The DOJ is criminally investigating Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair who controls global money supply, over construction cost overruns on asbestos removal at Fed headquarters. Central bank chiefs from 14 countries just did something they never do—issued a joint statement defending Powell and warning that attacking Fed independence threatens economic stability worldwide. Markets are already selling off the dollar because if a President can launch criminal probes against the Fed Chair for not cutting rates on command, no institution is actually independent anymore.
