Democratic Senators Call on Fed to Cut Interest Rates

Three Democratic senators urged Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and fellow policymakers to aggressively cut the central bank’s benchmark interest rate, including by 75 basis points this week, to protect the US economy from potential harm.“If the Fed is too cautious in cutting rates, it would needlessly risk our economy heading towards a recession,” Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Sheldon Whitehouse and John Hickenlooper said in a letter sent Monday to Powell. “The Committee must consider implementing rate cuts more aggressively upfront to mitigate potential risks to the labor market.”The letter highlights the thorny political backdrop surrounding the Fed as it prepares to lower interest rates for the first time since 2020 in a bid to bolster a softening jobs market. While officials have repeatedly maintained that policy decisions won’t be influenced by partisan considerations, they continue to face scrutiny from several political corners.Those range from lawmakers who think the Fed is responding too tentatively, to former President Donald Trump who has said the Fed shouldn’t adjust rates ahead of the presidential election. His comments drew a critical response from Vice President Kamala Harris, his rival for the White House this fall, who said she would respect the Fed’s independence if elected.

"Horrific scenes" after Israeli attack on Gaza school kills 22

22 people were killed in an air strike on Abu Hussein UNRWA School in Jabalia Camp in Gaza two hours ago, as each family gathered in their classrooms to have lunch.The casualties were picked up on carts pulled by animals or civilian vehicles at the bomb site, arrived at Kamal Adwan Hospital, and are on the floor of the emergency department, as described by our correspondent there.The scene is horrific. They can’t keep up with the large influx of casualties coming to the hospital.In the past few minutes, the Israeli military carried out a drone attack on tents inside a school that has turned into an evacuation centre for the past few months, housing hundreds of displaced families.The Israeli military has provided the names of 12 fighters that it claims were at the site of an air raid that hit a school-turned-shelter in Jabalia, killing at least 19 people.The army said in a statement on Telegram it had conducted a “precise strike on an operational meeting” for Hamas and Islamic Jihad (PIJ).“These terrorists were involved in rocket attacks against Israeli territory, as well as in planning and committing terrorist attacks against IDF troops and the state of Israel in recent days,” it said, without providing evidence.

Hegseth Out, DeSantis In? Trump Rethinks Defense Pick

President-elect Donald Trump is considering Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as a possible replacement for Pete Hegseth, his pick to run the Pentagon, according to people familiar with the discussions, amid Republican senators’ concerns over mounting allegations about the former Fox News host’s personal life.Picking DeSantis, a 2024 GOP primary rival for the presidency, would amount to a stunning turn for Trump. But he would also find in the governor a well-known conservative with a service record who shares Trump’s—and Hegseth’s—view on culling what they see as “woke” policies in the military.Trump allies increasingly think Hegseth might not survive further scrutiny, according to people close to the president-elect’s team, which considers the next 48 hours to be crucial to his fate.DeSantis, who served as a Navy lawyer in Iraq and the Guantanamo Bay detention facility, was on an earlier list of potential defense-secretary candidates that transition officials presented to the president. Trump ultimately went with Hegseth. But as Hegseth’s nomination has faltered, that list has been revived and DeSantis is again among the choices Trump is considering, the people said.The discussions are in their early stages, one of the people said, adding that Trump has floated DeSantis’s name in casual conversations with guests at Mar-a-Lago, his private Florida club.Trump could decide not to choose DeSantis and select another replacement, if Hegseth’s nomination falls apart, the people said. Another potential defense-secretary candidate who has been discussed by Trump allies, according to people familiar with the matter, is Elbridge Colby, a former Pentagon official and ally of Vice President-elect JD Vance. Trump is also considering Sen. Joni Ernst (R., Iowa) for the job, some of the people said.DeSantis was once seen as an acolyte of Trump but his decision to challenge the former president in the 2024 GOP primary began a conflict between them, with Trump casting DeSantis as disloyal. Trump easily prevailed in the primary and friends of the two have worked to repair the relationship.
