I'm woefully in the dark on such things, but the Department of Commerce should have an army of intelligence operatives bigger than the CIA whose sole job is to evaluate supply chain resiliency.

Interest rates go up, lender stocks go down. This is hardly an indictment of the Biden recovery.

But he’s the President and as he himself said, the buck stops with him. Didn’t matter that Democrats Chris Dodd and Barney Frank help to revise loan rules to help people obtain loans at low interest rates, loans people couldn’t pay back and ultimately the housing market and the economy tanked, who got the blame, Bush, and why, because the buck stopped with him because he was President. So yes, it’s an indictment on Biden.

Well, now convince the nation otherwise. This is the problem of the left that they just don’t seem to get being once again out of touch.

Inflation is transitory. It's not going to keep going up and up forever unless we get another set of unpaid for Trump Tax Cuts. Also proof of mortgage payment crisis 404 not found.
