Bridger Pennington examines conflicting reports about Trump and Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Trump said he wouldn't fire Powell, but Bloomberg reported he explored whether he could. The segment also covers Trump's tariff comments and a $1.5 trillion market rally that followed.

This is absolutely hilarious. In a live interview just moments ago, Trump says, I have no intention of firing Jerome Powell. I've been such a nice guy to him. Literally days ago, you just posted this, Trump. You were wanting to see if you had the authority to fire Jerome Powell. Even Bloomberg reported that you were asking the Supreme Court if you had the power to do this. He's come back, I never had intention to do this. Like, what's going on? Also today, Trump said tariffs on China will come down substantially and he doesn't want to play hardball anymore. The market just added $1.5 trillion. Big boom. We'll see what happens here.
