About this episode

The episode discusses the closure of the criminal investigation into Jerome Powell and the implications of political maneuvering by Trump and Jeanine Pirro.

DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro has announced she's closing the criminal investigation into Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. But she also announced that she can reopen it in the future. Given that Republican Senator Thom Tills has announced that he will not confirm Trump's replacement for Powell until the DOJ's investigation of Powell has concluded, this seems like a transparent and cynical ploy by Trump and Pirro to placate Sen. Tillis. Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
