Powell shouldn't 'be chairman of the Federal Reserve,' says Warren

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, tells Chuck Todd that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has "two jobs," to deal with monetary policy and regulation, and "he has failed at both."

How dare he raise the rates to deal with the inflation we caused by our reckless spending 😡😡💀

[derekrestivo-vmpk]

Hard to conduct monetary policy when her and her colleagues fiscal policy decisions are completely out of control. Her political decisions regarding covid lockdowns indirectly caused all of this. She is on the wrong side of history on both accounts.

we don't need lawyers making decisions on interest rates

What does Warren know about banking? Doesn't she trade with beads and trinkets?

You know you are in trouble when NBC throws you under the bus.😂

Liz is such a coward. If you think that JP should be fired just say so.

I can’t stand her - almost as much as Trump. Sometimes there’s only two bad choices, and she’s going to complain regardless.

[saranya]

She is nuts . She shouldn’t be a senator. She wants zirp so her real estate business will prosper

It’s just an opinion. Get over it.
And by the way, inflation is pretty bad. Keeping inflation down IS part of his mandate. He hasn’t succeeded so far, correct?

[vesuvious]

You can't fire the head of fed it's called board of governors for a reason. SMH. Papa Powell is god.

What a relief that this women didn't become President. I think Jerome Powell is doing a fantastic job. Americans need to stop buying crap they don't need and start saving money. You're gonna need it to survive when this upcoming and very necessary recession hits.

[godprotector]

Jerome Powell should quit for not even knowing the bank crisis until it really happened. Why could a good economy not have a low unemployment rate and an acceptable inflation rate ？

[njva]

It's long time overdue for Lizzy to shut up about Powell and go after Trump who is the real villain.

[pepsicherry]

First create the problem than pretend fixing the problem. "Elisabeth Warren, Tsu Jing The art of War, 2023".

[metamoney]

Jerome Powell isn’t tasked with either of those

[billboyd]

Put Janet Yellen back in. She's totally clueless and encourages washington politicians to spend spend spend!!!

[athena]

Powell just throwing gasoline on a fire when he thought it was the extinguisher.

[richtran]

Powell should go so that BTC can rocket and I can retire wealthy!

[mikebelnap]

Pocohantas please look at the smoke signals and tell us what they mean

[rsaathoff]
