Justice Department ends probe of Jerome Powell, clears path for Kevin Warsh
The Justice Department ended its criminal probe of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro announced, removing a major legal hurdle to President Trump's nominee Kevin Warsh's confirmation as Fed chair. The wind-down could resolve an impasse after Senator Thom Tillis had stalled Warsh's nomination pending the investigation, though the Senate has not yet confirmed Warsh. Pirro said the office is closing the criminal inquiry while a separate audit of a Federal Reserve construction project requested by Powell continues, and officials released no immediate findings. The move matters because it lets the Senate advance Warsh's nomination and could determine WHO leads the central bank and its policy direction.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren: "Anyone who believes Donald Trump's corrupt scheme to take over the Fed is over is fooling themselves. The Senate should not proceed with the nomination of Kevin Warsh."
Candace3Thank you Senator Elizabeth Warren is a fierce, brilliant fighter with integrity. She could have been president. Things would be incredibly better. Nope, US had to have a white male.
AMPTsuper3Sure seems like a withdrawal for a purpose and then easy peasy to start up again after they get what they want. And wasn't there a caveat attached to that withdrawal? @warren.senate.gov bsky.app/profile/macf...
NEW: Jeanine Pirro announced that the US Department of Justice would end its criminal investigation of Jerome Powell, clearing the obstacle that has stalled Kevin Warsh’s confirmation as his successor. www.wsj.com/economy/cent...
Susanne 25th for 474There never was any evidence of wrongdoing on Powell's part. Trump just ordered a baseless investigation. A Trump sycophant asked him how fast do you want lower interest rates and he Trump said June 26. SMH
lyndapole4That’s the only reason that she did it.
Skip hop jump 🍀💮🐳🐚🐸🐾3Jerome Powell hasn't broken any laws or regulations. Trump is big mad at him because when Trump said "jump" Jerome Powell wouldn't ask "how high"? NGL, it brings a tear to my eye to watch Powell run intellectual circles around Trump. It's so entertaining and 600% heartwarming.💜👏👏
Huntley Haverstock3They found out it wasn't Biden but Trump who appointed Powell
JustJoe20243Every day is taco Tuesday now
NotafanofFacism2Tillis walks away with his pretend morals intact, we get stuck with a Fed Chair installed to do Trump’s bidding and Pirro will restart the investigation based on bullshit “new evidence.“
Breaking News: The Justice Department dropped its criminal investigation into Jerome Powell, the chair of the Federal Reserve. The inquiry had been a roadblock to the confirmation of President Trump’s pick to be the next Fed chair, Kevin Warsh.
frugalman.bsky.social7Don’t trust the slimy DOJ under the Trump regime. They will get Warsh confirmed and then reopen the investigation! Wait for it!

JJ Gittes3Wasn’t a “prosecution”, but a “persecution”.
Allan Schlosser2The "case" against Fed Chairman Powell was bullfeathers from the get-go.
The move clears the way for Kevin Warsh, Trump’s pick to replace Powell, to advance toward a Senate approval.
Monde Boeuf6Trump will re-open the vendetta probe the minute after Warsh is confirmed.
OryxcrakeInCanada3Who are the advisors (singular or plural) telling Trump that everything he is doing are good ideas, or not good ideas. He isn’t smart enough to figure out anything for himself, and doesn’t really care about outcomes unless it means $$. Is $ the one and only motivator?
