Episode Details

Ten state treasurers and one state auditor just pulled the alarm on America's economic future, and their message is simple: Congress, do your job.

In a fiery open letter, the financial watchdogs warned that the U.S. is teetering on economic collapse—and they’re pointing fingers at the Trump administration’s trade wars, rising borrowing costs, and threats to the Federal Reserve’s independence.

The data is chilling: A $6.6 trillion stock market loss in just two days, the dollar hit a three-year low, and consumer confidence has crashed to near-Great Recession levels.

The twist—they’re not just blaming Trump. They’re calling out Congress for sitting on its hands. The Constitution gives Congress power over trade, tariffs, and economic policy—not the White House.

The message is clear—this isn’t about red or blue. It’s about governance—and the credibility of the United States is on the line.
