Personal income increased by 0.8% in April, well ahead of the forecasted 0.3%, CNBC reported on Friday. In an X post on Friday, the White House’s Rapid Response account posted a report by CNBC’s Rick Santelli in which he showed the data that reveals the 0.8% increase. CNBC: Personal income increased 0.8% in April — “almost TRIPLE the expectations.” ? “They’re powerful numbers — up 0.6% in January, up 0.7% in February, up 0.5% last month, up 0.8% this month. This is a GREAT four-month start to any year.” pic.twitter.com/s1Rx1KAYFl — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) May 30, 2025 “Personal income is up eight-tenths of a percent,” Santelli states. “That is almost triple the expectations. … When you look at income for the first four months of the year, they’re powerful numbers. Up six-tenths in January, up seven-tenths in February, up a half of 1% last month, and up eight-tenths this month. This is a great four month start to any year.” Per the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, personal income increased by $210.1 billion in April. Disposable personal income (DPI) increased by $189.4 billion, which is also 0.8%, and personal consumption expenditures (PCE) increased by $47.8 billion, which is 0.2%.

This is in line with the consensus, but is significantly less than its 0.7% increase in March. Consumers also showed more wary spending habits, as April’s personal savings were $1.12 trillion and the personal saving rate was 4.7%. “The increase in current-dollar personal income in April primarily reflected increases in government social benefits to persons and in compensation,” the Bureau wrote. “The $47.8 billion increase in current-dollar PCE in April reflected an increase of $55.8 billion in spending on services that was partly offset by a decrease of $8.0 billion in spending for goods.” In his report, Santelli revealed the impressive news that “eight-tenths is the strongest month-over-month jump since May of 2021, when it was 1.9%.”

President Trump declined to rule out a pardon for disgraced rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs if the hip-hop mogul is convicted on federal sex trafficking charges. Trump made the remarks during an Oval Office press conference alongside Elon Musk on Friday, “Nobody’s asked. But I know people are thinking about it. I know they’re thinking about it. I think some people have been very close to asking,” the president said in response to Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy. Trump said he hasn’t been following the case closely, but was aware of the extensive media coverage the trial was receiving. Combs, 55, has been held without bail since his September arrest on federal sex trafficking and racketeering charges in Manhattan. Combs’ trial began in early May, and if convicted, the Bad Boy Records founder faces life in prison. The president acknowledged his former ties to the embattled music mogul, but added that he hasn’t seen or spoken to Combs in years. “I haven’t seen him, I haven’t spoken to him in years,” Trump said. “He used to really like me a lot, but I think when I ran for politics … that relationship busted up, from what I read. I don’t know — he didn’t tell me that, but I’d read some little bit nasty statements.” Trump emphasized that any pardon decision would be based solely on the merits of the case. “I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don’t like me, it wouldn’t have any impact on me,” he stated.

Trump issued 17 pardons and nine commutations on Wednesday alone, according to the New York Post. Get 40% Off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships Prosecutors allege the music mogul used his fame and power to orchestrate what they call “freak offs” — sexual performances involving paid sex workers that were reportedly recorded without consent. Recent testimony in the federal sex-trafficking trial has revealed allegations from Diddy’s former assistant “Mia” about rape and violence, corroborating accounts from stylist Deonte Nash, who testified to witnessing Combs physically assault Cassie Ventura until her head was bleeding. Ventura testified that Combs raped her after they had broken up. Diddy has pleaded not guilty on all charges.

Alan Alda has been a staple in Hollywood since the 1960s. Most remember Alan as Hawkeye Pierce on the hit show M*A*S*H*. Even with health challenges, Alan has enjoyed a decades-long career. Doctors diagnosed him with Parkinson’s disease in 2015 but kept his condition private until 2018. Alan Alda recently revealed to People that he has been suffering from prosopagnosia, or face blindness, for years. At one point, Alan’s face blindness even made it hard for him to recognize his own daughter. “I saw this person with horn-rimmed glasses and blonde hair staring at me, and it was starting to get distracting,” Alan told People. “I said to the assistant director, ‘Don’t let these strangers come on the set.’ He said, ‘That’s your daughter!’ I don’t think she was too happy about that, because neither of us knew that there was such a thing as face blindness [at the time].” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Alan Alda Clear+Vivid Podcast (@clearandvivid) Alan Alda Said He Has A Very Hard Time Recognizing People The M*A*S*H* star told People that even when he works with someone for an entire day, he might not know them hours later. “When somebody comes up to me, as if they know me, I often don’t know if they know me from seeing me on the screen or if I actually know them,” he explained. “I could have dinner with somebody, spend two hours with somebody next to me, and the next day not know who they are.” Alan Alda credits his wife of 68 years, Arlene Alda, for being a loving and caring partner for so many years. “She always says, ‘The secret to marriage is a short memory,'” Alan told People. “We both try to practice being there when we’re there: listening, answering, taking an interest. You can get used to somebody no matter who it is. I’ve always thought if the Pope and Mother Teresa were a couple, after a few years, they’d have to work it out.” This story’s featured image is by Ron Adar via Shutterstock.
