BREAKING POINT? How today’s bank crisis is SCARILY similar to 2008



In 2007, 25 banks had to be bailed out — the single largest bank failure in history.

This was a total of $526 billion over the span of 12 months.

Glenn Beck believes we could now be looking at a repeat of what happened during the 2008 financial crisis.

“In the last five weeks, we have had three U.S. banks fail, and we’re already over the 2007 total by $6 billion.”

On top of this, the Federal Reserve is slated to raise interest rates for the tenth time in over 12 months.

“I know nothing about this stuff,” Beck says, “but I know enough to know you cannot continue to raise interest rates or you will break the back of the economy — but they’re doing it anyway.”

Glenn adds that this isn’t the only thing breaking the back of the economy.

“Our government is borrowing more money, which they then have to print. Far more than you and I are spending at T.J. Maxx, okay? Far more than all of Americans — we went out and we just were on a credit card binge — we wouldn’t make a dent into what the federal government is spending.”

“And yet, we’re going to be the ones paying the price,” Beck warns.

However, the Democrats in the House and the Senate want Congress to raise the debt limit without cutting spending.

“Screw you,” Beck says, “where is my representation?”

“The only thing that can be done with an out-of-control government,” he explains, “is to cut the budgets and bring it back under control. That’s the job of Congress, but they gave that away in 2008.”

Jen Psaki makes alarming confession about Biden's work schedule — and why his early morning speech was surprising



Former White House press secretary Jen Psaki made an eyebrow-raising admission on Monday about her former boss' work schedule.

During an interview on MSNBC, the network where she now works, Psaki reacted to the speech that Biden delivered Monday morning about the collapse of two banks, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. In the interview, Psaki admitted that Biden "does nothing" before 9 a.m.

"It's important to note, President Biden does nothing at 9:00 a.m. He is a night owl," she admitted. "So, the fact that he is doing this at 9:00 a.m., anyway, speaks to how vital the White House recognizes it is for him to have his voice out there."

The confession is noteworthy because Biden, as president of the United States, is the leader of the free world. One would think, therefore, that he has early mornings and late nights.

But a CNN report detailing Biden's work schedule actually corroborates Psaki's admission that Biden rarely works before 9 a.m. The story, however, also contradicts Psaki's claim that Biden is a "night owl."

Biden, according to the CNN story, is "an early-to-bed type."

"[Biden] has established a regular schedule, including coffee in the mornings with the first lady, meetings and phone calls from the Oval Office starting just after 9 a.m. and a return to his residence by 7 p.m.," the report said.

The story continued, "Unlike his most recent predecessors – night owls who spent the dark hours reading briefing materials (President Barack Obama) or watching television (President Donald Trump) – Biden is more of an early-to-bed type."

The Washington Post, moreover, has also reported on the "surreal regimentation that define[s] Biden's days," disclosing the same work schedule as other news outlets.

"The extreme scripting and almost surreal regimentation that define Biden's days, from his arrival in the Oval Office just after 9 a.m. to his brief walk back to the White House residence for dinner with his wife by 7 p.m," the Post reported.

Biden's schedule, the Post admitted, is "notably light," which has led to criticism throughout his presidency.
