Trump可能会因利率压力起诉美联储提名人Warsh; Trump may sue Fed nominee Warsh over rate pressures; confirmation delayed amid independence concerns.

财政部长史考特·贝森说特朗普总统将决定是否起诉他的美联储提名人凯文·瓦尔什(Kevin Warsh),如果Warsh抵制削减利率的压力。 Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said President Trump would decide whether to sue Kevin Warsh, his Federal Reserve nominee, if Warsh resists pressure to cut interest rates. 随后特朗普就起诉沃什的笑话发表了评论, The comment followed Trump’s joking remark about suing Warsh, which he later called a joke. 同意强调,决定权在于总统,而不是司法部,在对政治干预的关切之下。 Bessent emphasized the decision rests with the president, not the Justice Department, amid concerns over political interference. 由于司法部对前主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔进行了25亿美元的建筑物翻修调查,促使参议院共和党和民主党推迟对Warsh的确认,直至调查结束,美联储的独立性正受到审查。 The Fed’s independence is under scrutiny due to a Justice Department investigation into former Chair Jerome Powell over a $2.5 billion building renovation, prompting Senate Republicans and Democrats to delay Warsh’s confirmation until the probe concludes.
