It's been interesting watching Republicans bail on the Trump shitshow.

FED Chairman Jerome Powell Attempts to Evade Legal Accountability by Hiding Behind His Office
January 12, 2026 | Sundance
Regardless of how you feel about the Federal Reserve Board, I think we would all agree the construct of an autonomous central bank is outside the boundaries of our constitutional framework. Factually, the Sea Island financial group set up the Federal Reserve as a system of control over the U.S. economy that was completely unnecessary.
That same ultra-constitutional mindset of omnipotent power permeates the recent statements by FED Chair Jerome Powell who now attempts to evade a Dept of Justice investigation by hiding behind the ruse of his non-elected office. Last year facing ridiculous cost overruns, congress questioned Powell over the insane spending proposal by Powell for a new office building.
Chairman Powell characterized the construction changes that escalated the cost of the project from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion as ‘minor modifications.’ That’s $2.5 billions of taxpayer money. A referral to the Dept of Justice was made following Powell’s testimony. Things got ugly quickly when President Trump, a builder and renovator himself, took exception with the scale and scope of the ridiculous spending plan.
In an effort to both use his office as a defense, and simultaneously weaponize the power of his position, Jerome Powell waits until Sunday evening to announce he is being investigated by the DOJ and then he claims it is political targeting.

This was so funny to watch when Powell handed DJT the invoice paperwork and Trump just about laughed looking at it.

It’s been interesting watching uniparty establishment GOPe RINOs now publicly bail on the Trump shitshow, after intending to, and working to, sabotage him from day-one. Going after the Fed chair just because you don’t agree with him isn’t winning Trump any new voters. Even the stupid people are starting to see through his bullshite.

End the Fed
That would have overwhelming support from Americans. Any chance that "our" representatives would ever draft such legislation?

Look at Mr. True Conservative overlook wasteful spending just because he has TDS.
You are running defense for a $2b grift renovation, because you can't control your feelings. Don't ever complain about spending again.
