Pete Buttigieg, Golfers Striking Back, & Fake News Propaganda 8/4/22

Gas prices may have peaked for now, but the road to lower inflation is long. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg discusses the U.S. energy economy and the giant inflation reduction act crafted by Senate Democrats. Pro golfer Phil Mickelson and ten of his co-competitors have filed an antitrust lawsuit against the PGA after their participation in the Saudi-backed LIV tournament prompted suspensions from the PGA Tour. Tom Cruise’s performance in “Top Gun” impressed audiences, but not enough to lift Paramount Global’s stock price. CNBC’s Eamon Javers reports that cyber security firm Mandiant has released research on a fake news propaganda ring in China. Plus, Walmart has announced layoffs just a week after cutting its profit outlook.
