UP FIRST

 

First look:
 
  • McConnell getting pushback from GOP over debt deal with Dems
  • Elon Musk torches Biden's "Build Back Better" bill - "Don't pass it!"
  • Gen Z latest bad idea? Quitting your job on social media
  • Is the world safer after the Biden & Putin call? 

Senate debt deal has McConnell facing pushback from his own party

HeadlineMcConnell faces GOP pushback on debt deal

The First take: We realize this is the "sausage-making" part of governing. But anytime Democrats find a way to temporarily suspend the filibuster or create a "one time" exception, we get nervous. McConnell is basically telling his caucus, "Trust me." Until it all shakes out and the actual votes happen on the debt deal, we'll reserve judgement.

Elon Musk torches Biden's "Build Back Better" bill

HeadlineMUSK ON BUILD BACK: ‘Can This Bill. Don’t Pass it.’

The First take: Even though Musk's electric vehicle company would benefit from the incentives in the massive social spending bill, the unfiltered CEO recognizes the inherent fiscal irresponsibility of piling even more debt on America's "insane" deficit. Elon's also got things to say about our declining birth rate...it's in the bonus story below.

TickTok becomes "QuitTok"

HeadlineWelcome to QuitTok! Gen Z employees lauded by Prince Harry for quitting work due to bad management, toxic work culture and long hours celebrate their resignations on social media

The First take: Quitting your job on social media seems like a "punk move" to us. Then again, most of us come from a generation still using our cell phones to actually make and receive calls. It's not just a camera with a built in telephone.

Are we safer after Biden and Putin's two-hour video call? (Well...um, uh)

HeadlineBiden’s National Security Adviser Refuses To Answer If World A Safer Place After Biden-Putin Meeting

The First take: To be honest, we were not expecting Putin to tell Biden that Russia was pulling troops back from the Ukraine border. We would just like to know if the repercussions we presented to the Russian President are serious enough to deter his possible invasion of Ukraine. We also encourage you to watch Bill O'Reilly's breakdown in the BONUS section below.
