Newt talks with Thomas Hoenig, Distinguished Senior Fellow at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University, about the state of the economy.

Yet, in poll after poll, Americans say inflation and the economy are their top issues. Newt’s guest is Thomas Hoenig. He is the former Vice Chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, former President and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.
