Ryan Schuiling Live

Jenifer Waller, CEO of the Colorado Bankers Association, joins Ryan to discuss credit card issues at the state and federal level that will affect consumers. 

A federal 10% interest rate cap on credit cards may not be what it appears - potentially resulting in reduced access to everyday credit and emergency liquidity, lower credit limits and tighter lending standards, and higher fees to offset increased risk for lenders.

A state bill would restrict interchange, following on the heels of a bill known as 'Stop the Skim' in shorthand and entitled HB25-1282 'Payment Card Network Practices & Fees.' Jenifer explains why a new bill, yet to be introduced, designed to restrict the fee merchants pay to accept credit cards is not the answer to rising business and consumer costs.

Rep. Gabe Evans (R, CO-8) joins with an update on legislation he is pursuing at the federal level to combat restrictive Artificial Intelligence laws in blue states, including 'algorithmic discrimination' in Colorado, which is sending companies like Palantir for greener (redder?) pastures and costing our state jobs.

Stephen L. Miller, Versus Media podcast host reflects on another banner week in the mainstream media, including Stephen Colbert claiming the Trump administration and the FCC were looking to shut down his interview with James Talerico, Democrat candidate for U.S. Senate in Texas. Turns out, neither the FCC or CBS had anything to do with scrapping the segment, as rival candidate Jasmine Crockett confirmed. So what was behind the lie?

Also, what's with so many Olympians getting political with their comments and alienating half of the nation that wants to root for them?
