head of the fed jay powell will speak today. wasn't necessarily planned to coincide with the jobs report but it's an excellent coincidence. the president just tweeted, where did i get this guy, jerome? oh well, you can't win them all. president trump appointed jay or jerome powell replacing berkeley's janet yellen who was an economist. powell not an economist. powell under a lot of pressure to cut interest rates. now the national economic council who would not allow the post to use their names say mr. trump told them one of the reasons he replaced janet yellen was she was short. she's just over five feet. ironically she was considered someone who leans toward interest rate cuts. as we first reported to you on thursday on "today in the bay," a number of states will hold a press conference monday to announce major investigati hig . the "wall street journal" has refined that reporting to say it will involve google and facebook. the new york attorney general will lead an investigation in to facebook. the texas attorney general will

after a couple of bars, one of them, the bosses son, jay, invite a couple of us back to his house in kensington for some after drinks. about nine hours later i wa ke drinks. about nine hours later i wake up in this random place with no idea where i am and no sign of my collea g u es idea where i am and no sign of my colleagues anywhere. this house was huge, it was a mansion. fourfloors and tons of rooms. really hard to navigate. believe me, when you are visually impaired trying to get out of disabled toilet without feeling up of disabled toilet without feeling up the changing table is hard enough, so this was a massive struggle. i am enough, so this was a massive struggle. iam in enough, so this was a massive struggle. i am in a enough, so this was a massive struggle. iam in a rush enough, so this was a massive struggle. i am in a rush because i'm trying to get home for my nephew's first birthday party, so i get out of bed and i come to the first door which happens to be an ensuite toilet. i'm there for five or ten minutes, and then i hear suddenly there's a voice coming from close b

jay powell will hold a press conference after that announcement. this is important, because the fed's under huge presh from the white house to lower rates. it's unlikely, actually it's impossible the fed's going to lower rates as far as donald trump wants it to. president trump, who should not really be telling the fed what to do at all is demanding zero percent interest rates. the fed's not going to do that. the president wants to refinance government debt but that's not how it work. the fed does not set mortgage rates but they are at a three-year low. a 30-year fixed as low as 3.56 nationwide. tougher to get in california because that assumes a 20% downpayment. speaking of not living in california, the san francisco clothing company chubbies is leaving san francisco, bound for austin, it will take about 40 employees with it. we've seen a number of apparel and equipment companies leave the bay area. i gave these guys an entrepreneur of the year award about three or four years ago, my black tie, tuxedo full orchestra sort of award ceremony. of cour

not enough for president trump who tweeted jay powell and the federal reserve fail again. no guts, no sense, no vision. a terrible communicator. donald trump wants zero percent interest which is not going to happen. the government can already borrow at historically very low rates and fiscal conservatives would argue it's already too easy for the government to borrow. we're at record deficits. the fed's jay powell for his part did communicate saying one of the reasons the fed is cutting is the trade war can hurt our economy. >> the fed has no role in the formulation of trade policy but we take into account anything that could materially affect the economy relative to our inflation goals. >> facebook's mark zuckerberg will be in washington today trying to strengthen some relationships there as federal agencies in congress pursue antitrust investigations. not just against facebook but all of the silicon valley companies. here he is testifying in april of last year. now today's meetings will not be testimony just face-to-face in offices. zuckerberg has a long list of things he
