Trump’s likely response: Throws a temper tantrum with a midnight posting spree, the *impotent* and *flailing* *bully* that he is.

Out of everyone afraid to stand up to Trump a little old man rises to the challenge.
You love to see it even if it’s weird af.

Can you imagine the inflation rate if interest rates were lowered?

The Fed is supposed to be independent for a reason. The moment presidents start firing chairs over rate decisions they don’t like, we’ve got a much bigger problem than inflation.

Bro, watching the government fight with itself is the peak 2026 experience. Like, we just want to be able to afford rent and groceries, and these guys are playing high-stakes musical chairs with the Fed seats. At least Powell staying on provides some kind of guardrail against the absolute chaos. It is definitely a weird flex, but I guess it is better than the alternative.

Finally someone with a spine instead of resigning in protest.

I’m missing a part of this, can someone explain?
He’s staying on the board, but he won’t be chair. Since there’s no new spot on the board, Trump’s new appointee can’t step in, right?
But now… who will be chair? He said he’s not going to be a ‘shadow chair’, so that means it will be someone else. Is it just going to be someone else already on the board now?

That is how it is done, you stay and fight, not resign and leave the spot for the puppet.

Gotta love “fiscal conservatives” trying to railroad a guy for not giving out rate cuts like candy to bail out the President during high times of inflation that he caused with his tariff Ponzi scheme. Good for Jerome.

Powell has done an incredible job over the years considering the shit show that is our current government. I’m glad he’s staying on, we need him desperately.
