Moan. This is the country’s hangover after yesterday’s champagne.

Peter, is there something Trump can unilaterally and immediately do to forestall damage? Something with halting all payments to illegal immigrants, or to government agencies, or manipulation of crypto currencies, or ? I’m sure hoping he has more tricks up his sleeve!

Everything Trump does comes under the heading of "extraordinary measure" that Yellen has said the Treasury Department is already doing.

However, the President has no authority to cancel any obligation the government has. If a payment is due, a payment needs to be made....eventually. Altering that requires an act of Congress.

But all of that merely impedes the implementation of Agenda 47.

Congress should have listened to him when he asked for the debt ceiling to be dealt with last month.

And the money laundering masters in Ukraine, and the Big Pharma donor masters here in the US.

The key to understanding corruption is recognizing that it is remarkably apolitical. As long as the bribes..."campaign contributions" are paid, our elected representatives by and large do not care where the contributors reside, or what their political agenda might be.
