Systemic And Self-Inflicted Economic Pain Fueled George Floyd Protests | WALL STREET MEETS WASHINGTON EP. 10

The Daily Caller White House correspondent Christian Datoc sits down with Wall Street guru and CEO of Farvahar Partners Omeed Malik every Friday for a new episode of “WALL STREET MEETS WASHINGTON.” It’s the only show that breaks down the beltway’s economic updates for both financial VIPs and everyday Americans looking for market tips.

We kicked things off this week with a new scoop from Omeed — anyone want to take a guess at why the firm behind the retracted hydroxychloroquine study pushed back on its efficacy so hard? Maybe it had something to do with the fact they were developing their very own coronavirus testing system. (RELATED: May Jobs Report: 2.5 Million Jobs Gained, Unemployment Falls To 13.3%)

Christian also gave a breakdown of what’s happening inside Washington to make sure the people who are in the most economic pain — American workers, not corporations — are the actual recipients of the next round of coronavirus stimulus aid. Unfortunately, there are 3 key factors stopping round 4 from seeing daylight.

The guys also took a deep dive on the economic pain, both systemic and self-inflicted, that is a driving force behind the George Floyd protests. Not only are we getting the revolution we predicted if politicians don’t start changing the way they approach fiscal policy, but we’ve got yet another illustration of the great migration of the 21st century: out of American cities.
