The Indicator from Planet Money - Is an American sovereign wealth fund such a bad idea?

Sovereign wealth funds have been around since the 1800s, but they're having a bit of a moment right now ... The financial instrument was recently name-dropped in HBOs 'Industry' (good show!) and members of both the Biden administration and the Trump campaign have floated the idea of an American sovereign wealth fund.

That idea, for the most part, has been derided by economists. But... is an American sovereign wealth fund such a bad idea?

On today's show: What IS a sovereign wealth fund? Is a US national sovereign wealth fund a good or even viable idea?

The Gist - For Israel, Tactics Are Strategy

As Iran officially entered the war against Israel this morning, launching just short of 200 ballistic missiles at numerous Israeli targets, pundits continued to praise Israel's tactics but question its strategy. The thing is, the tactics ("kill enemy") and strategy ("win war") seem pretty aligned. Also on the show, Washington Post Opinion columnist Dana Milbank joins us to discuss his newest book, Fools on the Hill: The Hooligans, Saboteurs, Conspiracy Theorists, and Dunces Who Burned Down the House.


Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara

The Bulwark Podcast - Lis Smith: Go After the Weird Angle

Meanwhile, Kamala seems to embrace a more robust media strategy, the weakest alpha in history can't bear to face off with her again, and Trump is the last person who would help make Americans more healthy.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Joe, Take the Win!

Why is the administration remaining churlish and full of ceasefire talk relating to Israel and Hezbollah and Hamas? Why are there no papers on the Resolute desk? Why is Kamala Harris visiting a Washington office rather than a flood site? Why should Jimmy Carter be celebrated for being 100 when his record as president was terrible and his behavior toward Israel appalling? Why isn't Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame? Give a listen.

Bay Curious - Proposition 33: Removing State Limits on Rent Control

For nearly 30 years, the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act has limited how far local governments can take rent control policies. This year, Proposition 33 asks California voters if they'd like to remove those limits. While nothing happens overnight, if Prop 33 passes, it could open the door for cities to control rents on any type of housing – including single-family homes and newer apartments. KQED housing reporter Vanessa Rancaño joins us to explore the issues.

Editor's Note: An earlier version of this podcast episode said nothing would change immediately if Prop 33 passes. In fact, several communities have laws that would immediately go into effect.
