Trump and his allies are crying “election interference” over the Federal Reserve’s decision to slash interest rates
After months of complaining about the crippling burden of high interest rates and expensive borrowing, Republicans for some strange reason don’t seem too happy that the Federal Reserve has moved to do something about it.
On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced it is cutting interest rates by half a percentage point. It’s the first cut since 2020 and a long-awaited decrease to historically high interest rates.

You’re really reaching here. While the insurrection was undeniably horrific and the actions of that day despicable, no one was murdered. Trying to equate someone’s preexisting medical condition exacerbated by stress to “murder” is a wild leap. By this logic, every football player who dies of a genetic heart issue after exertion was “murdered” by the other players. The real issue isn’t inventing a murder where none exists—it’s that a mob stormed the Capitol, attempted to lynch the Vice President, and disrupt the democratic process. Your mental gymnastics to redefine the facts only distract from the gravity of what actually happened.
If your committing a felony and someone dies from the unintended consequences of that felony you can be charged with murder.
It’s called the “felony murder rule” and people have been sentenced to death based on it.
