- Oil prices slightly up, but expecting further decline: “Oil’s…still hovering in the 60 area. It’s going to break through…That’s great for inflation.”
- Precious metals (“Gold up again…Approaching record highs again. Silver ripping”) and crypto updates (“traded just under 124,000 to the Bitcoin earlier today”) set the economic context.

- Strong support for police:
- “The mayor and my whole city council, we are strongly behind our first responders…We have one of the highest starting salaries for police officers in the nation, which allows us to be very choosy about who we add.” [09:10]
