The Fed's blackout period isn't silencing Powell - it's shielding Trump. While "elephants" loom, the admin already unleashed stampedes: private firing plots (July 16) & tariff timebombs (July X deadline passed) trample Fed independence. Powell's real dilemma? How to warn about economic arsonists without burning his chair.

Trump's July XX Oval Office admission he discussed firing Powell - after House Republicans "almost all" endorsed it - exposes the real monetary policy: loyalty tests. This follows June Truth Social rants calling Powell a "moron" for maintaining XXXX% rates (still below 2006 peaks). Vought's bogus renovation accusations (July XX letter) mirror 2020's IG purges - standard playbook for neutering oversight. Meanwhile, Powell's June XX warning that tariffs "push up prices" went unheeded as Trump expanded levies, ignoring 2018's $500B consumer costs. The World Bank's June XX global growth cut confirms this recklessness.

When politicians cage central bankers, the economy becomes the trapped animal.
