegal because we evers we been able to do texas. Maria is incredible what has taken place here lt. Academy more Violent Crime across the country, linked to Illegal Migrants just wait Venezuelan National delete suspect in the murder of george nursing student, el salvador migrant arrested in connection to the murder of a toddler three more illegals from honduras what about that as medicament arrested for three separate incidents of assault provider medicals reaction finally goodbye to his attention to what else is now asking for sanctuary cities to cooperate with ice and turnover criminal Illegal Migrants for deportation. But is that enough. Christopher thats a question right there in thing that i want to ask between the two yes former present pension during his press conference laken riley ending talked about that tragedy and of course many more of those same Going Forward now many of us have a hard in the last three years the lines that meant taken on attended the hands of the illegal and was a violent criminal happens in the country now mission of the country is that a loss lives because of fentanyl poisoning so there is that different there was moving forward we dont have another federal government can take action today if they truly cared about the safety and security of the market people of the country it would take action disappointedly making excuses putting up to have accountability but this is not a funding problem or resource problem from this the problem of policy leadership thats what is going to take to see some significant change and so that we get continue to see this by the criminals of the country illegally. Maria is a gang from venezuela new york right now we understand causing all sorts of chaos and you know chaos is in a lot of big cities because the going wherever they want to go looking you tell us about the drug cartels they are the ones deciding who comes into america and who doesnt have much money in the making and why sides of violence coming from venezuela in particular. Christopher we know that is what concerns us as those Public Safety mass security things we talk about the gangs coming from these countries that are in the country right now pretty agreeable to expand the criminal network but also by working with the mexican drug cartels also mix of more powerful and continues with rich them and of course right now, because of what is been taken place the less reasonable, makes good drug cartels have been able to profit billions off dollars of human smuggling is every person child becomes across the river across the border, mcafee also looking to conjunction with the criminal street gangs rankings of the country right now for countries to mention from venezuela and working together come theyre able to expand their criminal network and establish a footprint in the United States thats what makes a dangerous we dont know who these individuals are with her able to do with the capabilities are working with drug cartels. Maria know that if this is not just the micros flooding across our borders on jacobus also tens of thousands of pounds of deadly drugs Peter Schweitzer told foxbusiness on the chinese of you did all and he said theres a troubling reason why biden is refusing to address it and watch this. He is been quiet because he has financial ties between individuals linked to the drug trade in china is the one driving the fans and alterative the cardinals of the junior partners had 2000 chinese nationals, there in a small town south of the border helping the cartels produce the fence and all. Maria im even today, this is incredible California Governor Gavin Newsom office reported that the about of fentanyls could michael to the governor last year alone, was enough to give the global population nearly twice over million year olds state of texas Border Patrol agencies, more than 1300a record drug bust earlier this week i was with you at the crime lab to see some of the things that you have recovered from the wide open border public you tell us about all of these drugs now the party is also involved. Weve pension. Christopher theres with china providing those chemical to the mexican drug cartels we are able to massproduce fentanyl record levels versus going to the thousands of americans every single year the dps troopers have seized over 467 million of the fentanyl some of of method vitamin three years just embed to get a goes back to the threats and the federal government going to do when is enough to be as far as you know lives being lost for now because of this drug coming across the borders is killing americans and you know we know that there is a direct correlation there that is what we need or federal government leadership Stronger Leadership direction for pressure on these countries especially china sophies chemical precursors from drug cartels to massproduce production of fentanyl coming across our borders sweetie what about the chinese nationals coming across our borders that we know that they are looking like a very largely military aged men you to lose about that. Christopher we know at one point, especially the second we were chinese nationals, starting to see the transitional to the west where you have seen arizona san diego and the chinese nationals this was concerning us, middleaged men. Judgment coming of our chinese nationals they dont of the records are because obviously there is just going share from china the u. S. As far as the backgrounds through into polar any type of situation like that and so we do know exactly with the programs are beget these are individuals being released in the country that have been released in the country and of course, avoiding of exactly what their intent is no maybe some of them are good intentions but again we know how difficult it is for anybody to flee china and get into the United States oh again, maybe some if there is activity there had course would probably wanting to know i might be quite some time we find out.

Maria what the buccaneers will0 and nasdaq, closing up february and another new record high on thursday and this is coming as the Federal Reserves preferred inflation gauge, came in at the lowest level since march of 2021, we are not out of the woods yet the chief investment strategist of the Worlds Largest asset manager blackrock, is only the prices make a backup, by next year before was mostly falling again in joining me now founder and president john lasky as we deceive and thank you so much for being here i was talk macros to work here in inflation. Because one of the underlying issues here has been the price of oil right. John correct that is moving higher is as im speaking right now coming it is approaching 80 per barrel. Maria oil prices will stay elevated given the fact that people are worried about supply and you have the u. S. Is Climate Change agenda causing but isnt that of worry, that we will keep inflation elevated overall any of the essentials of food, fuel, and rent and still elevated even though we are going out for the high. John you that it is an lets face it, one of the reasons why we have this dramatic sodium by Price Inflation is because of significantly lower oil prices. When inflation was speaking the price of crude oil was 100 per barrel and i came down from about 70 and now it is moving back up towards 80 having no longer have energy price deflation chances are that we are going to be looking at faster rates of growth that otherwise for both pc price index as well as the core pce price index and energy thats an administrative or prices other than just energy products. Maria and you, we see growth in the economy and we have the gdp out and we have growth even if it is lower than what we saw a few quarters ago and you also have an earnings season, which as any finish a pair which was largely betterthanexpected average rate assess the economic story right now. John ordinarily growth is a good thing but lets face it, right now, we have a type they were market and we have historically low Unemployment Rate at 3. 7 percent but what is troubling about the slow jobless rate, is the rapid rate of Wage Inflation that is never the four and half percent. And chances are, if the economy continues to grow in the rate of roughly 2 percent or faster, we will see a further tightening labor market and with that, even faster wage growth and thats going to be bad news for inflation especially Consumer ServicesPrice Inflation rate so if we want to get inflation under control, we have to get wage growth down to something close to 3 percent. Maria thats a good point was looking for the Federal Reserve john you expect rate because this year. John unless i see a substantial slowing of the u. S. Economy, a market deceleration of spending, and unless i see a rise in unemployment, the Unemployment Rate above 4 percent, and in the sexy jobs growth, community fewer than 125,000 jobs per month, no, there will not be rate cut in 2024. Maria fusion rate cut in 2024, isnt likely that we see a stock market so often isnt that largely the reason the receipt so much euphoria around stocks. John thats precisely braided maria come if we dont get this rate cut, be a lot of disappointment on the equity side and i would imagine some of these richly priced equities are going to be moving lower in terms of price. Maria will watch all of that in thank you so much call much john lonski, and meanwhile to polly is now hiring a burrito season, the busiest time of the year, its about lay there also morning of rising prices in california headed to go but the citys fast food minimum wage increase, what is to polly ceo think about reports that his competitor the narrow bread is exempt from taking wages [coughing] copd hasnt been pretty.
