Biden Does NOT need a BILL to close the border
He only needs a PEN. Thats all he needed to open it.
Thats all he needed to close it. Thats all Trump needed.
Maybe this is just Proof Trump is better than Biden.

As it must!

Transparency was sorely missing during the opaque Obama administration!

The Federal Reserve has been opaque throughout its existence!

The Republicans haven't expended much energy in the past in trying to get the Fed audited.

Last year Rand Paul tried this, and here's what happened:

WASHINGTON — The Senate on Tuesday blocked legislation calling for tougher audits
of the Federal Reserve, rebuffing an attempt by Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul
to give lawmakers greater oversight of the central bank’s moves on interest rates.

The 53-44 vote fell short of the threshold to overcome a Democratic filibuster.
But the Kentucky Republican, who is seeking the GOP’s nomination for president,
was joined by independent Sen. Bernie Sanders, a White House hopeful
who occupies the opposite end of the political spectrum from Paul.

Sanders supported the legislation but approached it from a different perspective
than Republicans. He says the Fed was too quick to raise interest rates last month.

“Big bankers and their supporters in Congress have been telling us for years
that runaway inflation is just around the corner. They have been dead wrong each time,”
Sanders said in a recent op-ed in The New York Times.

“Raising interest rates now is a disaster for small business owners
who need loans to hire more workers and Americans who need more jobs and higher wages.”

Under current law, the Fed’s financial statements are audited annually
by an independent accounting firm and the GAO has authority to audit Fed actions
on bank supervision and regulation.

No reason to believe they''ll go for it now.

Kook admits Democrats oppose transparency at the Federal Reserve!

Why do Democrats oppose that?

Why the secrecy?

Thats absolutely amazing, but kook proves our point of why we are where we are.  He blames Republicans for not getting something done while pointing out Democrats fight them all the way.  They sit on your chest then blame you for not getting up.

but they never actually do them...

The question is why do Democrats vote against transparency at the Fed?

Why do Democrats vote against fixing Obamacare?

Because lack of transparency and Obamacare give Democrats near unlimited power over the American people!

President Trump's tax returns are not anyone's business and never have been!

No, as King Obama was and remains a communist party puppet!

President Trump is making Americans freer which is the opposite of what Putin and the Russians want!
