He did it in 2020 to ask for money in 2024? LOL!
No, really, why would he do it?
Tell the truth.

Why would giving Biden more money to escort illegals into the country fix the problem?
Pretty much. Your competitors need to go along with you or else you will lose busines.

Contractors Accuse Lumber Suppliers of Price Fixing in Lawsuit over Soaring Costs
As the sharp increase in lumber prices continues to affect American contractors, 3 parties are alleging a conspiracy of price-gouging.
Now this one really caught my eye. Lumber has been overcoming a multitude of issues due to high demands, globally, for lumber products due to various things like wars, weather, covid, etc., off and on for some time.
Exporting lumber creates supply issues everywhere also. Now lumber is crashing due to low home starts.
It's a supply and demand problem, not a conspiracy.
Here's a few lines from your article:
The allegations further note that the belief in conspiracy is rooted in the idea that “each [manufacturer] likely had to confirm with each other in some capacity” due to the seemingly coordinated timing of the rise in prices.
__________________________
National Association of Realtors chief economist Lawrence Yun noted how much of a negative impact the pandemic has had on lumber production on May 6, 2021 — sawmills struggled with health restrictions and ramped down production in fear of a market crash, eventually leading to the closure of a number of sawmills around the country.
“There was a great fear among sawmills to prepare for a downturn,” Lawrence said when speaking about the beginning of the pandemic. “When home buying surged, they could not open up capacity quickly enough.”
This impact hasn’t just been limited to the United States, either. Levelset’s Tom Scalisi pointed out in September 2020 that the majority of US lumber comes from Canada, with a significant amount also being imported from China and Germany — all countries that suffered significant setbacks from restrictions around the pandemic.

I remember reading where sheet products were terribly scarce during and after the pandemic and companies were hiring due to mass retirements during and after the lock downs.
Again, supply and demand. I doubt the lawsuits will be successful.
No need for govt intervention here, either.
And the useful idiots eyes have glazed over while they swoon in the streets.
Does it have to be an election?
Bill Ayres, friend of Obama was linked to this. If I recall, on J6, no one bombed the capitol.
