You surely know better than me but my recollection is that an emergency can be terminated by a vote of Congress. The president can then veto that, and the usual 2/3 of Congress are then needed to overrule. I quickly checked on Wikipedia to confirm. So indeed Biden would have a significant range of options here!

If Biden capitulated on Palestine, why not here?

Ok, so he won't because it would be the final nail in the coffin in domestic terms. But with right wing msm it is what will be played out, like the disruptions on the Voice.

btw, noted the reserve bank article in the grauniad, tried to post it to Twitter but don't think it got though for some reason.
