We have seven minutes at the top of the program today to talk about the week gone by.
And I got to tell you, I am not sure it is going to be enough.
Katharine Pell is at MSNOW, also at The Bulwark.
David Gora is at Bloomberg.
Catherine, you get to go first.
The news of the day, of course, in our wheelhouse, as it were, is that the U.S.
attorney for the District of Columbia, Jeanine Pirro, is dropping, and you can't see me, but that's in air quotes, the investigation into the Fed and Chair Powell.
I guess I wonder, first of all, what you make of that.
So, David, let's keep going with that.
The last line of Pirro's tweet this morning, because that's how we do government policy nowadays, is by tweet or true social.
Her last line was, I reserve the right to reopen this investigation.
And I guess, you know, to Catherine's point, is that enough for Tillis, who we think is looking for an off-ramp?
But also, what about Powell, right?
Because let's remember, his term is up as chair on the 15th of May, but he does have the statutory right to stay on the board for another two-ish years.
So we haven't heard from Senator Tillis.
We haven't heard from Jay Powell.
And remember what he said a little while back.
