The first public hearing of the Congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol left no doubt as to its position on who was responsible. House members labeled the deadly attempt to block the transfer of power an “attempted coup https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3...” and said it was the bloody culmination of a seven-part plan that began before the 2020 election—a plan ultimately moved forward by one person. The bipartisan committee alleged criminal acts by Donald Trump and his aides https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3..., punctuating arguments with gruesome video of his followers doing violence to Capitol police, along with similarly powerful witness testimony. With more public hearings https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... scheduled through the month, the world is likely to get more insight https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... into the events of that day and other facets https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... of a purportedly wide-ranging bid to subvert American democracy. But Congress cannot prosecute federal crimes—that’s the job of the Department of Justice. Its unprecedented nationwide probe continues to slowly accumulate https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... arrests, guilty pleas, cooperators and convictions. As Congress completes its report, all eyes will turn to Attorney General Merrick Garland https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3..., and the course of his inquiry into an alleged seditious conspiracy. *—David E.

The consumer price index increased 8.6% https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... from a year earlier, Labor Department data showed Friday. That figure, however, included the more volatile food and energy https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... components, which are stripped out when measuring “core” CPI, which rose 0.6% from the prior month. President Joe Biden ripped Vladimir Putin and his war on Ukraine for high gas prices, as well as Big Oil, saying “Exxon made more money than god https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... .” *When the nineties ended*, an overvalued stock market took three long years to rid itself of its accumulated excess in what is now known as the dot-com crash.

The Last 12 Houses on Fisher Island Are for Sale https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3... Fisher Island, the famously rarefied enclave just south of Miami Beach, accessible only by ferry or helicopter, has roughly 800 residences that have been occupied by the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Boris Becker. Now, the community, which for years claimed the title of America’s richest zip code, will have 12 new single-family homes https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3.... The mansions will have about 10,000 square feet and cost around $3,300 for each one, meaning that—at roughly $33 million apiece—they have the potential to be the most expensive real estate on the island. They’ll also be some of its last. https://link.mail.bloombergbusiness.com/click/28020796.858049/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3...
