Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discusses the U.S. relationship with China after President Trump’s call with President Xi. In a wide-ranging interview, Sec. Bessent addresses the global soybean trade, the upcoming announcement of a new Federal Reserve Chair, and the economic future of America. Then, longtime Democratic Presidential Campaign advisor James Carville discusses his own party’s future. Carville wants Democrats to embrace economic rage and run on a platform of populism–the party’s path out of its current ‘abyss.’ Plus, Google is reportedly pitching its own AI chips to customers, and NYC Mayor-elect Mamdani is positioning his transition team ahead of a January 1 start.
