Feds hike interest rates

For the second time in 3 months, the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates, and documents surface showing Donald Trump’s 2005 tax forms. Dutch voters head to the polls for the general election in the midst of the rise in nationalism we’ve seen across the West. Bianca Facchinei has the story. Former US Trading Commissioner Bart Chilton joins us to discuss the latest with top level executives, industry leaders, and global financial regulators as they meet in Florida this week. We also take a look at AT&T’s proposed $85 billion purchase of Time Warner, and the much needed blessing it received from the EU. Alex Mahailovich looks into Donald Trump’s pick for trade secretary, Robert Lighthizer, and how senators from both sides are demanding more than a “tweak” to trade with Canada. Manuel Rapalo has the latest on Monsanto, as the company remains under fire.
