This is the sort of statement that was expected from every university president and law firm partner over the last year. That those statements weren’t made played a huge part in where we are now and people will remember.
Jerome Powell: "This is about whether the Fed will be able to continue to set interest rates based on evidence and economic conditions—or whether instead monetary policy will be directed by political pressure or intimidation."

Tillis is spot on. The Senate can't confirm a Trump toady to succeed Powell at the Fed. The rest of the game is now out in the open, and it doesn't end well.

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

This is precisely how you should respond to a bullshit investigation.
“This new threat is not about my testimony last June, or the renovation of the Federal Reserve Buildings… this is a consequence of not following the preference of the President”

The president of the United States is extorting the Federal Reserve Board Chairman by threatening criminal prosecution if he doesn't lower interest rates.
DOJ is compromised, legacy media is cowed and Big Law is AWOL. As I wrote last year: "We are on our own."

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.
