BERNSTEIN: "Let's start out with a number: $5 billion. That's the amount of fees that retirement savers can lose because the rule - that we are putting into place – hasn't been there all along. Not every broker is doing the wrong thing by a long shot, but there are some brokers who pile on junk fees when they are selling somebody a retirement product."

On Wednesday, President Biden kicked off his Investing in America Rural Event Series by announcing over $5 billion in support for farmers and rural communities to help adopt climate-smart practices, build broadband networks, and develop new revenue streams.

On Thursday, National Economic Council Director Lael Brainard spoke in Bowling Green to the Kentucky Association of Manufacturers about how Bidenomics is delivering for the American people by creating jobs and lowering costs for consumers.

BRAINARD: "The reason there's so much focus on workforce is because we're seeing huge increases in private sector investments in manufacturing and of course construction of manufacturing facilities. That is leading to businesses looking for skilled workers."

On Friday, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released their October report which exemplified how Bidenomics has created a record 14 million jobs, an unemployment rate under 4% for the 21st month in a row and the highest share of working-age employed women.

BERNSTEIN: "[The numbers] tell me that the job market in the US remains extremely solid, very strong, providing lots of good opportunities to workers - and it's been doing so for months on end. So, we've had an unemployment rate nationally that's been below 4% for 21 months in a row. That's a 50+ year record, 14 million jobs since this President got here."
