Description

The deadline for the Justice Department to unseal a redacted version of
the affidavit used to secure the FBI warrant for the Mar-a-Lago search
is noon today (absent a last-minute appeal). 

Kyle Cheney and Josh Gerstein: Judge Bruce Reinhart “emphasized that
prosecutors had shown ‘good cause’ to redact elements of the affidavit
that would reveal ‘the identities of witnesses, law enforcement agents,
and uncharged parties,’ ‘the investigation’s strategy, direction, scope,
sources, and methods’ and ‘grand jury information.’

And Victoria Guida joins from Jackson Hole, Wyo.: “Federal Reserve Chair
Jerome Powell will face a room of economists and a world of observers as
he aims to send a message that the central bank will not falter in its
fight to bring down inflation. One bit of awkwardness that might make
his task harder: Powell last year at the same conference predicted that
price spikes were likely to be temporary. (They were not.)”
