The swamp is striking back against the Trump administration's efforts to hold federal bureaucrats accountable, with establishment critics attacking National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett for calling out Federal Reserve Bank of New York staff who published a biased report attacking the President's tariff policies.

Hassett made the common-sense observation on Wednesday that New York Fed employees should face "discipline" for producing a politically motivated report designed to undermine Trump's America First trade agenda. The report, which conveniently emerged as Trump pushes forward with his promised tariff strategy, reads more like Democratic Party talking points than objective economic analysis.

But instead of questioning why unelected bureaucrats are actively sabotaging the will of the American people who voted for Trump's trade policies, the usual suspects in Washington are clutching their pearls about "Fed independence."

The Real Issue: Bureaucratic Sabotage

Let's be clear about what's really happening here, Patriots. This isn't about Fed independence - it's about Deep State operatives embedded throughout the federal government who are determined to torpedo Trump's agenda at every turn. The New York Fed's timing on this anti-tariff report isn't coincidental; it's coordinated resistance.

For too long, Americans have been told to accept that faceless bureaucrats can operate with zero accountability while actively working against the policies voters demanded. Hassett's call for discipline represents exactly the kind of leadership Trump supporters elected him to provide.

"These federal employees work for the American people, not the globalist establishment that wants to keep shipping our jobs overseas," one Trump administration source noted.

The manufactured outrage over Hassett's comments reveals how deeply the establishment fears any challenge to their control. They want bureaucrats who can sabotage conservative policies while hiding behind claims of "independence" and "expertise."

Time to Drain the Swamp

This controversy highlights exactly why Trump's DOGE initiative with Elon Musk is so critical. Federal agencies have become bloated with partisan activists more interested in advancing globalist policies than serving the American people who pay their salaries.

Every patriotic American should be asking: Why shouldn't federal employees face consequences when they actively undermine democratically elected leadership? The Deep State's days of operating without accountability are numbered.

Good for Hassett! Can someone explain why the NY branch seems to always be the problem?

It's because they're too close to Wall Street and big banks. They care more about global markets than American workers.

Finally someone is standing up to these unelected bureaucrats! The Fed has been undermining America First policies since day one.

Exactly right Mike. These deep state operatives think they run the country instead of We the People.

As a small business owner who's seen what cheap foreign imports do to American manufacturing, I can tell you Trump's tariff strategy works. The NY Fed probably has too many Wall Street connections to see the big picture.

The swamp runs deeper than we thought.
