Yesterday, the impeachment took another step towards the Senate, when the House voted to advance the two articles of impeachment to trial.
It’s coming and it’s happening during an election year. This is a very unique time in American politics, to say the least.
There are many moving parts here and it will be truly fascinating to see how the public reacts and follows these issues, at the same time as the Phase 1 deal taking effect and with the president’s economic advisor, Larry Kudlow, PURPOSELY leaking or teasing, as I see it, a Tax Cut 2.0 later this year.

Is this a scary-looking chart or what?
There’s no massive war or terrible crisis happening, yet central banks have put a chokehold on markets. In England, Japan, the European Union, in the states and around the globe, there is too much debt (compared with GDP) on the central bank and government level.
