Description
Home Depot has made an $18B deal for SRS Distribution, attempting to expand its reach among home improvement professionals, and Federal Reserve Governor Chris Waller says he’s in no rush to cut interest rates. Ahead of FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s sentencing, Puck founding partner Teddy Schleifer considers the implications of the court proceeding, both for SBF and for America’s criminal justice system. Plus, TikTok has launched a $2.1 million advertising campaign aimed at Senators. CNBC’s Steve Liesman reports that the divest-or-ban TikTok bill in Congress has split support among voters in CNBC’s latest All America Survey. He joins Yale Lecturer Joanne Lipman and NYU’s Co-Director of the Center for Social Media and Politics Josh Tucker in a discussion about TikTok’s role in young voter behavior and the future of American democracy.
