Krasnov Is Setting Us Up For Another Financial Disaster.
Krasnov is working very hard to destroy the independence of the Fed. His ability to fire Lisa Cook will be ruled on this January by the Supreme Court. His attempts to fire Jerome Powell, his attempts to force Powell to gash interest rates are all designed to destroy the independence of the Fed.
Another point to keep in mind, the Fed does more than set interest rates, it regulates banks and what regulations that are still on banks, Krasnov wants them removed.
Krasnov is considering replacing Jerome Powell with Kevin Hassett, od dear, another crony.
These fuckers memories must be pretty bad, 2008 wasn't that long ago.
Oh yeah, and then there is the Crypto bubble.
Putin is smiling.
