Nothing "criminal" here. Powell does not see
quite the same economic picture as Trump, that's
the whole of it.

This fight has been going on since Andrew Jackson.
Trump clearly wants to effectively nuke the Federal
Reserve using backdoor, rather than legislative,
means.

Trump can get carried away ...

So can most pols, but Trump's personality
makes it more obvious.

Powell is outta there pretty soon anyway.

He wants a sugar high for the economy before the November elections, he doesn't give a crap about what happens after that.

We're doomed if Bessent gets in there and does a lot of damage, he's a complete idiot.

Exactly. He's even said as much.

So is Smilin' Kevin Hasset, another contender. Luckily it's a
board that makes the decision... I hope.

FRB is designed to be mostly independent of the president. This lets it
reduce the economy when the president prefers to risk inflation.

Powell is outta there pretty soon anyway.

And the Senate?

Bessent:

Treasury Cancels Contracts with Booz Allen Hamilton

rCLPresident Trump has entrusted his cabinet to root out waste,
fraud, and abuse, and canceling these contracts is an
essential step to increasing AmericansrCO trust in government,rCY
said Secretary Bessent. rCLBooz Allen failed to implement
adequate safeguards to protect sensitive data, including the
confidential taxpayer information it had access to through its
contracts with the Internal Revenue Service.rCY

Say what!!!??? You mean to say Booz Allen's "donation" to Trump's
ballroom didn't protect the company?

This was done "because" somebody leaked Trump's tax numbers, and
more.
