Powell to testify before the Supreme Court to defend the Federal Reserve's independence

PANews January 20 News, according to CNBC and Associated Press reports, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell plans to personally attend a U.S. Supreme Court hearing this Wednesday regarding Trump's attempt to remove Federal Reserve Board member Christopher Waller. This move is rare and is seen as a key battle to defend the independence of the central bank. Previously, Trump accused Waller of loan fraud and sought to remove him; Waller denied any misconduct and filed a lawsuit. If Trump succeeds in removing Waller, he would have the opportunity to control the majority of the Federal Reserve seats. The event occurs amid ongoing criminal investigations involving Powell himself.
