Love Trump calling Howell stupid. Trump might look at himself. Not only stupid but a felon, breaks the Constitution daily, loves a fascist leader in Russia and hates Zelenski a great leader and humble man. Look at what the idiot is doing to Canada. Then we can remember American electorate put him there twice . Stupid?
This stack highlights a critical tension between political influence and institutional independence. The Federal Reserve’s autonomy is foundational to global trust in the U.S. dollar. We seem to take that for granted rather often than days. Undermining that autonomy and trust — even rhetorically — risks unsettling not just domestic markets, but international confidence in the stability of U.S. fiscal stewardship. It now is appearing in the data. Regardless of political views, the perception that monetary policy could or should be swayed by electoral motives is one more reason to support mechanisms for protecting this type of influence as global investors and central banks particularly stand to change the landscape under our feet.
We need to overhaul the system to strengthen the checks and balances that are failing. Properly designed constitutional reform continues to be the only true initial solution for sustainable positive societal progress.
