  • Statement on the Federal Reserve

    The Federal ReserverCOs independence and the publicrCOs perception of that independence are critical for economic performance, including achieving
    the goals Congress has set for the Federal Reserve of stable prices,
    maximum employment, and moderate long-term interest rates. The reported criminal inquiry into Federal Reserve Chair Jay Powell is an
    unprecedented attempt to use prosecutorial attacks to undermine that independence. This is how monetary policy is made in emerging markets
    with weak institutions, with highly negative consequences for inflation
    and the functioning of their economies more broadly. It has no place in
    the United States whose greatest strength is the rule of law, which is
    at the foundation of our economic success.

    Notice how that statement about the 'rule of law' didn't mention
    preserving freedom? The Fed doesnrCOt even attempt to hide its ability to
    do deeprCastate surveillance anymore...

    No mention of Pizzagate either. We all know what THAT means.
