War powers, California’s governor race, SpaceX and screwworm
About this episode
The episode discusses the U.S. House's vote on the war with Iran, the California governor primary, SpaceX's potential IPO, and the detection of screwworm in the U.S.
The U.S. House votes to end the war with Iran in the clearest rebuke yet of President Donald Trump’s handling of the conflict. Two leaders emerge in California’s governor primary setting up a rare Republican-Democrat matchup in November. SpaceX hits the road as it gears up for what could be the biggest IPO ever. And flesh-eating screwworm is detected in the U.S. for the first time in 60 years. * We incorrectly stated in this episode that California has not seen a Democrat face a Republican in the gubernatorial election in 15 years. As recently as 2022, Gavin Newsom faced Republican Brian Dahle in the general election. Listen to the Morning Bid podcast here. Sign up for the Reuters Econ World newsletter here.
