We’re in the home stretch. With Election Day a little more than a week away, Walter and I have a lot to talk about.
Will this be a Halloween-themed episode? Well, this clip of Janet Yellen’s speech last week suggests that the Treasury Department may be haunted by the ghost of the U.S. dollar. We’ll discuss our theories tonight.
Please join us at 8:00 PM ET for another Monday installment of America This Week.

Hi Matt - off topic but crucially important. This morning citizen journalist - Tommy Robinson - of Great Britain was sentenced to 9 months of solitary confinement in Belmarsh prison for "contempt of court" for sharing a documentary with the public that the courts forbade. This man is a warrior for truth and for justice and his story is an inspiration for advocates of free speech. It would be wonderful if you could look into his current circumstances in light of your current reporting of censorship by European governments - https://www.rebelnews.com/tommy_robinson_sentenced_to_18_months_in_prison_will_serve_9
Walter, there's a growing chorus of regular readers wanting to know about the "horrifying picture" in the background when you're at home in Montana.
Guesses include elephant, the aforementioned "[non-specifically] horrifying picture", or my impression, which is an upside-down dead flamingo with its feet in the air next to an otter diving from a tree into the bog.
I'm seriously considering starting a betting pool...
Readers, reply with your best guess 🤔
