Polling the Public: Inflation Fight or Wealth Tax? 3/31/22

Wall Street and Washington are still hung up on the Biden administration’s proposed billionaire income tax, but pollster and political strategist Frank Luntz says the majority of Americans are more concerned about gas independence and inflation than they are about wealth. Newly declassified U.S. intelligence indicates Russian President Vladimir Putin feels he was misled by military leaders who did not tell him key details about the botched invasion of Ukraine because they feared angering him, according to top Biden administration officials. The Biden administration is expected to end the asylum limits at the U.S.-Mexico border originally put in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The policy has blocked more than 1.7 million attempts by immigrants to cross the border since its start during the Trump administration in March 2020. Plus, CNBC’s Bertha Coombs reports that Walgreens Boots Alliance shares are falling as demand linked to the Covid pandemic slows, and the anchors are singing their way down memory lane.
