Donald Trump’s Treasury Nominee Made Big Bets this Year on Chinese Stocks and a Big Short on the U.S. Market By Pam Martens and Russ Martens:

 https://wallstreetonparade.com/2024/11/donald-trumps-treasury-nominee-made-big-bets-this-year-on-chinese-stocks-and-a-big-short-on-the-u-s-market/

We are being inundated by a firehose of utter corruption with the nominations of sexual predators, thieves and grifters out to steal our collective wealth and dismantle whatever remains of the safety net.  This is an example of Trump's intention to hand power to some rich sociopath.  Heaven help us.
