This year we will conduct our first thematic stress test on cyber resilience to determine how well 109 banks we supervise would respond to and recover from a cyberattack.
The main findings will be communicated in the summer of 2024.

Victor Davis Hanson: The Optimistic, the Realistic, and the Pessimistic Scenarios for Iran
With the Israel-Iran war stretching into its second week, commentators from all sides of the political arena have been delivering their optimistic, pessimistic, and realistic opinions on the conflict.
Here are the facts:
The war is going in Israel's favor. There’s a 50-50 chance of regime change, but only a 25% chance the new leaders will be better than Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The Trump administration might have to intervene but is holding back because it thinks Israel will find a creative way to destroy Iran's underground nuclear facilities on its own, surmises @VDHanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

Victor Davis Hanson didn’t waste time getting to the heart of the moment.
“We’re in very troubled and chaotic times,” he said.
The signs, as he explained, are everywhere, abroad and at home.
“We’ve got a theater wide war in the Middle East with the Iranian theocracy on the ropes,” Hanson continued.
“We’ve had mass, ‘No Kings’ demonstrations in the United States, and we’ve had a kind of a hysterical reaction to Donald Trump’s, deportation warrants.”
In moments like this, you’d expect the opposition party to step up with ideas—proposals, solutions, a better path.
But, Hanson said, that’s the opposite of what is happening.
“We’re not hearing alternative proposals from the opposition party.”
He pointed to the border crisis as a prime example.
“If you do not want the 12 million who entered the United States illegally under Joe Biden, you might want to issue alternative proposals,” he said.
“Maybe you could say to Donald Trump, well, wait a minute. If people have been here five years and they have no criminal record or they’re gainfully employed, they’re not on any public assistance, can we issue them a green card? Pay a fine?”
His conclusion was simple: “Not hearing any of that.”
So obvious all these political movements like “No Kings” are fake and astroturfed. It’s identically the same model as BLM, funded by billionaires and copy pasted from all previous CIA concocted color revolutions.
@barnes_law The dollar doomed people are dead silent the moment you bring up any data on USD utilization in collateral transactions. The USD is not a currency it is a bridge that allows foreign currencies to be converted into other currencies.
After 2007 did the American economy ever recover? No it was given trillions in subsidies and foreign nations continued to siphon American industry with the help of American politicians and capital elites, so they could earn a quick buck lobbying.
America kicked the 2019 recession down the road, but no one has any memory of how badly the markets needed a reset 5 years ago and it never occurred. Now here it is, 5 years overdue and leveraged to the T.
We are streamlining HHS to make our agency more efficient and more effective. We will eliminate an entire alphabet soup of departments, while preserving their core functions by merging them into a new organization called the Administration for a Healthy America or AHA. This overhaul will improve the health of the entire nation — to Make America Healthy Again.
The single most powerful metric by which any civilization grows and develops is abundant, affordable, and transmissible energy.
Everything else is secondary.
