I hope it's not the way we're going to select them in the future.
And it makes a mockery of Federal Reserve independents.
If you asked me this yesterday, I would have said he will leave the board as previous chairs have.
Now I'm wondering, I mean, I haven't talked to him about this, but I'm wondering now if he will try to hang on there to preserve what little independence the Fed maintains.
You'll have noticed that Tom Tillis has suggested he won't allow any more Fed confirmations
until this legal matter is over.
So we may be waiting on that.
We will see.
My pleasure.
Thanks.
Very glad to be here, Kai.
Well, they've been expecting something for a long time.
I don't think they expected this.
I mean, this is a serious attack on the Federal Reserve in general.
I want to emphasize that.
And of course, Powell in particular.
They've probably been expecting something because Trump has been on a tirade against Powell and the Fed for quite a long time, as you know.
Well, I think there's a threat of legal action.
I heard the word criminal mentioned.
Not sure what that could possibly mean, but it doesn't much matter to Trump and his DOJ.
