The markets had a little thrill ride today, as word of Trump's desire to fire and replace Fed Chair Jerome Powell roiled markets, sending stocks and the Dollar plunging, and gold and silver soaring.

But, as usual, Donnie quickly distanced himself from what he had been clearly engaged with, and things settled back down again.

The whole purpose of this exercise is to replace the mildly independent Powell with a chairman willing to be a one percent interest sycophant.

And, Trump added, he no longer desires to have the support from 'weaklings' who wish to have him fulfill the promise of revealing the material being withheld about l'affaire Epstein.

This is the kind of silliness, in addition to three-card monte scams and pyramid schemes that occupy our best and brightest.

And why we, unlike the rising titans of Asia, are not allowed to have nice things. Like infrastructure.

Option expiration on Friday.

People are starting to wake up. But those who believe will cling even more tightly to what they cherish and have pledged their souls to serve in this world.  

This is Bonhoeffer's principle of foolishness. And a biblical story, older than Babylon and marinated in madness.

A faithful light shines in the darkness. And the darkness has not overcome it. 

Have a pleasant evening.
