EXCERPT:

BERNSTEIN: "So, let me be unequivocal about that. This is no victory lap. This is no all -- all of these concerns are behind us. This is not at all, hey, you know, we used to have inflation and now it’s fine. Far from it. When the president says inflation is unacceptably high, he means it. But look, I mean, part of what we’re trying to do is present all of the information. When it -- when it looks good we're going to talk about that and when it looks bad we're going to be straightforward about that, too.”
