(Zero Hedge)—US retail traders are panicking this AM after likely receiving push notifications on their smartphones about market turmoil in Asia and Europe, which has since spread to the US premarket. Now that the cash session is about 15 minutes underway, website monitor DownDector reports outages are emerging across several major US brokerage houses as everyone tries to log into their accounts and sell stocks.
DownDector reports that users of Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Ameritrade, Vanguard, and E-Trade are all reporting website outages, which have been surging around the start of the US cash session.

🚨 https://t.co/wGXe2KE5ya, formerly ThinkorSwim, shows a "technical problem" and is already preventing trades, while Robinhood has halted trading on their site. These financial institutions are protecting their rigged and corrupt legacy systems. It's time for change! pic.twitter.com/NsYnxr59ML

Weird. I can't log on to my brokerage account to buy more $TSLA. Tried multiple times. Something tells me this is not by accident looking at how red the market is today.

Anyone else unable to log into their brokerage account?

@CharlesSchwab won’t even let me log into my account. Have to appreciate the flimsy infrastructure of these brokerage firms on days where it’s most critical to have eyes on your portfolio and be in a position to take action that best fits your own needs. #crash

Hmmm.
They solved the problem. You cannot dump your stocks if you cannot log in.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
