Segments From this episode
Could it be time up for TikTok?
The House is expected to take up a bill this week that could effectively ban TikTok in the U.S. – if the Chinese company that owns it, ByteDance, doesn’t sell off the social media platform. We examine the crackdown, which has rare bipartisan support.
What to make of some firmer-than-expected inflation readings
On Tuesday, we find out what inflation did in February, from the labor department. The past few months have shown core inflation being stubborn, with prices rising each month a little more than would be comforting. We discuss with Julia Coronado, founder and president of MacroPolicy Perspectives and a professor at UT Austin.
