The American economy continues to be one of the strongest in the world.  The stock market is booming, the unemployment rate is at a near 50-year low and GDP has been steadily growing.

But there's a huge contingent of Americans who either don't know about those economic facts ... or they don't care.

KNX chief correspondent Charles Feldman put those questions to Diane Swonk, she's the chief economist for KPMG:

The vast majority of respondents in this Guardian poll ... 72% ... indicated they think inflation is increasing. And yet, in reality, the rate of inflation has fallen sharply from its post-Covid peak.

Tomorrow morning, UCLA Chancellor Gene Block will be answering tough questions over violence on campus during several weeks of pro-Palestinian protests.

Block, along with her crosstown colleague USC president Carol Folt, have been the targets of criticism.

Ariela Gross teaches constitutional law at UCLA Law School ... she tells KNX News that she feels Chancellor Block handled the protests poorly ... but she's still hopeful he takes a stand tomorrow.

Gross argues that there were plenty of valuable lessons to learn from all this, but she's not entirely confident that university leadership across the country will apply those lessons in the future.

UCLA's chancellor will appear alongside the presidents of Rutgers and Northwestern universities at tomorrow morning's House hearing.
