Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, through their 'DOGE' agency, seek $2 trillion in cuts to federal spending. Joy Reid and Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) discuss the implications.
There's a key scene in the Christmas classic 'It's a Wonderful Life' that you might need to explain to younger viewers. Small-town banker George Bailey, played by ineffable everyman Jimmy Stewart, is facing a lobby full of angry customers who think the business might fail and are demanding to withdraw all their savings. But the bank doesn't have enough cash on hand — in fact, it never does, because it's already loaned it to other customers.
It can be hard to understand how much of a difference this makes. Even into his nineties, my grandfather, who grew up during the Great Depression, lived in so much fear of bank runs that he kept small savings accounts and safe deposit boxes with rare coins in different banks all over his hometown. My mom spent months after he died tracking down and closing all those long-forgotten accounts.
