Well, if you believe the stuff you have posted you have surely hedged your bets already and moved at least a sizeable amount of your investments to long-term T-bills (or your preferred safe-haven). It's an easy answer and honestly, I'd respect your post if you have gone beyond the normal age-related balancing of equities as it demonstrates that you truly belief a crash is coming.

Of course it's a highly individual thing, but my temperament is such that I never let my short- or medium-term guesses at what the stock market might do drive my investment decisions. And that's doubly true when all the "experts" are making what amounts to politically-based prognostications. I also don't try to pick individual stocks (nor hire someone to pick individual stocks for me). I couldn't even state what my overall allocation is off the top of my head. I retired early and right before I did so I did position myself as conservatively as I'd ever been, around 60/40, since I had more than 10 years to bridge before SS, with the intent of just letting my equities allocation drift upward (hopefully) over time. That pre-retirement move appears to have been unnecessary despite getting hit with the pandemic market sag and the appearance of relatively high inflation within months of shutting off the paycheck spigot. Mostly that's because I've found that walking around tossing $50-dollar bills on the ground behind me everywhere I went wasn't necessary to fill the "void" left by shutting down a "career".
IMO, what ultimately matters most is the so-called SWAN factor. If you're not sleeping well at night because you're worried about your money, you're invested wrong.
If we just get flight logs, that means nothing.
It all means nothing if no one pays the price for what they did. I have zero confidence anyone will be charged.
