# Dem Hypocrisy Alert: Goldman Warns DOJ Probe of Fed Chair Powell Will Tank Our Economy
In a jaw-dropping moment on MSNBC’s Deadline, New York Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman—yes, the same guy who’s been baying for endless lawfare against political foes—declared that the incoming Trump administration’s Department of Justice investigating Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for potential criminal wrongdoing will tank our economy. Goldman’s pearl-clutching came amid reports of a DOJ probe into Powell’s Fed policies, possibly tied to inflation mismanagement or insider dealings that juiced markets while everyday Americans drowned in Biden-era price hikes. It’s rich coming from a party that cheered the DOJ’s weaponization against Trump, his allies, and January 6 participants, but now cries foul when the tables turn on a deep-state darling like Powell. This isn’t just elite panic; it’s a masterclass in selective outrage, exposing how the left views justice as a one-way street—hammer conservatives, shield bureaucrats.
For the 2A community, Goldman’s meltdown is a flashing red light on the road ahead. Remember, this is the same DOJ ecosystem that under Biden pursued ATF’s zero-tolerance pistol brace crackdown, Operation Wide Receiver-style sting operations on gun shops, and endless bump stock litigation to erode your rights without a single vote from Congress. Powell’s Fed indirectly funds this assault by printing trillions that balloon federal budgets, padding ATF’s $1.9 billion war chest for 2025 raids and database expansions. If prosecuting Powell craters the economy—as Goldman hyperbolically warns—it could slash agency funding, hobble Biden holdovers, and create fiscal chaos that stalls gun-grab agendas. Pro-2A patriots should cheer this probe: it’s karmic payback, a chance to defund the deep state, and a reminder that economic accountability hits the anti-rights machine hardest. Trump’s DOJ isn’t just draining the swamp—it’s priming the pump for a Second Amendment resurgence.
The implications ripple further: a humbled Fed means tighter money, curbing the inflation that drove ammo and firearm prices sky-high (AR-15s up 30% since 2020, per industry data). Stay vigilant, stock up, and watch as Goldman’s doomsaying unravels—because a tanked economy under fair justice might just be the reset gun owners need.
