LOL at JrJr Pulte saying he's been in construction his whole life. Dude has probably lifted a hammer less times than my wife.

And the idea that he would know quality........pfft. Am I the only person that's seen a Pulte Homes neighborhood? It ain't exactly The Eccles Building.

So, I am glad you brought this post up.

Cowboys Stadium was built in 2009. FRB renovations started in late 2021 or early 2022, but this wasn't an issue until this year 2025. So, that is 16 years later.

The cost-of-living in Washington, DC is 42% higher that Dallas in 2025.

Then we look at what $1.3M in 2009 would equate to in 2025 and that is $1.95M.

So, this guy is full of shat and you are too for posting something that appears as fact on the surface and then makes an illogical conclusion.
Lol!!! This is an office building for numbers counters and their office should never come anywhere near the cost of an nfl football stadium. The Fed banks are autonomous and quasi private at the least so why should taxpayers foot the bill for build them a new office? Increase in inflation is irrelevant here imo. End the FED!!! 1913 was a year of very bad fraud perpetuated on America imo.

🚨 JUST IN: The group suing Fed Chair Jerome Powell just formally demanded he RELEASE THE TRANSCRIPT of yesterday's closed-door meeting where they dubiously refused to cut interest rates.


RELEASE IT.


"For the first time in 32 years, two sitting members of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors publicly dissented from the sitting Fed Chair by voting against Powell and voting for an immediate rate cut. This unprecedented dissent was brushed aside by Fed Chair Powell. At Wednesday’s press conference, Powell was asked directly why two of his own board members voted against him. He refused to answer." - @J_Fishback, Azoria


"The American public has been left in the dark, and the only remedy is full transparency."


The Fed is currently disgracing the country and costing us hundreds of billions.


"Sunlight is the best disinfectant."

Integrity... as in not working at cross purposes to your boss or organizational goals. Resign if you must but if not, just pull on your oar in time with everyone else who is rowing the boat.

Current picks and administration movers and shakers are loyal and the admin is moving things forward n line with what Trump had campaigned on.

He made better picks.
Really? Better than Steve Bannon? Shocked. He could have picked random citizens and done better than his first round. The idea that he’s trying g to fire multiple people he put in office already on round 2 gives me high confidence this time.

Just more bullshat from Pulte. He's trying to get in good graces with Trump.

Housing official Bill Pulte fired ethics workers who were looking into his ally​

The actions have also sowed uncertainty and undermined confidence in Pulte across the mortgage industry.

"President Donald Trump’s firebrand housing finance director, Bill Pulte, fired internal watchdogs at Fannie Mae who were looking into multiple complaints against a high-ranking company officer close to him, according to people familiar with the matter.

Pulte said last month he had fired dozens of Fannie Mae employees in what he said included a bid to end diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives at the mortgage giant. Yet six people familiar with the matter said those firings effectively cleared out the company’s internal watchdogs, charged with ensuring Fannie and its officials follow the law. The ethics team — including its chief, Suzanne Libby — was fired shortly after Fannie management directed investigators to cease looking into the Pulte ally, said a couple of the people familiar with the situation.

Other top Fannie officials were also terminated amid broader clashes with Pulte, the people said, including general counsel Danielle McCoy and head of single-family business Malloy Evans. Some of the terminations were first reported by the Wall Street Journal."

🚨 HOLY CRAP! President Trump just dropped a NUKE on the entire Federal Reserve and every Democrat who thought they were safely installed

He revealed that Jerome Powell’s reappointment — AND multiple other Democrat commissioners — might be INVALID because they were signed by the Biden autopen, not Biden himself

If true this blows the doors off everything. These appointments could be NULLIFIED.

And who’s on the case?
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the new wrecking ball in Washington.

Trump laid it out with that classic smirk

“All 4 Democrat commissioners… I hear the autopen may have signed those commissions. Maybe I’m wrong. But we’re gonna check!”

Then he turns to Bessent in front of thousands

“Would you check that, Scott, OK? I’m hearing the autopen signed maybe all 4. But we’ll take 2!”

If this pans out it will be one of the biggest institutional shakeups in American history. Trump isn’t just cleaning house he’s burning down the rotten foundation.

===

It is Correct that the Biden Administration’s use of the AutoPen is Unconstitutional.

And yes, this includes ALL Presidential Appointments which were signed by the AutoPen.

As I’ve been posting about for more than 9 months now.

Here is the exact reason why:

For All Bills passed by Congress, using the AutoPen “signature” is Unconstitutional.

This is NOT in Question.

Constitutionally, the Bill MUST BE Presented to the President for him to then sign.

The President’s Presence with the Document is REQUIRED.

For other legal documents, such as Presidential Pardons, Executive Orders & Presidential Proclamations - those documents have the SAME Constitutional Requirements, since they carry the SAME Force of Law.

Like I’ve previously explained numerous times before.

It’s the President’s actual, Real Signature, by his own hand,

Which PROVES his Presence with the Document - And his acceptance & approval of the Document, which carries [Force of Law].

Legally, ONLY the President can Approve these Documents to give them Force of Law. And he approves them, by signing the Documents in his OWN HAND.

NO ONE ELSE CAN DO IT.

Only POTUS can do it. The Executive Power of the United States is VESTED in THE EXECUTIVE.

PERIOD.

This is NOT in Question.

Without the President’s actual signature in his own hand, the Document is NULL, VOID, INVALID, MOOT.

It’s that simple.

WTF?: Dept of Justice files charges against the Fed and Fed Chairman Powell?

Yay: it’s about time.

Trump bombed Venezuela and captured Maduro.

Trump now bombs the Fed and captured Fed Chairman Powell

Will Trump end the Fed?

WHY NOT?

The Fed is Marixist because it is Centralized Bank.

The creation of the Fed in 1913 and brought with it the 16th Ammendment…. a.k.a. Income tax

Up until the creation of the Fed America was a tax free nation.

America was founded on a tax revolt known as the Boston Tea Party in 1773.

Then came the Fed in 1913

And as you know Marx said “ A graduated income tax is essential to the spread of Communism.”

God Bless Donald Trump for taking out Narco-terrorist Maduro of Venezuela, and now Criminal Counterfeiter Fed Chairman Powell.

Gold and silver rallied on the good news.

That's really hilarious, Pulte referring to Jerome Powell (or anyone else, for that matter) as being "now disgraced."

Stephen Miller to Cheeto: "I know! Let's put the kibosh on investigating Jonathan Ross. We can investigate Jerome Powell instead!"

Just the facts.



FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL IS IN HUGE TROUBLE 🚨

He's TRAPPED, here's why.

Just now, US CPI came in line with expectations at 2.7%, while Core CPI came in lower than expected at 2.6%.

This is the exact number that came during the last CPI print, which means CPI is not running hot.

And this could be a problem for Powell.

Powell has been holding rates because the Fed thinks inflation will go up.

But instead of that, CPI and Core CPI are moving towards the Fed's target.

Also, Truflation, which calculates CPI in real time, is showing that US inflation is now below 1.8%

This means the Fed is late in cutting rates, and this is a bad thing.

The economy is already in distress due to high rates, and the Fed is still pausing rate cuts despite low CPI print.

As we all know, the Fed did a 50BPS rate cut right before the 2024 election, even though the markets were expecting 25BPS.

Back then, Core CPI was at 3.3%, while the unemployment rate was at 4.1%.

Today, Core CPI is at 2.6%, and the unemployment rate has surged to 4.4%, but still the Fed is being hawkish.

And I think Trump administration knew about this CPI data and that's why they are going after Powell.

Powell can say anything he wants, but the reality is that the Fed is way behind its curve.

The market needs more rate cuts, and the Fed will have to deliver it in 2026.

Yes—and hear, hear. This quote from @SecScottBessent at yesterday’s hearing before the House Financial Services Committee:


“The independence of the Fed is based on its trust of the American people,” Mr. Bessent said. “The Federal Reserve lost the trust of the American people when it allowed the greatest inflation in 49 years to ravage — ravage — the working people of this country.”

“There is abundant evidence that the subpoenas’ dominant (if not sole) purpose is to harass and pressure Powell either to yield to the President or to resign and make way for a Fed Chair who will,” Chief U.S. District Judge James Boasberg wrote. “The Government has offered no evidence whatsoever that Powell committed any crime other than displeasing the President.”

View attachment 1217461

for once boasberg might be right. Even chair of the committee where Powell supposedly perjured himself has said...no perjury.

Trump should take this judge's ruling and drop the investigation. He can blame the judge's decision if he wants. In return he gets the new FED Chair and likely lower rates. Seem like an easy win-win...

But, somehow I have this feeling that won't be the case.

Powell has two months to go so absolutely no reason to pursue this other than to inflict pain. I don't ever want to hear about how Biden weaponized the government again. Trump said hold my beer.
