We can do something. If the way they are playing this is in anyway a violation of trust, there has to be something inappropriate that can be pinpointed pin pointed for an audit of the industry entirely. Elon musk can do it! @doge @POTUS

It’s also worth mentioning that stocks are rehypothicated and not delivered essentially like photocopying your car ownership and selling it multiple times.Did you know when a stock is delisted those positions don’t ever close ? They use those stocks as collateral. House of cards.

They hope it’ll be like last time they got bailed out. Not this time banks no more. They’ve been a fraud since their inception. They will go down

Thank you for sharing this and your hard work, when I plug it into Grok, it seems to verify all that you said, I asked it’s a summarize it so I am sharing it below. From their grock said you can follow it as deep as needed: ### Title: "Pension Funds at Risk: Money Manipulators Win Again" #### X Post Summary (280 characters or less): PE manipulates debt, cashes out via tax loopholes, and leaves pension funds holding risky CLOs. Rates rise, defaults hit, and taxpayers may bail out pensions—not banks—while Wall Street dodges the fall like 2008. (Characters: 218) #### Deeper Explanation: The “money manipulators” here are private equity (PE) firms, echoing the Wall Street playbook from the 2008 banking collapse. They use floating rate loans—tied to SOFR (5% in 2025)—to fund buyouts like Joann’s $1.6 billion deal, piling on debt ($1 billion-plus for Joann). The carried interest loophole lets them tax their 20% profit share at 23.8% instead of 37%, saving millions per deal and incentivizing risky leverage. They extract cash early—fees, dividends, or sales—then bail when rates spike and interest costs soar (Joann’s could’ve jumped $20-25 million yearly). Companies default, like Joann’s 2025 liquidation, and the pain hits CLOs ($1.29 trillion market). Pension funds, lured by CLO yields (6.5% on AAA tranches), hold this risk. Defaults (2.6% projected in 2025, per Moody’s) could climb, stressing lower tranches (BB, B) and even denting “safe” ones if markets panic. Banks might fail—we’d let them—but pension funds, tied to millions of retirees, are untouchable. A bailout’s likely, echoing 2008’s taxpayer rescue of banks, while PE walks away, loophole intact. X chatter flags this as “Wall Street’s encore”—not a repeat of mortgage CDOs but a new twist with CLOs and pensions. The manipulators win, and the public pays. More details?
