Sorry you're poor and don’t have access to the WSJ. Here is the quote when asked why he was pushing Powell so hard for lower rates, “You can't pay amortization when he's raising interest rates, OK?”

“You can't pay amortization when he's raising interest rates, OK?”
When the Fed raises the Fed funds rate, it results in the commercial banks raising their prime lending rates. It has almost no impact on long term government debt rates as seen by the current ten-year bond rate being considerably LOWER than the overnight Fed funds rate.
Are you really that stupid??
