Biden cracks down on ‘junk fees’ in new economic focus ahead of midterms

CNN, FII INSTITUTE, CONFERENCE BOARDBy Betsy Klein, Maegan Vazquez and Arlette Saenz, CNNPresident Joe Biden on Wednesday said his administration is cracking down on so-called junk fees, including announcing new steps that effectively ban banks from issuing surprise overdraft fees and depositor fees on bounced checks. Biden on Wednesday said that the new moves on junk fees will “immediately start saving Americans collectively billions of dollars in unfair fees,” and that he has directed his administration to “reduce or eliminate” other junk fees. Tackling hidden fees was a key component of the President’s meeting with the White House Competition Council last month.

SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket, world’s most powerful rocket, launches after three-year hiatus

The Falcon Heavy debuted in 2018 to much fanfare as SpaceX CEO Elon Musk elected to launch his personal Tesla Roadster as a test payload on the launch. Since that first test mission, SpaceX has launched only two other Falcon Heavy missions, both in 2019. SpaceX’s workhorse Falcon 9 rocket, on the other hand, has launched nearly 50 missions so far this year alone. With each Falcon Heavy launch, the rocket puts on a dramatic showing back on Earth. The Starship system is expected to out-power both SLS and Falcon Heavy by a wide margin.

Logano won in 2018 and Elliott won in 2020 in the first of back-to-back Hendrick Motorsports championships.

But Bell has been down before in these playoffs and won twice to avoid elimination and make it to his first title race. If it takes a victory to win, Bell proved he can do it twice, including last week’s dramatic win at Martinsville to save his season. And since the winner-take-all format was established in 2014, the champion has won the final race to claim the Cup.
