Elizabeth Warren

Still holding out for some crafty Dem to set up this pitfall—start by asking about the 2016 and 2024 elections, before circling back to 2020—but Warren's better than most. www.offmessage.net/p/the-fights...

Warren does at one point single out Epstein, but the full question is nuts: Warsh didn’t disclose $100 million hidden behind entities he owns, so are any of those assets owned by the Trump family or the Chinese government, have any of them facilitated money laundering, any set up by Jeffrey Epstein?

Trump’s Fed Chair Pick Dodges One Very Easy Question on Epstein — The New Republic Kevin Warsh, who has appeared in the Epstein files, had a tough time explaining all his undisclosed investments.

Senator: “Do you have investments tied to Epstein?”
Warsh: “I’d rather not say.”
Senator: “That’s yes or no.”
Warsh: “I’ll sell them if confirmed ”.

100M undisclosed, Epstein ties & a job interview for the most powerful economic role on earth.

WARSH PLEDGES INDEPENDENCE BUT DODGES QUESTIONS ON MONETARY POLICY is an actual Bloomberg chyron.

To me, the most interesting thing in today's Warsh hearing wasn't about Warsh at all. It was about the disagreements within the GOP about A.I.

That's a really bad answer from Warsh.

Warsh could have shut up a lot of naysayers about his independence from Trump if he simply answered who won the 2020 election.

He chose not to.

Gallego: "You said…Trump never demanded you cut interest rates in your job interview. Is that your sworn testimony?"

Warsh: "That is."

Gallego: "Someone here is lying then, it's either you or President Trump."

The Fed relies on data and objective reality. Kevin Warsh’s refusal to acknowledge the 2020 election shows he’s more interested in politics than facts.

An independent Fed Chair needs a backbone, not a loyalty pledge. — Warsh is compromised. Hard pass.

Sen. Smith: "Trump said that gas prices are, 'Not very high' and 'we're having some fake inflation because of the fuel'…Do you think the gas prices going up 20% is 'fake inflation?'"

Warsh: "The gas prices…when they move in the wrong direction, the American people are hurting by it."

every single time Warren's name comes up racists use the name of a murdered child as a slur

Warsh: I'll make monetary policy decisions independent of any advice or pressure from President Trump

Also Warsh:

Sen. Warren: "Did Trump lose the 2020 election?"

Kevin Warsh: "Um, we try to keep politics, if I'm confirmed, out of the Federal Reserve."

Warren: "I'm just asking a factual question."

Warsh: "I believe that this body certified that election."

Sen. Warren: "Did Trump lose the 2020 election?"

Kevin Warsh: "Um, we try to keep politics, if I'm confirmed, out of the Federal Reserve."

Warren: "I'm just asking a factual question."

Warsh: "I believe that this body certified that election."

Just now, Fed Chair nominee Warsh LIED UNDER OATH.

A Dem senator quoted a Wall Street Journal article that said Trump asked Warsh in the WH whether he’d drop interest rates.

Warsh said that didn’t happen.

The senator said either Trump or Warsh was lying.

Warsh said the WSJ reporter lied.

Uhhh👇

GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?

WARSH: That is, senator.

GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.

Sen. Alsobrooks: "Will you commit to defending Governor Cook's tenure as Chairman Powell has done?"

Warsh: "I think it's inappropriate for me to weigh in on that."

Failure to answer this simple, direct question from Elizabeth Warren should disqualify Warsh from becoming Chairman of the Federal Reserve

If he can't display independence from Trump on what is an undisputed issue, nobody should believe he will disagree with Trump when dealing with financial policy

Sen. Kennedy: "Have you agreed with the president that you're going to lower interest rates?"

Warsh: "The president never asked me to predetermine, commit, fix, decide on any interest rate decision in any of our discussions, nor would I ever agree to do so."

Warren: "Will you disclose how you divest those assets, or will you just collect the check for $100 million from someone whose whole business is betting on what the Fed will do?"

Warsh: "Ethics officials at the Fed. Reserve and the Office of Government Ethics-"

Warren: "I will take that as a no."

Warsh declines to say whether Biden won 2020 election Kevin Warsh, President Trump’s nominee for chairman of the Federal Reserve, declined to say Tuesday whether former President Biden defeated Trump in the 2020 election.  When asked by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), the ranking member on the Senate Banking Committee, whether Biden won the 2020 election, Warsh replied, “We try to keep politics, if I’m...

Warsh declines to say whether Biden won 2020 election

Sen. Reed: "This morning, President Trump was asked on CNBC, 'Will you be disappointed if your new Fed chair doesn't cut rates…Trump answered, 'I would'…You maintain, you'll be independent of President Trump?"

Warsh: "I do."

It's very funny to see all of the people talking about how academia has become too sensitive and is afraid to have real debates and then Warsh just comes out and basically admits that he'll have to say nice things about the economy because otherwise Trump will fire him
