Easy to do because Zelensky’s native tongue is Russian and the accent the same in English.

Our people in charge are stoopid ideologues. We really can do much better.

“the Fed also just confirmed on Bloomberg Powell was victim of a prank call”

If true, he wasn’t so much a “victim” but rather a duped fool.

“Jerome” sounds like the name of a high-priced hair stylist.

Read video was from January
So one rate increase already happened
People are gullible for sensational headlines

Yeah, I'd rather turn the Fed over to Jerry Powell who owns the local bait and tackle shop - the insanity level would go way down. :)

Are we sure about this?

LaGarde at the ECB fell for this as well. The audio of it was played on the No Agenda Show for all to hear. She spilled the beans that October is when CBDCs will be implemented.

The Fed confirmed to Bloomberg today they were the victim of this hoax.

The video was just released, but the Fed claimed it occurred in January.

for what its worth, the trees behind Powell were green, similar to DC this week - but that likely could have been a green-screen

Does that mean that one of the two rate-hikes already happened, or not?
