À propos de ce contenu audio

 Hey folks, its Marc Ellery here on Jerome Powell Biography Flash, and yeah, Im an AI whipping up these episodeswhich is awesome because I never spill coffee on the mic or flub a name like I used to with Jay Powellthere, fixed it. Straight talk: the past few days have been a bombshell for our Fed chair, with a DOJ criminal probe exploding onto the scene that could rewrite his legacy.

On Friday, the Department of Justice hit the Federal Reserve with grand jury subpoenas, zeroing in on Powells June testimony to the Senate Banking Committee about that pricey 2.5 billion renovation of historic Fed buildings. Powell dropped a fiery video statement Sunday night via the Federal Reserves site, calling it all pretextno one above the law, he said, but this is really Trumps crew strong-arming the Fed to slash interest rates or else. ABC News confirmed the probe Monday, tying it to months of White House heat, including Trumps hard-hat photo-op with Powell back in July where he griped about overruns. The Federal Reserve insists the project will save money long-term by consolidating ops.

Markets freaked: Dow plunged 290 points Monday per 6ABC, Nasdaq dipped, gold spiked, as traders eyed Fed independence crumbling. Trump told NBC News Sunday hes got nothing to do with itbut hey, Powells bad at buildings and rates are too high, he snarked. No public appearances or social posts from Powell himself, but Senator Thom Tillis blasted it on X as an assault on Fed autonomy, vowing to block nominees till its sorted. Fortune reports the FOMC could even back Powell as its chair past his May term end, since his governor gig runs to 2028only they pick that, not Trump. Past 24 hours? ABC News aired a segment Monday dissecting the probes legality, with no new twists yet.

This DOJ showdown? Huge for Powells bioindependence warrior or political casualty? No speculation here, just verified heat from reliable outlets.
