bayelsaowei:Jerome Powell refusal to lower the Fed Rate means this debt is rising bu 3.35% if I'm right even without the govt spending anything. That's $1 Trillion or so a year. Looks like the long term plan was to make the debt unpayable , forcing govt to take drastic measures. More govt involvement in everything , more it tends to communism.. |

basilico:This was a Sep 2024 post Kash Patel is working on my dream . Obama deputy AG Sally Yates email ordering FBI to shut down the Clinton investigation has been released. She was being investigated for using pay to play with her private email server . Almost everyone granted a chance to see her at the State Department ended up donating to her Clinton Foundation. The top tier dirty players who haven't been named yet : Lisa Monaco, Mary McCord, Andrew Weissman, Norm Eisen whose career and lifelong ambitions are to take down Trump. According to recent declassed docs FBI was investigating an email Hillary sent to a "John Burke" from an airport runway in Russia. She used her private email address. Why would be they want to know who John Burke is? We know so far If Clinton had won James Comey : AG Andrew McCabe: FBI Director Loretta Lynch : Supreme Court Judge Pencil Neck Schiff: CIA Director Clearly Trump beating Clinton left a lot of butthurt in people,who took the suicidal route instead of moving on to their next phase in life. Loretta Lynch met secretly with Bill Clinton on the runway to discuss golf,travel, yoga and grandchildren . We know Hillary Clinton was getting updates from DOJ regarding her email investigation. One week this tarmac meeting Comey cleared Hillary saying no sane prosecutor would ever indict her if " John Burke' was Obama and such other crap. Loretta Lynch would have replaced Sotomayor, who had refused to resign thinking It was her turn to break the glass ceiling.Every other name I mentioned here was part of the Russian hoax peddlers including John Burke. |

So far, over 10 million households are either behind on their rent or mortgage payments 🙆🏽♂️ This is a pointer to the fact that the job market is tightening, resulting in an explosion of underemployment |

PDPGuy:Didn't know that Trump fired over 10 million federal employees . |
| Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by PDPGuy(op): 6:55am On Aug 14, 2025 |
basilico:Lol Of course didn’t fire that many employees. What I’m saying is that the general economic conditions (most of which predated both Biden, and Trump’s first term) are choking the working class |

PDPGuy:I presume that mortgage problem is a direct result of Powell and his 400 plus PhD holders at the Federal Reserve maintaining high fed rates. If he lowered it like he did for Obama ( 0% for about 7 years) the mortgage and interest rates would drastically come down, you think so? |

basilico:What was the inflation rate under Obama? You can look at Erdogan bullying Turkish Central Bank President to keep Interest Rate at 8% when inflation was over 50% for clues on what happens when interest rate to inflation parity is not maintained

basilico:All in line with the economic times. Any major deviation between interest rates and inflation is down to GDP growth and Job numbers. Macro Economics 101 High interest rates incentivizes savings and reduces spending. You deploy this in times of high inflation to reduce spending and the velocity of money to curb inflation Low interest rates incentivizes spending and borrowing and disincentivizes saving. You deploy this during economic slowdown (GDP decline and job losses) to encourage consumption and increase the velocity of money, allowing the economy to jumpstart So the Obama years was cut to zero in 2008 in response to the subprime crisis, 2020 (Trump year) was cut to zero due to 30% GDP decline and jobs losses of Covid. And 2022 Biden year was increased to curb the post COVID inflation. And now with inflation sticky above 2.5% it is being held at 4.25%, although I think 4% would have been OK |

Declassified by Tusli Gabbard is an email from NSA in Dec 2016. NSA director Mike Rogers emails Clapper telling him the ICA Obama wants is being hurried, his agents have not seen underlying intelligence to support Russia helped Trump. This was the ICA Obama ordered produced to show Putin interfered with elections while the real truth is that Putin didn't affect the results. He meddled , but wasn't enough . So James clapper repiies to NSA and tells him they have to be in line . They have to agree to the doctored ICA. DNI Clapper to NSA Director Rogers: “That’s OUR story, and we’re stickin’ to it”By the time the ICA is released , NSA gives it moderate confidence while CIA, FBI and ODNI give it high confidence The ICA was a product of the 4 three letter agencies, they went ahead to lie that all 17 Intelligence Community Agencies agreed with the ICA. https://nypost.com/2025/08/13/opinion/obama-aides-admit-russiagate-was-a-smear-campaign-against-trump/ To make it worse the resultant ICA is circulated to over 250 people , increasing the chances of it being leaked . The leading figures in the Russia Hoax have spent years deceiving the American public by presenting their manufactured and politicized assessments as credible intelligence. The email released today reinforces what we already exposed: the decision to compromise standards and violate protocols in the creation of the 2017 manufactured intelligence assessment was deliberate and came from the very top,” said DNI Gabbard. “Clapper’s own words confirm that complying with the order to manufacture intelligence was a ‘team sport.’” So far todate It all started with Clinton emails. Sally Yates wanted the investigation stopped So they stopped it and accused Trump of being Putin puppet. They spied on him but he won. They used the Russia collusion to hamstring him , Schiff told his staff the leaks were meant to be used to indict Trump . That's part one of "The plot against the President" |

Melania Trump threatened to sue Hunter Biden for defamation after he said Epstein introduced her to Trump based on the report of Wolf, who interviewed Epstein. Pro Tip: It's probably not a good idea to threaten someone with a Yale Law Degree who likes to take risks like smoking crack. Kinda stupid thing for Melania to do. The lawsuit will most certainly not go forward as Trump and Melania would have to testify under oath in a deposition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fs9v0sdZixs |

IjeBos:So I can defame you that you are a terrorist sympathiser . When you sue me, you have to do a deposition. I should be the one to testify under oath to prove my claims. If I depose you and you lie , that is a crime that can see you jailed. I think your brain works in reverse gear. It's not the same as me defaming you that you conned me if I have receipts , you might have to testify. .This one is Hunter parroting what someone said, he should get to prove his point or withdraw not fir Melania to prove he lied. Yours is the most foolish reasoning I have ever come across. |

Now we have conservatives and Kennedy the brain worms guy saying vaccines aren't necessary. If you survived early childhood and didn’t end up with any deformities such as those caused by small pox and polio, why are you willing to risk your kids’ lives and futures to satisfy your party propaganda? Surely you can’t love Trump and the conservative agenda more than your own children?

The cost of the plantains I've been buying is a good measure of inflation. Last year I could buy them for 3/$1(green or ripe) at my local Shaws. The raised them to 2/$1. At the local international market they were selling them for 5/$1 for the green ones. So, I started buying them from there. I would buy 2 dozen every 2 weeks or so for my mom so there are always some in various stages of ripeness for dish she makes. They increased them to 4/$1 in Feb. Two weeks ago they increased them to 3/$1 This week they were now 2/$1. The local Shaws used to be 75c for one. Will check what they are when I go shopping this week. I guess it doesn't affect all the "manly" men in this thread because they only eat meat anyways. #

Marjorie Taylor Greene finding out that the men in her party genuinely do not want her to be able to vote and seeing the panic on her face when they’re in session or on twitter is INSANE to witness. It's the lack of foresight for me. Helping oppress other groups just makes it easier for the powers that be to oppress them later on. |

Now they’ll be too “manly” to care about the cost of food. But when they were being insanely disingenuous before the election, the cost of eggs was all they cared about. IjeBos: |
