robert: the market drives the equilibrium rate. going back to 2003, we marked down our forecast in the long run, that the 10-year would average 3%. then as we came down averaging 3%, looking at the feedback from the economy, marked down to 2.5, 2. then we said the central tendency is probably 1.5, but it will take a year or two to get there. even though that may sound crazy, when you look at other places where the central bank is actually running the mandate as stated -- australia, new zealand, they want the good growth, they see the room on inflation, they cut rates. their rates are much lower than ours. the market is bringing the fed to that. the slower they go on the front end, the quicker the back end goes down. jonathan: that is the story. do you feel uncomfortable holding duration? everyone has said i have heard nothing this week that makes me uncomfortable holding duration. do you want to lock in your profits on treasuries? no. i don't want to give up that coupon, that is the response i give. i did find somebody who wants to

robert mueller said it under oath that the russians are doing it as we speak. trump's own fbi director christopher wray under my questioning and others just last week said the same thing. his own intelligence director dan coates who is now sadly resigning said that they are getting bolder. so it is undeniable that this is happening. they've done it through hacking and done it through dirty propaganda online. and both of these things we could take steps to decrease the possibility of in happening. as i said today, this is about our democracy. hundreds of thousands of people lost lives on battlefields to protect our right to vote in our democracy. four little girls lost life in a church in birmimgham at the height of the civil rights movement because we stood up for our democracy. for this guy to make jokes about it all the time it's unpatriotic and unamerican. and this can't wait for a new president, lawrence. there are 11 states that don't have backup paper ballots. anything we can do to get the backup paper boolgts some are partial some not at all. we could ha

department of justice released the redacted version of special counsel robert muller report. it concluded there was no conspiracy between the truck campaign in moscow. the democrats demanded the unproductive report and for mahler to testify before congress. on july 24th 2019 now former special counsel robert mueller testified before 2 congressional committees. or concluded there was insufficient evidence to charge any trunk campaign member with conspiracy but he cannot exonerate president trump on obstruction of justice and what about total exoneration you actually totally exonerate the president. there was no defense to this ridiculous hoax just what china has been going on for. a long time. the bitter battle for washington still continues. however we've got no shortage of subtle storms on the cars folia us as we go on through the next couple of days and even north of the border because say some showers into central and eastern parts of canada have had a society off the continent saying some very heavy rain labview down poles temp just getting up to around 3132 celsius set i

robert, do you understand that?k terry this. do you get that aspect? >> i do understand that aspect, laura, however, again, this is counterintelligence investigation, there aren't any 302s, for even example, counterintelligence assets are not reported on 302s, they're a reported on memos and what we used to call inserts. so they're not the same kind of -- they don't have the same kind of oversight that you would think is -- that you would see in the criminal field. so who knows? as harmeed just said, there's a question of all of the characters o in this play and nothing about his interview that bothers me at all. it all seems pretty reasonable. >> what i'm going to say, the three of you, i hope john durham in connecticut, i hope this isff all part of the effects that he's going through. all of this seems too bizarre and too convenient and a lot of these explanations. i appreciate it all.oothank you. up next, president trump make it is clear, he will not stand for china's trade war retaliation. we're going to break down the biggest misconception of the

rucho chief justice roberts -- issue inon the key part five of the decision where roberts and the four liberals on the court rejected secretary ross's contention that compliance was the reason for putting the question on the census. roberts and the liberal members of the court thought this was pretextual. in other words, ross was not telling the truth. they decided that because ross indicated shortly after taking office in early that he wanted a 2017 citizenship question on the census but it was not until march 2018 that he said the doj had requested the question in order to ensure better compliance with the vra. the court acknowledged there was no legal or constitutional impediment to asking a citizenship question on the census. it had been asked on every census but one between 1820 and 2010. since the administrative seizure act allowed for review by the secretary of commerce, it was suspected that ross was not perfectly honest about the reason for the citizenship question on the census, quote meaningful judicial review of chief justice roberts put it cannot be had until the case had

robert: sure, sure. three main reasons. when we designed this, we didn't want to have this dependency on things like geology or geography or topology. dams, for example, rely on mountains and things. we want to be able to deliver this everywhere, it's so big, the problem we're solving. second, sustainability. chemical battery companies, how they get the material, the batteries degrade immediately when you install them. so, through cycling, they're going to degrade. our system doesn't degrade at all over time. so, you have to solve this with innovation across material science, design, and thinking always about sustainability of your environmental aspects every day. emily: eenergy vault's ceo robert piconi. coming up, a squirrel into tech. we're going to take a deep dive into the ftc probe of facebook next. and bloomberg tech is live streaming on twitter. be sure to follow our global breaking news network tictoc on twitter. this is bloomberg. ♪ from the couldn't be prouders to the wait did we just win-ners. everyone uses th

trump: i'm not sure robert mueller knows what is going on. all i know is he believes no collusion with us, no collusion. ultimately, no obstruction. as far as robert mueller's performance, you would have to say it is maybe not so good. not so good. reporter: [indiscernible] pres. trump: our country is doing very well. we are setting records in every way. including employment, unemployment. we have now more people working in the united states than ever before. the stock market, it will take a hit, but it will be phenomenal because ultimately it will be better because of what i am doing. someone should have done this with china a long time ago. they decided not to do it. they made a big mistake. i will say this. there has never been a time in the history of our country like we have right now. the highest number of people employed. the best employment numbers for african-americans, hispanic, women. for everybody. i mean, the best numbers we've ever had. our military is being rebuilt and it is almost fully rebuilt. it is going to be at a level in

thank you so much for coming to tonight's program featuring robert caro and conan o'brien.
