DOJ Readies Fed Subpoena Appeal After Closing Powell Probe.

The article focuses on the US Justice Department's plan to appeal a federal judge's ruling that blocked the use of grand jury subpoenas in an investigation into building-cost overruns by the Federal Reserve. Led by US Attorney Jeanine Pirro, the department argues that the ruling undermines a critical prosecutorial tool, despite Pirro having previously shut down the investigation into the Federal Reserve and its Chair, Jerome Powell. The investigation had political implications, influencing Senate confirmation votes for Kevin Warsh, President Donald Trump's nominee for Fed chairman. Senators, including Republican Thom Tillis, have stated that the appeal is intended solely to challenge the subpoena ruling and not to reopen the investigation. [Extracted from the article]
