30 year treasuries skyrocketing this morning surpassingthe 4.5% mark. Mortgage Rates expected to increase this morning when they open. What’s going on? Rates are expected to increase until the 2024 election.

Inflation rates are soaring like never in history. Mortgage Rates are at 25 year highs. Mortgage rates we 2.5% 18 months ago and today is 7.625% for prime borrowers. Borrowers with sub 680 credit scores are paying 7.75% plus 3.5% in discount points. Home prices are at historic highs. Many would be homebuyers are priced out of the housing market. The mortgage industry lost 50,000 licensed mortgage loan originators from 140,000 to 90,000 and is expected to see more loan officers leave the mortgage industry. Every thing is going up. Car prices have skyrocketed and continues to go higher. Homeowners insurance premiums are increasing like never before. Joe Biden makes a speech a few days ago saying that Inflation is low under his watch. What is this guy thinking?

It was a pleasure speaking with Kelce Rock, a residential, business, and commercial loan officer with his own team and extensive experience in commercial and business loan originator. Mr. Kelce Rock truly goes above and beyond for his clients and I have absolutely no doubt Kelce will make a phenomenal state senator and future member of U.S. Congress where he will make a difference. We need politicians who serve American Families and not dumbocrats like Imbecile Biden and Sex and Crack Addict Hunter Biden who enrich themselves and are known pedophiles. Dumbass Hunter Crackhead Biden has absolutely no morals and even goes and marries his dead brother’s wife. What a pig.

Inflation refers to the general increase in prices of goods and services in an economy over a period of time, leading to a decrease in the purchasing power of money. When inflation occurs, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services than it did before. It is usually expressed as an annual percentage rate.
Inflation can be caused by various factors, but some common drivers include:
-
Demand-Pull Inflation: This occurs when the overall demand for goods and services exceeds the available supply. When demand outstrips supply, prices tend to rise.
-
Cost-Push Inflation: This type of inflation is caused by an increase in the production costs for businesses, such as rising labor costs or raw material prices. As businesses pass these increased costs onto consumers, it leads to higher prices.
-
Built-in Inflation: This is also known as wage-price inflation and occurs when businesses raise prices to compensate for increased labor costs, and workers, in turn, demand higher wages to keep up with the rising prices.
-
Monetary Factors: The money supply in an economy can also influence inflation. If the central bank prints more money without a corresponding increase in economic output, it can lead to too much money chasing too few goods, causing inflation.
Inflation is typically measured using various price indices, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) or the Producer Price Index (PPI), which track changes in the prices of a representative basket of goods and services.
Some level of inflation is generally considered normal and even desirable in modern economies. A moderate and stable inflation rate can encourage spending and investment and can help avoid deflation, which is a persistent decrease in prices that can be damaging to economic growth.
Central banks and governments often aim to keep inflation at a target rate (usually around 2% in many advanced economies) through monetary and fiscal policies. However, when inflation becomes too high or too volatile, it can erode the value of savings, disrupt financial planning, and create economic instability. Conversely, low or negative inflation can also have adverse effects on the economy, such as encouraging hoarding and deferring spending. Striking the right balance is essential for maintaining a healthy and sustainable economy.

What is the current state of our economy? Has Bidenomics helped our economy like Kamala Harris keeps on saying? Did the United States have a soft landing like Janet Yellen and Jerome Powell said? Democrats are saying we dodged a bullet because of the Biden Administration. The unemployment numbers came in at 4.2%. Are the unemployment numbers real or not accurate? Inflation numbers are at 3% but that number is not correct if you shop for goods and services. Mortgage rates went from 2.5% in 2019 to 7.5%. How did the sudden 400% jump in rates affect the economy? How is the 100% plus increase in home values affecting our economy? How is unemployment numbers at 4.2% is not reflective to actual Americans out of work?

The automotive market is collapsing. Consumers are having a very difficult time making the minimum monthly car payment. Repossession numbers of cars are skyrocketing. Inventory of new cars is stockpiling to historic levels. One in five consumers is getting denied car loans. Nobody is buying pickup trucks, SUVs, and higher-priced vehicles. Car interest rates are 7% to over 10%, depending on your credit score. And Kamala Harris is saying that Joe Biden fixed our economy? Did Bidenomics work, and will she continue? What a liar. The economy sucks. There is an economic collapse coming our way. A huge recession will come in the coming months: housing, car, and stock market crash.
-
What is Bidenomics? Is Bidenomics a real thing? The U.S. economy is in crisis. Inflation is soaring. Mortgage rates have tripled from its low a few years ago from 2.5% to 7.5%. Home prices have doubled in many parts of the country and its not if we are going to have a housing bubble but when. Unemployment numbers came out last Friday and just skyrocketed from 3.2% to 4.3%. Many people cannot keep up with inflation. The economic data and numbers being released are lies. The inflation rate is NOT 3%. Look at the prices of goods and services when you go shopping. Most consumers see prices of goods and services are 100% to 500% higher than what it used to be. NOT 3% to 4%. Look around you. Look at how many people are out of work. Again, LIES, LIES, LIES. 4.3%? I don’t think so. The Dow Jones Industrial Average should NOT be at 40,000. The Federal Reserve Board is printing money like it is going out of style. Is Kamala Harris that much of an IDIOT? I think so. Kamala Harris is going around touting and bragging about Bidenomics and that Bidenomics is here to stay. Joe Biden is going around bragging that he made the economy of the United States through Biden Economics. So what is Bidenomics and what makes Biden Economics so GREAT? What is the difference between Reaganomics and Bidenomics? Why is the least popular politicians, Kamala Harris, going around and running on Bidenomics and how great Joe Biden was as President of the United States. Does Harris realize that Joe Biden stands to be the worst President in the History of the United States, making him worse than Jimmy Carter? So, can you please explain in detail what Bidenomics is so we, the American people, can understand?
-
Whatever the Biden Administration and the mainstream media network is telling you how great Bidenomics is and how great the economy is, that’s a lie. Home Depot is facing a decline in revenues year over year. McDonald’s is struggling. The construction industry is struggling. Home prices are plummeting. Inflation is not at 3%. It’s more like 100%. Stay tuned.

Peter Schiff, the economist who predicted the 2008 housing market crash now predicts an 80% to 90% housing crash. Don’t underestimate Peter Schiff. Schiff has been spot on his housing and economic forecast for years. Government should not intervene on the open market. The FED printing money has a disastrous impact on the overall economy. Government control and guarantee railroads the housing and banking system where it disrupts the overall economic development system and the end result is a financial crisis. Homeowners who purchased homes are barely surviving and many cannot afford their housing expenses. Homes are getting reasseessed where property taxes are increasing 50% and more. Homeowners insurance is doubling in many areas. Many people cannot afford the maintenance in their homes where the end result will be a tear down. Bankruptcy and foreclosure numbers are skyrocketing at historic highs. Watch Peter Schiff’s commentary on the state of our economy.

Americans are perplexed when they hear the mainstream media network and politicians announce the economy is doing great and we just had a soft landing. Joe Biden and his cronies such as Jerome Powell, Janet Yellen, Joe Scarborough, Jim Cramer, Chuck Todd, and other Democrats and far left liberals say What Inflation? The Economy is doing GREAT. Look at the stock market how high it is under the Biden Administration. We just had a soft landing. Look at the unemployment numbers and how low it is. All of these clowns are just big fat liars. You don’t need fake economic data and numbers. Unemployment numbers is not 3%. Inflation numbers is not 3%. Go to your nearest grocery store and look at the cost of groceries. Go get your cat repaired and see how much it costs. Go to McDonald’s and see how much a burger, fries, and soda is ($25 dollars easy). How much does it cost to feed a family of four? How much does it cost to care for your dog or dogs? How much does it cost to buy a car? Whether you like it or not, Americans need to face reality and face the facts they are being lied to by Joe Biden and the far left liberals. The dollar is not backed by any hard assets. The Federal Reserve Board is a money printing machine controlled by the Deep State, The Rothschild Family, George Soros, and the Globalists. How can career politicians like Joe Biden, Barack Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and hundreds of politicians become multimillionaires without a real job or family inheritance. Impossible. Politicians and the deep state are stealing, lying, and printing money. They are not playing by the rules. Americans need to wake up and speak up. Americans need to voice their opinions and concerns. There’s no way we should have a commander in Chief of the United States of America who has stage six of dementia and has the nuclear code. Dementia Lying Cheating Joe Biden is a major liability for our country and is infested with corruption. We need to clean house. Expect a major stock market crash in the coming days, weeks, months. Expect a major real estate crash in the coming short term. The stock market and housing markets will plummet 50% to 90% or more. Expect a financial crisis worse than the 2008 real estate and financial meltdown. We should be ready for this correction so in two to three years we will have everything fixed under the leadership of President Donald Trump. The Federal Reserve Board will be destroyed and we will have a new monetary system backed by silver and Gold. We need to get Dementia Joe Biden and his cronies out of the White House and stop power hunger Jill Biden running the Executive Branch.

There is no doubt that Joe Biden is the worst President of the United States and one of the dumbest, if not the dumbest, human being ever to head the Oval Office. I can give you an overview of some of the economic policies and initiatives that were in place during the Biden administration up to my last update.
When Joe Biden took office as the 46th President of the United States in January 2021, he faced significant economic challenges, primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic’s ongoing impact on the economy. His administration’s economic agenda aimed to address the public health crisis and support economic recovery.
Some key points of the Biden administration’s economic policies up to September 2021 included:
-
COVID-19 Response: Biden prioritized a comprehensive approach to combat the pandemic, including mass vaccination campaigns, expanded testing, and providing financial aid to individuals and businesses affected by the pandemic.
-
American Rescue Plan Act: In March 2021, the administration passed the American Rescue Plan Act, a $1.9 trillion economic relief package. This legislation included direct payments to individuals, extended unemployment benefits, aid to state and local governments, funds for COVID-19 vaccine distribution, and support for small businesses.
-
Infrastructure and Jobs Plan: Biden proposed an infrastructure plan that aimed to invest heavily in infrastructure projects, such as transportation, broadband, and clean energy. The proposed plan also sought to create jobs and boost economic growth.
-
Tax Policy: The Biden administration proposed raising taxes on corporations and high-income individuals to fund various social programs and infrastructure investments. The goal was to address income inequality and generate revenue to support government initiatives.
It’s essential to remember that the economy’s performance is influenced by various factors, including global economic conditions, geopolitical events, and other policy changes. Therefore, I recommend checking more recent sources to obtain an up-to-date and comprehensive assessment of the Biden economy as of August 2023.

What is the role of the Federal Reserve Board? Who controls the Federal Reserve Board? Is the Federal Reserve Board a legitimate organization? Can the Federal Reserve Board print money? Does the Federal Reserve Board gift money to the elites? Why does the Fed Chairman Jerome Powell lie in front of national television about inflation and our bad economy?
-
Last week FED CHAIRMAN Jerome Powell announced interest rates will not be cut this year because the economy is in pace on recovering. Inflation has dropped but it’s slightly higher than the 2.0% target. Inflation is at 3% and unemployment rate is at 4 25% which means the economy in the United States 🇺🇸 remains strong. Jerome Powell keeps on lying on national television. The same is true with Joe Biden, Janet Yellen, and hundreds of Democrats on national television. Joe Biden is busy traveling the United States 🇺🇸 campaigning he is the Navy Seal of Fighting Inflation with his Bidenomics. Dementia Lying Cheating Joe Biden aggressively is lying that he took Inflation from 9% when he took office to under 3.0%. All of these clowns are just a joke. Have they not seen prices of goods and services? Ridiculously outrageous. Mortgage loan applications are the lowest in 30 plus years. These numb nuts are destroying America. We need competent politicians and not politicians who never held a job and have been leaching off taxyers for the past 60 years.

What is our current state of our economy. Here’s what the two sides of our state of economy:
Democrats:
What inflation? What unemployment? What do you mean recession? Economy is great. Look at the Dow Jones Industrial Average which is at all time high. Rates are great. Home prices are up and that’s a good sign.
Republicans: Skyrocketing inflation, surging home prices, all time high rates, economy is bad and getting worse. FEDS are printing money and our economy is going down the shitter

Many of you heard the term Soft Landing in our economy. Most consumers never literally lived through a horrific downturn of the U.S. economy as the economic turmoil we are going through now. Our economy today is worse than the 2008 financial, credit, and real estate crisis of 2008 by a long shit. The financial and real estate meltdown of 2008 is a thunderstorm compared to today’s Category FOUR HURRICANE comparison in our economy. However, the biggest liars such as Jim Kramer of CNBC, Joe Biden, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, and Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell is all telling us that inflation is in check and we had a soft landing and the economy is just fine. These incompetent liars are absolutely clueless and all they are great at is printing money. Inflation, housing, job, CPI, and other economic numbers are all a lie and we are not even close for our economy that is in turmoil to have a soft landing. Remember this year is an election year and the nasty incompetent politicians need to get reelected so they can follow in Joe Biden’s footsteps in being a tenured career politician being an incompetent politician for over 50 years without having one single job in the private sector.

Evey consumer in America know that prices of goods and services are out of control and inflation is not minutely close to what the fake NEWS MEDIA is reporting.

The United States government confiscated gold and silver during certain periods in its history for various reasons, but the most notable event regarding gold confiscation was during the Great Depression in 1933.
In response to the economic turmoil of the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 6102 on April 5, 1933. This order effectively prohibited the hoarding of gold coins, gold bullion, and gold certificates within the continental United States. Individuals were required to turn in their gold to the Federal Reserve in exchange for paper currency. The government set the price of gold at $20.67 per ounce and subsequently raised it to $35 per ounce, effectively devaluing the dollar against gold.
The rationale behind this action was to stabilize the economy and increase the government’s ability to manipulate monetary policy. By removing gold from circulation and pegging the value of the dollar to gold, the government sought to combat deflation and stimulate economic recovery.
As for silver, there wasn’t a widespread confiscation like with gold. However, the U.S. government did enact legislation in the 1930s that significantly reduced the amount of silver in circulation. The Silver Purchase Act of 1934 authorized the U.S. Treasury to buy silver bullion to increase the price of silver, which had been in a downward spiral. This act effectively removed large quantities of silver from circulation as it was melted down into bars and stored in government vaults. Later, during World War II, there were further restrictions on the use of silver due to its strategic importance for the war effort.
In summary, the confiscation of gold and reduction of silver in circulation during the Great Depression era were measures taken by the U.S. government to stabilize the economy, manage monetary policy, and combat the effects of the economic downturn.
Gold and silver confiscation typically refers to government actions where authorities demand citizens turn in their gold and/or silver holdings. The most notable historical instance of this was in the United States during the 1930s. Here are some of the main reasons why such confiscations have occurred:
-
Economic Stability: Governments may confiscate gold and silver to stabilize the economy during times of crisis. For example, during the Great Depression in the 1930s, the US government feared hoarding of gold was exacerbating deflationary pressures, so it sought to increase the money supply and gain control over monetary policy.
-
Currency Stability: Gold and silver have historically been used as forms of currency or backing for currency. Confiscation may occur when governments want to maintain control over their currency and prevent alternatives from competing with or undermining it.
-
War Financing: During times of war, governments may confiscate precious metals to finance military efforts. By forcing citizens to exchange their gold and silver for currency or government bonds, authorities can raise funds to support war efforts.
-
Control Over Monetary Policy: Governments may confiscate gold and silver to have greater control over monetary policy. By centralizing gold reserves, authorities can influence the money supply, interest rates, and inflation levels.
-
Political Control: Confiscation can also be a tool for governments to exert political control over their citizens. By seizing assets such as gold and silver, authorities may limit the economic independence of individuals or groups deemed as threats to the government’s authority.
-
Crisis Management: During financial crises or periods of economic uncertainty, governments may resort to confiscation as a means of crisis management. By consolidating precious metal reserves, authorities may attempt to stabilize markets and restore investor confidence.
It’s important to note that while gold confiscation by governments has occurred historically, it’s relatively rare and often met with controversy and resistance. Additionally, laws and regulations regarding the ownership and trading of gold and silver vary from country to country, and confiscation is not a universal practice.

Federal Reserve Board Chairman Jerome Powell gets grilled by Louisiana Senator John Kennedy and seems like his asshole is puckering. Jerome Powell gets owned and called out by the Louisiana U.S. Senator and becomes speechless sometimes during the grilling session. Incompetence and lying is not being condoned by Senator Kennedy.

Seems like everyone is an expert in the media where they say that mortgage rates are still low. Jim Kramer of CNN is the biggest liar and bullshitter who has great talent. Jim Krammer talent is lying with a straight face on national television on how great the economy is, how inflation is under control, and how mortgage rates are still low compared to 1980. All of these liberal clowns need to shut down their clownshow and get off the air. What are your thoughts of mortgage rates forecast in the coming months through 2025? What are your thoughts of inflation, the housing market, the stock market, the dollar, unemployment, and investment opportunities?
