Speaker 1: water and I'm like, yeah, we gave me a and
Speaker 1: I brought it in because this is something that we
Speaker 1: had all over the place when we went to France,
Speaker 1: and that's the water bottles.
Speaker 3: The caps are attached. If you'll look into your radio,
Speaker 3: very smart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, instead of the cap coming off and then you
Speaker 1: losing it and all that, the cap is attached.
Speaker 3: It looks like it has less plastic too.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's a nifty little thing. It's the first time I've
Speaker 1: seen it in the US, so I'm hoping we'll see
Speaker 1: more of that. It's your little tip for the day.
Speaker 3: Here's what's ahead on wake Up called.
Speaker 1: LA Police Chief Jim McDonnell has defended how the LAPD
Speaker 1: handled the recent immigration enforcement protests, which sparks some allegations
Speaker 1: of excessive force and indiscriminate use of rubber bullets and
Speaker 1: tear gas.
Speaker 3: The chief says suggestions the.
Speaker 1: Response was undisciplined or lacked oversight that's simply not accurate.
Speaker 1: Just hours into a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, Israel
Speaker 1: accused Iran of launching missiles toward them and vow to retaliate.
Speaker 3: Iran denied it, but then.
Speaker 1: Explosions were heard and siren sounded across northern Israel. The
Speaker 1: Israeli military says two Iranian missiles were intercepted before.
Speaker 3: Boarding Air Force one for the Netherlands.
Speaker 1: President Trump said both Israel and Iran have violated the
Speaker 1: fragile cya fire ABC.
Speaker 3: Selina Wang is already in the Hague.
Speaker 1: She'll be joining us to talk about what President Trump
Speaker 1: is going to be pressing for at the NATO summit,
Speaker 1: and of course the new hot topic and Israel Iran
Speaker 1: sees fire and speaking of that, we're gonna be checking
Speaker 1: out with ABC stre Donna Miller in Jerusalem at five
Speaker 1: point twenty. I was going to say that she and
Speaker 1: O there's maybe breathing a big sigh of relief now,
Speaker 1: but then apparently missiles were fired, so maybe not yet again.
Speaker 3: That's coming up at five twenty.
Speaker 1: If you're a fan of Buy Now, Pay later, be careful,
Speaker 1: it's going to show up on your credit score. And
Speaker 1: also new cell phone plans are coming, but are they
Speaker 1: any good? The host of How To Money WHI, Joel Larsgard,
Speaker 1: will weigh in on that and more coming up at
Speaker 1: five point fifty. Let's get started with uh some of
Speaker 1: the stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.
Speaker 1: The LAPD is mourning the loss of Sergeant Shu Dang,
Speaker 1: the veteran officer who was hidden killed by a car
Speaker 1: after he stopped to help following another crash on the
Speaker 1: four or five early yesterday morning that Will was telling
Speaker 1: you about all morning long. Sergeant Ding was taken to
Speaker 1: UCLA Medical Center, where he died. Another man died at
Speaker 1: the scene, and a third person was injured in the crash.
Speaker 1: The four of five was closed for yesterday's commute and beyond.
Speaker 1: A local state senator says federal law enforcement agents should
Speaker 1: have to identify themselves better.
Speaker 5: Senator Sacher Benet Perez has proposed new legislation she calls
Speaker 5: the No Vigilante Act. She says, as federal immigration enforcement
Speaker 5: efforts continue here and elsewhere, is becoming unclear whether some
Speaker 5: of the agents are actually really law enforcement.
Speaker 1: But the truth is, unless these individuals provide proper identification,
Speaker 1: we don't know.
Speaker 5: She says. The bill would help put people at ease
Speaker 5: and so many agents conceal their faces. It would also
Speaker 5: allow local police to request id from federal agiance. Michael
Speaker 5: monks KFI.
Speaker 1: News Republican lawmakers and Sacramento have tabled a bill to
Speaker 1: end sanctuary laws in California. They say it's been prompted
Speaker 1: by what they call violent attacks on federal immigration agents
Speaker 1: in La. Huntington Beach. Senator Tony Strickland tells KFI getting
Speaker 1: rid of the sanctuary city laws would allow ICE to
Speaker 1: work more closely with local and state authorities.
Speaker 6: To make sure this is more strategic in terms of
Speaker 6: making sure that they're actually falling through and going after
Speaker 6: the criminals who are here illegally.
Speaker 3: He says.
Speaker 1: The message that seems to be getting lost is that
Speaker 1: ICE is rounding up people who are in the US
Speaker 1: illegally and who commit crimes. Time to say good morning
Speaker 1: to ABC's Selena Wang, who is already in the Netherlands,
Speaker 1: and Selena, good morning. The President's going to arrive a
Speaker 1: little bit later today for the NATO summit. I would
Speaker 1: imagine the world is buzzing over the announcement of a
Speaker 1: CEA fire between Iran and Israel. Is that going to
Speaker 1: be the main focus of those of the meetings now?
Speaker 7: Well, had there not been the escalation between Israel and Iran,
Speaker 7: Ukraine and Russia really would have been at the top
Speaker 7: of the agenda. But right now this is certainly Israel
Speaker 7: and Iran is going to be key looming large over
Speaker 7: President Trump's meeting with our NATO allies. But look, this
Speaker 7: seafire is a fragile situation. And in fact, as President
Speaker 7: Trump was leaving the White House this morning, he made
Speaker 7: very clear that he's not happy. He said, he's furious
Speaker 7: that the seafire that he had just celebrated is now
Speaker 7: in question. He said, as he was leaving the White
Speaker 7: House that the two countries don't know what's the bleep
Speaker 7: they're doing. Then he went on truth social He posted
Speaker 7: that Israel is not going to attack Iran, stressing that
Speaker 7: the seafire is in effect, saying that all planes will
Speaker 7: turn around and head home while doing a friendly plane
Speaker 7: way to Iran. Nobody will be hurt. So the President
Speaker 7: wants this ceasefire to hold, but very fragile right now.
Speaker 1: Okay, so cesare or not cespare, but Israel and around
Speaker 1: probably front and center. But you mentioned that Russia and
Speaker 1: Ukraine were supposed to be one of the main focuses.
Speaker 1: I would imagine they're still going to talk about that absolutely.
Speaker 7: And Ukraine's President Vilenski, he is at the NATO summit.
Speaker 7: It's unclear if Trump is going to be meeting with
Speaker 7: him or not. We do know that the President is
Speaker 7: going to have individual bilateral meetings. Unclear if Zelenski will
Speaker 7: get time with the President. But this is a high
Speaker 7: stakes moment for Zelenski. You know, while the world's attention
Speaker 7: has really been occupied by the conflict in the Middle East,
Speaker 7: he is still fighting this war against Russia. He wants
Speaker 7: to ensure that he can have the backing of the
Speaker 7: United States, the backing of Europe. This is a tricky time,
Speaker 7: especially with the domestic political situation in the US, so
Speaker 7: he wants to ensure that he can still have the
Speaker 7: support of President Trump and that he can still get
Speaker 7: funding for defense as he continues to fight the war
Speaker 7: against Putin.
Speaker 1: Okay and Selena, is Zelenski going to that you've heard
Speaker 1: be pushing for NATO membership or is that kind of
Speaker 1: off the table now?
Speaker 7: Well, this is, of course something that's been a priority
Speaker 7: for Zelenski. In February, he even said he was willing
Speaker 7: to step down as president if it meant that Ukraine
Speaker 7: could join NATO. But it is difficult. It's very, very
Speaker 7: difficult because when it comes to the ceasefire proposals that
Speaker 7: have been presented, that has not been a part of it.
Speaker 7: NATO membership has not been a part of it, So
Speaker 7: it's unclear how realistic it is. However, it is a
Speaker 7: priority of Zelenski's.
Speaker 1: Okay, And the other thing that I think they're going
Speaker 1: to be talking about was getting NATO members to kick
Speaker 1: in more money.
Speaker 7: Absolutely. I mean, you'll remember that in President Trump's first
Speaker 7: term he was often very critical of NATO. He often
Speaker 7: slammed our ally for not spending enough on defense. So
Speaker 7: we are expecting Natal countries to promise to increase their
Speaker 7: defense spending from two percent to five percent. If that
Speaker 7: is the case, President Trump will count that as a
Speaker 7: major win. It's something he's been pushing for for a
Speaker 7: long time.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: And just to clarify too, by doing that, they have
Speaker 1: some time to do it. It's not like they have
Speaker 1: to increase that spending tomorrow. I think they have like
Speaker 1: ten years to get to that five percent.
Speaker 7: Absolutely, And I mean this would take a lot of time.
Speaker 7: We're talking about a huge change in these countries. It
Speaker 7: would take many, many years in order to hit that target.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 1: And then, Selena, how long do they You mentioned that
Speaker 1: there are individual meetings. Is there are there also big
Speaker 1: group meetings or is it just a bunch of leaders
Speaker 1: in the same place and they hold individual meetings while
Speaker 1: they're there.
Speaker 7: No, there will definitely be group meetings as well, and
Speaker 7: Trump as well. In his schedule, he has a press
Speaker 7: conference scheduled for tomorrow before he leaves, and that's going
Speaker 7: to be a chance for reporters to ask him questions
Speaker 7: I'm sure the questions will dominated by what's happening in
Speaker 7: Israel and Ron, but of course the world is going
Speaker 7: to want to get a read on his bilateral meetings
Speaker 7: and what our allies have been pushing for.
Speaker 1: Okay, ABC's senior White House correspondent Selina Wang, thanks so
Speaker 1: much for the information.
Speaker 3: Appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Thanks all right, let's get back to some of the
Speaker 1: stories coming out of the KFI twenty four hour newsroom.

Speaker 1: now as he tries to sustain a ceasefire. Just hours
Speaker 1: into the ceasefire between Israel and Iran that was announced

Speaker 1: She's trying to call in, but we're we're not. We're
Speaker 1: not connecting at the moment. Okay, well, well you see
Speaker 1: if we can connect with her. I wanted to mention
Speaker 1: to you that yesterday we were talking about how it
Speaker 1: was my five year anniversary of the operation to get
Speaker 1: rid of the tumor the cancer, and I encourage you
Speaker 1: to get your colonoscopies right and something that nobody really
Speaker 1: wants to do, but we all need to do. And
Speaker 1: I got several really nice emails and dms on my
Speaker 1: Instagram Amy Kay King, and I wanted to share one
Speaker 1: a couple of them.
Speaker 3: She's good.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well I'm going to share them in a minute though. Okay,
Speaker 1: So anyway, don't forget go get your colonoscopy, and I'm
Speaker 1: going to tell you more about some of the nice
Speaker 1: responses I got yesterday and that people are actually going
Speaker 1: out and scheduling them, which I love.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm here for, all right.
Speaker 1: So now let's say good morning to ABC's Jordana Miller
Speaker 1: in Jerusalem.
Speaker 3: So glad we got to connect.
Speaker 1: So, Jordana, I thought that I was going to be saying, boy,
Speaker 1: I bet you're breathing a sigh of relief this morning,
Speaker 1: but that might be a little premature.
Speaker 11: Well, I still feel relieved, and I think talking to
Speaker 11: a lot of you know, people in my neighborhood and
Speaker 11: at the coffee shop. I think a lot of people
Speaker 11: do think that we are, you know, around the corner
Speaker 11: from this ceasefire working. It's often the case in the
Speaker 11: beginning of a seafire that it's a little rocky and
Speaker 11: both sides kind of test the limits. And I think
Speaker 11: that's what we saw this morning here the Iranians fired,
Speaker 11: you know, as the Israelis increased their fire. Also over Tehran,
Speaker 11: the Israelis fired, you know, intensely across the capital in Iran,
Speaker 11: and the Iranians fired twenty ballistic missiles in the morning
Speaker 11: from about five to seven point thirty, keeping most of
Speaker 11: the country in their bomb shelters for you know, more
Speaker 11: than two hours, which is the longest, the longest consecutive
Speaker 11: waves that Iran has fired over and unfortunately, one of
Speaker 11: those missiles hit a residential building in southern Israel in
Speaker 11: the city of Barsheva, killing four people that were actually
Speaker 11: in their safe rooms, but unfortunately just too close to
Speaker 11: the actual impact of the direct of that missile.
Speaker 4: You're doing, I have a quick question to the others. Yeah, so.
Speaker 3: You said that there were missiles fired.
Speaker 1: One went into that neighborhood and unfortunately killed a few people,
Speaker 1: and that Israel had also been doing some pretty heavy
Speaker 1: attacks on Tehran. Was that before the ceasefire technically went
Speaker 1: into effector was that after?
Speaker 11: So I think both sides played a little bit with
Speaker 11: the timing. The Iranians were firing past seven am, which
Speaker 11: was the stated start time, and I think the Israelis
Speaker 11: were as well.
Speaker 4: But then there was quiet.
Speaker 11: And then much later, three hours later, after ten am local,
Speaker 11: the Iranians fired two more ballistic missiles on northern Israel.
Speaker 11: Those were intercepted, nobody was hurt, but Israel vowed a
Speaker 11: very tough response and the planes were on their way
Speaker 11: to carry out strikes again over Tehran until the President
Speaker 11: got on the phone, tweeted, and then got on the
Speaker 11: phone with the Israeli Prime Minister and asked him to
Speaker 11: scale back and call off those attacks.
Speaker 4: Uh, there were a couple.
Speaker 11: Strikes north of Tehran, the outskirts of Tehran, but other
Speaker 11: than that, it doesn't look like the Israelis did much more,
Speaker 11: which means the President did succeed in scaling back that
Speaker 11: Israeli reprisal strike and getting you know, both sides back
Speaker 11: now to where to square one?
Speaker 4: Right now?
Speaker 11: The seafire is in force, you know, and and no
Speaker 11: more so we're gonna have to wait and see. But
Speaker 11: I think we're we're now. There's a new fresh start
Speaker 11: now and and you know, we're gonna hope it holds.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's that's always good.
Speaker 1: So even as as recent is yesterday, Iran was saying now,
Speaker 1: we're not backing down.
Speaker 3: We're not backing down.
Speaker 1: And then out of the blue, at three o'clock our
Speaker 1: time yesterday afternoon, the president says, we got a cease fire.
Speaker 1: Do you or have you heard anything about what may
Speaker 1: have been kind of the straw that broke the camel's
Speaker 1: back or the what it was that got the two
Speaker 1: sides to say, okay, we're done.
Speaker 11: So the Iranians have consistently put out messages that don't
Speaker 11: really reflect what's happening on the ground and reality.
Speaker 4: So they always put out.
Speaker 11: Statements that you know, they're winning this war, they're causing
Speaker 11: major damage to Israeli military assets, you know, everyone is
Speaker 11: in place and strong. Meanwhile, they've been in a constant
Speaker 11: state of flux and shock and awe since Israel really
Speaker 11: started it's surprise attack on Iran.
Speaker 4: Twelve days ago. And there was just no way.
Speaker 11: That the Iranians could sustain a real military conflict with
Speaker 11: the United States. I mean, that's what it came down to.
Speaker 11: They even their reprisal strike that they were saying, we're
Speaker 11: going to do this to the United States and American
Speaker 11: assets and every American is a target.
Speaker 4: In the end, what did the Iranians do.
Speaker 11: They quietly choreographed and gave the United States a head
Speaker 11: up on a strike for which the United States was
Speaker 11: prepared for, and no bases were hit, no servicemen were injured.
Speaker 11: It was really a face saving kind of reprisal strike.
Speaker 11: And then you know, when the President said, come on,
Speaker 11: you know, you better just come to the table, the
Speaker 11: Iranians decided.
Speaker 4: That was a better move for them.
Speaker 11: I think all along amy there's been a question would
Speaker 11: the regime, you know, preoccupy itself or put as the
Speaker 11: top priority its own survival or its nuclear weapons program.
Speaker 11: And I think now we can definitively say, at this moment,
Speaker 11: the Supreme leader is choosing his own power and staying
Speaker 11: in power, and they're going to make concessions on their
Speaker 11: nuclear weapons program.
Speaker 3: Okay, well it looks fragile, but whatever.
Speaker 11: Whatever is left of it we should say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so it appears that right now, CeaseFire's back on.
Speaker 1: We'll see it's fragile, and we will continue to check
Speaker 1: in with you because you have first knowledge of what's
Speaker 1: going on there. We appreciated Jerdana Miller in Jerusalem. We'll
Speaker 1: talk to you soon, all right, all right. A seventh

Speaker 13: Artificial intelligence startup Anthropics Fafty tests have shown a disturbing trend.
Speaker 13: Most AI models, including Meta, Google, Open Ai and its own,

Speaker 13: models access to fictional company emails. When an email discussed
Speaker 13: replacing the current AI model, it threatened the engineer with

Speaker 3: Ryan says the US bombing of Iran's nuclear development facilities
Speaker 3: made that possible.
Speaker 14: But the pause in military action might be brief. Israeli
Speaker 14: say Iran fired two missiles at Israel this morning, and
Speaker 14: today the Israelis are set to respond quote with force again.
Speaker 1: Babe Natanyahu said that he turned his planes around after
Speaker 1: having a conversation with President Trump, who said turn your
Speaker 1: planes around. California Republican representative says hitting Around's nuclear weapons
Speaker 1: facilities was a key to national security.
Speaker 3: Iran cannot get a nuclear weapon.
Speaker 2: The targeted, yet overwhelming strikes executed this past weekend were
Speaker 2: precisely tailored to achieve that limited, yet vital mission.
Speaker 1: Speaking from the House floor yesterday, Representative Kylie said the
Speaker 1: Iranian regime is the foremost sponsor of terror. He says
Speaker 1: it's been disturbing to see the partisan responses from some
Speaker 1: members of Congress. Two thirds of the state is abnormally dry.
Speaker 1: That's from the most recent US Drought Monitor update. Nearly
Speaker 1: forty percent of the state is under moderate drought. Twenty
Speaker 1: three percent of the state is in severe drought. Forecasts
Speaker 1: suggest hot dry weather may worsen conditions this summer. And
Speaker 1: speaking of hot, millions of Americans are sweating it out
Speaker 1: under a heat dome. Extreme heat warnings are in place
Speaker 1: from Virginia and Washington, d c Up to Rhode Island
Speaker 1: in Boston. Cities in the Midwest are also sweltering temperatures
Speaker 1: or ninety degrees or higher with heat indexes up to
Speaker 1: one hundred ten degrees. Okay, So I was telling you
Speaker 1: earlier when we were waiting to talk to Jordana that
Speaker 1: yesterday we were talking about getting your colonoscopy and how
Speaker 1: it's very important.
Speaker 3: It can save your life.
Speaker 1: It certainly did mine, and I certainly wouldn't have had
Speaker 1: to go through an operation and chemotherapy and all that
Speaker 1: stuff if I had done my screening when I was
Speaker 1: supposed to. And so I got some really nice responses,
Speaker 1: and one is from Shelley who lives in DC, and
Speaker 1: she said thanks for the reminder about the importance of
Speaker 1: getting the colonoscopy. She says, I turned forty six in March,
Speaker 1: and I've been putting it off despite having Crohn's disease
Speaker 1: run in her family. She said, I emailed my doctor
Speaker 1: today to get it scheduled. Way to go, Shelley, And
Speaker 1: then got another note from Was it from Danny?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 13: Danny?
Speaker 1: Yeah, he said he lost his mom to cancer and
Speaker 1: she never had a colonoscopy, and he wonders, you know,
Speaker 1: if that had been different, that maybe she might still
Speaker 1: be around. So I said, don't ever stop speaking up
Speaker 1: on this. And then the other one from RUSS said,
Speaker 1: because of what we were talking about yesterday, I have
Speaker 1: made an appointment to have the scope, and so way
Speaker 1: to go, Russ. Seriously, nobody wants to get it done.
Speaker 1: It's not the most fun thing, but it can literally
Speaker 1: save your life. It's an inconvenience and it's not that bad.
Speaker 1: So thanks for the nice notes, appreciate it, and go
Speaker 1: get your colonoscopy.
Speaker 3: Okay, time to.
Speaker 1: Get in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho. Good morning, Courtney.
Speaker 9: Good morning.
Speaker 3: We're surviving here with the heat. Whoa it?
Speaker 12: So?
Speaker 3: Are you going to be up over one hundred today
Speaker 3: in New York City?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 9: Yes, yeah, I'm between the humidity and everything. Oh man,
Speaker 9: it's I was walking to the train yesterday and I
Speaker 9: was like, this is this is brutal, and it's supposed
Speaker 9: to be worse today. When I left my house, I
Speaker 9: leave my house in the middle of the night and
Speaker 9: it was ready.
Speaker 3: It felt like you were walking into a sauna. It
Speaker 3: was like this, this is gonna be a rough day,
Speaker 3: had a rough couple of days.
Speaker 9: Tomorrow, we're going to hopefully tomorrow it's going to rain
Speaker 9: and it's going to clear some of this out.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you mentioned a rough day ahead, and it
Speaker 1: doesn't look like it's going to be a rough day
Speaker 1: on Wall Street absolutely not.
Speaker 9: What a change of what we were thinking, because usually
Speaker 9: when we have a geopolitical situation like what we're going through,
Speaker 9: the markets end up reacting in a lot of ways,
Speaker 9: in a negative way because Wall Street does not like uncertainty.
Speaker 9: But this morning and yesterday we saw a rally for stocks.
Speaker 9: The price of oil has tumbled. Traders are pretty optimistic
Speaker 9: about the conflict de escalating and there hasn't been any signs.
Speaker 3: Of disruption to the flow of crude.
Speaker 9: That is huge. Oil yesterday dropped eight and a half percent.
Speaker 9: That was a big tumble. It's down about ten percent
Speaker 9: over the past two days, and right now it's trading
Speaker 9: at sixty five dollars a barrel. This morning, we're building
Speaker 9: on yesterday's gains. The dow right now is to two
Speaker 9: up two hundred eighty two points. Another thing that we
Speaker 9: are watching those Federal Reserve Jay Powell. He's due to
Speaker 9: testify before Congress starting this morning, so a lot of
Speaker 9: the people are wondering what he's going to say because
Speaker 9: he's been facing a lot of pressure from President Trump,
Speaker 9: who says that interest rate should be at least two
Speaker 9: to three points lower than it is right now.
Speaker 1: Okay, you mentioned interest rates, and of course that has
Speaker 1: to do with houses, and a lot of people used
Speaker 1: to flip homes.
Speaker 3: That was a big thing. Apparently that's kind of a flop. Yeah.
Speaker 9: The home buying slowdown that we've been seeing all across
Speaker 9: the country appears to really be affecting flippers. So according
Speaker 9: to real estate analytics from Adam, the first three months
Speaker 9: of the year marked the lowest number of flips in
Speaker 9: a quarter since twenty eighteen. Returns have also been falling,
Speaker 9: So a typical flip home saw about twenty five percent
Speaker 9: return on investment in the first quarter, but that's a
Speaker 9: decline from the recent high of close to forty nine
Speaker 9: percent in the fall of twenty twenty and twenty twenty.
Speaker 9: Everybody was making money and there was just a lot
Speaker 9: of run. Especially if you were a seller. You were
Speaker 9: able to really gain a lot because so many people
Speaker 9: were moving, i know, out of cities into suburbs, and
Speaker 9: the whole entire thing changed the game. The pandemic changed
Speaker 9: the game. But it's it's been rough go because mortgage
Speaker 9: rates have been so high. I mean, if you look
Speaker 9: at the average for a thirty year fixed loan right now,
Speaker 9: according to Freddie Mac, it's six point eight one percent,
Speaker 9: close to seven percent.
Speaker 1: That's pretty high, all right, so might want to hold
Speaker 1: off on I was the flip flipping house seemed like
Speaker 1: such a kind of a cool idea, but again that
Speaker 1: was when prices were really low, and now just maybe
Speaker 1: not such a great idea.
Speaker 3: I still love watching them on HDT. Yeah, don't get
Speaker 3: me wrong. I'll still watch them absolutely exactly.
Speaker 1: All right, Getting in your business with Bloomberg's Courtney Donaho
Speaker 1: as we do every day at five point forty.
Speaker 3: Thanks Cartney, Courtney. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Definitely see
Speaker 3: you later, all right.
Speaker 1: Israel's accused Iran of a launching missiles that sent civilians
Speaker 1: scrambling into bomb shelters. Denies firing missiles after the ceasefire
Speaker 1: took effect. President Trump's both sides have violated it, and
Speaker 1: added before he took off for the NATO summit that
Speaker 1: he is not happy with Israel. The number of measles
Speaker 1: cases so far this year in California has now surpassed
Speaker 1: the number of cases for all of twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1: There are sixteen confirmed cases. Measles was eradicated in the
Speaker 1: US in the year two thousand, but infections are going
Speaker 1: up because of declining vaccination rates. In California, Measles cases
Speaker 1: have been confirmed in La Riverside, Sacramento, Placer, and Santa
Speaker 1: Clara Counties, down but not out. Governor Newsim's has more
Speaker 1: than half of forty eight new film projects that have
Speaker 1: been awarded tax credits will shoot in the LA area,
Speaker 1: which has seen a sharp drop off in film production.
Speaker 1: Newsims says the projects will generate six hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: four million dollars in production spending statewide and will create
Speaker 1: thousands of jobs. Most of the projects are indie films
Speaker 1: just minutes away from a handle on the news this
Speaker 1: morning that shopping cart could cost you twenty five hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: Wal Mart and Target cracking down on cart thieves. Let's
Speaker 1: say good morning now to the host of money on KFI.
Speaker 1: It's Joel lurs Guard Morning.
Speaker 3: Joel.
Speaker 15: Morning, Amy.
Speaker 3: I hear your sweating and at your son's swimming practice.
Speaker 15: Yeah, I am. Can we talk to Yeah.
Speaker 3: We just talked to Courtney Donaho with Bloomberg.
Speaker 1: She's also in New York and said that she's just
Speaker 1: sweating to death, really hot.
Speaker 15: This heat wave is something crazy, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, the pool is the place to be, so
Speaker 1: glad you're there, but that doesn't prohibit us from talking
Speaker 1: about money. And I think this is very interesting for
Speaker 1: the people who are fans of the buy now, pay
Speaker 1: later trend.
Speaker 3: It could affect your credit score now.
Speaker 15: Yeah, and you and I have talked about this a
Speaker 15: few times. By now pay later in general, and I'm
Speaker 15: not a fan of the proliferation. There are a number
Speaker 15: of companies now that allow you to pay for whatever
Speaker 15: you want under the sun, essentially in installment, from groceries
Speaker 15: to airplane tickets to grub hub, and it just it
Speaker 15: unsettles me every time I hear about BNPL, you know,
Speaker 15: wandering into a new way to pay for something random
Speaker 15: and yees so now, but the part of the problem
Speaker 15: has been for lenders is as buy now, pay later
Speaker 15: has become this bigger segment of the market, well, lenders
Speaker 15: are saying, we don't know who we're lending to. And
Speaker 15: maybe they've got twenty six outstanding by now pay later
Speaker 15: loans that they've paid late on and that would show
Speaker 15: that they don't handle credit terribly well, but that doesn't
Speaker 15: get reported to the bureaus. So it's really hard for
Speaker 15: them to know who is a good person to lend
Speaker 15: credit to, and who are to yeah to lend to
Speaker 15: make a loan to, and who's not and so yeah,
Speaker 15: finally we're starting to see the addition of buy now,
Speaker 15: pay later into the credit scoring models, and Fico is
Speaker 15: really a leader here at Fico's like basically the biggest
Speaker 15: player in the credit scoring game, and they're going to
Speaker 15: start working with a firm. We've seen a firm start
Speaker 15: reporting anyway to some of the credit bureaus. To standardize
Speaker 15: how this impacts credit scores has been the tough part.
Speaker 15: But it seems like Fiko has the first robust model
Speaker 15: that they're going to implement.
Speaker 1: Okay, So I have a question about credit scores in general. Sure,
Speaker 1: eight hundred used to be like the top. That's that's
Speaker 1: as good as it could get. Well, mine's way over
Speaker 1: eight hundred. When did that change that nine hundred is
Speaker 1: the top score?
Speaker 10: Now?
Speaker 15: Okay, First, that sounds like a humble brag amy, which
Speaker 15: is fine. You can do that let people know how
Speaker 15: great you are. So that's that's a really good question.
Speaker 1: I've worked really hard to have good credit, but it's
Speaker 1: just it was never that high. And now I'm like,
Speaker 1: how did it get that high? I didn't I haven't
Speaker 1: done anything different.
Speaker 15: You deserve the credit. I want you to have that credit.
Speaker 15: But it just made me what happens with credit scores.
Speaker 15: The thing is there's there. There are so many of
Speaker 15: them it's not even funny. So some of them go
Speaker 15: up to eight fifty, some of them go up to
Speaker 15: nine hundred. I believe it's trains that user scores up
Speaker 15: to nine hundred. And so every each bureau has different
Speaker 15: scoring models, and even underneath each bureau, like for instance, FCO,
Speaker 15: is mentioning which which credit scores they're well, they're creating
Speaker 15: new credit scores and incorporate buy now, pay later. But
Speaker 15: some lenders might say, hey, actually we're still rolling with
Speaker 15: the FYCO eight scores, and these are FICO ten T
Speaker 15: or whatever like they're they're renaming and adding different scores
Speaker 15: that these lenders can purchase in order to delve in
Speaker 15: and see, uh, you know, the credit worthiness of a
Speaker 15: potential borrower. And so these credit scores run the gamut.
Speaker 15: I would hold loosely kind of that number and just
Speaker 15: kind of a generally good credit score that that is
Speaker 15: going to be top tier to get the best rates
Speaker 15: on a mortgage or a car loan or something like
Speaker 15: that is going to be seven forty plus or seven
Speaker 15: sixty plus. If you're in that range, you don't need
Speaker 15: to sweat it whether you know it'll be like, I
Speaker 15: gotta get it up to eight fifty, I gotta get perfect.
Speaker 15: To me that that pursuit of the perfect credit score
Speaker 15: is a waste of your time. Good enough is good enough,
Speaker 15: and it's going to get you where you want to go.
Speaker 15: But I get why it's confusing, because there are just
Speaker 15: dozens of credit scores out there on you, many of
Speaker 15: which were not pretty to okay.
Speaker 1: And I will tell you that I can speak from
Speaker 1: firsthand that you are correct, because I went in just
Speaker 1: I can't even remember what it was, but I went
Speaker 1: in and I and I said, but I've got this
Speaker 1: really great credit score, and they go, huh, like it
Speaker 1: didn't matter, like you said, once you get up to
Speaker 1: like seven forty seven sixty, that's like top tier and
Speaker 1: it doesn't make a difference really After.
Speaker 15: That, Yeah, you're still going to get the best rates
Speaker 15: on loans that you might that you might be wanting
Speaker 15: to take out. One one place I like for people
Speaker 15: to go is is credit karma dot com. And if
Speaker 15: you go to credit Karma and you create an account
Speaker 15: be aware of they'll try to, like, you know, get
Speaker 15: your sign up for credit cards. We'll try to entice
Speaker 15: you to sign up for credit products because they're going
Speaker 15: to know a lot about you. But the cool thing
Speaker 15: is there's like credit score cards that you can you
Speaker 15: can tap into and you can see, Okay, what is
Speaker 15: harming my credit score? If I have a poor credit score,
Speaker 15: You'll be able to like see two of your credit
Speaker 15: scores recurring credit. Your credit card company is typically going
Speaker 15: to have great credit information for you that's widely available.
Speaker 15: That wasn't the case twenty years ago, but it is now,
Speaker 15: so there's so many ways to kind of check in
Speaker 15: on your status. Hey, what's my credit looking like? How
Speaker 15: can I beef that up? How can I improve my
Speaker 15: credit so that I am getting the best terms when
Speaker 15: I do need to borrow?
Speaker 3: All right?

Speaker 1: you need college and new cell phone plans.
