It has been done forever. The FED raise/lower interest rate by adjusting the amount of cash/bond/other assets to increase/reduce the monetary supply.
 
It would be better if you could hear it in person.

Imagine a D.A. loudly proclaiming,

Q: DO YOU KNOW THAT HE IS A CARD CARRYING MEMBER OF OVER 3 PUBLIC LIBRARIES????

A: Well, no, I didn't

Q: How does that make you feel?

A: I dunno

S/Q: YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HIM AND YOU DON'T KNOW HOW THAT MAKES YOU FEEL?

A: well ..ah..

What they are doing right now is not open market operations. They are printing money - creating money out of thin air to buy treasuries. AKA monetizing our government debt.

NOT GOOD!

They're just tidying up a few loose strings here, Drew. Most of the work is done. The rest is merely detail.

This has been a trap that's been a long time in the making.
 
They're doing exactly what they did in the late 70s.

Long term interest rates have doubled in the last 6 months. Don't be surprised if they go well past 10 percent in the coming years!

Then we'll need another Paul Volker to pull the E-Brake and stop us from sliding off an economic cliff.

These morons keep putting off the pain that WILL come. I swear, they are all alcoholics or junkies.
