U.S. TREASURY TARGETS FEDERAL RESERVE IN UNPRECEDENTED INVESTIGATION

THE FEAR MACHINE: FEDERAL RESERVE PANIC PEDDLING In a televised broadside delivered July 21 on CNBC, Bessent didn’t mince words. “We need to examine the entire Federal Reserve institution and whether they have been successful,” he stated—an accusation that, in DC-speak, is tantamount to declaring war. His primary charge? That the Fed is manufacturing hysteria over tariffs to manipulate public perception and stifle policy reforms they don't like. But look deeper. What Bessent is doing—whether the media dare admit it or not—is calling out the Fed’s long-standing pattern of weaponizing confidence theater. These unelected central planners use economic jargon and PhD mysticism to blindfold the public. They simulate neutrality, but their decisions reliably align with elite financial interests while working families bleed out paycheck by paycheck. He asks the right question: “All these PhDs over there, I don’t know what they do.” We do. They protect the banking class. TRUMP’S PRESSURE COOKER: THE GLOVES COME OFF Enter Donald Trump, stage right, with a Molotov in each hand. Trump has long distrusted Jerome Powell, the Fed’s chair, accusing him of economic sabotage via interest rate hikes that strangle domestic growth. And now, with a $2.5 billion Fed headquarters renovation under way—Trump’s turning up the heat, suggesting there’s a rotting carcass of corruption behind the marble façade. Powell’s defense? “Asbestos.” Building safety. Standard bureaucratic justifications. But here's the rub: any institution that can conjure money out of thin air—then lecture Congress on fiscal responsibility—shouldn't be spending billions to renovate its ivory tower while inflation eats the grocery aisle alive. The average American family doesn't care about structural beams and insulation. They care that the same institution setting their mortgage rate is secretly spending billions with no oversight. HISTORICAL CONTEXT: THE MONSTER WAS BORN IN 1913 Let’s not pretend this is new. The Fed was born from the backroom dealings of Jekyll Island in 1910, birthed into law in 1913 with the Federal Reserve Act—signed by Woodrow Wilson, who later admitted he had unwittingly “ruined” his country. Since then, the Fed has operated like an aristocracy of central planners—private bankers cloaked in public authority. It has presided over the destruction of the gold standard, the inflationary confiscation of savings, the 2008 financial meltdown, and now, the slow exsanguination of the middle class under the false banner of “full employment and price stability.” Let’s be clear: the Fed doesn’t control inflation. It causes it. It doesn’t stabilize the economy. It metastasizes imbalances to protect leveraged banks. THE MODERN CARNAGE: TAR AND FEATHERS DISGUISED AS POLICY Powell recently warned that tariffs could “weigh on economic activity” and ignite inflation—but claimed it would likely be “short-lived.” A lie of omission. Because the real driver of inflation is the $9 trillion balance sheet the Fed quietly amassed through quantitative easing—buying toxic assets to bail out their banker allies while average Americans got pink slips and foreclosure notices. Tariffs, at worst, reprice goods. Money printing devalues all goods—permanently. Let’s not conflate the two. And while consumers continue to drown in higher prices, the University of Michigan reports public sentiment still in the red. But the Fed isn’t concerned. Their job security is locked in by statute. Their bonuses are unaffected. Their legacy media allies will never hold them accountable. COUNTERARGUMENTS DEBUNKED: “INDEPENDENCE” ISN’T HOLY Apologists for the Fed will cry foul: “We need an independent central bank to avoid political interference.” Nonsense. Independence is meaningless without accountability. And since the Fed prints its own budget and operates behind closed doors, it has more insulation than the Vatican and less oversight than your local dog catcher. Another common myth: “The Fed stabilized the economy.” Really? Between 1913 and today, we've had the Great Depression, stagflation in the '70s, the dot-com bust, the 2008 collapse, and now the slow-burn implosion of purchasing power. That’s their “success”? WHAT’S REALLY AT STAKE: SOVEREIGNTY VS. CENTRAL CONTROL This audit talk is more than a political stunt. It’s a fight over who governs America’s future: the people, through their elected officials—or the unelected Fed board, armed with mathematical models and godlike authority over money. The reason central bankers fear audits is simple: exposure. Their policy failures would be documented. Their conflicts of interest laid bare. Their theoretical models discredited. They want you distracted with side shows—celebrity trials, partisan bickering, and sports politics—while they engineer the true levers of control: interest rates, money supply, credit conditions, and bailouts for the rich. FINAL VERDICT: SLAYING THE CENTRAL BEAST Bessent has opened a door. Whether it becomes a reckoning or just another Washington sideshow depends on how far the American people are willing to push. The Fed is not too big to fail. It is too dangerous to ignore. Its power is not natural law—it is statutory fiction. And statutes can be repealed. If this momentum builds—if the full audit proceeds—we won’t just be peeking under the hood. We’ll be dismantling a century-old engine of financial deception.
