This isn’t oversight; it’s intimidation. Drag the Fed into criminal theater to bully rate cuts, and you import the playbook of weak states: politicized money, higher prices, capital flight. Strong economies defend independent institutions. Autocracies punish them. #RuleOfLaw #HandsOffTheFed
An assault on the Fed’s independence is an assault on democracy itself. To purge a governor without cause is not governance but autocracy in motion—an attempt to turn monetary policy into partisan weaponry. Institutions must hold. #HandsOffTheFed #DemocracyOnTheLine
Trump wants to fire the Fed Chair.

The Fed isn’t a loyalty program-it controls inflation.
It’s not choose your own interest rate.
This is not a game.

Trump’s calling for more rate cuts—again. Meanwhile, FOMC members are rallying to protect Powell’s independence. The Fed isn’t a campaign tool, and monetary policy shouldn’t be dictated by political pressure. #HandsOffTheFed #EconomicStability #PowellIndependence
