  • Lower interest rates

    From Joseph Pereira@1:124/5016 to All on Friday, January 09, 2026 07:11:17

    Trump says he's ordered "representatives" to buy $200 billion worth of mortgages to lower interest rates. Apparently, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are supposed to be those "representatives." White House spokespeople haven't commented on this. Trump may have simply made this up. I also wouldn't rule out the possibility that Trump thinks Fannie and Freddie Mac are two very wealthy friends of his.
