Well, this is a welcome development, but it feels a bit late into the game for it. During the campaign, they did actually warn of this, so they should have had a counterplay ready to go and safeguard the stability of the USA economy. Very costly mistake...

Unfortunately, the system is just unstable as all hell, to further elaborate. It's always on tenderhooks and ready to implode at any time, every 5-7 years the business cycle wrecks itself and it's became more common since the 90's.

Last crash was like dec 2019, so after the meltdown, it was shaky.

Bigger wobble now because for the past 4 of those years there was a huge transfer of money to the top and they're gambling it big while asset stripping the hell out of the state. Taking away from what was a bulwark against the sting. This crash is going to suck, it may not even be bedded in yet.

How about they move forward with impeachment and demands to bring people back from El Salvador and pass laws to ensure that this regime won't be flying US citizens over there without due process next? Then when he tries imposing martial law they can have him imprisoned like our S.Korean pals did.

A chance for Republicans to show us who they are.
