President Obama: the U.S. is a failed republic. An Authoritarian regime centered on White Christian Nationalism. Our society is now xenophobic, isolationist, racist, with an economy that is increasingly commanded by the regime. Trust, decency, and morality are supplanted by loyalty to the dictator.

Additionally, the anticipated FED interest rate cut only really impacts the federal funds rate target range, which is the interest rate banks charge each other for overnight loans. 10-Year Bond rate impacts ordinary people and is set by the bond market supply and demand.
