Summary
Stephanie Ruhle joins Joanna Coles for a candid and incisive conversation examining the economic fallout from Trump’s escalating conflict with Iran and expands into a sharp examination of wealth, power, political influence, and the growing disconnect between Wall Street and everyday Americans. Ruhle breaks down why soaring energy costs, healthcare struggles, and what she calls a new era of American oligarchs could reshape the political landscape, while offering candid insights into Trump’s inner circle, the battle over the Federal Reserve, and the culture of loyalty surrounding his administration. She also weighs in on the turmoil at CBS News and 60 Minutes, the future of independent journalism, and the launch of her new MS NOW morning show, ‘Money, Power, Politics,’ before revealing how she hopes to connect business, culture, and politics in a way traditional news often misses.
