What BBN said about it

  1. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorItalian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni is holding an emergency meeting after two days of rioting in Milan, where more than two hundred people were detained.

  2. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt began Saturday beside a sanctioned cost-of-living demonstration. With me is life coach Marguerite Oyelaran-Voss. Marguerite, what do you make of it?

  3. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossI think it's a manifestation issue. Those people wanted lower prices, but they held that wish in a loud, unfocused way.

  4. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossLet me reframe that: it's a vibes shortfall.

  5. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA Carrefour, an Under Armour and a Levi's were among the places looted. Is that a vibes shortfall?

  6. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossNo, that's receiving. Let me reframe that: the stores were in an exchange the universe hadn't finished invoicing.

  7. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossI keep a jade egg for exactly this. It's my budget.

  8. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorYour budget is an egg.

  9. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossIt's never overdrawn.

  10. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossHank, the damage is estimated at more than five hundred million euros, and it's just a large number that hasn't been loved yet.

  11. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorPolice say eighty percent of the detainees were minors, and many reportedly shared selfies as they bragged about the damage. Did they manifest that?

  12. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossThey manifested visibility. Let me reframe the selfies as a gratitude practice. Honestly, I'd say the real problem is the meeting.

  13. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossA meeting is where abundance goes to sit down.

  14. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorMeloni wrote that to demonstrate is a right and to lay cities to waste is not. I assume the meeting is about security.

  15. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorShould it be about prices?

  16. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossPrices are a word I don't use. Let me reframe it as the cost of becoming.

  17. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo is that a no?

  18. Marguerite Oyelaran-VossIt's a yes in a different outfit. My workbook covers all of it, and it's available now.

  19. Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThank you, Marguerite. I see the workbook is thirty-four dollars. So prices do come up. Rex, who's costing you a fortune today?
